Pat Boone - Friendly Persuasion (Thee I Love)

The British invasion ended Boone's career as a hit maker, though he continued recording throughout the 1960s. In the 1970s, he switched to gospel and country, and he continued performing in other media as well. He is currently working as the disc jockey of a popular oldies radio show and runs his own record company which provides an outlet for new recordings by 1950s greats who can no longer find a place with the major labels.

In 1997, Boone released 'In a Metal Mood' - ' No More Mr. Nice Guy', a collection of heavy metal covers. To promote the album, he appeared at the American Music Awards in black leather, shocking audiences and losing his respectability among his largest constituency, conservative Christians.


In 2007 Pat Boone was inducted into the Hit Parade Hall of Fame.

Boone and his wife live in Los Angeles, California. They are members of The Church on the Way in the San Fernando Valley. His one-time neighbour was Ozzy Osbourne and his family. Boone's cover of Osbourne's song "Crazy Train" became the theme song for The Osbournes. (It appears on The Osbournes Soundtrack.) Sharon Osbourne once said that Boone "never complained once" about living next door to their less-than-traditional family.


Pat Boone - Friendly Persuasion (Thee I Love)


Thee I love, more than the meadow so green and still
More than the mulberries on the hill
More than the buds of a May apple tree, I love thee

Arms have I, strong as the oak, for this occasion
Lips have I, to kiss thee, too, in friendly persuasion

Thee is mine, though I don't know many words of praise
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove
And come with me, for thee I love

Friendly persuasion

Thee is mine, though I don't know many words of praise
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove
And come with me, for thee I love

  • see the original movie for a better perspective

  • Good idea... I have never seen it ...

  • Thank y'all I'm going to sing that song myself too, very soon...

  • Is this miss Refbatch swimming in here?

    As example for my last movie's description (at the top right of the screen), I inspired myself with her so unique literary form she used for her videos titles.

  • That's many of RefBatch tiny clips out of her confuse videos... I got about 5 of them together in a smooth flow... with the song to give her a piece of mind since she thinks that everyone hates her, so she become aggressive... I hope this song will calm her down...

  • Did you add the ducks and the birds to the music or where there in the song already?

  • That's right, I've added the ducks and the birds' to give the outdoorsy feeling, I'm just training myself to create my own videos later when I get a camera, mine was stolen out of my purse at work...

  • Amazing how a song and images can be merging with a soft approach as you've done, I must admit that you have the ability to make this volcanic temperamental woman look so romantically tranquil in this pond with this persuasive song... you're a soothing whiz-kid!! BTW I've never hear of Pat Boone before...

  • Love this song Scarletface08 and he sings it so perfectly. Thank you.
