In the Delfonics' Unsung episode, the writer said that his infant son couldn't say ' I love you' but would say 'la la la' instead & that's where he got the inspiration for the title. It's so sweet when you find out stories behind the music. ❤
Motown music has always been my genre .... Im 73 years young, and when I hear the Delfonics, it brings tears to my eyes of wonderful memoreis of my youth .... God bless !
Dennis, the LATE great Thom Bell composed and produced this...this was his FIRST Big hit. Thom would go off and have a LONG and GREAT career/ONE of the most successful composers, music arrangers and music producers of ALL TIME... he passed in LATE 2022.

A classic that shall never, age. A sensational masterpiece that will be played continuously from one generation to the next. This song shall remind the future listeners of creativity, and brilliance from "The Delfonics."
This used to be my grandmas favorite song , she passed about three to fours ago and I miss her so much. Everyone called her Lolly growing up , she had the purest and kindest heart of anyone I knew. RIP grandma I know you’re up there somewhere looking over us❤️

How can a twenty young years old feel such chills for these times of jam? Becuz she knows good music 🎶. Food to my soul 🥺
Because music from the past I'd better than the junk today.
The best music to listen to and just remember the golden 80,90’s-2024.🙏🏽
This has always been one of my favorite oldies.
Doesn't get much better than this!
No, nothing is better than this!!!!
Best decade ever

Fr the 1960s....it's still beautiful.
La la means I. Love. You.
In New Orleans, and listening to this for breakfast, and bawlin' my eyes out for the memories.
Many guys have come to you
With a line that wasn't true
And you passed them by
(Passed them by)
So you're in the center ring
And their lines don't mean a thing
Why don't you let me try
(Let me try)
Now I don't wear a diamond ring
I don't even have a song to sing
All I know is
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Oh, baby please now
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
If I ever saw a girl
That I needed in this world
You are the one for me
(One for me)
Let me hold me in my arms
And thrill you with my charms
I'm sure you will see
(You will see)
The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you
Listen to me
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Oh, baby baby
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you, yes to you
Listen to me
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
You know, you'll have to understand now
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Come on and take my hand
Ok
Thanks
A masterpiece!!!
Sure you're right👀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
