I've heard it as "Living is the Heart of Love," but that's only my ears.

No need to apologise. Its an easy mistake to make - especially as bootleggers have often given it the same wrong title based on mis-hearing the lyrics. They often do the same with Gangster's Moll (mistitled as Gangster's Maul) and Criss Cross Mind (misheard as Criss Cross Man), giving them titles which dont make grammatic sense.

To me Criss Cross Man makes as much 'grammatical sense' as Criss Cross Mind.
I'd always thought it was the former - cos that's what my boot (Goat's Head Reheated) said - and i assumed the criss-cross bit meant 'sexually confused' - recorded at the height of the Glam era. Made sense to me!

Interesting Gazza. I have seen that film. Isn't it later than 1972? Not sure.

The lyrics of "Criss Cross Mind" dont exactly have much depth to them, but I assume the gist of it is that the woman in the song is provoking urges in the writer which are giving him a 'criss cross mind' akin to that in the above movie plot
