"I'll Never Fall in Dearest Again" is a pop 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 most popular versions were by Dionne Warwick (released December 1969), who took it to number 6 on Billboard magazine'due south Hot 100[1] and spent three weeks topping the magazine's list of the nigh popular Easy Listening songs,[2] and Bobbie Gentry (released July 1969), who topped the Great britain chart with her recording[3] and also peaked at number ane in Australia and Ireland,[4] number 3 in Due south Africa[5] and number five 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 act, and what we need is something the audience tin can whistle on their way 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 upwards with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Fall in Love Once more,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What do y'all get when yous buss a daughter? / You become enough germs to catch pneumonia / Afterwards you practice, she'll never phone y'all.'"[8] When he finally sat with the lyrics in front 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 inventiveness paid off. "We came in with the song the next morning, and information technology went into the show a couple of nights later on. 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' became the outstanding striking from the score and pretty much stopped the evidence every dark."[7] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on December 1 of that year,[9] and the vocal was originally performed every bit a duet between the characters played by Jill O'Hara and Jerry Orbach as they ruminate on the various troubles that falling in love brings. They recorded information technology for the original Broadway cast album.[10]

Chart hits [edit]

The first recording of "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" to reach whatever of the charts in Billboard was by Johnny Mathis, whose embrace debuted on the magazine'due south Piece of cake Listening chart in the issue dated May 17, 1969, and reached number 35 over the course of three weeks there.[11] Bacharach'south own version, which was sung by a female person chorus, overtook the Mathis release after a May 31 debut on that same chart and got every bit high every bit number 18 during its nine-week stay.[12] It also peaked at number 93 on the Hot 100 during the two weeks it spent there in July.[13] Bobbie Gentry entered the U.k. singles nautical chart with the song the following calendar month, on August 30, and enjoyed one of her xix weeks there at number one.[3] She likewise peaked at number one in Ireland,[4] number three in South Africa,[xiv] and number 5 in Norway.[6]

The almost successful version of the vocal to be released as a unmarried in the US was past Bacharach-David protégée Dionne Warwick, whose recording fabricated its first advent on the Hot 100 in the issue dated December 27, 1969, to start an xi-week run that took it to number six.[ane] The January 3, 1970, issue marked its get-go of 11 weeks on the magazine'south Easy Listening chart, where it enjoyed three weeks at number one,[two] and a vii-week stay on their listing of the l Best Selling Soul Singles in the US began in the next issue and included a peak position at number 17.[15] Her version too spent iv weeks at number one on the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart[xvi] and reached number iii 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.
