"I'll Never Autumn in Dear 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 most popular versions were by Dionne Warwick (released December 1969), who took it to number 6 on Billboard magazine's Hot 100[i] and spent three weeks topping the magazine'due south list of the near popular Easy Listening songs,[2] and Bobbie Gentry (released July 1969), who topped the Uk chart with her recording[3] and also peaked at number ane in Commonwealth of australia and Ireland,[4] number 3 in South Africa[5] and number 5 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 eye of the second act, and what we need is something the audience tin can whistle on their way out of the theater."[7] Merely around this time, Bacharach was hospitalized with pneumonia and wasn't able to sit at a pianoforte to write the music until later on he was released. Past that time "Hal had already come up with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Autumn in Honey Over again,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What practice you get when you kiss a girl? / You get plenty germs to catch pneumonia / Later you practice, she'll never telephone you lot.'"[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 any song in my life."[vii] The surge of inventiveness paid off. "We came in with the vocal the next morning, and it went into the evidence a couple of nights later on. 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' became the outstanding hit from the score and pretty much stopped the show every night."[7] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on December 1 of that year,[9] and the vocal was originally performed as a duet between the characters played by Jill O'Hara and Jerry Orbach as they ruminate on the various troubles that falling in beloved brings. They recorded it for the original Broadway cast album.[ten]

Chart hits [edit]

The first recording of "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" to reach any of the charts in Billboard was by Johnny Mathis, whose cover debuted on the magazine's Easy Listening nautical 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 equally number 18 during its 9-week stay.[12] It besides peaked at number 93 on the Hot 100 during the two weeks it spent at that place in July.[xiii] Bobbie Gentry entered the UK singles chart with the song the following month, on August 30, and enjoyed one of her 19 weeks there at number one.[3] She besides peaked at number ane in Ireland,[4] number iii in South Africa,[14] and number v in Norway.[6]

The most successful version of the vocal to be released equally a single in the US was past Bacharach-David protégée Dionne Warwick, whose recording fabricated its starting time appearance on the Hot 100 in the event dated December 27, 1969, to start an 11-week run that took it to number six.[ane] The January iii, 1970, issue marked its outset of 11 weeks on the mag's Easy Listening chart, where it enjoyed three weeks at number one,[two] and a seven-week stay on their list of the 50 Best Selling Soul Singles in the US began in the next issue and included a peak position at number 17.[15] Her version as well spent four weeks at number one on the Canadian Adult Contemporary nautical chart[16] and reached number three on the Canadian pop chart.[17] The Dionne Warwick version is noted for Burt Bacharach playing a counterpoint melody on the pianoforte, 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.[eighteen] In 1990 the Scottish pop rock band Deacon Blue opted for a slower organisation on the duet between their vocalists Ricky Ross and Lorraine McIntosh as part of the four-song EP Iv Bacharach & David Songs. The song was the principal radio pick for the EP, which reached number two in the UK and became Deacon Bluish'due south biggest hit in the United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland (the EP was listed as the single rather than the song on UK chart).[nineteen] [20] The song besides reached number two in Ireland,[four] and number 72 in the Netherlands.[21]

Grammy nomination (1970) and win (1971) [edit]

At the 12th Annual Grammy Awards on March xi, 1970, Bacharach and David were the songwriting nominees of "I'll Never Fall in Dear Again" in the Vocal of the Year category but lost to Joe South for "Games People Play".[22] Because the eligibility menstruum ended on November 1, 1969,[22] all the same, Warwick was not nominated until the following yr, when she won in the category of Best Contemporary Vocal Functioning, Female.[23]
