    The drinking song he used for the tune was pretty romantic.

    The Starland Vocal Band has actually said that the National Anthem was the inspiration for their song.

    I doubt someone watching a war could inspire that horrible Afternoon Delight song.

    The best part of that song was the the non-family friendly image that ‘afternoon delight’ invoked.

    Yeah, but that’s means the Starland Vocal Band would have had a hit with The Star Spangled Banner…I don’t think I could’ve handled that.
