Overview Edit

"I Think We're Alone Now" is a song written by Ritchie Cordell. It was initially a 1967 hit for American recording artists Tommy James & the Shondells, reaching #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 during a 17-week stay. The recording was produced by Cordell and Bo Gentry.

Rock critic Lester Bangs called the single "the bubblegum apotheosis". Cordell wrote or co-wrote many songs for James, including "Run, Run, Baby, Run" (the B-side to "I Think We're Alone Now"), the follow-up single "Mirage," and 1968's "Mony Mony."

"I Think We're Alone Now" has since been covered on numerous occasions. In 1987, a version by Tiffany reached #1 in the US, UK, Canada and New Zealand. Several other cover versions have charted as well, including those by The Rubinoos (#45 US, 1977) and Girls Aloud (#4 UK, 2006).
