  • From the episode "Lucy's Last Birthday," Ricky sings the often unknown lyrics to the "I Love Lucy" intro theme.
    Lyrics:
    I love Lucy and she loves me
    We're as happy as two can be
    Sometimes we quarrel but then
    How we love making up again
    Lucy kisses like no one can
    She's my missus and I'm her man
    And life is heaven you see
    'Cause I love Lucy
    Yes, I love Lucy
    And Lucy loves me

      Luana I can't see another person playing Rickys part. There s no way it would have been. They didn't want Desi Arnaz right away. The producers had to be talked to. into. No one else could be play ed him as good because he was her real husband.

      Lucy & Desi weren't acting in love, it was the real thing. Lucy wanted Desi to play her husband because they wanted to be together & save their marriage. Nobody else wanted Desi because he was Cuban. Desi said on toast of the town in 1954 "If it wouldn't have been for Lucy, I would've stopped trying a long time ago."

      mint Unfortunately, yes. In fact the day after the last episode aired, their divorce was advertised in the paper. Edie Adams, one of the guest stars on the last episode, recalled how high the tensions were between Lucille and Desi. She went on to say that she regretted choosing to sing “I Will Always Love You,” due to the Arnaz/Ball feud, but it was too late to pick another piece.

      Well, I believe what you're saying, but too bad Ricky was a womanizer and didn't love her with a mature unselfish love. He had to go around with prostitutes and cheat on her with so many women, and to top it off he'd say "I don't know why she gets upset. They're just hookers" Well too bad I always say. I love the show and I love them as a couple. Too bad and really sad how it really ended

      Based on what I've read, the divorce was based in real marital issues but was also mostly for appearances. Desi's extramarital affairs were so numerous and well known by that point that it was becoming a liability for Lucy's image- as a woman who was staying with him through all of that. In reality she was having affairs herself and they continued to work together for years after their divorce. Today maybe they could have been a happily open couple.

      True, they did divorce; but the love never truly went away. The last conversation they had before he died was on November 30, 1986, the day that would have been their 46th wedding anniversary and two days before his death. They told each other that they loved each other. Even if the marriage didn't last, the love did.

    When they ask me a definition of true love, Desi and Lucy is always my answer. People can say what they'd like, but it is obvious that the only woman Desi ever loved was Lucy. The sweet way he looks at her as he begins to sing her theme, is beautiful. You can sense the love they both had for one another just by the way their eyes lit up whenever they were together like this. If that is not true love, then I don't know what is.

      if you are going to look to show-biz for 'true love', Lucy and Desi may not be the best example. Lucy divorced Desi, and ended up married to Gary Morton. Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, by contrast, spend virtually their entire lives married to each other, with nary a scandal to hurt their images.

    The "I love Lucy" show was almost an exact copy of "My Favorite Husband," which was a classic radio show from the 30s'to early 40s.
    If you listen the My Favorite Husband, there are slight changes. Changes to account for Ricky being Cuban, band leader, having an accent. Aside from that- the story lines are the same.
    They were absolutely in love -at first. Lucy had to stand her ground -he had to be on the show.
    They knew what happened to couples that were in show business and how critical it was to the marriage that They work together and not separately.
    I feel that Lucy ALWAYS loved him. When they finally split-it was after so much heartache.
    I feel Ricky (or Desi) truly loved Lucy during the "Cuban Pete" duet with Lucy, in the Anniversary episode when he sing the Theme song to her, and when he sings "We're having a baby."
    To be there is no acting the eyes of someone in love.
    I'm a big Lucy fan, I have the collection, and learned so much from the information on the DVDs.
    You can find "My Favorite Husband" episodes free online.
