Songfacts®:

  • This was written by Cee-Lo Green of Gnarls Barkley fame. It was intended for Pussycat Dolls' second album, Doll Domination, but didn't make the cut. Lead singer Nicole Scherzinger told The Sun August 29, 2008: "It was great to work with Cee-Lo again as he put us on the map. He was the one who did 'Don't Cha,' our breakthrough hit. Love Gun is such a different style and flavor. We're a performance group as well as a singing group so visually, when we heard the song, we could imagine how we'd perform it. When the concept of the Pussycat Dolls first started, there were a lot of Sixties influences around so it makes sense to do a '60s-style song."
