"I Merely Autumn in Love Once again" is a song written past Larry Herbstritt, with co-writers Steve Dorff, Harry Lloyd, and Gloria Sklerov. Herbstritt had composed the melody and chords for the chorus and a chord progression for the verse, which he took to his friend Steve Dorff. Harry Lloyd and Gloria Sklerov completed the lyrics. The vocal was originally recorded by the Carpenters and later covered past Dusty Springfield, and Anne Murray, who was unaware Springfield had recorded it simply half dozen months prior.
The Carpenters' version [edit]
The Carpenters' version was included on the duo's 1977 album Passage. On the Carpenters' official website, Richard Carpenter notes that he felt the vocal was perfect for his sister Karen'southward vox and felt their version had hitting-single potential. Still, A&1000 Records decided non to release it considering it was considered besides long for Superlative 40 radio stations to play at the time (simply over 4 minutes) and could not be abridged.[1]
In 2004, Richard Carpenter added a remixed "I Merely Fall in Honey Again" to the Carpenters' 2-disc compilation, Gold: 35th Anniversary Edition.

Canadian state singer Anne Murray was unaware Dusty Springfield had recorded "I Just Fall in Love Again" merely 6 months prior. Springfield was one of Murray's favourite singers, and has said "If I had known (Springfield) had released it as a single, I never would have recorded it" as Murray's version of the vocal largely overshadowed Springfield's. She released it in early 1979, on her platinum-selling album New Kind of Feeling.
Murray released her version as a unmarried, and it topped Billboard'southward Country[2] and Adult Contemporary charts for iii weeks, while reaching number 11 on the Cash Box Top 100 and number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[3]
It was the get-go of 3 successive number one Country hits and four consecutive number one Adult Contemporary hits during 1979 and 1980. Though Murray loves the vocal, she is quoted in The Billboard Book of Number Ane Developed Contemporary Hits as saying she was surprised at its success on the Country charts, as she didn't feel the song sounded very "country". Nevertheless, Billboard ranked it every bit the number 1 Country hit of 1979. Murray included the vocal as a posthumous duet with Dusty Springfield on her own 2007 anthology Duets: Friends & Legends.
