"Hello, I Love You" is a song by The Doors from their 1968 album Waiting for the Sun, and was release as a single that same year. This song, along with the album, were considered more commercial than the Doors' previous efforts, leading many to believe that the band had sold out.
In the liner notes to The Doors Box set, Robbie Krieger has denied the allegations that the song's musical structure was stolen from Ray Davies, where a riff similar to it is featured in the song All Day and All of the Night. Instead, he said the song's vibe was taken from Cream's song "Sunshine of Your Love".
The song has been covered by The Cure, Eurythmics, Simple Minds and Adam Ant.
