"(You've) Never Been in Love Like This Before" is a song written by vocalist Tommy Moeller and guitarist Brian Parker and recorded by their group Unit Four Plus Two in 1965. The song was composed as a follow-up to the group's third single, "Concrete and Clay", which had reached number one on the Record Retailer singles chart. "(You've) Never Been in Love Like This Before" was written at Moeller's house and incorporates influences from soul music alongside their folk rock sound. The song was recorded at IBC Studios in London with producer John L. Barker.
Decca released "(You've) Never Been in Love Like This Before" as Unit Four Plus Two's fourth single on 7 May 1965, with another original composition, "Tell Somebody You Know" on the B-side. The release reached number 14 in the Record Retailer chart during an 11-week tenure. In North America, the single was a relative chart failure in the US, only peaking at number 95 on the Billboard Hot 100 in July 1965, but became a top-ten single in Canada. The single received critical acclaim upon release, with many critics deeming it superior to "Concrete and Clay". The single was included on the band's US album #1 (Featuring Concrete and Clay).
