"Love Guaranteed" is a song by British R&B group Damage, released on 10 March 1997 by Big Life as the fourth single from the band's debut album, Forever (1997). The song peaked at No. 7 on the UK Singles Chart and was the band's second single to have been produced by Cutfather & Joe, which was remixed for its release as a single. The music video features the band performing the song wearing suits, against a backdrop which could possibly represent a wedding reception or party. Actor Sir Christopher Lee stars in the music video guiding the band through different settings in time.
Gavin Reeve from Smash Hits gave "Love Guaranteed" four out of five, commenting, "Smooth. Cooooool. Yes indeed, Damage are a band with the 'oo' factor. The band that wooed thousands while supporting Boyzone will go a slippin' and a slidin' up the charts with this classy performance. Vocals that nibble your neck and soothe your troubled 'soul', lyrics that promise that whatever you need, Damage can give it to you..." [2]
