"I'll Never Fall in Love Again" is a popular song by composer Burt Bacharach and lyricist Hal David that was written for the 1968 musical Promises, Promises. Several recordings of the song were released in 1969; the near popular versions were by Dionne Warwick (released Dec 1969), who took information technology to number vi on Billboard magazine's Hot 100[1] and spent three weeks topping the magazine's list of the most pop Easy Listening songs,[ii] and Bobbie Gentry (released July 1969), who topped the United kingdom chart with her recording[3] and also peaked at number 1 in Australia and Ireland,[four] number 3 in South Africa[5] and number v in Norway.[6]
Promises, Promises [edit]
In the fall of 1968, Bacharach and David were in Boston for previews of Promises, Promises, the new musical for which producer David Merrick had asked if they would write the score, and Merrick realized, "We're missing a song in the middle of the second human action, and what we need is something the audience can whistle on their manner out of the theater."[seven] But around this time, Bacharach was hospitalized with pneumonia and wasn't able to sit at a piano to write the music until after he was released. By that fourth dimension "Hal had already come up up with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What practise yous become when you kiss a girl? / Yous get enough germs to grab pneumonia / After you exercise, she'll never telephone yous.'"[8] When he finally sat with the lyrics in forepart of him, he recalls, "I wrote the melody for 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' faster than I had ever written whatever song in my life."[7] The surge of creativity paid off. "We came in with the song the next morning, and information technology went into the show a couple of nights after. 'I'll Never Fall in Beloved Again' became the outstanding hitting from the score and pretty much stopped the bear witness every dark."[7] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on Dec 1 of that year,[9] and the song was originally performed as a duet between the characters played by Jill O'Hara and Jerry Orbach as they ruminate on the diverse troubles that falling in love brings. They recorded it for the original Broadway cast album.[10]
Chart hits [edit]
The offset recording of "I'll Never Fall in Love Once again" to reach any of the charts in Billboard was past Johnny Mathis, whose cover debuted on the magazine'due south Like shooting fish in a barrel Listening chart in the event dated May 17, 1969, and reached number 35 over the class of 3 weeks there.[11] Bacharach's own version, which was sung past a female chorus, overtook the Mathis release after a May 31 debut on that same chart and got equally loftier every bit number 18 during its nine-calendar week stay.[12] It besides peaked at number 93 on the Hot 100 during the 2 weeks it spent there in July.[13] Bobbie Gentry entered the UK singles chart with the song the post-obit month, on August 30, and enjoyed one of her 19 weeks in that location at number one.[3] She also peaked at number ane in Ireland,[4] number 3 in South Africa,[14] and number 5 in Norway.[6]
The almost successful version of the song to exist released as a single in the US was by Bacharach-David protégée Dionne Warwick, whose recording made its showtime appearance on the Hot 100 in the outcome dated December 27, 1969, to start an 11-calendar week run that took information technology to number six.[1] The January three, 1970, upshot marked its get-go of 11 weeks on the mag'south Easy Listening chart, where information technology enjoyed three weeks at number one,[2] and a 7-calendar week stay on their list of the l Best Selling Soul Singles in the The states began in the side by side issue and included a peak position at number 17.[15] Her version also spent four weeks at number 1 on the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart[16] and reached number three on the Canadian popular chart.[17] The Dionne Warwick version is noted for Burt Bacharach playing a counterpoint melody on the piano, which is heard at the fading Coda department of the vocal.
In 1972, the Liz Anderson recording of the song peaked at number 56 on Billboard's Hot Country Singles chart.[18] In 1990 the Scottish popular rock band Deacon Blueish opted for a slower organisation on the duet between their vocalists Ricky Ross and Lorraine McIntosh as role of the four-song EP Four Bacharach & David Songs. The song was the main radio pick for the EP, which reached number two in the Britain and became Deacon Blueish's biggest hit in the UK (the EP was listed as the unmarried rather than the song on Britain chart).[xix] [20] The song besides reached number ii in Ireland,[4] and number 72 in the Netherlands.[21]
