"I Really Love You" is a song written by Leroy Swearingen,[1] and originally recorded by his Steubenville, Ohio, vocal group called The Stereos[2] in 1961.

Background

The lead singer on the original recording was Ronnie Collins. This song featured the percussion sounds of people walking in rhythm, first heard in the introduction, as well as between the verses and the Bridge section, and finally heard in the outro before the song's fade. The bass vocal is heard singing the doo wop nonsensical syllables, as well as the Bridge section of the song.

Chart performance

The record, issued on Cub Records, a subsidiary of MGM Records, reached number 29 on the Billboard Top 40 chart and number 15 on the R&B chart.
