Big cat walking on the wild side
Big cat talking on the wild side
He knows he looks the way he should
He's got something making him feel good
He's got the style, he's got the sway
He's a million miles away

She cat walking on the wild side
She cat talking on the wild side
She don't smile, she don't look
She don't do laundry and she don't cook
She's not listening to what he says
She's not making any promises

He just wants to love someone
She just wants to love someone
He just wants to hold someone
She just wants to love someone

Big cat walking on the wild side
Big cat stalking on the wild side
She cat walking on the wild side
She cat talking on the wild side
He's thinking how she's not so tough
Could be a diamond sitting in the rough
She's staring out to empty space
She's wondering how long he will take

He just wants to love someone
She just wants to love someone
He just wants to hold someone
She just wants to love someone

Air Supply are a soft rock duo formed in 1975. From 1980-1985 the band had a string of hits that charted well in the US, Canada, New Zealand and their homeland Australia.

After Graham Russell’s music was ignored by bandmates in two previous bands, he auditioned for and won a part as a chorus member in a Melbourne production of Jesus Christ Superstar. This is where he met and teamed up with Russell Hitchcock, who had missed the JCS auditions in Sydney – so he flew to Melbourne and landed a spot in the same chorus.

The two submitted a demo of two songs – “Love And Other Bruises” and “If You Knew Me” to CBS Records and got signed. The former went to #3 in Australia, so they assembled session musicians, released their self-titled debut album, and toured Australia.
