"I'm Sorry" is a R&B/Soul song by the American vocal group The Delfonics, released in April 1968. The song was the Delfonics' second chart single and the follow-up to their smash hit "La-La (Means I Love You)", which went to number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100; "I'm Sorry" was quite reminiscent of their earlier hit, complete with similar-sounding "la la las". "I'm Sorry" just missed the pop Top 40 (peaking at number 42), but was a solid performer on the soul chart, hitting number 15.[1]
