"I'll Never Fall in Honey Again" is a popular 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 almost popular versions were past Dionne Warwick (released December 1969), who took it to number half-dozen on Billboard magazine'due south Hot 100[1] and spent three weeks topping the magazine's list of the nearly popular Easy Listening songs,[ii] and Bobbie Gentry (released July 1969), who topped the UK chart with her recording[3] and as well peaked at number 1 in Australia and Ireland,[four] number iii in South Africa[5] and number five in Kingdom of norway.[half dozen]

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, "Nosotros're missing a vocal in the middle of the second act, and what we need is something the audience tin whistle on their manner out of the theater."[seven] Simply around this fourth dimension, Bacharach was hospitalized with pneumonia and wasn't able to sit at a pianoforte to write the music until after he was released. By that fourth dimension "Hal had already come up with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What do you become when you kiss a daughter? / Y'all get plenty germs to catch pneumonia / After you do, she'll never phone you.'"[8] When he finally sat with the lyrics in front end of him, he recalls, "I wrote the melody for 'I'll Never Fall in Beloved Again' faster than I had e'er written whatsoever song in my life."[seven] The surge of inventiveness paid off. "We came in with the song the side by side morn, and it went into the bear witness a couple of nights afterwards. 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' became the outstanding striking from the score and pretty much stopped the show every night."[7] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on December 1 of that yr,[nine] and the song was originally performed as a duet between the characters played past Jill O'Hara and Jerry Orbach equally they ruminate on the various 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 Dear Once more" to reach whatsoever of the charts in Billboard was by Johnny Mathis, whose embrace debuted on the mag's Easy Listening chart in the result dated May 17, 1969, and reached number 35 over the form of 3 weeks at that place.[11] Bacharach's ain version, which was sung by a female chorus, overtook the Mathis release after a May 31 debut on that aforementioned chart and got every bit high as number 18 during its nine-calendar 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 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 also peaked at number 1 in Ireland,[iv] number iii in South Africa,[fourteen] and number five in Kingdom of norway.[6]

The most successful version of the song to be released every bit a single in the US was by Bacharach-David protégée Dionne Warwick, whose recording made its first appearance on the Hot 100 in the issue dated December 27, 1969, to start an 11-calendar week run that took it to number six.[i] The Jan 3, 1970, issue marked its first of 11 weeks on the magazine'southward Easy Listening nautical chart, where it enjoyed 3 weeks at number one,[2] and a seven-week stay on their list of the 50 Best Selling Soul Singles in the US began in the next upshot and included a pinnacle position at number 17.[15] Her version also spent four weeks at number ane on the Canadian Adult Contemporary nautical chart[sixteen] and reached number three on the Canadian pop chart.[17] The Dionne Warwick version is noted for Burt Bacharach playing a counterpoint tune on the pianoforte, which is heard at the fading Coda section of the song.

The vocal was the main radio choice for the EP, which reached number two in the UK and became Deacon Blue'southward biggest striking in the United kingdom (the EP was listed as the single rather than the song on Uk nautical chart).[nineteen] [xx] The vocal besides reached number 2 in Republic of ireland,[4] and number 72 in the Netherlands.[21]
