"Baby, I Love Your Way" is a song written and performed by English singer Peter Frampton, released as a single in September 1975. It first featured on Frampton's 1975 album, Frampton, where it segues from the previous track "Nassau".

A live version of the song was later released on his 1976 multi-platinum album Frampton Comes Alive!, where it gained popularity as a hit song, peaking at number 12 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.[1] It also reached number three in Canada.

Billboard described the live version as an "easy rocker" and said that the portion of the song where Frampton sings the title lyrics made "an effective hook."[2] Cash Box called it "an excellent tune" explaining that "primarily, this is an acoustic tune, and Frampton sings with sensitivity over the soft backing."[3]

In 2017, Frampton discussed this song while talking to Washington D.C. lawmakers about inequitable revenue payments from streaming music services like iTunes and Spotify. "For 55 million streams of 'Baby I Love Your Way', I got $1,700," said Frampton. "Their jaws dropped and they asked me to repeat that for them."[4]

The American reggae/pop band Big Mountain released a cover of the song in February 1994, which appeared on the soundtrack of the film Reality Bites. Their version achieved major worldwide success, reaching number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the UK Singles Chart (being kept off the top spot by "Love is All Around" by Wet Wet Wet). The single reached the top ten in many countries across Europe, including topping the charts of Denmark, Spain, and Sweden. It also reached the top five in Australia and New Zealand, as well as in Canada, where it reached number two.

Critical reception [edit]

Larry Flick from Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling it an "earthy rendition" which is "right in the pocket of current trends."[16] Music & Media commented, "Another '70s pop classic has come out of the reggae grinder to enjoy its second youth in the '90s. Peter Frampton wrote it, not knowing that one day it would appear in the Reality Bites film."[17] Alan Jones from Music Week gave it four out of five, adding that "this is a lightweight reggae cover", and it "is definitely in a summery mood."[18]

Music video [edit]

The music video for the song was directed by Matti Leshem and premiered in April 1994.[19]
