'''''Love: And a Million Other Things''''' is [[Claudia Brücken]]'s first solo album, released in February 1991 and produced by [[Pascal Gabriel]] and [[Steve Nye]].
The UK singles from the album were "Absolut(e)" and "Kiss Like Ether". Despite favourable reviews, neither of the singles reached the [[UK Singles Chart|UK Top 40]] ("Absolut(e)" peaked at No. 71, and "Kiss Like Ether" at No. 63<ref name="British Hit Singles & Albums">{{Cite book

Brücken later blamed the album's lack of success on a change of managing director and the promotional team at [[Island Records]] just as she was completing the recording of the album.<ref>{{cite web |last=Chi Ming Lai |title=Another Hope Feeds Another Dream |publisher=The Electricity Club |date=29 August 2010 |url=http://www.electricity-club.co.uk/html/int_claudia.html |accessdate=26 May 2011 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120310042934/http://www.electricity-club.co.uk/html/int_claudia.html |archivedate=10 March 2012 }}</ref><ref>[http://www.discogs.com/artist/Claudia+Br%C3%BCcken Profile on www.discogs.com]</ref> A third track from the album, "Fanatic (The Nail in My Soul)", was only released as a promotional 7" single in France.
