"Love Me" is the fifth and final single from Tracie Spencer's second album, Make the Difference. The single was released on February 4, 1992. It was written by Fil Brown and Tony Robinson. Like "Tender Kisses," "Love Me" is a ballad. The theme of the song focuses on Tracie asking someone to love her.

[edit] Chart information

"Love Me" did relatively well on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart, where it hit #2. It didn't do as well on The Billboard Hot 100, where it hit #48.

[edit] Music video

The video version of the song is slightly different from the album version. The love interest in the video was played by Ray Leonard Jr., son of boxer Sugar Ray Leonard. It features some of the same couples from the "Tender Kisses" video and is interestingly enough filmed in the same way as "Tender Kisses" as far as appearance and the general look of sadness. One scene focuses on a man, unconscious, who has a door on his chest indicating the door to his heart. A woman standing over him has a window on her chest, and reaches into the window to retrieve and flower and places it into the doorway on the man's chest.
