Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can tell by the way he talks
Straight as an arrow
Struttin' like a bigshot when he wa-a-a-alks
So good lookin' he makes me weak
I dream about him in my sleep
Though I've known him for just a wee-ee-ee-eek
He-ee's unbelievable-oh-woh-oh
He's got somethin' I wa-ant
And I'm gonna get it right away
I want his kissin'
And the tender lovin' words he'll say-ay-ay-ay
I'd like to wrap him up and take him home
Chain him down so he'll never roam
Let him know that he's mine alone, oh-woh-oh
He's unbelievable
He-e's unbelievable
He's so much older than I, woh-oh-yeah
He's such a groovy looking guy-uy
An unbelievable guy-uy
Take me now, give me all your love
This is the moment of my lifetime
I've been dreaming o-o-o-of
Come on baby, don't you be so slow
The night is young, you don't have to go
Stay in my arms 'cause I love you so-oh-oh-oh
You're unbelievable
You're unbelievable
Come on baby, don't you be so slow
The night is young, you don't have to go
Stay in my arms 'cause I love you so-oh-woh-oh
You're unbelievable
You're unbelievable
You're unbelievable, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
You're unbelievable
You're unbelievable, yeah
You're unbelievable
Diane Renay's song "Unbelievable Guy" is about a young woman's infatuation with an older man. The lyrics are about her immediate attraction to him, as well as her desire to be with him. The man is portrayed as confident and charismatic, with the woman feeling weak in his presence. Despite having known him for only a week, Renay expresses her desire to have him all to herself, to keep him close and never let him go.
The song's lyrics paint an image of a woman who is willing to do whatever it takes to be with the man she wants. They suggest a sense of urgency and impatience in her pursuit, as she longs for his kisses and tender words. The repeated refrain "He's unbelievable" conveys her astonishment and awe at his presence.
Perhaps the most striking line in the song is "He's so much older than I". This line is important because it reinforces the power dynamic in the relationship. Renay's character is young and inexperienced, while the man is older and more worldly. This adds an element of danger and excitement to the situation, especially in the context of 1960s pop music, where age differences between partners were not always as taboo as they are today.
Overall, "Unbelievable Guy" is a simple yet effective song about a young woman's infatuation with an older man. The lyrics capture the excitement, impatience, and awe that often accompany a powerful attraction, while also exploring the power dynamics at play in such relationships.

Great driving cut. There's the usual brash Crewe production, but it features the tougher Renay vocal performance. It would seem quite rare, since I've never come across this song before, and I research this genre of music pretty thoroughly. Thank you, ckc, for posting this.

I actually had a Facebook conversation with Diane Renay a few months ago. she told me that "Unbelievable" was supposed to be the "A" or hit side but everyone liked Navy Blue so that side got the airplay.

This was the flip side of her huge hit "Navy Blue" in1964 -- and should have been a hit in it's own right!
Janice Worthen
I agree.
Belvin Sweatt
this IS a good song
Robert Cohen
Co-written by Larry Santos who had a big late '70s or early '80s hit with "We Cant Hide It Anymore".
