"Love Will Keep Us Together" is a popular song written by Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield in 1973. It was first released on Sedaka's 1974 LP "Sedaka's Back".

Although Sedaka (and Wilson Pickett) recorded the song in the 1970s, it is best remembered for the subsequent 1975 cover version by Captain & Tennille. It was their debut single, reaching #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week ending June 21, 1975 and remaining in the top position for four weeks, and was the top US single for the entire year. Their recording also received a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. Captain & Tennille acknowledged Sedaka's authorship as well as his early-1970s comeback by working the phrase "Sedaka is back" into the song's fadeout. The Spanish version of the song, "Por Amor Viviremos", was released as well during the summer of 1975 and charted as high as number 49 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song was released as the only single from the LP "Por Amor Viviremos" which was the same LP as "Love Will Keep Us Together" only rerecorded entirely in Spanish.

In 1983, The Circle Jerks covered "Love Will Keep Us Together" as one of the six cover versions on "Golden Shower of Hits (Jerks on 45)", which appears on their third album with the same title. The song was also covered by Nickelback in 2001 for the Andrew Denton Breakfast Show Musical Challenge on Sydney, Australia's version of radio station Triple M, and was later added as a bonus track on some versions of their 2003 album The Long Road.

The title of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" is considered a reference to the song.

The song was featured on the video game .
