24/7 love
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
24/7 love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
You're gonna have to love me day and night
24/7 love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
In the morning, in the evening
In the winter spring or summer
Whether it's early or it's late
It doesn't matter any time
Tender loving sweet devotion
Every second minute hour
I'll be waiting for you
Come put your lovin' on the line
Take me in your arms and let me know
That it's all right
Look into my eyes and let me see you
Deep inside
24 hours a day, seven days a week
I need to feel you here beside me
I need to hold and squeeze you tight
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
24/7 love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
24/7 love you know, just what I need
It's what I need

You're gonna have to love me day and night
24/7 love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
24/7 love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
I'll be praying, asking, saying
Send someone like you just for me
Someone special, I belong to
I could be yours and you could be mine
Quiet moments, filled with passion
In my heart you know I'm yearning
Long to please you, touch you
Send me your lovin' right on time
Take me in your arms and let me know
That it's all right (know that it's all right)
Look into my eyes and let me see you
Deep inside (see you deep inside)
24 hours a day, seven days a week
(Seven days a week)
I need to feel you here beside me
I need to hold and squeeze you tight
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night

The song βTwentyfour Sevenβ by Artful Dodger ft. Melanie Blatt is a romantic ballad about the intense love and devotion the singer expects from her partner. The lyrics repeat the phrase β24/7 loveβ as a symbol of the singerβs desire for her partner's love and attention around the clock. She emphasizes her need for love and affection every hour of the day and any day of the year. The singer asks her partner to show her their love by offering tender and sweet devotion in every second, minute, and hour. She expresses her yearning for her partnerβs touch and longs to please and touch them in return. The singer prays for someone special to belong to and hopes for someone to send their love right on time, emphasizing the importance of the right timing in a relationship.
The chorus is a repetitive pattern that emphasizes the importance of the singer's need for 24/7 love. She sings βIf you want me to do you right, you gotta love me day and nightβ twice, affirming her love's dependency on reciprocation. The second time it's sung, there are added harmonies to enhance the meaning of the lyrics. The song's verses describe that the love the singer wants is unconditional, passionate, and pure. She wants to be physically close to her partner and asks them to hold and squeeze her tight. The vocal melody is smooth and mellow, complemented by the synthesized beats that create a soothing and sensual listening experience.

@soundseeker63
Wow I've not heard this in at least 15 years but what gem! A lovely blast from the past, it's easy to forget how classy urban pop/RnB/Garage music was back then. No nudity, vulgarity or violence, just catchy melodies and nice vocals...job done. Good times!
@RareMusicSpam
Girl, thatβs absolutely not true. All saints had endless amounts of songs about explicit sex , but you and many others always try to cherry pick songs like this and invalidate todayβs musicβ¦ embarassing
@CaapriceTube1

The Early 2000s was the last GREAT Era
