For me it's a tie between Styx (Babe) and Led Zeps (All of my Love)!!!

"Oh, Pretty Lady" by Trooper (1978)

For '70s songs, one of these will do

You are My Starship -- Norman Connors (1976)
I Go Crazy -- Paul Davis (1977)

But "With Your Love" is disqualified. It's been awhile since I've heard it and a recent listen on Rhapsody tells me its tempo is a little too fast to be a "slow dance song"...I still like it anyway.  :)

Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye - Casinos


Absolutely LOVE that song!

For The Good Times - Ray Price

Close The Door - Teddy Pendegrass

Slow Dancing - Johnny Rivers
Your Song - Elton John

Thanks!

'With Your Love' is a great song...as is most of Jefferson Starship's material of that time!  :)

So many great songs to choose from.

The Commodores-Three Times a Lady
The Commodores-Easy
Johnny Rivers-Slow Dancing
Three Dog Night-Pieces of April
Bob Seger-Mainstreet

How about Barry White?

;) Nuff said  (I'm single again, so dancing is pretty much all I've got right now  :\'(    )

How about Luther Vandross?

Wonderful Tonight ~ Eric Clapton

How about Luther Vandross?


Dynamite choice in terms of slow dancing!  But his career didn't really take off until around 1980.

'Cruisin'' - Smokey Robinson

Deliciously slow with just enough beat in it to

a) keep talentless dancers like me in some sort of rhythm and

b) slip in a few 'naughty' bumps and grinds in!  :D ;)

Tonight's The Night (Gonna Be Alright) - Rod Stewart

The Wonder of You ~ Elvis Presley

Gino Vannelli - I Just Wanna Stop    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xXIHPUmv3k

Color my world - Chicago  :D :D :D
Three times a lady -Commodores
You won't dance with me - April Wine
Close to you -carpenters
If - Bread
Your song - Elton John
Yesterday once more - Carpenters
Evergreen - Streisand

Let's face it "At Last" was a great choice.  Always liked that song

Let's Stay Together - Al Green

I don't really know too many 70's songs, but I like "Love Hurts" by Nazareth

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Sorry, just a reaction, I can't even listen to them do that song.  It was written as a rockabilly song and was done much better by Roy Orbison, but I think Jim Capaldi did it the best.
