People in Love

People in Love is the third single, done by British band 10cc, taken from their fifth album, "Deceptive Bends". Since band member Eric Stewart sang that song in a jazzy big-band/pop style like Fats Domino, Helen Humes from the Count Basie Orchestra from the late 1930s and early 1940s, Ivie Anderson from the Duke Ellington Orchestra from the early 1930s and Charlie Palloy, their ballad is in the style of British pop singer, Leo Sayer. Though it was a good hit that did well on the charts, it did not receive a prize. Unfortunately it didn't become a follow-up as a sequel to "The Things We Do for Love", so the bad news is it should have been a bigger hit. It's a shame that this song did a poor job, so it didn't go anywhere when it never had a chance to make it big on the Billboard Hot 100 and instead 10cc remained as a two-hit wonder of the mid-'70s as a soft rock group for "I'm Not In Love" and "The Things We Do for Love" from the soft rock genre.
