Love Hangover
"Love Hangover" is a song by the Motown singer Diana Ross, recorded in 1975 and released as a single on March 16, 1976. It rose to number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and Hot-Selling Soul Singles. It also hit number one on the Record World disco charts. Producer Hal Davis instructed the song's engineer Russ Terrana to install a strobe light so that Ross could be in the "disco" mindset. As the song changed from ballad to uptempo, Ross became more comfortable with the material; she hummed, sang bit parts, laughed, danced around and even imitated Billie Holiday. The carefree and sensual nature of Ross' vocals and the music's direction helped to sell the song, in addition to the background vocals relying heavily on Donna Summer's 1975 hit " Love to Love You Baby". The song was first released on the album ''Diana Ross'' in February 1976. Motown initially promoted the album by releasing the single "I Thought it Took a Little Time". Singing group the 5th Dimension released "Love ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
