@@vrokortac9457 so what if they beat em to it? They can add what ever songs they want in the movie. And Star lord has some good ass taste in music and this is a good song. And croods isn’t even a super hero movie
It’s an animated film about a prehistoric family in the Stone Age, trying to find a new home and survive. This song is from the sequel ‘The Croods: A New Age’. Its a pretty good movie
Last day of school in June of 1970 a girl got off the school bus with my sister, I didnt know her but she was the prettiest girl I ever laid eyes upon, but I never thought I would see her again. However 3 months later our family moved, she lived across the street from where we moved to, this song came out that month and my first teenage love was born. I will never forget you Janet!
When I was in second grade the little boy who sat next to me would sing this song to me every day. He would do it every morning before lunch....what a sweet memory, if you haven't guess I am over fifty...still a sweet memory.
The guy that played the harpsichord is the same guy that played piano on bridge over troubled water. He was also the bass player in the band Bread. His name is Larry Knechtel.
[ Seriously. It’s the perfect 70’s pop song ] And so was "Love Grows where my Rosemary Goes", "Brandy, You're a Fine Girl", Temptation Eyes, and "Midnight Confessions"
Yep the apocalypse has been hard but I made a safe house from the aliens there werid looking they have two mouths and crawl and long arms but that one hell of a ship but yeah it been hard for all of us there coming got to go.
When I was a boy back in Elizabethton KY, I loved my soulmate Jackie who lived somewhere close to Rineyville and at the age of 10 we sang this together. We tutored other children with speech impediments using the Partridge Family Album. Phonics was what it was called back then. Great Memories. I only wish I could remember Jackie's last name, never knew it and have always wondered how her life turned out. My parents came and got me out of school one day and we had to fly to Germany the next day. I never got a chance to tell my love goodbye. I hope she remembers that I will always love her. Soulmates after 50 years. Ben Adler aka Ben McKay.
I'm a 49 yr old Black dude and on EVERYTHING 🎶 "This morning I woke up" and thought about this song! My childhood sitcoms. What a wonderful time to be a kid ❤️💯
Wow 67 !! I thought he was younger. Dying of Dementia at 67 is still scary. Makes me shutter every time i enter a room and forget what i came in there for.
This is actually a beautifullly written song......I love both the lyrics and the music. David's voice is incredible.....and the Wrecking Crew is absolutely perfect in the drums, Hal Blaine......Harpsichord, Larry Knechtel.....Bass, Joe Osborne, etc. Fantastic song!!
Watching those silly actors pretending to 'perform' this on "The Partridge Family" was a total crock! David Cassidy was good, but he should have had some real musicians on that show.
I was sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread I think I love you (I think I love you) This morning I woke up with this feeling I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room I think I love you (I think I love you) I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for I think I love you isn't that what life is made of Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way I don't know what I'm up against I don't know what it's all about I got so much to think about Hey, I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for I think I love you isn't that what life is made of Though it worries me to say I never felt this way Believe me you really don't have to worry I only wanna make you happy and if you say "hey go away" I will But I think better still I'd better stay around and love you Do you think I have a case let me ask you to your face Do you think you love me? I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you
This is the song that really took 1970 by a storm! The song was released prior to The Partridge Family show which debuted in September. I was 8, and my sister, cousin and I loved the show so much (along with The Brady Bunch - another winner from 1970) that we held “shows” in our basement and pretended to be The Partridge Family while charging family and friends $0.25 for entry! What a magical era...
probably the greatest "bubble gum" song that hit the charts.....was a "monster' hit in 1970 spawning many articles in Tiger Beat and 16 magazine....and many lovesick young teenage girls
When I was growing up in the 1950s and 1960s I had a best friend who's dream was to move to California and work in the music bus. iness. True to his word that what he did. Worked with people like Micheal jackson in the studio recording them. I still talked to him long distance from Ohio and one day he told me that he got a call saying that they needed him to work with over during some songs. He told me that it was david Cassidy and he told me that of all the people that he worked with recording it was david Cassidy that had the strongest voice and so clear. After they finished david Cassidy bought him dinner. Told me he was a nice guy. This was in LA after years before david Cassidy died. My friend and I saw Dylan in 1965, the stones in 1966 and the Beatles in 1966 in Cleveland here. Great memories and still a great friend even though we had our ups and downs.
