"I Think I Love You" is a 1970 single by The Partridge Family, featuring David Cassidy. The lyrics heavily reference love-shyness. In 1991 Voice of the Beehive covered the song, pop singer Kaci did a cover in 2002, Less Than Jake did a rock/ska cover in 2002 for the Scream soundtrack. Paul Westerberg covered it in 2004, and in 2005, so did Constantine Maroulis and Katie Cassidy. David Cassidy himself did a soul remake of the song in 2003, for the album "Touch of Blue."
In 1983, Ism's hardcore punk rendition of I Think I Love You topped the New Music charts at #6 (compiled from a composite of radio, club and retail reports) (CMJ New Music Report, June 6, 1983) however, the controversial Partridge Family spoof artwork on the cover led to major record retailers banning the single for sale.*[1] Their followup 1983 debut album A Diet For The Worms also included the song and entered the #65 slot on Progressive Radio's Top 100 (CMJ, New Music Report, January 16, 1984).
The original Partridge Family song has been more recently featured on radio shows such as "The Lost 45's" of WZLX in Boston which replayed songs which were once very popular, but rarely heard.
