Real Love is a 1985 Dolly Parton album. It was her 27th solo studio album. The album was produced by David Malloy (best known for his work with Eddie Rabbitt), and was Parton's last studio album for RCA, her label for the previous eighteen years. The album included the #1 country singles "Real Love" (a duet with Kenny Rogers that also reached #91 on the U.S. pop charts) and "Think About Love", as well as the #3 country single "Don't Call it Love" and the top twenty #17 country single "Tie Our Love (In a Double Knot)", as well as a cover of Nanci Griffith's "Once in a Very Blue Moon".

Real Love was previously released on CD the official album's release date but came out of print until it was part of Parton's 2007 European tour and was re-released by BMG Germany (a division of Sony/BMG) in a two-fer CD. It was paired with 1983's Burlap & Satin.

    Dan Hill

    Daniel Grafton "Dan" Hill IV (born 3 June 1954) is a Canadian pop singer and songwriter. He had two major international hits with his songs "Sometimes When We Touch" and "Can't We Try", a duet with Vonda Shepard, as well as a number of other charting singles in Canada and the United States.

    Early life and career

    Hill was born in Toronto, the son of social scientist and public servant Daniel G. Hill, and brother of the author Lawrence Hill and the late novelist Karen Hill. He studied guitar in his teens, leaving high school at 17 to work as songwriter for RCA. At one point he was working for the Ontario provincial government, delivering office supplies, while performing at the Riverboat at night. In 1975, he released his first album, Dan Hill, which produced a Canadian hit single, "You Make Me Want to Be".

    In 1977 Hill recorded the ballad "Sometimes When We Touch". He also wrote the lyrics and was assisted in the music by Barry Mann for the album from the same year, Longer Fuse, and it was released as a single. It was Hill's biggest hit, peaking at #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and leading to Hill's appearances on The Merv Griffin Show and The Mike Douglas Show. Tina Turner covered the song in 1978 on her album Rough.

    Terence

    Publius Terentius Afer (/təˈrɛnʃiəs, -ʃəs/; c. 195/185 – c. 159? BC), better known in English as Terence (/ˈtɛrəns/), was a playwright of the Roman Republic, of North African descent. His comedies were performed for the first time around 170–160 BC. Terentius Lucanus, a Roman senator, brought Terence to Rome as a slave, educated him and later on, impressed by his abilities, freed him. Terence apparently died young, probably in Greece or on his way back to Rome. All of the six plays Terence wrote have survived.

    One famous quotation by Terence reads: "Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto", or "I am human, and nothing of that which is human is alien to me." This appeared in his play Heauton Timorumenos.

    Biography

    Terence's date of birth is disputed; Aelius Donatus, in his incomplete Commentum Terenti, considers the year 185 BC to be the year Terentius was born;Fenestella, on the other hand, states that he was born ten years earlier, in 195 BC.

    He may have been born in or near Carthage or in Greek Italy to a woman taken to Carthage as a slave. Terence's cognomen Afer suggests he lived in the territory of the Libyan tribe called by the Romans Afri near Carthage prior to being brought to Rome as a slave. This inference is based on the fact that the term was used in two different ways during the republican era: during Terence's lifetime, it was used to refer to non-Carthaginian Libyco-Berbers, with the term Punicus reserved for the Carthaginians. Later, after the destruction of Carthage in 146 BC, it was used to refer to anyone from the land of the Afri (Tunisia and its surroundings). It is therefore most likely that Terence was of Libyan descent, considered ancestors to the modern-day Berber peoples.

    Real Love

    by: Twilight Singers

    We are lovers through and through
    And we made it through the storm
    I really want you to realize
    I really want to turn you on
    I?ve been searching for someone
    To satisfy my every need
    Won?t you be my inspiration?
    Be the real love that I need, yeah
    Real love
    I?m searching for a real love
    Someone to set my heart free
    Real love
    I?m searching for a real love
    Now when I met you I just knew
    That you?d take my heart and run
    Till you told me how you felt for me
    Said I?m not the one
    So I slowly came to see
    All the things you were made of
    And now I hope my dreams and inspirations
    Lead me to find some real love
    Real love
    I?m searching for a real love
    Someone to set my heart free
    Real love
    I?m searching for a real love
    A love so true, oh baby
    I thought your love was true
    I thought you were the answer
    To the questions in my mind
    Now it seems that I was wrong
    If I stay strong maybe I'll find my
    Real love
    I?m searching for my real love
    Someone to set my heart free
    Real love
    I?m searching for my real love
    So I try my best to pray to God
    To send me someone real
    To caress me and to guide me
    To know that I can feel
    Now I know I can be faithful
    I can be your arm in arm
    I?ll give you good love in the summer time
    Winter, spring and fall
    You'll have real love
    I?m searching for my real love
    Someone to set my heart free
    Real love
    I?m searching for my real love
    Real love
    I?m searching for my real love
    Someone to set my heart free
    Real love
    I?m searching for my real love
    It's real love
    It's real love
    It's real love
