Amber is the one who usually doesn't get the sexual innuendo, but most people in the 70's never realized it because the group was so squeaky clean. There is a great Arrested Development episode where the Jason Bateman character joins his niece for a karaoke rendition of this song, neither one realizing the meaning of the song. When they start singing it to each other, they finally turn to the audience only to see them all aghast with shock and horror and Jason realizes finally what they are singing and grabs his niece and they run off the stage. Jason says to her as they flee "Never knew the song was about that."

I think it's harmonies are so incredibly beautiful and sweet, it makes the song have a pure and dreamy sound.

After this sweet song came out the phrase “afternoon delight” became a euphemism for making love at unusual times. I still think of it that way all these years later. So glad to see your reactions…TY. Yes, perfect harmonies…

This song was born from a restaurant menu* that had a small section called 'Afternoon Delight' and Bill Danoff took that with him and worked the song for a long time until he came out with this version. But yes, by the lyrics, isn't anything about what's on the menu. Loved your video! *This fact can be found on KZfaq.

I was 4 years old when this hit #1, and I remember it very well! I obviously didn't know what it was about at that age, but it was different than everything else that was out. I think that's why it did so well on the singles chart.

Yes, but it's not about fornication. It's about lovemaking within marriage, and what's more wholesome and essential than that?

What I love the most about this song I mean I love everything about this song but what I love the most is how they talk about the subject matter and such a sweet and I don’t wanna say innocent way maybe that’s the wrong word but you know what I mean, it’s just such a sweet adorable song

When I was a kid, about 7 years old, my clock radio woke me up to this song. But before I woke it filtered into my dream and I was seeing rockets blast off on a sunny day. I woke up in one of the best moods ever. Of course as a kid I had no idea what the real meaning of the song was ;) Best use of this song in a movie was in Anchor Man.

One of the two married couples in this band came from John Denver's backing band. Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivert share songwriting credits with John Denver on take Me Home Country Roads. They also co-wrote the John Denver hit I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado. Starland vocal Band had a TV variety show for a hot minute. It was one of David Letterman's earliest gigs in television. He was a writer and a regular cast member.

Amber you are right the song was about grabbing some afternoon loving. The look on your face the moment you realized what the song was about was great. They were basically a one hit wonder, they might of had a minor hit after this but do not remember for sure. Great reactions guys, keep up the great work. You all have a blessed day.
