Paul Politi

Paul Politi is a successful American songwriter[1] famous for his collaboration with singer and songwriter Barry White.[2]

Politi and White cooperated in writing songs for the African American singer Felice Taylor during the mid 1960s. Various songs co-written for her include "It May Be Winter Outside (But in My Heart It's Spring)" in 1967, the follow-up "Under the Influence of Love". Both were later covered by Love Unlimited, a protegée band established through Barry White's initiative and both becoming hits in the United States. The international fame came though through "I Feel Love Comin' On" co-written by Politi and White. The song became a big hit for Taylor in the United Kingdom also in 1967.

Other Politi songs include "Those Oldies but Goodies (Reminds Me of You)" by Little Caesar & the Romans co-written by Politi and Nick Curinga as early as 1961 and "I'm So Glad That I'm a Woman" by the female trio Love Unlimited.

Politi also co-wrote most of the songs on Barry White album The Message Is Love in 1979. Three songs written by Politi and White charted on US R&B chart, "Any Fool Could See (You Were Meant for Me)", "It Ain't Love, Babe (Until You Give It)" and "Love Ain't Easy".
