Happy Saturday Noontime my RP Brothers and Sisters!
As I was listening to some background music while on my laptop, I heard a song that I thought might be a great song for all of you as a Noontime Music Interlude...
The Group that was playing is "Heart"! Here is a short backgrounder regarding the group:
Origin: Seattle, WA (1967)
Members: Nancy Wilson, Ann Wilson, Craig Bartock, Debbie Shair and more...
"Heart is an American rock band that first found success in Canada and later in the United States and worldwide. Over the group's five-decade history, it has had three primary lineups, with the constant center of the group since 1973 being sisters Ann Wilson (lead vocals, flute and guitar) and Nancy Wilson (guitar, mandolin and vocals). Heart rose to fame in the mid-1970s with music influenced by hard rock and heavy metal, as well as folk music. Their popularity declined in the early 1980s, but in 1985, the band launched a successful comeback which saw them experience greater success with album-oriented rock hits and hard-rock ballads that went into the 1990s.
To date, Heart has sold over 35 million records worldwide, including over 22.5 million in album sales in the U.S. They have had top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and 2010s. The group was ranked number 57 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock". They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2013." Wikipedia

Dobie Gray - "All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You" (original 1979 version of Heart song)
This song was a smash hit for Heart in 1990. But many people were not aware that the original version of the song (with totally different lyrics) had been re...
Thank you my friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting the music video of the Wilson sisters leading heart as they perform Robert 'Mutt' John Lange' song "All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You"
I prefer the Heart version which Robert 'Mutt' John Lange' modified from the version he wanted Don Henley to sing which Dobie Gray actually sang
Here is the original recording
Dobie Gray - "All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_9qZYyytxM
"This song was written by Mutt Lange, the superproducer who worked on some of the biggest albums of the '80s: AC/DC's Back in Black, Def Leppard's Hysteria, and Foreigner's 4. Lange is also a songwriter, typically collaborating with the artists he works with, but in this case the song is all him.
Lange wrote the song in the '70s and wanted Don Henley to record it. It ended up going to Dobie Gray ("Drift Away"), who released it in 1979 on his self-titled album. This version went unnoticed, but when Heart recorded the song for their 1990 album Brigade, it was a huge hit, reaching #2 in the US.
This is a very strange song, with Ann Wilson singing about picking up a hitchhiker and having sex with him in a motel, apparently with the intention of getting pregnant. Before daybreak, she leaves, but leaves him a note:
I told him
I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden
We planted a tree
In the third verse, she encounters him again, and he sees the child they made. It sounds like Ann told another guy (possibly her husband) that the child was his, and she doesn't want the secret to get out:
You can imagine his surprise
When he saw his own eyes
I said please, please understand
I'm in love with another man
And what he couldn't give me
Was the one little thing that you can
The original Dobie Gray version of this song is more upbeat and skips the hitchhiker/love child storyline. Gray simply sings about being smitten and filled with desire:
All I wanna do is make love to you
There's a million things that we could do
And darling, I, just wanna do them with you
Mutt Lange is the only credited writer on both versions of the song, so it appears that he re-wrote the lyric at some point."

All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You written by Robert 'Mutt' John Lange
Lyrics
It was a rainy night when he came into sight
Standing by the road, no umbrella, no coat
So I pulled up along side and I offered him a ride
He accepted with a smile so we drove for a while
I didn't ask him his name, this lonely boy in the rain
Fate tell me it's right, is this love at first sight
Please don't make it wrong, just stay for the night
All I want to do is make love to you
Say you will you want me too
All I want to do is make love to you
I've got lovin' arms to hold on to
So we found this hotel, it was a place I knew well
We made magic that night. Oh, he did everything right
He brought the woman out of me, so many times, easily
And in the morning when he woke all I left him was a note
I told him I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden we planted a tree
Don't try to find me, please don't you dare
Just live in my memory, you'll always be there
All I want to do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All want to do is make love to you
I've got lovin' arms to hold on to
Oh, oooh, we made love
Love like strangers
All night long
We made love
Then it happened one day, we came round the same way
You can imagine his surprise when he saw his own eyes
I said please, please understand
I'm in love with another man
And what he couldn't give me
was the one little thing that you can
All I want to do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I want to do is make love to you
Come on, say you will, you want me too
All I want to do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I want to do is make love to you
Say you will, you want me too
All night long..."