When I was 11 this was the biggest hit in Australia, heard it everywhere and now at 63 it brings back great memories. I remember listening to this heaps of times in my father's Ford Falcon when he was driving us around in Melbourne, Australia!
I was 10 years old and so excited when I got this album for Christmas, I dang near wore it out in the next couple months I played it so much. The corners are bent, the shape of the record shows through the cover but I feel 10 years old again when I play it and you can't put a price on that.
This song reminds me of a hilarious experience I had. I was in a bar with my dad a few years ago. We were about to get a few drinks, then this crazy old lady just popped out of nowhere. This song was playing in the background. The old lady, clearly drunk, asked us about this song. We told her it was the partridge family who sings this song. Then she said "Oh. You mean David Cassidy? Ooooh... What a hunk of a man!". Then this is where the hilarity starts. The lady literally starts to sing horribly off key, so loud that she could wake the dead, not even remotely close to the chorus "I THINK I LOVE YOU! SO WHAT I'M SO AFRAID OF?!" After we got out of the bar, my dad and I were laughing so hard, that we couldn't stop until we got home.
Lyrics: I was sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread I think I love you (I think I love you) This morning I woke up with this feeling I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room I think I love you (I think I love you) I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for I think I love you isn't that what life is made of Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way I don't know what I'm up against I don't know what it's all about I got so much to think about Hey, I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for I think I love you isn't that what life is made of Though it worries me to say I never felt this way Believe me you really don't have to worry I only wanna make you happy and if you say "hey go away" I will But I think better still I'd better stay around and love you Do you think I have a place let me ask you to your face Do you think you love me? I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you
Thanks for doing this. My fiancé Lia played me this song when she asked me to marry her ❤ !! She died 09/2922 and I am heartbroken 💔 forever now. I miss her terribly every day too. 😢 I pray I can join her sooner rather than later. She was only 37 at the time and I was 57, this was 1 of her new favorite songs.
Since I’ve been blessed with my son, I dance with him and sing this to him. He’s 9 months old and I’m 38. My estranged mother used to sing this to me, but I just make memories of this sing for my son and myself.
Never tire of these songs. I loved Shirley Jones. She was a beautiful woman with a beautiful soprano vocalist. If you haven't seen Oklahoma, you should. She was about 19 years old. Her first movie role. Also, a truly good actress. The Chyanne Social Club, also stared Henry Fonda, and James Stewart. A cute little comedy western.
I didn't know Jack Black is in an actual band. I think that it's a good thing for old music to get re-introduced to a new audience. There are still a lot of old hidden gems.
Wrecking Crew just nailed it... I don't think a more perfect take could exist. That moment right at the end of the bridge 1:48 is like a musical orgasm. The bass eighth notes and Hal Blaine's signature quiet to loud drum fill. Then you get those super straight, close backing vocals, it's *so* beautiful
@@tomrucco6490 Thanks to the documentary people are getting to know who these talented people were. But many of them have been passing lately. I wish I could meet Carol Kaye before it’s too late.
@@profile2047 Carol Kaye is a legend, obviously, but she actually didn't play bass on this song - it's Joe Osborn. The bass is subtly and tastefully propelling the song forward throughout its entirety, but at 2:33 it really begins stealing the show during the song's final refrain.
I was born in 99 but this song and the partridge family tv show was a great part of my childhood. Sigh. Rest In Peace, David. Thanks for the good memories.
Being a mediocre musician myself the 2008 Wrecking Crew documentary opened my eyes to what exceptionalism in creativity these musicians exhibited. Virtually every song that got me through the Wonder Years during the sixties had the touch genius provided by them. -The Wrecking Crew- Each one a creative genius in their own right. Put together a phenomenal band of awe inspiring men and women behind the curtain. Well, all except Tommy Tedesco's TV appearence on the Gong Show.
