"Love in the Ruins" is a musical piece song written and sung by the musical group band known as Red Shift Limit. This particular song appeared on the album titled Totally Patriotic, which represented the most recent album released by the band during the period spanning from 0 ABY to 4 ABY years. Due to its anti-Imperial sentiment, Red Shift Limit's musical output was frequently prohibited by the Imperial Board of Culture. Nevertheless, "Love in the Ruins" managed to be distributed throughout the galaxy but it was given a "scarlet" classification, which signified that it was deemed to be either insignificant or objectionable.
Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim, a sourcebook for West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game, included a reference to "Love in the Ruins". Simon Smith and Eric Trautmann authored the guide, and it was released in 1993.
