Lyrics [edit]

"Alone Again (Naturally)" is an introspective ballad. In the start poetry, the singer contemplates suicide after having been left "in the lurch at a church"; in the 2nd, he wonders if there is a God; finally, he laments the death of his parents. O'Sullivan has said the vocal is non autobiographical: his mother was live during its limerick; O'Sullivan was xi when his begetter, who was savage to his female parent, died, and he's said that he didn't know his father well.[7] O'Sullivan subsequently commented "Neil Diamond covered "Solitary Over again (Naturally)" and said he couldn't believe a 21-year-quondam wrote information technology, but for me information technology was just ane song I had written".[8] Neil Sedaka was similarly effusive in his praise for the song, stating as he covered the vocal in 2020 that he wished that he himself had written the song because its complexity was more typical of a man much older than 21.[9] The song is included on O'Sullivan'southward The Berry Vest of Gilbert O'Sullivan album (2004) on the EMI record characterization. Big Jim Sullivan plays the guitar suspension in the original recorded version of the song.

Chart performance [edit]

Copyright lawsuit [edit]

Yard Upright Music, Ltd five. Warner Bros. Records Inc. , 780 F. Supp. 182 (S.D.N.Y. 1991), was a copyright case heard by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case pitted singer/songwriter Gilbert O'Sullivan against rapper Biz Markie after Biz Markie sampled O'Sullivan's song "Alone Once more (Naturally)". The court ruled that sampling without permission can qualify equally copyright infringement. The judgment changed the hip hop music manufacture, requiring that whatever future music sampling exist preapproved by the original copyright owners to avoid a lawsuit.[26]

Maison Ikkoku [edit]

This vocal, forth with another i of O'Sullivan's songs, "Get Down", were featured equally the opening and ending for episode 24 of the Japanese anime hit Maison Ikkoku. At the time, O'Sullivan was signed to production company Kitty Motion-picture show's associated record label, Kitty Records, which wanted to utilise the anime's popularity as a way to promote the vocaliser's career in Japan. According to series managing director Kazuo Yamazaki, the reason the songs were dropped after only one episode was that they were unpopular with viewers; due to copyright bug, they were non included on the English-language American release of the anime, replaced by the previously used Japanese theme songs. The anime was based upon the popular manga of the same proper noun by Rumiko Takahashi.

The vocal was also used as the catastrophe theme for the 1986 live-action Maison Ikkoku film, Apartment Fantasy.

Notable encompass versions [edit]

Many artists have covered the song. Amidst the more notable are a version by Nina Simone, included every bit a bonus track on the 1988 digital reissue of her 1982 anthology Fodder on My Wings; and a version by Lazlo Blight's frontman Republic of chad Fischer, from the 2009 animated film Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Both versions feature essentially rewritten lyrics; Simone'due south version savagely exhumes her troubled human relationship with her late male parent, whereas Fischer's version explores the unrequited desire of an acorn for the prehistoric squirrel who once chased it. Also in 2015, Diana Krall released a duet version with Michael Bublé on her album titled "Wallflower".[27]
