Monday’s Song : Slade - Cos I Luv You [1971]

The new week starts with Slade singing the words they sung 50 years ago, when "Cos I Luv You", became the band’s first number one single. It was written in half an hour and began the successful songwriting partnership of Noddy Holder and Jim Lea, which would go on to write the bulk of Slade's material.

 


New Musical Express said the song "should satisfy both the mainstream pop and the heavy brigade", describing it as a "rousing hard-hitting number, generating bags of electricity and urgency, but nevertheless blessed with a strong melody line and a chorus".
