AllMusic[1]

Sales of the album were not as strong as O'Neal's earlier releases; it went on to peak at number 89 on the US Billboard 200 and reached number 18 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.[2] The album launched three charting singles in the United Kingdom: "Love Makes No Sense" peaked at number 26 on the UK Singles Chart; "In the Middle" peaked at number 32; "All That Matters to Me" peaked at number 67.[3] It was O'Neal's first album not to be certified by the BPI, since his 1988 Christmas album, My Gift to You.

Love Makes No Sense was re-released in 2013 on Tabu's new Re-born imprint, featuring rare bonus content. The reissue is a two-CD set with the original album digitally remastered from the original half-inch mix tapes; the bonus content consists of associated 7-inch and 12-inch mixes.
