English Song: Love Oh Love

Love Oh Love Artist: Lionel Richie Show the world and all its people All the wonders love can bring Give us strength and understanding Give us all one song to sing Let the music play Play it loud and make it clear Its time to stand up To a new world that is now so near From the bottom to the top To the leaders of the land We all have one heart Everyone of us must lend a hand And let there be joy in the world And let there be no sorrow (let there be) And let there be peace on earth And let there be peace on earth For all the world Weve got to see That love, oh love What a blessed thing (oh, yeah) Say it loud Make it clear today All the walls are falling down No more children off to war If we search in our hearts All the suffering will be no more And let there be joy in the world And let there be no sorrow For all gods children Let them see That love, oh love What a blessed thing (oh, yeah) Say it loud Make it clear today And freedom, no more lies We can save this world if we try One world I know we can make it Yes, its only in your heart Yes, its only in your dreams You can climb the highest mountains You can make the whole world sing Love, oh love What a blessed thing (oh, yeah) Say it loud Make it clear today

Love Oh Love From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Love Oh Love is the first solo album by Leroy Hutson. Track listing "So in Love With You" "Love, Oh Love" "When You Smile" "Getting It On" "Time Brings on a Change" "I'll Be There, I'll Still Care " "I'm in Love With You Girl" "As Long as There's Love Around" Review After working as a writer and producer for such soul music stalwarts as Donny Hathaway and a stint replacing Curtis Mayfield as the lead vocalist in The Impressions, Leroy Hutson embarked on a solo career with 1973's Love Oh Love. The album combines the kind of smooth soul music that Hutson performed with The Impressions with more ambitious and conceptual outings in the vein of Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. When Hutson sticks to love songs, Love Oh Love is magical: "So in Love With You" combines a honey-sweet romantic vocal from Hutson with a spine-tingling string arrangement to create an elegant and heartfelt ballad, while the title track raises its tale of lost love to an up-tempo level with jazzy horns and a percolating rhythm arrangement. "As Long as There's Love Around" is another effective romantic track that layers Hutson's velvety vocals over a complex instrumental track that combines gentle strings and brash horns with an insistently grooving bassline. The progressive-minded tracks are less satisfying: "Time Brings on a Change" is a political commentary song whose use of a Martin Luther King sample is a little too gimmicky for its own good, and "Getting It On" is a funk instrumental that fails to work any memorable hooks into its pleasant groove. Despite these problems, nothing on the album is less than listenable and everything flows together nicely to create a cohesive (if somewhat short) album. In short, Love Oh Love is one of the most consistent albums in the Leroy Hutson catalog and a good introduction to his silky soul style. ~ Donald A.
