# Love Unlimited (Dreams Come True album)

Love Unlimited∞ (stylized as "LOVE UNLIMITED∞") is the eighth studio album by Japanese band Dreams Come True. It was released in Japan and throughout Asia on April 1, 1996, through Epic Records Japan, ultimately being their last album released under the label. The record's lyrics were entirely written by Miwa Yoshida herself, while the song's compositions were handled by her alongside bandmates Takahiro Nishikawa and Masato Nakamura. Musically, Love Unlimited∞ is a pop and R&B album and lyrically focuses on themes of love. Two music videos are included on the CD-EXTRA of the Japanese version only. They are not included on the local versions sold in Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc. The slogan on the obi is, as the title suggests, "Love has no limits."
A commercial success, Love Unlimited∞ became their sixth consecutive chart-topping album in Japan, debuting at number one on the Oricon Albums Chart and becoming the eighth most popular album of the year. It stayed on the chart for 24 weeks, including ten weeks in the top ten, and was their fifth consecutive effort to sell over two million copies nationwide. To promote this album, the concert tour DREAMS COME TRUE CONCERT TOUR '96 LOVE UNLIMITED∞ was held.

## Background

Love Unlimited∞ spawned 2 singles. The lead single, "Love Love Love," is the group's most successful single on the Oricon Singles Chart to date and became a cultural phenomenon. Serving as the theme song to the TBS dorama Aishiteiru to Itte Kure, it was the best-performing single in Japan in 1995 and is now the tenth best-selling Japanese single in history with a staggering 2,489,000 copies sold throughout its chart life. The second single, "Romance," was also a commercial success, topping the Oricon chart and has since been certified Double Platinum. The track "Jyuugatsu Nanaka, Hare" was the theme song to the movie of the same name. A music video was made for the song, but it has never been released as a commercial single.
