Saturday May 8, 2021 “Can’t Get Enough of Your Love” Barry White

Barry White has one of the most immediately identifiably and 'erotic' voices in music.

 White grew up singing gospel songs with his mother and taught himself to play piano. He made his recording debut at the tender age of 11, playing piano on Jesse Belvin's hit record "Goodnight My Love" and he made his first record when he was 16 with a group called the Upfronts.

 He would go on to produce and arrange songs for groups as diverse as the Bobby Fuller Four and the Fifth Dimension before he founded the Love Unlimited Orchestra.

 A two-time Grammy Award–winner known for his bass-baritone voice and romantic image, White’s greatest success came in the 1970s as a solo singer and with The Love Unlimited Orchestra, creating many enduring soul, funk, and disco songs including his two biggest hits: "You're the First, the Last, My Everything" and today's "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe". Due to his large frame, facial hair, and deep voice, he was given the nickname "The Walrus of Love".

 White had 20 gold and 10 platinum singles, with worldwide record sales in excess of 100 million records, and is one of the best-selling music artists of all time.

Stay safe and well...and don’t believe anyone who tells you too much of a good thing is not good for you.

I've heard people say that

Too much of anything is not good for you, baby

(Oh no) but I don't know about that

There's many times that we've loved

We've shared love and made love

It doesn't seem to me like it's enough

There's just not enough of it

There's just not enough

Oh oh, babe

 (My babe) My darling I, can't get enough of your love babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know why

I can't get enough of your love babe

Oh, some things I can't get used to

No matter how I try

Just like the more you give, the more I want

And baby, that's no lie

Oh no, babe

 Tell me, what can I say?

What am I gonna do?

How should I feel when everything is you?

What kind of love is this that you're givin' me?

Is it in your kiss or just because you're sweet?

 Girl, all I know is every time you're here

I feel the change

Something moves

I scream your name

Do what you got to do

 Darling, I, can't get enough of your love babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why

I can't get enough of your love babe

Oh no, babe

 Girl, if only I could make you see

And make you understand

Girl, your love for me is all I need

And more than I can stand

Oh well, babe

 How can I explain all the things I feel?

You've given me so much

Girl, you're so unreal

Still I keep loving you

More and more each time

Girl, what am I gonna do

Because you blow my mind

 I get the same old feeling every time you're here

I feel the change

Something moves

I scream your name

Do what you got to do

 Darling, I, can't get enough of your love babe

Oh no, babe

 Baby, it didn't take all of my life to find you

But you can believe it's gonna take the rest of my life to keep you

 Oh no, babe

I can't get enough of your love babe

Yeah, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why

Can't get enough of your love babe

Oh my darling I, can't get enough of your love babe

Oh babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know why

I can't get enough of your love babe

 Oh darling I can't get enough of your love babe
