Performance tip

When rehearsing Baby, I Love You, mark breaths before the busier lines so the phrasing stays relaxed. Use the original recording of Baby, I Love You to mark exactly where that change happens.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

With Baby, I Love You, do not count on the room to do the work; it is better for a singer ready to own the lyric’s point of view. The song has a clearly recurring hook and fairly active phrasing. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
