Pesma koja je počela kao romantičan zapis o traganju za pravom ljubavlju, postala je neka vrsta gospel klasika. Njen autor, gitarista benda 'Foreigner',

Mick Jones, prateće vokale poverio je gospel horu i tako je podigao

na viši nivo, omogućujući joj da zauvek ostane na listama omiljenih pesama slušalaca širom sveta.

'The New Jersey Mass Choir' je u studiju pokušao da snimi svoje deonice, ali je rezultat bio prazno, standardno pevanje, bez magije koju je Mick očekivao.

Pevači su potom stali u krug, uhvatili za ruke, pomolili se i snimili vokale koji nisu dodatno doterivani.

Oni su bili prvi gospel hor koji je na muzičke liste, zahvaljujući pesmi

'I Want To Know What Love Is', dospeo na prvo mesto.

Kasnije su snimili svoju verziju pesme koja je dospela na 101 mesto, dok je legendarni hit 'Foreignera' u isto vreme, u februaru 1985. bio na prvom!


I gotta take a little time, a little time to think things over

I better read between the lines, in case I need it when I'm older


Now this mountain I must climb, feels like the world upon my shoulders

Through the clouds I see love shine, it keeps me warm as life grows colder


In my life there's been heartache and pain

I don't know if I can face it again

Can't stop now, I've traveled so far, to change this lonely life


I want to know what love is, I want you to show me

I want to feel what love is, I know you can show me


I'm gonna take a little time, a little time to look around me

I've got nowhere left to hide, it looks like love has finally found me


In my life there's been heartache and pain

I don't know if I can face it again

Can't stop now, I've traveled so far, to change this lonely life


I want to know what love is, I want you to show me

I want to feel what love is, I know you can show me

I want to know what love is, I want you to show me

(And I want to feel) I want to feel what love is

(And I know) I know you can show me


Let's talk about love, I want to know what love is

The love that you feel inside, I want you to show me

And I'm feeling so much love, I want to feel what love is

No, you just can't hide, I know you can show me

I want to know what love is (let's talk about love), I know you can show me

I want to feel it too, I want to feel what love is

I want to feel it too, and I know and I know, I know you can show me

Show me love is real, yeah, I want to know what love is.
