    turn out the lights, it's gonna be all right

    Does anyone know this song--early 80's, maybe '82/'83, lyrics go:
    So turn out [or off?] the liiiiiiiights,
    It's gonna be all right (it's gonna be all right)
    So turn off the liiiiiights,
    you know [something something rhymes with light]

    Female voice (I think?) Airy, pretty sounding. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks everyone--unfortunately, it's not any of the suggestions. Any other ideas?? I could sing it for you but I don't have any way to put that on the internet, not that you'd really want to hear it, hah hah..... :lol:

    Can you post any more lyrics? I can hear the song in my head, but can't remember the name or artist. I spent an hour searching my disc database for every combination of those lyrics that I can think of, but nothing shows up. I know I have this record somewhere in my collection!

    I know and love this song. It is Karen Silver Love Me Tonight (Turn out the light).
    Released in the U.S. on Quality Records / RFC Records in 1981.

    It was one of the first of a great resurrection of disco high energy tracks in the 80's. God, I love this song!
    Also, check out her other singles, especially Cleanup Woman!

    One minor correction. It was a Canadian release and was never released on a US label.

    Thanks! I never heard it but will look for it. She seems to have Gino Soccio's hand in almost everything she did.
