Dirty hippies? My sister was a hippie and she was anything but dirty. She seen Jimi Hendrix at Pirates World in 1967 when he opened for the Monkees. She was at the Diner Key Auditorium in 1969 at the infamous Doors concert in Miami when Jim Morrison was arrested. Being a hippie in the 60s allowed her be there for these 2 historical events. And yes she went to Woodstock in 1969. Hippies were not dirty, at least not any of the hippies I knew as a kid in South Florida (Ft Lauderdale to be exact).

The Zombies do a much better version than People which was forced on most of The U.S. in the 60's., which leads to the inevitable question: Why? Rod Argent was a great song writer, so it is amazing the bass player (Chris White) wrote this! Also, Colin Blunstone was just a fabulous lead singer! The Zombies were a very under rated British Band! Their material holds up quite nicely to this day! ROS!

@shulamit1991 It was not used in the film, just seems that the user wanted to combine the song with the scene (I love that video by the way). The clip is from the 1970 film Hoffman starring Peter Sellers and Sinead Cusack.

Was "I love you" used in a movie? If so, what movie is this? There's a clip on Youtube of "I love you" stereo version being played in a movie scene

Great original song although the version sung by 'People' sounds more 'psychedelic'. Anyway, both versions of this song are very rarely played on mainstream FM Oldies stations nowadays!

Thanks fo uploading this Great Oldies song from the 60's. Heard this on the Merle Hay Mall (Des Moines) background music today. I remembered this catchy song, but couldn't remember the group or title. Did a search on the repeated "I Love You" lyrics and found out the Zombies had this 1965 hit. And YouTube had a few uploads of it. Liked your upload the best.

@Rster462 Yeah, I know. I'm a guitar playing dorkus with glasses.

@misterdirtyknees In those days ( late 50's thru mid 60's ) it was considered very cool to wear black rim glasses, thanks to Buddy Holly. Give them a break.., there were no designer frames back them !

[Rster462]

The accoustic guitar and electric piano playing in unison sounds fantastic. I actually like both versions of "I Love You"... The Zombies version and Peoples version !

My God....I remember a local band from Maine..."The Reasons Why" made a 45 of this back in the 60's THEN! you were "Famous" for having a 45 record out....LOL! Remember the "Pal Hops!" "Battle of The Bands!" Now Im dating myself....OUCH!
