If there’s a cure for this
I don’t want it, Don’t want it
If there’s a remedy
I’ll run from it, from it
Think about it all the time
Never let it out of my mind, ‘Cause I love you
I’ve got the sweetest hangover
I don’t wanna get over, Sweetest hangover
Yeah, I don’t wanna get over
I don’t wanna get, I don’t wanna get...over
Ooh, I don’t need no cure
I don’t need no cure, I don’t need no cure
Sweet lovin’
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Don’t call a doctor
Don’t call her momma
Don’t call her preacher
No, I don’t need it
I don’t want it
Sweet love, I love you
Sweet love, need love
If there’s a cure for this
I don’t want it, I don’t want it no
If there’s a cure for this
I don’t need it
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
"Love Hangover" is a song by the American singer Diana Ross, recorded in 1975 and released as a single on March 16, 1976. It was written by Marilyn McLeod and Pam Sawyer, and produced by Hal Davis. It rose to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot-Selling Soul Singles. It also hit number one on the Record World disco charts.
Producer Hal Davis instructed the song's engineer Russ Terrana to install a strobe light so that Ross could be in the "disco" mindset. As the song changed from ballad to uptempo, Ross became more comfortable with the material; she hummed, sang bit parts, laughed, danced around and even imitated Billie Holiday.
The song was first released on the album Diana Ross in February 1976. Motown initially promoted the album by releasing the single "I Thought It Took a Little Time". The vocal group the 5th Dimension released their own version of "Love Hangover" as a single, and Motown then issued Ross's version as a single. Both versions entered the chart the same day. By the time Ross's version of the song reached number one, Ross had reinvented herself as a disco diva and the 5th Dimension's version had peaked at number 80. It won Ross a Grammy nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.
