Radio DJs played it constantly helping to make this tune a big #1 hit on the US Pop, R&B and Easy Listening charts. This song was originally recorded by Country artists, but this performer made the song his own. Along with two other notable #1 hits from this singer, "Georgia on My Mind" and "Hit the Road Jack, this was his first Gold Record. -Do you know the name of this African American singer and piano player? 2. This "Disco Queen" added this "sexy tune" to her list of love songs like "Hot Stuff," and "Bad Girls." It was her first big hit, and the song was filled with grunts, groans and moans throughout. The tune was so hot the word "LOVE" is used "twice" in the song title, along with another word which means "infant." It's an endearing term that one might "call a lover during intimacy." -Can you name this female singer and her love-titled song filled with sexual inuendo? 3. This "70's group" was so "good" they used "the opposite of that word" to describe their name.

This band used love as a theme in many of their songs like "Can't Get Enough of (Your Love) and Feel Like Makin' Love." This love song's "title begins" with a word which "means someone is "all set" or "at the ________."
