The single was included on Warwick's album, Reservations for Two, and was her sixth No. 1 hit on the Adult Contemporary chart.

"Love Power" was Osborne's only Number One Adult Contemporary hit (although he had previously reached No. 2 on that chart), and it would be Osborne's last appearance in the Top 40 of the U.S. Pop Singles chart as well, since "She's On the Left" (his only number-one R&B hit) would only reach #48 on that same chart the following year.

gollark: If you want to help people, then, well, you're in a reasonably rich country with the weight of a giant productive economic engine behind you, you can get money and buy malaria nets for Africans or something, which is apparently high impact per $.
gollark: You seem to have an excessively broad definition and blame it for everything.
