Music video

Two music videos for "Love Glove" exist. One version is the clip shot in Egypt by Jean-Claude Luyat, as a part of a full-length video incorporating songs from The Anvil and Beat Boy. It features Egyptian pyramids and Steve Strange riding a camel across the desert as well as singing on a yacht.[1] This version was later included on the Visage video album in 1985.

Another version was shot by Nick Morris in London's Docklands in August 1984. In this version, Steve Strange appears in his Beat Boy album cover make up.[2]

The cover art for the single features Steve Strange posing with two models, one of whom is Yasmin Le Bon.[3]
