“Love Bites” is a UK promo-only single recorded by Jamaican singer Grace Jones to promote the Sci-Fi Channel’s Vampire Week from 4-9th November 1996, which consisted of a series of vampire-themed films aired on the channel. Jones sings the song from the perspective of a vampire, perhaps alluding to the theme of her 1986 feature film Vamp. The song was released for a promotional use only, and was not commercially available. “Love Bites” has not appeared on any Grace Jones compilation.

Additionaly there are no producer or renix credits listed on the sleeve or labels.
