Cherry, Cherry

Neil Diamond's 'Cherry, Cherry' is a vibrant celebration of youthful love and the irresistible allure of a captivating partner. The song's lyrics paint a picture of a young man who is utterly enchanted by his girlfriend, Cherry. Her charm and energy are so powerful that they move him in ways he can hardly describe. The repetition of 'She got the way to move me' emphasizes the profound impact Cherry has on him, both emotionally and physically.

The song captures the essence of a carefree, passionate relationship where the couple is deeply connected and in sync. The line 'Tell your Mama girl I can't stay long, we got things we gotta catch up on' suggests a sense of urgency and excitement, as if every moment together is precious and filled with anticipation. The mention of making their own lighting instead of needing bright lights symbolizes their ability to create their own joy and excitement, independent of external influences.

'Cherry, Cherry' also touches on the theme of freedom and spontaneity in love. The lyrics 'No, won't tell a soul where we gone to, girl we do whatever we want to' highlight the couple's desire to escape from the constraints of the world and enjoy their time together without any interruptions. This sense of liberation and the thrill of being with someone who truly understands and excites you is at the heart of the song. Neil Diamond's energetic delivery and the upbeat tempo further enhance the feeling of exhilaration and joy that comes with being in love with someone as special as Cherry.
