UB40 - (I Can't Help) Falling In Love With You (1993)



In 1993, British reggae band UB40 recorded the song as the first single from their 1993 album Promises and Lies. The song was released in May 1993, in the majority of countries worldwide. It eventually climbed to No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 after debuting at No. 100, and remained there for seven weeks. It was also No. 1 in the United Kingdom, UK Official Singles Chart Top 75 from 06 June 1993 - 19 June 1993, Austria, Netherlands, Sweden, Australia, and New Zealand. The song appears on the soundtrack of the movie Sliver, the trailer for Fools Rush In, and an episode of Hindsight. In the US, and on the Sliver soundtrack, the song title was listed as "Can't Help Falling in Love," rather than what appeared on the record sleeve. The single version of the song also has a slightly different backing rhythm and melody. The song and band also appear in the 1997 film Speed 2: Cruise Control.
