"Only Fools (Never Fall in Love)" is a 1991 single by Sonia. It was produced by Nigel Wright for Sonia's second studio album Sonia (1991). The song was written by Tony Hiller, who had scored great success in the 1970s as manager for Brotherhood of Man, and one-time member Barry Upton. This song was released in June 1991 as the album's first single. This song reached #10 in the charts in the UK.[1]
Co-writer Barry Upton commented that he'd initially written the song with Diana Ross in mind, but Sonia's A&R man, Simon Cowell heard the song and took it for her. After the single's success, Upton was keen to work with her directly, but Cowell prevented this.[2]
