"If You Love Someone" is the second single by Australian pop duo The Veronicas’ self-titled third studio album. The track was released on November 21, 2014. The track was co-written by Anthony Egizii and David Musumeci along with The Veronicas' twins Lisa Origliasso and Jessica Origliasso and Josh Katz.

The Veronicas released "You Ruin Me" as the lead single from their self-titled third studio album in September 2014. The song came two years after their last single, "Lolita", was released via their former label Warner Bros. Records. "You Ruin Me" became their second Australian number-one hit and was certified triple platinum. "If You Love Someone", along with "Teenage Millionaire", was written and recorded after the Origliasso twins parted ways with Warner Bros. Records and signed with Sony Music Australia. In an interview with Kathy McCabe of News.com.au, Jessica commented on this saying, "They were written when we had just signed with Sony and because we were in such a positive space, we wrote a couple of genuinely happy songs."

Prior to the release of the song, a promotional track from The Veronicas titled "Line of Fire" was released with media outlets suggesting that it would be the follow-up single to "You Ruin Me". However, on 5 November 2014, "If You Love Someone" debuted on Australian radio show Shazam Top 20 where it was revealed as the second single from The Veronicas.

"If You Love Someone" received mixed to positive reviews. Popjustice referred to "If You Love Someone" as "a song that is obviously quite brilliant" and awarded it eight stars out of ten. The Herald Sun's Cameron Adams named the track, along with "You Ruin Me", "the most promising thing about [The Veronicas]" Similarly, Elizabeth Rushton of The Mancunoin called the "fist pumping single" a highlight from the album.Digital Spy writer Lewis Corner awarded the track three stars out of five and commented that overall it, "rarely fails to put a spring in your step." Tim Byron of The Guardian felt that the track "reeks of a tired formula that the Origliasso sisters have clearly outgrown." The Music's James d'Apice opined that the recording lacked originality, and described the track as "watery, Pink-derived noughties power pop." In his review of the track for Fortitude Magazine, Tom Jewitt wrote that "If You Love Someone" is, "a piece of music which is vastly un-identical to the rest of their repertoire. ‘If You Love Someone’ is lukewarm at its best, and excruciatingly tawdry at its worst," and gave it three stars out of ten.
