I heard a disco song in a coffee shop this morning and it’s driving me crazy. The chorus stars with an “aaaaahhhh” like the “aaaahhhh . . . FREAK OUT!” song, but that’s not it. After the aaahh, it’s something like “Baby!! [beat beat] [something something something] so in love with you!!” [and then it repeats with slightly different lyrics] I know this isn’t much to go on, but the problems is that it’s impossible to search for since the lyrics are so generic. Sounds like a wedding song. Thanks. ---

From reading the OP I knew that was the one you were looking for. There’s lots of good covers of this song too. ---

Balls. That was what came to mind for me immediately and you ninjad me in your own thread. Funny that the wedding/disco thing was a clue on both sides of the pond. ---
