"Fool (If You lot Think Information technology's Over)" is the title of a pop song originally released in 1978 by the British singer-songwriter Chris Rea. Rea too wrote the lyrics and composed the music of the song, which appears on his 1978 debut anthology, Whatsoever Happened to Benny Santini? The single's charting success in the USA earned him a Grammy nomination as Best New Artist in 1979.[2]

Background [edit]

"Fool (If You Remember Information technology's Over)" was the lead single from Rea'south debut album Whatever Happened to Benny Santini? which was recorded at producer Gus Dudgeon's Thames Valley recording studio The Mill. The song's inspiration was the experience Rea'southward younger sister Paula had had some years previously of being devastated at losing her first boyfriend, "Fool..."'southward lyrics existence the advice (existent or imagined) with which Rea had responded to his sis's experience.[3] Rea would call back that he had written "Fool..." as a song which Al Light-green might record:[4] [5] (quote:) "I'd always seen it every bit a Memphis [soul] song [but] I never had the gamble to voice my stance about what I thought about the production" of his ain recording of the vocal [iii] of which Rea has elsewhere stated: "[It was in the] wrong key. Information technology ended upward being this huge California thing [see California Sound]. It's the only track I never played guitar on which tells you something about the spirit of it. On top of that, information technology was just a huge striking. So there was nothing I could do. It was similar: 'This is not me!'"[6] Rea did play keyboards on "Fool..." with the track'due south background vocals provided past Rea and the Manufactory'due south assistant engineer Stuart Epps.

The song, written in the key of G major, uses the 2–Five–I turnaround, common in jazz and R&B.[7]

Unsuccessful in its initial Uk unmarried release in March 1978, "Fool..." was afforded a June 1978 release in the US where it entered the Elevation 40 of the Hot 100 singles chart in Billboard mag in July 1978 to reach a #12 peak on the Hot 100 dated 16 September 1978,[eight] [9] so beingness in the 2nd week of a three-calendar week tenure at #1 on the Billboard Easy Listening chart.[ten] On the strength of its US success Rea was invited to perform "Fool..." on the 28 September 1978 TOTP broadcast which evidently facilitated a belated UK chart run for the unmarried with a 28 Oct 1978 summit of #30.[ix] [xi]

The considerable success of "Fool...", particularly in the US, was plainly lost on Rea. He recalls being dejected during the 1978 Yuletide overnight drive home from London while considering abandoning what he saw as his declining singing career to fall dorsum on his family'southward established business of running a restaurant. All the same, when Rea and his wife Joan reached their Middlesbrough domicile in the early morning "nosotros opened the door of the business firm we were only well-nigh to lose the mortgage on, and the snow savage into the hall and it didn't melt - it was that cold - and there was 1 letter on the floor" - the letter in fact accompanied by a substantial royalty cheque generated by "Fool...",[12] enabling Rea to buy a Ferrari 308 GT4.[thirteen] The journey inspired his later on hit "Driving Abode for Christmas".

Rea would remake "Fool (If You Call back It'southward Over)" for his 1988 cocky-produced album New Light Through Onetime Windows, and this version of "Fool..." would take a Dutch single release charting at #90. In 2007 Rea would again remake "Fool..." in a session at The Manufactory - now known equally Sol Studios - where the original had been recorded: Rea produced and played all instruments on the runway which was included on his 2008 European CD release Fool If Y'all Think Information technology'south Over (The Definitive Greatest Hits).

The music journalist Wayne Jacik mentioned the single in his work Billboard Book of One-Hit Wonders.[14]

Elkie Brooks version [edit]

In 1982 Elkie Brooks had a Top xx hitting in the Britain and Southward Africa with her remake of "Fool If You Remember It's Over" - then titled - which like the Chris Rea original was produced by Gus Dudgeon and recorded at the Mill. Brooks' version was one of eight tracks recorded with Dudgeon in 1980 for her 1981 twelve-rail album release Pearls which also included four of Brooks' previous hit singles: Brooks (quote) - "Most of [Pearl's new] cloth had been chosen by [A&M exec] Derek Green or Gus Dudgeon. I had insisted that nosotros did [sic] 'Fool...'. Chris Rea has e'er been one of my favourite musicians and writers and I thought the song was pure class."[25]

Brooks' version of "Fool..." was issued equally a single in December 1981 when Pearls issued the previous month was in the Top Ten of the UK anthology chart - three advance singles had been issued off the album since July 1980 without charting - with "Fool..." rising to a #17 acme on the UK chart dated 27 February 1982 assisted by two TOTP performances by Brooks one of which was re-run. (After taping her 11 February 1982 TOTP functioning of "Fool...", Brooks was approached backstage past a fan asking for her autograph who Brooks presently intuited was in fact Chris Rea incognito.) [25] In Ireland, "Fool..." became Brooks' highest-charting single with a #6 chart meridian.[26]

In a 2022 pre-concert interview Brooks, when asked what "big numbers" she looked forwards to singing, replied: "I all the same really like 'Don't Cry Out Loud', 'Sunshine Subsequently the Rain' and of grade 'Fool If You Think It's Over': that is a terrific song."[27]

"Fool If You Think It's Over" by Elkie Brooks was the starting time runway played on Radio Caroline when the station resumed broadcasting at 10 a.m. 20 Baronial 1983 afterwards a downward menses of 41 months.[3]
