"Miss You Love" is a song by the Australian rock band Silverchair. It was released as the third single from their 1999 album Neon Ballroom. AllMusic critic Jason Anderson called the song a weepy ballad reminiscent of Goo Goo Dolls.^[1]

Background

The song was written when Daniel Johns was suffering from severe depression, among other things. In an interview with Kerrang! magazine, Johns said that the song was "about not being able to establish a relationship with anyone, not being able to experience love outside of family". He also mentioned that he "wanted a song that people could perceive as a love song, while the lyrics are actually very angry".^[2]

Additionally, the song appeared in the 2000 Australian film Looking for Alibrandi, although it was not included on the official soundtrack.
