Love to Love You (And Tonight Pigs Will Fly) has the funky cowbell right form the start and cool swagger of a guitar chord progression while Pye Hastings sings dark lyrics such as "When we'd ride to a dock on bended knee / But you'd just smile and gently shake your head / And put a hole through me so I was dead ". The piano and guitar driven power chords yet Pye's mellow vocals make this commercial pop and avant garde rock; listen to the very catchy, two step chorus with it's hoedown hip swing of a melody making it very dance friendly. The breakdown drumming pattern and basic chords of his album made it far more commercially viable then there prior work, listen to the smooth organs and lead guitar solos are so pleasant to the ear and streamlined rhythms.
