Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" is a single by Spiller (featuring vocals by Sophie Ellis-Bextor) and released in 2000 by Positiva. It went to number one on the UK, New Zealand, Ireland Dance & Australian charts and number three on the American Hot Dance/Club Play charts.
The track was produced by Italian DJ and producer Cristiano Spiller in 1999 as an instrumental, and was included in the Mighty Miami EP. It is mainly built upon samples from "Love Is You", a disco song originally performed by Carol Williams. In order to make the track more palatable for airplay, as the instrumental is somewhat repetitive, Positiva asked British singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor, formerly with indie rock band theaudience, to provide lyrics and vocals for the song. Before recording, the lyric was partly reworked by Rob Davis who replaced Ellis-Bextor's proposed hook "And so it goes..." with the line "If this ain't love...", thereby providing the song with its subtitle.Boris Dlogosch produced the vocal portions added to the track. Sharon Scott is the back-up vocalist.
In the UK, this single was first released in the same week as "Out of Your Mind", Victoria Beckham's first song since the break up of her group, the Spice Girls. "Out of Your Mind" held the midweek number one in the UK singles chart until Saturday, when "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" overtook it in sales; it was hyped by the media as a personal battle between the two artists.
The song was the 8th best selling of 2000 in the UK.
