Released on the 1997 album No Roots, 'What About Love' stands as a defining track in Faithless's evolution from jungle to electronic dance music. The song features the iconic vocal performance of Lisa Gerrard, whose ethereal delivery contrasts with the track's driving, atmospheric production. As a centerpiece of No Roots, it exemplifies the group's signature blend of organic textures and synthesized rhythms that characterized their work during the late 1990s. The recording captures a moment where Faithless sought to expand the boundaries of their sound, moving away from the aggressive breakbeat hardcore of their earlier era toward a more melodic and emotive style. Its enduring popularity highlights its effectiveness as a club track while also serving as a staple for fans of the genre's golden age.
