About The Record:

And I Love You So, by Perry Como, is a collection of warm, romantic ballads featuring the crooner's smooth vocals on a mix of contemporary covers and standards that highlight his enduring appeal in easy listening. The title track, a cover of Don McLean's folk song, stands out as a fan-favorite and unique highlight, marking Como's successful adaptation of a modern composition into his signature relaxed style while earning a Grammy nomination for Best Male Vocal Performance. Other notable inclusions like Killing Me Softly with Her Song, For the Good Times, and Aubrey showcase his interpretive talent on popular tunes of the era, blending mellow optimism with heartfelt delivery that resonated with traditional pop audiences. Historically, the project represented a late-career resurgence for the veteran performer, underscoring his ability to connect across generations amid evolving music trends. The album itself became a major success reaching No. 1 in the UK and the hit single And I Love You So peaked at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart while hitting No. 3 in the UK.
