The Isle of View is a live acoustic album by rock band the Pretenders, released in 1995. It was recorded in May during a live, televised performance at London's Jacob Street Studios. The Duke Quartet accompanied Chrissie Hynde for much of the performance. The title is a pun (same-sounding phrase or mondegreen) on the words I Love You.