RIP DC. You were the reason my Mom finally caved and let me grow my hair long in 1972 when I was 11! Good thing because within 10 years it had all fallen out!
This is the BEST song on the album! This "haunting" sound, as some describe it, just made it sound even better. I have never associated "haunting" or any other derogatory term to this song. That's why "The Partridge Family version was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1970." A lot of Rock songs are not that good, but there are many in each category that are Great! I love Psychedelic Rock, Hard Rock, Mellow Rock, Disco, Grunge, Punk Rock, Heavy Metal, etc. And, for The Partridge Family genre, "I Think I Love You" is one of their best!! (I still have this album.)
Man….No matter what kind of day I’ve had, no matter if it’s been or bad, no matter if I’m exhausted, no matter if I’m happy or sad, the minute I hear this song start I instantly become just so much more happy and care free
The Partridge Family - ♥ I Think I Love You. ♥ I'm sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread I think I love you (I think I love you) This morning I woke up with this feeling I didn't know how to deal with And so I just decided to myself I'd hide it to myself And never talk about it and didn't I go and shout it When you walked into the room I think I love you (I think I love you) I think I love you so what am I so afraid of? I'm afraid that I'm not sure of A love there is no cure for I think I love you...isn't that what life is made of? Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way I don't know what I'm up against I don't know what it's all about I've got so much to think about Hey.. I think I love you so what am I so afraid of? I'm afraid that I'm not sure of A love there is no cure for I think I love you...isn't that what life is made of? Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way Believe me, you really don't have to worry I only wanna make you happy and if you say hey go away I will But I think better still I'd better stay around and love you Do you think I have a case? Let me ask you to your face Do you think you love me? I think I love you, I think I love you, I think I love you I think I love you, I think I love you Repeat and fade
This was a very well written song back in 1970. I was in HS and it really makes me wonder where have all the years gone. I remembered these lyrics as if it was yesterday.
"...so what am I so afraid of?" What a great lyric to put us back together after Chvid-19. Thank you T.Romeo. Thank you D.Cassidy for the great expression! "I Think I Love You" is one great song performed by an unappreciated, yoked, but true musician! rip
Listened to this song on my transistor radio with my ear plug late at night when i was suppose to be sleeping. Kept changing channels so i could catch it again. Lots of memory"s.
I love this song listen in 2019. I love the fact that the music in its self tells a story. He starts of in a dilemma and not knowing what to do with it and bit by bit hes like screw it 'I love you'. That slight eerie music in the verses I feel matches the emotion of anyone in love with someone and not knowing if they feel it in back. Especially a teenage boy with his emotions running high.
70 year old Rocker checking in. When this tune came out I happened to have the nicest stereo system of all the gang. EVERYONE loved this! Didn't matter if they were die-hard Scorpions, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Robin Trower, Judas Priest, Rush fans, whatever...
Godspeed. This is such a good, well-crafted pop song, and the fact that it's your enduring legacy is something to be proud of. God rest your soul David.
How does a song pop into ones brain and then manage to evoke so many joyous memories. The. 70’s were an influential, revolutionary time and I am proud to say I was an adolescent/teenager in that amazing era in the extraordinary 20th century .
I love David Cassidy. I was a kid when this show came on and as a teen my mother bought me the Teen Beat Magazine and the 17 magazine and I had all of David Cassidy's pictures over my bed and his posters all over my room. And when it was the old Garden State Art Center in Holmdel, NJ they had him in concert as the Partridge Family and of course being a big fan my parents bought me tickets and took me to see him and got pictures of me in front of the bus. That was the good old days of being a kid of the 70's.
This man, David Cassidy and this song was the beginning of my singing career!! Thank you David, Shirley, Susan, Danny and the rest! It still stands as a great song today in nearly 2020!
