"No Other Love" is a popular song.

The words were written by Bob Russell. The music is credited to Paul Weston but is actually derived from Frédéric Chopin's Étude No. 3 in E, Op. 10, and is practically identical to that of the song "Tristesse," a 1939 hit for French singer-actor Tino Rossi. It should not be confused with "No Other Love", written and composed by Broadway team Rodgers and Hammerstein.

A version recorded by Jo Stafford (Weston's wife) with Weston's orchestra backing her (released by Capitol Records as catalogue number 1053[1]), reached #10 on the Billboard charts in 1950. This version of the song was featured heavily in the trailers and final sound-track for Paul Thomas Anderson's 2012 film The Master.

The song was also recorded by The Lettermen, and included on their 1969 album, I Have Dreamed.
