"Trust Your Love" is a song recorded by Japanese singer-songwriter Kumi Koda and was used as the second single from her debut album Affection (2002). It was released on May 9, 2001 via Rhythm Zone in two physical editions: a CD single and 12" vinyl. Additionally, Sounday and Orpheus Records distributed the song in North America with the same formats, but was remixed as a dance number by Hex Hector. The song was written by Kumi herself, whilst composing and production was handled by Kikuchi Kazuhito and Max Matsuura respectively. Musically, it is an R&B song that incorporates synthesizers and keyboards, and describes two lovers believing in each other.
"Trust Your Love" received positive reviews from music critics, who commended its production and selected it among others as one of her best releases. Commercially, while it did fare better than her debut "Take Back", it performed moderately nevertheless, peaking at #18 on the Oricon Singles Chart. In the United States, it reached the top spot on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Singles Sales - a distinction as a Japanese artist - and entered the top 50 on both the Dance Club Songs and Hot 100 Single Sales chart.
An accompanying music video was directed by Ken Sueda, where it depicted the singer in the winter tundra, caved in between icebergs. Several scenes features her with two back-up dancers from her single "Take Back". In order to promote it up its release, Kumi would sing at local karaoke bars. During her first concert tours, she also included the recording. Since its release, there have been several remixes of the single, most recently on her Driving compilations.
