Recommendation

Should you sing it?

“Afternoon Delight” works best when you have singers who can blend and are comfortable playing the joke straight. The harmonies need coordination and the humor can become awkward if overacted. Look elsewhere if the event is family-focused, professional, or sensitive to sexual innuendo.
