"This I Swear" is a song by British singer Kim Wilde, released in January 1996 as the second single from her ninth album, Now & Forever (1995). The song was issued in a slightly different form to that which is found on the album. 12" and CD single formats also include a 'Wilde Remix'. Another track from the same album, "Heaven" was used as the B-side and underwent several remixes. The UK 12" single also contained a remix of the previous single, "Breakin' Away".
British magazine Music Week gave the song three out of five, describing it as "a light, fluid ballad".[1] James Hamilton from the RM Dance Update deemed it a "sincerely cooed mushy beat-ballad".[2]
