Love Is in the Air - John Paul Young - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The catchy disco anthem "Love Is in the Air" was released in 1977 by Australian singer John Paul Young. The brainchild of esteemed songwriters George Young and Harry Vanda, the song was specifically written as a follow-up to the singer's previous hit "Standing in the Rain," which had enjoyed great popularity in both Germany and the Netherlands. Stylistically speaking, the song embodied the upbeat, carefree spirit of the disco era, evoking universal themes of love and jubilation. It was released in December 1977 as the lead single from his 1978 studio album of the same name and became a massive worldwide hit, reaching Number 3 on the Australian Kent Music Report, Number 5 on the Official UK Singles Chart, and Number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100. "Love Is in the Air" won Most Popular Australian Single at the 1978 King of Pop Awards and a remix of the song was later featured in Baz Lurhmann's 1992 Golden Globe-nominated directorial debut, Strictly Ballroom. Produced by David Hirschfelder, the remix version peaked at Number 3 in Australia and also broke the Top 10 in Denmark and New Zealand.
