"I Think I'm in Love with You" is a song written by Cory Rooney and Dan Shea, and produced by Rooney for Jessica Simpson's debut album Sweet Kisses (1999). It contains a sample of singer-songwriter John Cougar's "Jack and Diane" (1982) and was released as the album's third and final single in summer 2000 (see 2000 in music). The song's protagonist declares "Boy I think that I'm in love with you, got me doin' silly things when it comes to you".
Los Angeles radio station KBIG-104 produced a mixed version of "I Think I'm in Love with You" with a few samples of "Jack and Diane" lyrics and the same ending as the earlier song. Simpson recorded a Spanish version of the song titled "Talvez Es Amor".
[edit] Music video
The single's video begins with Simpson and her friends meeting a group of men unloading furniture from a van, before leaving and being followed by the men along the highway to an amusement park, where both groups spend the day together.
[edit] Chart performance
It was more up tempo than Simpson's previous singles and became a moderate hit, reaching number twenty-one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 largely on the strength of its radio airplay; it reached the top five on Billboard's Top 40 Mainstream chart and achieved success on the Adult Contemporary and Rhythmic Top 40 charts. It was released only as a 12" single in the U.S., and sales of those at the time could not compete with regular CD/CD maxi singles. Some cancelled shipments of CD maxi singles for the song made it to stores and were subsequently sold. The single was more successful outside the U.S., reached the top ten in Australia and the top twenty in Canada and the United Kingdom.
