    Default SOLVED:Song early 80s

    Hi All, when I was a teenager I loved this song. I got it recorded in a tape, but years later i lost it. It was a disco song...more or less.It was sang by a woman with incredible voice.
    I have written in my brain part of the main part of the song which said:

    'Love, is the way to touch my heart
    Is the way to reach my soul
    what I need ever and ever (....)'

    The song, repeated 'Happiness', so recently I thought it could be easy to find but I am not sure 'Happiness' is the title....I heard it for the first time in 1983 or perhaps 1984, drums sounded everywhere in the song....Somebody recorded it in a tape for me, and it was the maxi single version so the song was round 6 minutes or so...

    Does anybody know title and singer of the song I recall from my youth?

    It would be great!!

    Thanks in advance

    A catchy song! No wonder it remained in your memories. It's called "Big Funk - Happiness"

    Ha, ha!!!. That's it!!. 1983.....Thanks a lot!!. 30 years since I didn't hear it......This is the single version. However, what is the title of the song? Big funk - Happiness?. Or Big funk is the name of the band and title is Happiness?. I haven't find anything about a band called Big Funk....do you know?.
