"The Next Time I Fall"
Song

"The Next Time I Fall" is a 1986 Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 song written by Bobby Caldwell and Paul Gordon,[2] recorded as a duet by Peter Cetera and Amy Grant for Cetera's 1986 album Solitude/Solitaire, and as a solo by Caldwell himself for his 1988 album Heart of Mine. The single reached No. 1 on both the Adult Contemporary chart and the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.[3] It went to No. 1 in December 1986, remaining in that position for one week. It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.

As a duet, the song was Grant's first of two No. 1 pop singles and her first foray into the secular music field (she had scored several No. 1 singles in Contemporary Christian Music previously). Grant released the song on her Greatest Hits 1986–2004 album and the music video on the corresponding Greatest Hits 1986-2004 DVD.

The music video was released in 1986 and shows Cetera and Grant singing in a room with people dancing.[citation needed] The video was directed by Dominic Sena.[citation needed]
