Buster Benton (July 19, 1932 – January 20, 1996) was an American blues guitarist and singer, who played guitar in Willie Dixon's Blues All-Stars, and is best known for his solo rendition of the Dixon-penned song "Spider in My Stew." He was tenacious and in the latter part of his lengthy career, despite the amputation of parts of both his legs, Benton never stopped playing his own version of Chicago blues.
Arley Benton was born in Texarkana, Arkansas.
Whilst residing in Toledo, Ohio, during the mid-1950s, and having been influenced by Sam Cooke and B.B. King, Benton began playing blues music. By 1959, he was leading his own band in Chicago. During the 1960s, local record labels, such as Melloway, Alteen, Sonic, and Twinight Records released several Benton singles, before in 1971 he joined Willie Dixon. Indeed, a lack of opportunity in the early 1960s meant that Benton gave up playing professionally for several years, and he worked as an auto mechanic. Benton's earlier work was an amalgam of blues and soul, which he confusingly dubbed 'disco blues'. However, according to Music journalist, Bill Dahl, "in the late 1970s, when the popularity of blues music was at low ebb, Benton's recordings, particularly for Ronn Records, were a breath of fresh air."
In romantic relationships, falling in love is the concept of moving from a feeling of neutrality towards a person to one of love.
The use of the term "fall" implies that the process is in some way uncontrollable and risky - as in the phrases "to fall ill" or "to fall into a trap" - and that it leaves the lover in a state of vulnerability.
It may also reflect the importance of the lower brain centers in the process, which can lead the rational, accounting brain to conclude (in John Cleese's words) that "this falling in love routine is very bizarre....It borders on the occult".
"Factors known to contribute strongly to falling in love include proximity, similarity, reciprocity, and physical attractiveness", while at the same time, the process involves a re-activation of old childhood patterns of attachment. Deep-set psychological parallels between two people may also underpin their pairing-bonding, which can thus border on mere narcissistic identification".
"Falling in Love" is the first single by the American post-disco/R&B trio, Surface, released in the United Kingdom and the United States in 1983 by Salsoul Records.
The song reached number #84 in the Billboard R&B chart in summer 1983.
"Falling in Love" was written, produced and arranged by David "Pic" Conley and Toni Byrd.
"Falling in Love (Uh-Oh)" was the fourth single released by the American band Miami Sound Machine led by Gloria Estefan on their second English language album, and ninth studio album overall, Primitive Love.

I don't know what it is but I think I'm falling in love
I don't know what it is and I sure don't know how
But you filled my heart with butterflies I'm falling in love...
My doctor says I need no cure this time
That everything's alright and I am fine
But my friends don't agree
They say I'm not the one I used to be
And it makes me wonder wonder wonder
Why I smiling all the time the only thing
I have inside my mind is a picture of you
And it's there no matter what I do
No matter what I do not know....
I don't know what it is but I think I'm falling in love
I don't know what it is but when I close my eyes
You are the one I'm dreaming of
I don't know what it's but I'm floating in the sky
I don't know what it is and I sure don't know how
But you filled my heart with butterflies I'm falling in love...
Seems like all my problems went away
I start to make the most of everyday
So I spend them with you no one makes me feel the way you do
And it makes me wonder wonder wonder about the pain
I get inside everytime
That you're not by my side you have opened a door
I have never felt this way before
And I want more I don't know....
I don't know what it is but I think I'm falling in love
I don't know what it is but when I close my eyes
You are the one I'm dreaming of
I don't know what it's but I'm floating in the sky
I don't know what it is and I sure don't know how
But you filled my heart with butterflies
When we are walking I get to hold your hand
And that makings me proud,
I'm screaming out loud I, I am a happy man
And when we're looking up on a clear blue sky
You give me a kiss,
I wonder who is THIS LUCKY GUY....
I don't know what it is but I think I'm falling in love
You are the one I'm dreaming of
I don't know what it is but I think I'm falling in love
I don't know what it is but when I close my eyes
You are the one I'm dreaming of
I don't know what it's but I'm floating in the sky
I don't know what it is and I sure don't know how
