"Love (Makes Me Do Foolish Things)" is a 1965 pop ballad by Motown girl group Martha and the Vandellas.[1] A rare ballad for the group, whose forte was reportedly uptempo soul dance numbers{{by whom|date=October 2016}} including "Dancing in the Street" and "Nowhere to Run", the b-side to the group's single, "You've Been in Love Too Long", although the song only peaked at #70 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and #22 on the Billboard Hot R&B singles chart,[2] it was number one on many American urban radio playlists.{{cn|date=September 2016}}The song, written and produced by Holland–Dozier–Holland, has the narrator explain why love makes her do things she later regrets.{{or|date=September 2016}}{{cn|date=September 2016}}
