Hey There Delilah


Hey There Delilah by Plain White T's is a pop rock track from their 2005 album All That We Needed. Originally released as an EP, it gained wider recognition as a single in 2007 with added string instrumentation. The song's acoustic-driven arrangement and catchy melody make it an accessible yet rewarding piece for electric guitar learners.

  • The song features a distinctive fingerpicking pattern that translates well from acoustic to electric guitar.
  • String instrumentation was added to the later single version, expanding the original arrangement.
  • Plain White T's released the track across multiple albums and formats between 2005 and 2007.
