Ne-Yo recorded the 2013 hit “Let Me Love You (Until You Learn to Love Yourself).”
The song was released in 2012 as the mainstream lead single from Ne-Yo’s fifth studio album, R.E.D. Its reputation as a 2013 hit reflects its continuing chart presence and international popularity rather than its original release date. Ne-Yo’s performance combines R&B vocals with synth-pop and Europop production.
The chorus was co-written by Australian singer-songwriter Sia, along with Ne-Yo and several other writers. Norwegian production team Stargate helped shape the polished dance-pop sound, while British producers Mark Hadfield and Mike Di Scala also received production credits.
The track reached number six on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and became Ne-Yo’s fifth U.K. number-one single. The music video emphasized choreography and drew comparisons to Michael Jackson’s performance style. A frequent mistake is identifying Sia as the recording artist because of her songwriting role; Ne-Yo is the vocalist credited with recording the hit.
