Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me for Me) - Blessid Union of Souls

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIrOXakukgQ]


A geek's dream! This is the song that's all about the girl who's all about her guy because of who he is...right? Or, is that just what he thinks? Does he really look like Tyson Beckford, with the charm of Robert Redford, or does he just think that, or is he saying that she likes him despite the fact he's not any of those thigns? Well, regardless, it's a catchy song and the perfect example of pop-rock-radio-tunes. It's got a good hook and a good riff to go with a clever idea.


The song appeared on the band's third album, Walking Off the Buzz and hit #33 on the Hot 100. It's become the band's best known song. Besides the titular actor, the song mentions other celebrities including Robert Redford, Cindy Crawford, and the fictional character, Dirty Harry.
