I Love How You Love Me was Bobby Vinton's eighteenth studio album, released in 1968. The title track was previously a major hit for the Paris Sisters in 1961.

Two singles came from this album: the title track, which reached No. 9 in the United States and "Halfway to Paradise" (US #23, previously a hit for Tony Orlando and Billy Fury). Cover versions include "Those Were the Days", "Till", "For Once in My Life", "Why Don't You Believe Me" and the Drifters' hit "Save the Last Dance for Me".

The album cover photo features Vinton receiving a hug from Susan Szasz. She was the winner of a contest run by Epic Records to become the cover girl of a Bobby Vinton album.
