"Falling in Love with Love" is a show tune from the Rodgers and Hart musical The Boys from Syracuse, where it was introduced by Muriel Angelus. The musical premiered on Broadway in 1938.[1] The song is set to a waltz, but the lyrics "remind his [Hart] listeners of the show's skeptical tone".[2]
In the 1940 film, it was performed by Allan Jones.
It was sung by Bernadette Peters in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella (1997) as the Stepmother.
Chelsea Krombach [1] sings it on her debut album Profile (2004).
