Pillow Talk: The Moans and Groans and Intimate Pleasures of Disco

**remicks** · April 28th, 2009, 01:39 PM

*****

Is there any denying all the sensual moaning and groaning that's a part of disco music's legacy??
A noteworthy element of its history wouldn't you say ?

So,
Can we come up with a comprehensive list of every disco song that includes this climatic component? :icon_mrgreen:

(((Seems like this type of thread should have been done already but I can't find such a thread by searching ....

(but then how does one search the topic anyway ??

)
But if anyone can find an existing thread maybe they can link it here.:icon_cool: )))

I chose PILLOW TALK to be in the heading because I think its' title not only makes the point ...
but was the song that gave the green light to the concept . .......... (?)
Sung so gently so sweetly by Sylvia .... only a total prude would hear it as distasteful !!:icon_razz:

And so the flood gate was opened! Let the moaning begin!! :icon_lol:

Of course a You Tube reference to these songs would always be great .... :icon_biggrin:
but by no means required. In many cases the music Nazis won't permit the actual versions to be shared amongst us anyway ,
songs such as :

Major Harris LOVE WON'T LET ME WAIT ... another innovator of the moaning genre....

(written by Bobby Eli guitarist in MFSB , Salsoul Orchestra, and The John Davis Orch)

karaoke version ( with moans! )

OK ...... name those tunes!!! :icon_mrgreen::icon_biggrin:

I'll start with the obvious....Donna Summer's Love To Love You Baby"--here in a live version with a sped-up beat...Donna looking great....maybe not as many moans and groans as in the actual record.....but fun to see

For the male counterpoint, my fave is Barry White's "Love's Serenade"...I can only find this version with a plus-size+ [yeah, I said "fat" first

] chick lip-synching!!!

Just listen to Barry's murmuring bedroom talk..."...I don't need to see no panties"..."take off that brassiere, my dear."

They don't write 'em like that anymore. Now it's "Bitch, Suck my muthaf**king d**k." Ah sweet nothings!!!

Mmm, always loved "Sweet Surrender", kind of "Love hangover" part 2.

When I was a teenager the moanings in the middle section of Summer's "Prelude to love/Could it be magic" used to make me so uncomfortable. Apparently it's the same for Summer in this tv version :icon_biggrin:.

TV version:

The lp version (with "everything"):
