"You Know I Love You, Don't You?" came off One to One, Howard Jones's third studio album, in 1986, a new wave love song whose title turns a declaration into a question. Jones wrote it, sings it and plays the keyboards, with Arif Mardin producing and Kevin Killen engineering and mixing.

In Britain it broke his streak: it was the first Howard Jones single to miss the UK Top 40, stalling at 43, though the rival Network Chart had it at 34. America was kinder, sending it to number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100.
