"Spread Your Love" was produced by EWF bandleader Maurice White and composed by White, Azar Lawrence and Beloyd Taylor. The single's b-side was a tune called Hearts to Heart. Both songs came from Earth, Wind & Fire's 1983 studio album Powerlight.[1]
Chip Stern of Musician noted that "Robert Greenidge's slithery steel drums featured on the Eastern-tinged Spread Your Love".[4] Craig Lytle of Allmusic proclaimed "the (song's) sonically aggressive special effects are contrasted with a soothing chanting chorus."[5]
