Love T.K.O.

"Love T.K.O." is a song written by Cecil Womack & Gip Noble, Jr. for soul singer David Oliver appearing first on the Oliver album Here's To You in 1980.

However it is mainly associated with R&B and soul artist Teddy Pendergrass, who recorded the song that same year on his 1980 album, TP and released it as a single that same year. It reached No. 2 on the Billboard R&B chart and No. 44 on the Billboard Hot 100.

It has been covered by several artists, including Deborah Harry, Regina Belle, Hall & Oates, Bette Midler, Boz Scaggs, Lambchop, Michael McDonald and Seal. Cecil & Linda Womack recorded the song themselves as Womack & Womack and it appeared simply as "T.K.O." on their debut album Love Wars in 1983.

In 2006, Pendergrass' version of the song was featured in the popular video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, on fictional radio station VCFL. It was also used in 2005 video game Fahrenheit (aka Indigo Prophecy). DJ Spooky referenced the song in his essay entitled "Groove Theory" in URB. Artist Ahmad Lewis used the melody for a remix of his 1994 song, "Back in the Day" from his self-titled album Ahmad. In 1995, R&B group Xscape would sample it for their remix of Who Can I Run To. The song was sampled also by Kenny Lattimore and Total.

It is one of several sites within a 6 km radius of Holmul and is southeast of Holmul across the Holmul River. The entire Holmul complex is located within Northeastern Guatemala in the central lowland Peten region. The area receives an average of 80 in. (2000 mm) of rainfall annually and temperatures generally range from 70-95 F (25-35 C) similar to the neighboring southern lowlands. The site of K’o sits at about 200–250 meters above sea level on the edge of the highland plateau. This placement allows the site easy access to wetlands and water sources. In fact, K’o elevation places it above several aguadas (water sources for various sites in the area) that branch from the Holmul River.
