Talking Tune - "Float On" by The Floaters

***This post is dedicated to Stephanie over at not the oxygen, and her hilarious stories about the online dating profiles.***

The boyfriend and I had the pleasure of hearing this song this morning on the Music Choice R&B channel.  Truth be told, it cracks us both up.  But it's also currently playing a loop in my brain.

"Float On" is another song with talking bits, but the main parts of the song are spoken.  But, for the full effect, I must post the entire song.

Aquarius, Libra, Leo, Cancer
Ralph, Charles, Paul, Larry

Float, float on
Float on, float on
Float, float, float on
Float on, float on
(3X)

Aquarius, Libra, Leo, Cancer
Ralph, Charles, Paul, Larry

Aquarius and my name is Ralph
Now I like a woman who loves her freedom
And I like a woman who can hold her own
And if you fit that description, baby, come with me

Take my hand, come with me, baby, to Love Land
Let me show you how sweet it could be
Sharing love with me, I want you to

Float, float on (Come on, come on, come on, baby, yeah yeah)
Float on, float on (Ooh, ooh, baby)
Float, float, float on
Float on (Float with me), float on

Libra and my name is Charles
Now I like a woman that's quiet
A woman who carries herself like Miss Universe
A woman who would take me in her arms
And she would say, "Charles, yeah"
And if you fit that description
This is for you especially

Mmm take my hand
Come with me, baby, to Love Land
Let me show you how sweet it could be
Sharing loving with me, I want you to

Float, float on (Girl, yes)
Float on, float on (With Charles)
Float, float, float on (Ooh, yeah)
Float on, float on

Leo and my name is Paul
You see I like all women of the world
You see to me all women are wild flowers
And if you understand what I'm sayin'
I want you to

Mmm take my hand
Come with me, baby, to Love Land
Let me show you how sweet it could be
Sharing love with me, I want you to

Float, float on (So float with me, baby)
Float on, float on (Yeah)
Float, float, float on (Float with Paul, y'all)
Float on, float on

Cancer and my name is Larry, huh
And I like a woman that loves everything and everybody
Because I love everybody and everything
And you know what, ladies, if you feel that this is you
Then this is what I want you to do

Ooh, yeah, take my hand
Let me take you to Love Land
Let me show you how sweet it could be
Sharing your love with Larry, listen

Float, float on (You better float with me now)
Float on, float on (Float on)
Float, float, float on (Yeah, yeah)
(You better float on)
(Float on)
(Ah)

I freakin' LOVE this song!

Firstly, it's like a sung personal ad.  Secondly, what is up with their lady requirements?  Charles, the Libra, is the one that worries me the most.  A woman that's quiet???  Really?

My and my boyfriend's personal favorite Floater, however, is Larry, the Cancer.  For one, we happen to tune the majority of the song out when it's playing, but for some reason, Larry sticks out.

So, without further ado, here's a video of this amazing song, complete with powder blue suits and synchronized dance moves.  Enjoy!
