My Little Red Book
Love · The Definitive Rock Collection [2006]
The minute that you said goodbye
I thumbed right through my little red book
I wasn't gonna sit and cry
And I went from A to Z
I took out every pretty girl in town
They danced with me and as I held them
All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...
There ain't no girl in my little red book
Who could ever replace your charms
And each girl in my little red book
Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of
Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
Where can love be I need you so much
All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...
Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
It's haunting me I need you so much
All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you
All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh no
My Little Red Book
Love's "My Little Red Book" stands as a quintessential example of their late-1960s garage rock energy, delivered with the raw, unpolished intensity characteristic of their 2006 compilation "The Definitive Rock Collection." The track captures the band's signature blend of psychedelic influences and gritty, blues-based rhythms that defined their era. As a recording from this period, it reflects the DIY ethos of the time, featuring a driving rhythm section and vocal delivery that prioritizes emotional immediacy over technical perfection. The song serves as a testament to the band's ability to channel the chaotic spirit of the mid-to-late sixties, offering a direct link to the broader landscape of British rock music that emerged from the underground scene.
