The song became Mills' biggest hit on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart, where it peaked at No. 6, the single was also successful on the R&B and Adult Contemporary charts, peaking at No. 12 and No. 5, respectively. In the UK Charts, the track climbed to No. 4.
"Never Knew Love Like This Before" is a song by American R&B singer Stephanie Mills. The song is the second and final single from Mills' 1980 album, Sweet Sensation. The single was released in August 1979 and became a huge hit in 1980.
this will always be a special song to me know matter what u say you cant take it away from me 4 yrs ago ment the world to me and when i listen to this its very painful. but i hold on to every word in this song and always will cc
30 years ago..... in 1981....my partner ( Debbie) & I won my High School Dance contest to this beautiful song... it 's my all time favorite song....nothing will ever surpass this song....
this song is so beautiful and i still love it and i love Stephanie's voice it is really beautiful and soulful what a timeless classic and i still listen to this song now it takes me back to the 80's when the music was the best and very special and i miss the 80's so much i wish i could come back
I actually read somewhere that this song was originally offered to Patti LaBelle, but she turned it down. I'm kind of curious to see how Patti would've done it, if she'd decided to take it...
this song is very special to me, I met the great love of my life in 1989 dancing. I miss u , life took u away from me but the memories remain. I love you still!!!
gosh i miss 12 inch lps, when u got buy a record back in the day u get the huge pictures which cds dont offer, back then were really good experiences in terms of buying Lps records. good old days love u stephanie mills
If ever, i meet Mr special, & get married i want this song to be played at my wedding (first dance) as i love it so much what a song goosebumps just listening to it !!

This is the best of all that has been posted of this song for this great vocal of Stephanie Mills for this song. The chorus sounds like the background vocals in songs of Diana Ross and the Supremes of the 70's.
Yeah sure bring me so many memories 1980,1981 summer of 1981 # 1 by the beautiful Stephanie Mills God bless her for her beautiful music. The best music ever, Never knew music like this before, never, never, never.
@MeredithWaters Amen!!! This song is one of my anthems. I've been a Christian for 32 years but only now am I beginning to realise the sweetness and strength of divine love.
My very first ever girlfriend used to play this for me...before I knew even one could find message in music..wish I knew it back then..the heady sunny days of the cool carefree 80's..sigh...Amanda...wherever you are today...thanks for the memories and good music.
I had not heard this song in more than 30 years; I looked for it because I just heard a song where part of the tune resembled that of this song. I'm so glad I have recovered it.
I can't believe this song is exactly 30 years old! Released in November 1980, I was a freshman in high school when this wonderful song hit the radio airwaves! You don't hear great songs like this anymore, for sure! Bravo, Stephanie Mills!
@ChihuahuaboyDH I wasn't even alive but i can't agree with you more that this song is still classic 30 years on, so what age would you have been back in 1980 as freshman then, as im not too familiar with how the schooling works in States being from the UK and stuff.
@MeBenHalpin Hello, Ben. The school system in the U.S. works in a number system (Grades K through 12). "Kindergaten" is one's first traditional year of schooling (@ age 5). Grades 9 through 12 are the high school years, & are termed accordingly (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior). A freshman is 14 years of age, & a senior is 17 years of age upon entering the school year. Hope this helps!
I was in worship yesterday, and found myself singing this song to the one that died for me over 2000 years ago. The LORD, is so awesome with HIS loving, I never knew love like this before. YAH, makes me hit those high notes like Miss Mills. I never knewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!
I was a little boy, and I remember when my mother and father were together, this was their favorite song........I was only four then and remember this song being played over and over........I love you mom and dad........your son,San Jaun Caffey Jr.......
This is one of the greatest songs/recordings of all time. Her performance is fabulous. It's hard to believe music can be this good. A wildly entertaining, ultra fabulous vocal performance. She is one of the greatest female vocalists of all time. She just has a way of singing. It's very distinct and unusual.
Such a great tune.....brings so much good memories of my childhood...also, once i was lost and i found Jesus, my Savior...I think of him evertime i hear this beautiful tune!!!!!
@hilljayne Hey, hilljayne, I bet most of us try to sing this in the shower (no matter what age or gender or...anything). You know we're all trying to sing this in the shower! In the car on the way home! Outside in the yard while gardening!.....etc,etc,etc.....What a SONG!
NEVER.
