Hello, I Love You - The Doors Lyrics
Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game
Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game
She's walking down the street
Blind to every eye she meets
Do you think you'll be the guy
To make the queen of the angels sigh?
Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game
Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game
She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long
When she moves my brain screams out this song
Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see, you fool?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello
I want you
Hello
I need my baby
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello
| Jim Morrison wrote this in 1965 after seeing a beautiful woman
walking on the beach. He thought up the song and wrote it that night. |
| Many fans considered this a sellout to Top 40 music. It was very
radio-friendly, and not as deep or offensive as previous doors songs. |
| One of 6 songs recorded for a demo the Doors recorded in 1965.
Robbie Krieger had not yet joined the band. |
| The music is similar to The Kinks' "All Day And All Of The Night."
The Doors had to pay royalties from the British single to The Kinks
after Ray Davies sued them. |
| Krieger ran his guitar through a fuzz box to get a distorted effect
like Cream's "Sunshine Of Your Love." |
| The line "Queen of the angels" refers to Los Angeles, the "City of
Angels." The Doors were from L.A. |
| Written 3 years before it was recorded. |
| The first Doors song that was successful in Europe.
|
| The R.E.M. song "Pop Song '89" is a play on this. Instead of talking
about sex, they talk to the girl about politics and the weather. |
