"Miracle Love" is a song by Australian musician Matt Corby, released in February 2019 as the fourth and final single from his second studio album, Rainbow Valley.[1] A live version was released on 8 March 2019.[2]

In a discussion with ABC, Corby said he originally didn't like the song, believing it was "too basic" before reworking it. He said is particularly proud of the drums in this song.[3]

In December 2019, the song won first place in the Vanda & Young Global Songwriting Competition.[4]

At the APRA Music Awards of 2020, the song was nominated for Most Performed Alternate Work of the Year.[5][6]

Reception[edit]

Mixdown Mag said "'Miracle Love' sees the Australian musical extraordinaire channel his inner D'Angelo on the soulful track. Packed with dense vocal harmonies and staggered neo-soul grooves, 'Miracle Love' goes the distance to exemplify Corby's insane talent as a songwriter and performer."[1]
