Me and You and a Dog Named Boo

single by Lobo

"Me and You and a Dog Named Boo" is the debut single by Lobo. Written by Lobo under his real name Kent LaVoie, it appears on the Introducing Lobo album.

Composition

Lobo recalls: "I was working on several songs, including a tune about traveling around the country with this girl, and I was trying to rhyme 'you and me.' Now 'me and you' would have been easier, but I was trying to do it with proper grammar.

I couldn’t find anything to rhyme that fit what I wanted to say in the song.

Lobo wikipedia biography of elizabeth taylor Roland Kent LaVoie (born July 31, ), better known by his stage name Lobo (which is Spanish for wolf), is an American singer-songwriter who was successful in the s, scoring several U.S. Top 10 hits including "Me and You and a Dog Named Boo", "I'd Love You to Want Me", and "Don't Expect Me to Be Your Friend". [1].

Finally, after I got back home to Florida, I decided to turn the phrase around to 'me and you.' I was thinking about it, sitting in a room that had a big sliding glass door overlooking the back yard. My big German Shepherd dog: Boo, came running around the corner and looked in at me. I said: 'Well, now, that’s kinda freaky.

How about putting 'a dog named Boo’ into the song?” That’s literally how it came about. All of a sudden the song really started coming together. I hadn’t been to any of the places mentioned in the song except Georgia, but I just kept putting in places that sounded far away like Minneapolis and L.A."[4]

Impact

The single peaked at number 5 on the Hot and was the first of four of his songs to hit number 1 on the Easy Listening chart, where it had a two-week stay at that top spot in May [5] The song also reached number 4 in the UK Singles Chart in July [6] and spent four weeks at number 1 in New Zealand.[7]

Internationally, "Me and You and a Dog Named Boo" was Lobo's second most successful song among more than 15 single releases, surpassed only by "I'd Love You to Want Me" the following year.
