Fabian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
When I'm close to you, dear
The stars fill the sky
So in love with you am I
Even without you
My arms fold about you
You know, darling, why
So in love with you am I
In love with the night mysterious
The night when you first were there
In love with my joy delirious
When I knew that you could care
So taunt me, and hurt me
Deceive me, desert me
I'm yours, 'til I die
So in love
So in love
So in love with you, my love, am I
In love with the night mysterious
The night when you first were there
In love with my joy delirious
When I knew that you could care
So taunt me, and hurt me
Deceive me, desert me
I'm yours, 'til I die
So in love (so in love)
So in love (so in love)
So in love with you, my love, am I
The song "I'm in Love" by Fabian is a romantic ballad that expresses the singer's deep love and devotion for his lover. The first two lines of the song, "Strange, dear, but true, dear / When I'm close to you, dear," suggest that the singer is amazed at how love can make him feel so close to his partner. The reference to the stars filling the sky is a common metaphor used to describe the intensity of love.
In the chorus, the singer declares that he is "in love with the night mysterious," which may suggest that he is drawn to the magic and mystery of falling in love. He also expresses his joy and happiness in knowing that his lover cares for him, saying that he is "in love with [his] joy delirious."
The bridge of the song takes on a more dramatic tone, as the singer declares that he is willing to endure any pain or hardship for the sake of his love. He asks his lover to "taunt" him, "hurt" him, "deceive" him, and even "desert" him, but still declares his undying devotion.
Overall, "I'm in Love" is a tender and passionate tribute to the power of love and its ability to transform individuals. The lyrics convey a sense of wonder, joy, and devotion, which are enhanced by Fabian's rich, emotive vocals.

1) Fabiano Anthony Forte (born February 6, 1943, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania),is an American teen idol of the late 1950s and early 1960s. He rose to national prominence after performing several times on American Bandstand. In total, he charted 11 hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100.
abian was discovered in 1957 by Bob Marcucci and Peter DeAngelis, owners of Chancellor Records. At the time, record producers were looking to the South Philadelphia neighborhoods in search of teenage talents with good looks, and Frankie Avalon, also of South Philly, suggested Fabian as a possibility.
With songwriters Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman, Fabian released a series of hit singles for Chancellor Records including "I'm a Man", "Hound Dog Man", a #9 hit in the U.S., "Turn Me Loose" (U.S. #9), and his biggest hit, "Tiger", which reached number 3 in the U.S. charts. Other singles that charted included "String Along", "About This Thing Called Love" and "This Friendly World", which reached #12 on the U.S. charts.
His career in music basically ended after he bought out of his contract with Marcucci after signing a seven-year contract with 20th Century Fox. During the payola scandal of the 1960s, Fabian testified before Congress that his recordings had been doctored electonically to significantly improve his voice.
2) Fabian Ordorica of Los Angeles. Churning out heavy apocalyptic electro powerhouses and pop gems alike, Fabian is a multi-talented musician and producer. His songs are heavy, dark, and taking dance music in an entirely new direction. His live show is entirely original productions strung together in a non-stop, melt your face revolution. He promises to get any group of people in front of him dancing until their clothes are soaked. Since his productions are original, his live set will never get stale, and promises to get the interest of anyone seeing him play. He is a member of the Binary Family, a fast rising label of electronic musicians in Los Angeles.
3) Fabian Feyaerts is the Belgian representative at Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2012.
4) FABIAN is about
body symbolism, pop ambivalences,
classical tunes of rock history and groove.
Based in Leipzig FABIAN started in 2013.
Die Band um Sängerin Maria6668 verwandelt pulsierende Texturen in präzise Rhythmen und spielt sich dabei durch unterschiedlichste musikalische Stilistik. Schöne Melodiebögen werden auf nahezu ironische Art und Weise gebrochen und tauchen fast unbemerkt in einem neuen musikalischen Kontext wieder auf.

Fabian admitted that he could not sing and Chancellor Records fixed his voice so that he could sing and make records - This side and the flip side, "Shivaree", proves the raw voice of Fabian before his fix-up.
My My
Personally, I've defended Fabian many times simply for the fact I liked the songs he sang. His not so great singing was perfect for the songs he sang, but truth is he still couldn't sing very well even after these recordings that you say was raw and that Chancellor fixed. In fact, Paul McCartney was absolutely cruel talking about Frankie Avalon and Fabian about their singing. Now I personally heard this interview so I'm not telling you what I read or what somebody told me. I heard and seen the video on youTube maybe 7 to 10 years ago. But a couple of years ago I looked for the interview to let a McCartney fan hear it and it is no where to be found. My only conclusion is, is that McCartney got so much flack about his mean spirited verbal assault on their talent that he probably bought out the owners of that interview and took it off youTube or anywhere else. It was so disgusting how he was degrading Avalon and Fabian. Truth is Avalon could sing and the dude was talented as he played the trumpet very well. The only thing I can think of a giant of an entertainer like McCartney talking down to these guys is the fact he was jealous that they probably, especially Fabian, made it more on their looks than anything else. As if that is something new in entertainment!!!!
