"Love You More" is a song by English boy band JLS from their second studio album, Outta This World. The band co-wrote the song with Toby Gad (who also helmed production) and Wayne Hector. It was released as the band's second single from the album on 12 November 2010. The track serves as the official Children in Need charity single for 2010. "Love You More" debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart on 21 November 2010, making it JLS's fourth number-one single. The video for the song premiered on the group's YouTube channel on 1 October 2010.
JLS recorded the track for inclusion on their second studio album, Outta This World. The band stated that the track was not originally intended to be released as a single, however, after being asked to release 2010's official Children in Need single, they believed that no other tracks from the album would be suitable. The band officially announced the single following rumours that they would themselves be doing some special fundraising for the event. The band have agreed to waive all royalties on the track, with 100% of profits and sales being donated to Children In Need. They describe the song as "a soulful ballad, which involves us demonstrating smooth R&B vocals with tender, heartfelt lyrics".
The video for "Love You More" (directed by Sanji) was shot months in advance of its release, in August 2010 in Los Angeles, California. Shot entirely in black and white, it shows the band dressed in winter clothes, singing to camera in a deserted bar and on Venice Beach at sunset. Individual teasers of the video were released over a week on the band's YouTube channel in late September 2010, before the full video was premiered on the Friday, coinciding with their announcement that the song would be released for Children In Need on BBC Radio 1's The Chris Moyles Show, where the song received its first ever radio play.
