Jody Vanessa Watley (born January 30, 1959) is an American singer, songwriter and record producer, whose music crosses genres including pop, R&B, jazz, dance and electronic soul.
In 1987, she won the Grammy Award for "Best New Artist."
Along with Janet Jackson and Madonna, she ranks as one of MTV Video Music Awards most nominated female artists ever, with six nominations for her ‘Real Love’ video.
In 2008, she was the recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from Billboard magazine, and was also prominently featured in the historic black issue of Vogue Italia in 2008.
"I Love to Love" is a song recorded by German Eurodance group La Bouche. It was released in November 1995 as the fourth and last single of their album Sweet Dreams. It achieved a minor success in comparison with the big hit "Be My Lover", but managed to peak at number 6 in Australia.
The CD maxi's cover features also the title of the fourth track, "Forget Me Nots", that is another song of the album.
"I Love to Love (But My Baby Loves to Dance)" was a popularsingle by Tina Charles, from her debut album, I Love to Love; the song was composed by Jack Robinson and James Bolden. The track was an international success both upon its original 1976 release and also when - remixed by The DMC (Disco Mix Club) - it was reissued ten years later (the DMC version features the instrumental "Sunburn" by the Biddu Orchestra as its B-side).
Background
Although Tina Charles only turned twenty-two the year she recorded "I Love to Love (But My Baby Loves to Dance)" she had been recording for seven years and had sung lead on an international hit: "I'm on Fire" by 5000 Volts (1975) but her contribution was unacknowledged, with Luan Peters cited as vocalist in promotion for the group. It was through a mutual friend: singer Lee Vanderbilt, that Charles met up record producerBiddu who had her record "I Love to Love..." utilizing Manchester musicians Richie Close (keyboard), Clive Allen (guitar), Des Browne (bass) and Tom Daley (percussion) to create a signature hit sound for Charles. Reaching #1 on the UK Singles Chart in March 1976 and topping the chart for three weeks, "I Love to Love..." was followed by seven more chart records for Charles; only her Top Ten entries "Dance Little Lady Dance" and "Doctor Love" reached the Top 20.
