"Gravity of Love" is a 1999 song created by the musical group Enigma. The single was the first of two released from the album The Screen Behind the Mirror.
The song features guest vocals by Ruth-Ann Boyle of the British band Olive and has samples from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. The beat in the song originally came from Led Zeppelin's rendition of "When the Levee Breaks", which was also used in the song Return to Innocence.
In the music video for the song, which is set in the 1930s, a masquerade ball is being held in a mansion, while passion starts to run high for some of the participants. The video is filmed on location in Vienna, Austria. The director for the video is Thomas Job. The setting is reminiscent of the 1961 film L'année dernière à Marienbad and some scenes from Stanley Kubricks swansong, 1999 film Eyes Wide Shut.
