Records and WEA. "A Different Kind of Love Song" received mostly positive reviews from music critics, who deemed it as one of the album's highlights, although noting Cher's heavily processed vocals due to the use of auto-tune.

No accompanying music video was commissioned for "A Different Kind of Love Song"; however, the track was performed a few times by Cher, including on a Will & Grace episode, her concert tour Living Proof: The Farewell Tour, and during the 50th American Bandstand in 2002.

This a different kind of love song
This a different kind of love song
This a different kind of love song
This a different kind of love

What if the world was crazy and I was sane
Would it be so strange?
I can't believe that I am alone in saying
The things I'm saying
I am a part of you
These are universal truths
We're all part of the light that flows through everything

This is a different kind of love song
Dedicated to everyone
Different kind of love song whoa, whoa
This is a different kind of love song
A higher plane we can go on
Different kind of love song whoa, whoa (love song)

What if the world calmed down and we all could breath
Together easily
Connecting the sky and the ground with you and me
And everything in between

I am part of you
We have living proof
There is some kind of light that flows through everything

This is a different kind of love song
Dedicated to everyone
Different kind of love song whoa, whoa
This is a different kind of love song
A higher plane we can go on
Different kind of love song whoa
This is a different kind of love song whoa
This is a different kind of love song whoa

(This is a different kind of love song)
This is a different kind of love song (ooh)
(Different kind of love song) love song whoa, whoa
This is a different kind of love song
Dedicated to everyone
Different kind of love song (whoa, whoa)
This is a different kind of love song
A higher plane we can go on
Different kind of love song (whoa)
This is a different kind of love song
This is a different kind, a different kind of love song (whoa, whoa)
