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 vocal in the middle of the second act, and what nosotros need is something the audience can whistle on their style out of the theater."[7] But effectually this time, Bacharach was hospitalized with pneumonia and wasn't able to sit at a piano to write the music until afterwards he was released. By that time "Hal had already come upward with the lyrics to 'I'll Never Fall in Dearest Once again,' and my hospital stay had inspired him to write, 'What do you get when you buss a girl? / You become enough germs to catch pneumonia / After you do, she'll never phone y'all.'"[viii] When he finally sabbatum with the lyrics in front of him, he recalls, "I wrote the melody for 'I'll Never Fall in Love Once more' faster than I had e'er written any song in my life."[seven] The surge of creativity paid off. "We came in with the song the adjacent morning, and it went into the show a couple of nights later on. 'I'll Never Fall in Beloved Once more' became the outstanding hit from the score and pretty much stopped the show every nighttime."[seven] 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 every bit they ruminate on the various troubles that falling in dearest brings. They recorded it for the original Broadway bandage anthology.[10]
