"I'll Never Fall in Love Again" is a popular song by the composer Burt Bacharach and the lyricist Hal David. Originally written for the 1968 musical ''Promises, Promises'', the song's narrator ruminates on the various troubles that falling in love brings. The song was nominated for Song of the Year in the 1969 Grammy awards. In January 1970, the song was a number six hit on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 singles chart and a number-one hit on the Easy Listening chart for Dionne Warwick. Warwick's version, arranged and produced by Bacharach and recorded in 1969 with the session musician Gary Chester on drums, also reached number three on the Canadian Chart and crossed over into the Top 20 R&B Chart and became an international million seller. Warwick's album of the same name containing the single won a 1971 Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Performance-Female. The song has charted with various other artists, including Bacharach; his version was released as a single in 1969 and achieved a low chart position. Bobbie Gentry's reached number one on the UK Singles Chart for a single week in October 1969. Ella Fitzgerald's became a minor hit in September 1969 and charted briefly. It was also the best-charting single in a cover version for the Scottish band Deacon Blue, peaking at number two in the UK Singles Chart in 1990. ==Cover versions== Apart from the above versions, this song has been covered many times: *Herb Alpert *Liz Anderson (reached #56 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Country Singles chart in 1972) *Chet Atkins *Shirley Bassey (on her 1969 album ''Does Anybody Miss Me'') *Deacon Blue (#2 UK, #2 IRL) on their album Four Bacharach & David Songs in 1990 *The Carpenters *Mary Chapin Carpenter *Elvis Costello & Burt Bacharach (featured in the 1999 movie ''Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me'') *The Dells *Ella Fitzgerald *Bobbie Gentry – ''Touch 'Em with Love'' (1969), ''Fancy'' (1970) *Emmylou Harris (on her 1969 album ''Gliding Bird'') *Isaac Hayes (on his 1971 album ''Black Moses'') *Sean Hayes and Kristin Chenoweth *Bradley Joseph *Ronan Keating on the album ''When Ronan Met Burt'' (2011) *Mark Lindsay (on his 1970 album ''Arizona'') *Johnny Mathis *Liza Minnelli *Anne Murray *Trijntje Oosterhuis *The Real Group *Sitti *Catherine Spaak & Johnny Dorelli *Tok Tok Tok *Ornella Vanoni *Dionne Warwick (#6 US,#3 Canada, #17 US R&B, #1 US Adult Contemporary) *The Whitlams *Wilson Simonal (Brazilian singer on the album "Mexico 70") *Elvis Presley *Chord Overstreet and Lea Michele in the season six episode of ''Glee'', "What the World Needs Now" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I'll Never Fall in Love Again」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
