"Long, Slow Kisses" is a song recorded by American country music artist Jeff Bates. It was first included on his 2003 debut album Rainbow Man. Bates re-recorded the song in 2004 and released it as the first single from his second album, Leave the Light On. He co-wrote the song with Gordon Bradberry and Ben Hayslip.[1]
In his review of the album, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic wrote that the song "stumbles in its attempts at seduction."[1] Robert Loy of Country Standard Time was more positive, saying that "for such a young man, he certainly sounds as if he knows of whence he sings."[2]
