"Feel Like Makin' Love" is a song by English supergroup Bad Company. The power ballad originally appeared on the LP Straight Shooter in April 1975 and was released as a single in August of the same year. It was named the 78th best hard rock song of all time by VH1. The song, along with other Bad Company music, was featured in the 2001 film Scotland, PA. Origin Paul Rodgers started to come up with the lyrics at a camp in California while touring the US with Free. He was 19 years old. After several years, Rodgers played it to Bad Company guitarist Mick Ralphs who threw in that big chord in the chorus - the muted 'duh-duh' that marks the shift from country ballad to chest-beating rocker. Reception Cash Box said that the "strong two-pronged attack from Ralphs' guitar and Rodgers' vocals make the track an excellent choice to follow 'Good Lovin'.'" Ultimate Classic Rock critic Matt Wardlaw rated it as Bad Company's 2nd best song, saying that "a muscular guitar riff from Mick Ralphs then adds extra emphasis to the bluesy passion of Rodgers' vocals." Classic Rock History critic Janey Roberts also rated it as Bad Company's 2nd best song. Classic Rock critic Malcolm Dome rated it as Bad Company's 3rd best song, praising the "unmistakable guitar opening", "the strolling introduction, opening out into a more strident chorus" and "Ralphs’ stunning guitar pattern." Charts Personnel Paul Rodgers – lead and backing vocals, rhythm guitar Mick Ralphs – lead guitar Boz Burrell – bass guitar Simon Kirke – drums Pauline Henry version In 1993, the song was covered by British-Jamaican former the Chimes singer Pauline Henry, titled "Feel Like Making Love". The single reached No. 12 in the United Kingdom, No. 13 in Australia and Denmark, and No. 17 in New Zealand. On the Eurochart Hot 100, it peaked at No. 26. Critical reception Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "On this smashing solo debut, she wraps her well-honed chords around a shiny Bad Company classic rock gem. The result is a guitar-driven pop/hip hop shuffler drenched in the kind of sweet diva drama that top 40 and R&B radio love to actively pump." In his weekly UK chart commentary, James Masterton said, "A much better showing from the former Chimes vocalist after her debut single "Too Many People" disappointed many by only peaking at No.38."
