Chris Rea - Fool If You Think It’s Over

“Fool (If You Think It’s Over)“ was the lead single from Rea’s debut album Whatever Happened to Benny Santini? which was recorded at producer Gus Dudgeon’s Thames Valley recording studio The Mill. The song, written in the key of G major, uses the ii–V–I turnaround, common in jazz and R&B. Unsuccessful in its initial UK single release in March 1978, “Fool...“ was afforded a June 1978 release in the US where it entered the Top 40 of the Hot 100 singles chart in Billboard magazine in July 1978 to reach a #12 peak on the Hot 100 dated 16 September 1978, then being in the second week of a three-week tenure at #1 on the Billboard Easy Listening chart. 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 single with a 28 October 1978 peak of #30. -Wikipedia Original Digital Song Link:
