''Love Language'' was the eighth album by R&B/Soul crooner Teddy Pendergrass. It was his first record for Asylum Records after being a longtime artist on Philadelphia International Records. It did much better on the ''Billboard'' 200 than his last two records, peaking at #38. He had not reached the top 40 on the album charts since 1981's ''It's Time for Love''. The album was composed and produced by Michael Masser, with the exception of the track ''You're My Choice Tonight (Choose Me)'' (#15 R&B chart, November 3, 1984), which was produced by Luther Vandross and featured Cissy Houston on background vocals and as "Solo Female Voice". ''Hold Me'' (#46 Hot 100, July 28, 1984; #6 Adult Contemporary Chart) written by Masser and Linda Creed was a duet with Whitney Houston (it later turned up on Houston's debut album). The track "In My Time" reached number 11 on the South African charts, spending seven weeks in the top 20.〔("SA Charts 1969 - 1989" ). Retrieved January 6, 2014.〕 Songs from the album were used on the soundtrack to Alan Rudolph's 1984 film ''Choose Me''. "The songs are performed by Teddy Pendergrass and he's just right. The entire movie has a lilting, loose, choreographic flow to it."〔Pauline Kael, in the collection of movie reviews, ''State of the Art''.〕 ==Track listing== #"In My Time" (Michael Masser, Cynthia Weil) – 3:48 #"So Sad The Song" (Gerry Goffin, Masser) – 3:23 #"Hot Love" (Linda Creed, Masser, Ray Parker, Jr.) – 4:43 #"Stay With Me" (Goffin, Masser) – 4:19 #"Hold Me" (Duet with Whitney Houston) (Creed, Masser) – 5:59 #"You're My Choice Tonight (Choose Me)" (Marcus Miller, Luther Vandross) – 4:48 #"Love" (Randy Goodrum, Masser) – 4:28 #"This Time Is Ours" (Goffin, Masser) – 3:22 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Love Language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
