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 centre of the second act, and what we need is something the audience can whistle on their way out of the theater."[7] 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. Past that fourth dimension "Hal had already come up up with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Autumn in Love Once again,' and my infirmary stay had inspired him to write, 'What do you get when you buss a girl? / Yous get plenty germs to take hold of pneumonia / After you do, 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 Autumn in Love Again' faster than I had always written any vocal in my life."[7] The surge of creativity paid off. "We came in with the song the next morning, and it went into the testify a couple of nights subsequently. 'I'll Never Autumn in Beloved Again' became the outstanding hitting from the score and pretty much stopped the prove every night."[7] Promises, Promises had its Broadway premiere on December ane of that year,[9] 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 anthology.[10]
