So Strange
The Jesters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So strange but it's true
That I'm in love with you
So in love am I

I'm in love with a mysterious
As when you say you care
You like to seem serious
That's why I love you so

Stars, build a sky
Lonely to fly
So in love am I

I'm in love with a mysterious
As when you said you cared
You make me feel delirious
That's why I love you so

So strange but it's true




That I'm in love with you
So in love am I

Overall Meaning

The Jesters' song "So Strange" is a classic love song that speaks about the unique and intricate nature of love. The singer opens the song with the words, "So strange but it's true, that I'm in love with you," indicating that even though love can be a mysterious thing, he is sure about his feelings. He goes on to express his intense emotions, saying, "So in love am I."


The song is all about falling in love with someone who is mysterious, someone who likes to appear serious but also makes the singer feel delirious. When the person says they care, it is as though the stars in the sky have built a new world for the singer to inhabit. The person is lonely to fly with, but the singer is so in love that he does not even mind.


Overall, the song portrays the idea of finding love in the most unlikely places and how the feeling can take over our brains and hearts, leaving us in a state of ecstasy. The Jesters use soothing melodies and emotionally expressive lyrics that help to build a romantic atmosphere and make the listener feel the intensity of love.

JUST AS GOOD AS GOLD!!..Thank you soooo very much for posting and sharing this "very rare and hardly heard anymore" doo-wop gem that spent only 1 week on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, peaking at #100 back on the week of July 15, 1957 for The Jesters...should've been a MUCH bigger hit in my humble, personal opinion! I thoroughly enjoyed listening...and the sound quality is TOP- NOTCH too! Take Care! Ms. Elizabeth📻🎤🎵🎸🎧💿📟

One of the great groups from NYC. They came out on the Rumble album in earlier sixties.

On the Rumble album you had the Jesters, Paragons, Cointinentals aks Quinns, and Lovenotes whose female signer has been Mrs. Gary US Bonds for many decades. Great album and another was The Paragons meet The Jesters.
