"Defend Love" is an electro-pop song recorded by Amuro Namie, and produced by Nao'ymt. The song was recorded for Amuro's eight studio record PAST < FUTURE. It is a follow up track to "Dr.", both stylistically and visually. Much like it's predecessor it has also been described as an "aggressive"[1] futuristic love song, although "Defend Love" contains more of an urban influence. It was named as one of the album's standout tracks.

Music Video

The music video for "Defend Love" is Amuro's second fully animated music video which was created by Sunrise, Inc. and directed by TANAKAZOO & Tanaka Yusuke.

The video features Amuro as the animated character that was previously seen in the the music video for "Dr." and a third alter ego of Amuro that is battling with the character Amuro Ray from the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam. The scene is almost entirely a recreation of the battle from The Ghost of Solomon of the Universal Century timeline with Amuro's animated character drawn in place of the original character from the sequence, Lalah Sune and piloting the MAN-08 Elmeth. The character of Amuro in the previous animated music video is apparently connected to this third alter ego and is being manipulated with the psycommu system which is forcing her to control the third alter ego in destructive ways.

During the battle sequence Amuro, in a purple MAN-08 Elmeth is fighting Amuro Ray in the RX-78 Gundam. In their newtype bond Ray tries to convince her to stop the battle but Amuro doesn't react to his plea and continues the battle which ultimately forces Ray to destroy the gundam she is piloting which causes the connection between Amuro's two characters to be severed. This scene differs from the scene in the anime series as the death of Lalah Sune was accidental.

At the end of the video a scene with the words "TO BE CONTINUED ►►►" appears. This is the same phrase that appeared at the end of the music video for "Dr." which "Defend Love" is related to.
