"Super Duper Love (Are You Diggin' on Me)" is a song by Willie "Sugar Billy" Garner, released in 1975 as a single from his 1975 album Super Duper Love. It interpolates parts of Aretha Franklin's 1968 version of Young Rascals' song "Groovin'". It was made famous when English singer Joss Stone covered the song's part one for her debut album, The Soul Sessions (2003), from which it was released in May 2004 as the second and final single under the title "Super Duper Love". A live performance of James Brown's 1966 song "It's a Man's Man's Man's World", retitled "It's a Man's Man's World", is included as a B-side to the CD single.
