"Let Me Love You (Until You Learn to Love Yourself)" is the latest single by Ne-Yo, taken from his upcoming fifth studio album, R.E.D. (2012). Released on July 10, 2012 by Motown Records, the song serves as the mainstream lead single from the album following the release of an R&B-tinged lead single, "Lazy Love".
"Let Me Love You" combines elements of synthpop and Europop with a celebratory chorus co-written with indie-pop songwriter Sia Furler and production courtesy of Ne-Yo's frequent Norwegien collaborators StarGate and British producers Mark Hadfield and Mike Di Scala.
Ne-Yo's fifth album R.E.D. (2012) is the follow-up to the singer's 2010 concept-heavy studio album, Libra Scale. The album's first single titled "Lazy Love" was premiered online on May 14, 2012, and was serviced to US urban radio later the same month. Internationally, "Let Me Love You" is the sole lead single for the album. On September 9, 2012, the song topped the UK Singles Chart for the week ending date September 15, 2012, becoming Ne-yo's fourth number one single in the United Kingdom.
