"The Way That You Love Me" is a song by Australian singer songwriter Vera Blue, released in July 2019 as the third single from her forthcoming third studio album. Prior to the songs premier on Triple J Vera Blue said "It feels very different; A new phase, new story, new vibe for me.". She said "When you love someone in your life or someone loves you, whether its friendship, family, or a lover, sometimes you can treat that person badly and not realise it... It's a weird way of loving someone."[1] Co-write Andy Mak said "Emotionally we wanted to create a sense of tension and unease, like something isn't quite right in the world. It felt right to support that with tough beats, dark synths, choirs."[1]
The song has peaked at number 30 on the New Zealand Hot Singles chart.[2]
Laura English from Music Feeds said "It has a rushed tempo and an upbeat sound that's juxtaposed by dark lyrics" calling the song "catchy AF".[3]
Nic Kelly from Project U described the song as "One of her most soaring choruses ever precedes a frenetic, cooked breakdown packed with sharp drums and dirty synths." calling it "extremely good."[4]
