It seems that when this song is mentioned, people will usually think of Anne Murray, who released it in the year 1979, but i've known this song through Carpenters, who actually was the first known singer to have recorded it and included on the 1977 album 'Passage'. The reason why Karen's version was never really promoted, although Richard strongly felt the song was perfect for his sister's voice and believed that it had hit-single potential, was because A&M Records decided not to release it as a single because it was considered too long for top 40 radio stations to play at the time (Just over 4 minutes) and Richard was reluctant to alter the original musical arrangement. For me, i like Karen's version more. Richard's arrangement cleverly alters the key at the last chorus to enliven the song, giving it just the right aura when one is falling in love again.

P.S. This is my first time posting 2 songs in a day. i just feel after posting 'Like A Sad Song' by John Denver, i do believe we all need a bit of spiritual elevation, hence a hopeful song 'i Just Fall In Love Again'

Jerry: @divolino This is as good as or better than the original. It cannot get better than this!
