    Let’s talk about a lovely song called "We'll Never Have to Say Goodbye Again," written by Jeffrey Comanor. This song came out in September 1976 as part of an album called "A Rumor in His Own Time." It’s all about a sweet couple who have an amazing night together, and the singer wishes it would just go on forever—no goodbyes, just happiness.

    While Jeffrey’s original version didn’t get much attention, a big change happened when Clive Davis, the president of Arista Records, stumbled upon it just a few months later. He saw potential in it, and it was soon covered by a duo called Deardorff & Joseph in their first album with Arista.

    After Deardorff & Joseph went their separate ways, interestingly, the people managing them found new opportunities—you see, Marcia Day started managing Deardorff, while Susan Joseph took charge of Joseph.

    Fast forward to February 1978, and we have more covers of this enchanting tune! Maureen McGovern and the duo England Dan & John Ford Coley each released their versions. McGovern's cover didn’t quite catch on, but England Dan & John Ford Coley hit the jackpot! Their rendition spent six weeks at the top of the Billboard US Easy Listening chart and made waves in Canada, too.
