Jamel -- On 1970s radio (during my youth...I was 14 when this song was out), things still had to be sung somewhat "in code" to keep it family friendly. Lyrics weren't blatant. That's why you have the sticks and stones rubbing and sky rockets analogies. BTW -- The members of the Starland Vocal Band formerly comprised John Denver's backup vocal singers.

The first half of the first season aired with 'Afternoon delight' as it's theme song. The creator of the show, Simon Townsend, wasn't aware of the suggestive nature of the song but after he was told, immediately had a new song written to replace it.

They are just singing their song nothing salacious or dirty about their mannerisms. Just an enjoyable song and what great harmonies. Imagine this song being sung today!!!

Afternoon delight is in the dictionary because of this song. "A well recognized term for a midday sexual encounter, often between or instead of scheduled events."

I was nine when this song came out in 1976, and me and my friend loved this song because it was about "Sky rockets in flight!" --We figured that is what the afternoon delight was all about.

A fun fact for you, the blond lady (Taffy Nivert and the tall dark haired guy Bill Danoff used to be in John Denver's band and co-wrote "Take Me Home Country Roads" with John. Also, Bill and Taffy were married and the other couple Jon Carroll and Margot Chapman were also married. Both couples divorced after the band broke up.

One of my favorite songs that year. Also was the year I lost my innocence. Brings back some happy memories. Never forget Lorelie in Lethbridge.

Funny. Yes. I went to lunch from work one day and got some afternoon delight. As a matter of fact, this song was playing on the radio as I was driving to my hunny bunny's apartment. After that, afternoon and morning delight became my favorite daytime past time. Night time was extra special too. Free, free, free.

The song was inspired by Clyde's restaurant lunch menu called "Afternoon Delight", you'll notice they rhymed it with appetite. Clyde's is in Wash DC. Eaten their many times. Booty was not on the menu.
