"Only Love" is a 1985 song by Greek singer Nana Mouskouri. It is the theme song to the British TV series Mistral's Daughter — based upon the novel by Judith Krantz — and when released as a single it reached number 2 in the UK Singles Chart in early 1986.[1]
The song was also a hit in its other versions: "L'Amour en Héritage" (French), "Come un'eredità" (Italian), "La dicha del amor" (Spanish), and "Aber die Liebe bleibt" (German). The German version was also recorded with an alternate set of lyrics under the title "Der wilde Wein" but was withdrawn in favour of "Aber die Liebe bleibt".
Sissel Kyrkjebø version
Norwegian soprano Sissel Kyrkjebø covered this song in Norwegian, titled "Kjærlighet" (Love), for her 1986 album Sissel and in Swedish for the Sweden-release of the album in 1987.
