“Lost in Love” is a 1980 song recorded by the Australian group Air Supply.
The song was written by group member Graham Russell and included on their album of the same name.
Air Supply had enjoyed some popularity in their native country during the mid to late 1970s, but the group was largely unknown outside Australia.
Russell traveled to England in 1979, and while there, discovered that the group’s Australian record label Big Time Records had sold “Lost in Love” to Arista Records in the United States for distribution; soon thereafter, their song became a hit on the music charts in the U.S.
The song spent four weeks at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in May, 1980.
It also topped the Billboard adult contemporary chart for six weeks that same year.
