Title: This Guy's In Love With You
Artist: Hert Alpert



You see this guy
this guy's in love with you
Yes, I'm in love
who looks at you the way I do
when you smile I can tell
we know each other very well
how can I show you
I'm glad I got to know you, 'cause:

I've heard some talk
they say you think I'm fine
Yes, I'm in love
and what I'd do to make you mine,
tell me now, is it so?
Don't let me be the last to know.
My hands are shaking
don't let my heart keep breaking, 'cause

I need your love
I want your love
say you're in love
in love with this guy,
if not I'll just die.


This Guy's in Love with You
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"This Guy's in Love with You" is a song written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David and recorded by Herb Alpert. Although known primarily for his trumpet playing as the leader of the Tijuana Brass, Alpert sang lead vocals on this solo recording, as the song's range is narrow enough to accommodate Alpert's vocal skills.
Alpert originally sang "This Guy's in Love with You" on a 1968 television special. In response to numerous viewer telephone calls, the song was released as a single and reached #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in June of that year, remaining in the top position for four weeks. It was not only Alpert's first #1 record, but it was also the first #1 record for his A&M record label. The song also spent an impressive ten weeks at #1 on the adult contemporary chart, which at the time was referred to as the "Easy Listening" chart. For the single's B-side, Alpert chose "A Quiet Tear," an album track from his first album in 1962, The Lonely Bull.
Eleven years later Alpert would become the first (and only) artist to reach the top of the Hot 100 with both a vocal performance and an instrumental performance ("Rise", 1979).
