This day in music history.

October 9, 1974, Quincy Jones gets his first gold record for 'Body Heat'. The LP would have a hit single with the song "If I Ever Lose This Heaven'. The song is sung by Minnie Riperton.
If I Ever Lose This Heaven by Quincy Jones
If you're foolin', only foolin'
All I ask is "Why?
If you're playin', all I'm sayin'
Is feelings sure collide
If you're lyin', keep on lyin'
Don't tell the truth, don't you dare
You can't drop me, 'cause you still got me
After takin' me way up there Oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa,
I'll never be the same
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa,
I'll never be the same
When you're kind, extra kind
Then suddenly you're crossed
You're so moody, you get to me
Still can't turn you off
You're fascinating, more fascinating
Than the dark side of the moon
You're so exciting, that I'm re-writing
The book of love called "You"
Oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa, I'll never be the same
