“I’m Not In Love” is a song by British group 10cc, written by band members Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman in 1975. Written mostly by Stewart as a response to his wife’s declaration that he did not tell her often enough that he loved her.
The original recording is a super-complicated and technologically advanced production, and I did not know that when I recorded this classic.
Rene, that was beautiful! I see you’re from Seattle, and it looks like you’re recording in a guitar store. Wondering if I could stop by and get some lessons, song ideas or other tips from you.
Wow, that was so good Rene. Outstanding guitar play and vocal and what a terrific arrangement of this classic song. 10cc have an incredible back catalogue and this song is one of my favourites.
Your version could be recorded, released as a single and played on the radio.
Hi Rene, I’m a bit speachless at the moment. That was extraordinary. Played and sung at a level I will most probably never reach (but that’s ok ). Fantastic performance . Thanks so much for sharing .
Oddly, I’m in a bar in Katong at the moment, and as I was reading this, they were playing that exact song.
I’m going to catch up with the OP’s performance later, because it’s too noisy here.
But that is one of my favourite songs and, I really like 10CC (I had their album “Deceptive Bends” as a teenager) and I’ve seen the video on how the original song was made, back in the days of analogue tape and it was an amazing effort that would be fairly simple today with modern technology.
Thank you so much, @Malz !
The original is quite a complex recording.
I am so glad that I did not know how complex 10ccx’s original is, or I might have not tried this plain acoustic recording.
You are so appreciated!
respectfully,
Rene

I’m in the Redmond/Woodinville area. I get together with a couple of Justin students over here every now and then. We vary in experience, and I think you’re more advanced than we are, but you’re welcome to join us if you’re interested. We’ve been working on Fleetwood Mac’s Landslide recently.
