Choose Love is the 14th studio album by Ringo Starr, released in 2005. Recorded throughout 2004 into 2005, using the same team that created Vertical Man (1998) and Ringo Rama (2003), Starr produced the set with longtime musical partner Mark Hudson and performed it with their studio team.

But where that album and the two records that followed it - 1998's Vertical Man and 2003's Ringorama - were star-studded affairs, the only guests here are Robert Randolph and Chrissie Hynde, who stops in for a duet on "Don't Hang U. That means Ringo relies on his longtime collaborators Mark Hudson (who is also the record's co-producer), Gary Burr, and Steve Dudas, who form the core of his touring and recording band, as well as function as his co-writers, and by this point, they've been together nearly a decade.
The title song (CHOOSE LOVE), OH MY LORD, FADE IN FADE OUT, GIVE ME BACK THE BEAT, SOME PEOPLE, ME AND YOU, THE TURNAROUND, FREE DRINKS, and DON'T HANG UP are all five star songs. The other two are fours. OH MY LORD is as great of a spiritual work as "I Want to Know What Love Is" by Foreigner.
