"When Love & Hate Collide" is a song by English rock band Def Leppard from their 1995 greatest hits album Vault, written by Joe Elliott and Rick Savage. The power ballad[1] was originally written and demoed for Adrenalize, but not finalized until 1995 for its inclusion on Vault. The demo version is much more heavily produced in the signature style of Hysteria and Adrenalize, and the final version is more stripped down, supposedly toward the style of the following studio album Slang. The original demo version contains the final recorded guitar solo by late original guitarist Steve Clark.

"When Love & Hate Collide" became one of their most successful singles in the band's homeland, where it reached number two in the UK Singles Charts, but it failed to make a significant impact in the United States, reaching number 58 on the Billboard Hot 100. It did become a top-10 hit in Canada, climbing to number six on the RPM 100 Hit Tracks chart. The song also reached the top spot in Ireland.
