"Baby I'm-a Want You" is a popular song by the American pop-rock band Bread. The single was released in October 1971 (see 1971 in music). It became the title track for the album of the same name, released in January 1972. It was one of Bread's highest-charting singles in both the U.S. and U.K. In the U.S., it reached #3 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart in December 1971, the third of Bread's four top-five hits ("Make It with You", #1 in 1970; "If", #4 earlier in 1971; and "Everything I Own", from the same album, #5 in 1972). "Baby I'm-a Want You" reached the top of the easy listening chart and rose to #14 on the UK Singles Chart in February 1972. It was certified as a gold record by the RIAA. As with virtually all of the band's well-known recordings, the song was both written and produced by the band's lead vocalist, David Gates. ==Notable cover versions== *Lettermen covered it on their 1972 album ''Spin Away'' *Engelbert Humperdinck covered it on his 1972 album ''In Time'' *Wayne Newton covered it on his 1972 album ''Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast'' *The Moments recorded a sweet soul version for their 1973 album ''My Thing'' *Shirley Bassey covered it on her 1973 album ''Never Never Never'' *John Holt covered it on his 1973 compilation album ''1000 Volts of Holt'' *Stephanie Winslow covered it on her 1981 album ''Dakota'' *Conway Twitty covered it on his 1985 album ''Chasin Rainbows'' *Jennifer Love Hewitt included a version on her 1995 album ''Let's Go Bang'' *Aaron Neville included a cover on his 2012 album ''Tell It Like It Is'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baby I'm-a Want You (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
