(1967)"Love Is Here and Now You're Gone" is a1967 number-one hit single recorded byThe Supremes for theMotown label. Written and produced by Motown's main production teamHolland-Dozier-Holland , "Love Is Here and Now You're Gone" was the number-one song on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart for one week, fromMarch 4 toMarch 11 1967 .The song, which depicts a relationship in the beginning stages of breakup ("You persuaded me to love you/And I did/But instead of tenderness/I found heartache instead"), features several spoken sections from lead singer
Diana Ross , who delivers her dialogue in a dramatic, emotive voice. Matching the song's drama influences is an instrumental track, featuring a prominentharpsichord and strings, which recalls both aHollywood film score andThe Left Banke 's recently popularized "Baroque rock.""Love is Here" was primarily recorded in
Los Angeles, California , thousands of miles away from Motown's regularHitsville USA recording studio, because Holland-Dozier-Holland wanted a different feel for the record than the typical Supremes sound. LyricistEddie Holland names "Love is Here" as his favorite Supremes song.A number-one hit on both the US pop and R&B charts, it was also a #6 hit in the United World Chart. "Love Is Here and Now You're Gone" was the second single from the Supremes' album "
