Baby, I Love You
Ronettes · Presenting The Fabulous Ronettes [1963]
woa-oh, woa-oh oh oh
have I ever told you
how good it feels to hold you
it isn't easy to explian
and though I'm really trying
I think I may start crying
my heart can't wait another day
when you kiss me I've just got to say
(baby I love you)
come on baby
(baby I love you)
oh-ee baby
baby I love only you
woa-oh, woa-oh oh oh
I can't live without you
I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way
oh I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
oh tell me that you feel the same
(baby I love you)
come on baby
(baby I love you)
oh-ee baby
baby I love only you
woa-oh, woa-oh oh oh
have I ever told you
how good it feels to hold you
it isn't easy to explian
and though I'm really trying
I think I may start crying
my heart can't wait another day
when you kiss me I've just got to say
(baby I love you)
come on baby
(baby I love you)
oh-ee baby
baby I love only you
woa-oh, woa-oh oh oh
I can't live without you
I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way
oh I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
oh tell me that you feel the same
(baby I love you)
come on baby
(baby I love you)
oh-ee baby
baby I love only you
woa-oh, woa-oh oh oh
Baby, I Love You
Released in 1963 on the album Presenting The Fabulous Ronettes, "Baby, I Love You" stands as a quintessential example of the group's signature sound. The track features the distinctive harmonies of Ronnie Spector, who often took the lead vocals on the group's most beloved material. As a staple of the New York Dolls and early girl group repertoire, the song captures the upbeat, danceable energy of the mid-1960s pop scene. Its enduring appeal lies in its catchy melody and the seamless interplay between the three sisters, cementing the Ronettes' status as pioneers of the genre. The recording remains a defining moment in the history of vocal harmony and girl group music.
