(Can't Live Without Your) Love and Affection

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"(Can't Live Without Your) Love and Affection" is a single by Nelson, sons of singer Ricky Nelson. It was released in 1990 on Geffen Records and backed with "Will You Love Me".

It was based on a crush on Cindy Crawford.

The production on the single and its B-side, "Will You Love Me", was done by David Thoener and Marc Tanner. It also appears as the first track on Nelson's album, After the Rain.

It became a number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1990, the duo's only chart-topper.

It was also critiqued on season 2 of Beavis and Butthead where the boys thought they were "chicks who look like guys" and thought they were Ozzy Osbourne's granddaughters or Elvis's children.
