Feels Like I'm In Love Lyrics


My head is in a spin
My feet don't touch the ground
Because you're near to me
My head goes round and round
My knees are skakin' baby
My heart it beats like a drum

It feels like
It Feels Like I'm In Love

Ain't been this way before
But I know I'm turned on
It's time for something baby
I can't turn off
My knees are skakin' baby
My heart it beats like a drum

It feels like
It feels like I'm in love
My knees shake
My heart beats like a drum

It feels like
It feels like I'm in love
My knees shake
My heart beats like a drum

Ooh baby Ooh baby Ooh baby
My head is in a spin
My feet don't touch the ground
Because you're near to me
My head goes round and round
My knees are skakin' baby
My heart it beats like a drum
It feels like
It feels like I'm in love
My knees shake
My heart beats like a drum

Ooh baby Ooh baby
Ooh baby Ooh baby

Feels Like I'm In Love
  • Ray Dorset, who was the lead vocalist for Mungo Jerry, wrote this for Elvis Presley, who was one of his idols. Unfortunately, Elvis' untimely death ruled this out and the song ended up as the B-side of a Mungo Jerry single released in France. In the book 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh, Dorset explains: "I wrote Feels Like I'm In Love in 1977 with Elvis Presley in mind and even recorded it Elvis-style on my demo. My producer, Barry Murray, was about to send it to Elvis when he got a phone call saying Elvis had died. After that, I kinda put it to bed for a while. Kelly Marie had a few minor hits in France and had been hanging around our office a bit. I thought she had a good voice, so I asked her if she wanted to record the song."
  • This was originally released 18 months earlier but it failed to chart. It then became a northern club hit before finally topping the UK charts.
  • Kelly Marie was born Jacqueline McKinnon in Paisley, Scotland. She was known as Keli Brown, winning the TV talent show Opportunity Knocks 4 times under that name. She enjoyed European success when "Who's That Lady With My Man" won her a French gold disc and made many European charts. Her management thought this song could be the record to break her in the UK and they bought the rights to the song.
  • When this hit #1, Ray Dorset became one of the select group of singer/songwriters whose compositions had been #1s for themselves and other performers. In 1970 his own group Mungo Jerry topped the UK chart with "In The Summertime" then "Baby Jump."
  • The 46 weeks this spent on Billboard's Dance/Club Play Songs chart made it the longest-charting titles all-time on the tally.
