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 center of the 2nd human activity, and what we need is something the audience can whistle on their fashion out of the theater."[7] But 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 time "Hal had already come up up with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What practise y'all become when you kiss a girl? / You get enough germs to grab pneumonia / After yous do, she'll never phone you.'"[viii] When he finally sabbatum with the lyrics in front of him, he recalls, "I wrote the melody for 'I'll Never Fall in Dearest Once more' faster than I had ever written any song in my life."[7] The surge of creativity paid off. "We came in with the song the adjacent morning, and it went into the prove a couple of nights subsequently. 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' became the outstanding hit from the score and pretty much stopped the show every night."[vii] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on December 1 of that year,[ix] and the song was originally performed every bit a duet between the characters played past Jill O'Hara and Jerry Orbach equally they ruminate on the various troubles that falling in dearest brings. They recorded information technology for the original Broadway cast album.[x]
