Opening Lines: You see this guy's, this guy's in love with you.
Comments: "This Guy's In Love With You" was Herb Alpert's first #1 song in the summer of 1968 (and Alpert wouldn't visit the #1 position again until his instrumental hit, "Rise" in the fall of 1979). But it was written by Alpert, it was written by his friends, the award winning duo of Hal David and Burt Bacharach.
