"I'll Never Fall in Love Again" is a pop song past composer Burt Bacharach and lyricist Hal David that was written for the 1968 musical Promises, Promises. Several recordings of the vocal were released in 1969; the most pop versions were by Dionne Warwick (released December 1969), who took it to number 6 on Billboard mag's Hot 100[one] and spent three weeks topping the magazine'due south list of the most popular Easy Listening songs,[2] and Bobbie Gentry (released July 1969), who topped the United kingdom chart with her recording[three] and too peaked at number 1 in Australia and Ireland,[four] number 3 in Southward Africa[5] and number v in Norway.[6]

Promises, Promises [edit]

In the autumn 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 tin can whistle on their way out of the theater."[7] Simply effectually 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 time "Hal had already come up with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Fall in Honey Again,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What practice you get when you kiss a girl? / You get enough germs to catch pneumonia / Afterwards you do, she'll never phone you lot.'"[eight] When he finally sat with the lyrics in front of him, he recalls, "I wrote the tune for 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' faster than I had ever written whatsoever 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 afterwards. 'I'll Never Fall in Dearest Again' became the outstanding hit from the score and pretty much stopped the show every dark."[7] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on December 1 of that year,[9] and the song was originally performed every bit a duet between the characters played past Jill O'Hara and Jerry Orbach every bit they ruminate on the diverse troubles that falling in love brings. They recorded it for the original Broadway cast album.[ten]

Nautical chart hits [edit]

The get-go recording of "I'll Never Fall in Love Over again" to achieve whatsoever of the charts in Billboard was by Johnny Mathis, whose cover debuted on the magazine's Like shooting fish in a barrel Listening chart in the issue dated May 17, 1969, and reached number 35 over the course of three weeks there.[11] Bacharach's own version, which was sung by a female chorus, overtook the Mathis release after a May 31 debut on that same chart and got as high as number xviii during its nine-week stay.[12] It besides peaked at number 93 on the Hot 100 during the 2 weeks information technology spent there in July.[13] Bobbie Gentry entered the UK singles chart with the song the following month, on August 30, and enjoyed 1 of her xix weeks there at number one.[three] She likewise peaked at number one in Ireland,[four] number three in S Africa,[14] and number five in Norway.[half-dozen]

The most successful version of the vocal to be released every bit a unmarried in the U.s.a. was by Bacharach-David protégée Dionne Warwick, whose recording fabricated its beginning appearance on the Hot 100 in the issue dated December 27, 1969, to commencement an xi-week run that took it to number six.[1] The January 3, 1970, upshot marked its first of 11 weeks on the magazine's Easy Listening chart, where it enjoyed iii weeks at number one,[two] and a 7-calendar week stay on their list of the 50 Best Selling Soul Singles in the Usa began in the adjacent result and included a top position at number 17.[15] Her version also spent four weeks at number one on the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart[xvi] and reached number three on the Canadian pop nautical 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 section of the song.

The song was the main radio choice for the EP, which reached number two in the UK and became Deacon Bluish's biggest hit in the U.k. (the EP was listed equally the single rather than the vocal on United kingdom chart).[xix] [20] The song also reached number ii in Republic of ireland,[iv] and number 72 in kingdom of the netherlands.[21]
