Correction
[edit]"Afternoon Delight" is not the song used over the end credits in "The Big Lebowski." That song is called "Dead Flowers."
Suggestive?
[edit]- can we be a little more specific than "sexually suggestive"?--168.122.219.157 08:16, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Would have thought we can, but don't need to. Seems about right to me. Britmax 08:47, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
Cultural references
[edit]Might the reference about Homer Simpson's tattoo not be more relevant in the Starland Vocal Band page? --Shadebug 18:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yep, you're right. I've moved it :-) Roaming27 06:11, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Another Movie
[edit]Sleep Easy, Hutch Rimes was also a movie this song was featured in. It's actually in the opening credits to be exact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.154.225.2 (talk) 07:33, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
This info seems reasonable
[edit]Afternoon Delight is quite simply all about daytime love making, the naughty type. It was also the name of a song sung in the 70s by a group called the starland vocal band. These words date back to around 130BC in Ancient Egypt, when people along the nile respectively went out in the afternoon to the banks of the nile and made love to their partners. I'm talking about having a bowl of chicken soup with a rubin, then making dirty rubin love. Now days we would see this as a mass orgy, but back then it was quite common. Afternoon Delight coming from the Ancient Egyptian words Aftaron, meaning before night, and delita, meaning sex. Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite and the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting. Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight. (Ref: Casanova M-Baby., 11 August 2004., http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=afternoon+delight). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jcdc boomer (talk • contribs) 13:57, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
Sounds good, but the phrase "carnal knowledge in the afternoon" made me laugh uncontrollably. 76.235.185.248 (talk) 18:08, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
B side of Afternoon Delight
[edit]I think that the B side had a song called California morning or California day.... can anyone find that out? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.198.113.130 (talk) 22:56, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
- the album has the song "California Day" as track 5, so thats probably what you are thinking of.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 19:19, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
Afternoon delight is slang for daytime sex
[edit]Why is this not mentioned in the article? Wikipedia is not censored so why can't we just come out and say what the term the song is named after means in slang? I don't know which came first, the song or the slang term, but surly we can mention that is currently a slang for daytime sex. --2601:644:400:8D:6A5B:35FF:FEB9:AB8 (talk) 05:13, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
