"Afternoon Delight" is a hit song recorded by Starland Vocal Band, known for its close harmony and sexually suggestive wordplay. It was written by Bill Danoff, one of the members of the band.

"Afternoon Delight" charted well in Quebec and peaked at #5 in New Zealand. In Australia it was a #6 hit. (Adelaide radio station 5KA was first to pick up the single, making it #1 in South Australia.) In the UK, it reached #18 and was used as theme to a weekly show of the same title on London's Capital Radio, hosted by Duncan Johnson, and on an afternoon show using the same title, presented by Stuart Linnell, at Mercia Sound in Coventry. It became a #1 U.S. Hot 100 single on July 10, 1976[2] and earned a gold record.
