"Make Love Like a Man" is a 1992 single by English hard rock band Def Leppard from their multi-platinum album Adrenalize. The song reached No. 3 on the Album Rock Tracks chart and No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.
In a Joe Elliott statement on the Vault compilation album, he stated that this song was not about Def Leppard trying to be "MACHO", and were just trying to be funny about the content of this song. The statement only appears on the UK version of Vault, as the track is not included on the American version. Elliott made a similar note in the album booklet for the later Best Of compilation, joking that "everyone thought we were turning into Manowar" and explaining that the band had come to terms with the then-recent death of guitarist Steve Clark on the album track "White Lightning" and wanted to have a lighter song on the album.
In a 2014 audio interview, Elliott said that he would rather not play this song live any more, as he found lyrics "were a nod too stupid."
The video was the first to feature Vivian Campbell, who had joined the band when the album was released so he does not appear on the recording.
