In Summer (Billy Fury song)

"In Summer" is a song by English singer Billy Fury, released as a single in July 1963. It peaked at number 5 on the Record Retailer Top 50.

Release and reception
"In Summer" was written by pop vocal group the Avons' members Valerie Murtagh, Elaine Murtagh and Ray Adams for Fury. It was released with the B-side "I'll Never Fall in Love Again", written and first released in July 1959 by American singer Johnnie Ray.

Reviewing for Disc, Don Nicholl wrote: "A more lighthearted topside from Billy Fury as he sings the pleasant lilting ballad "In Summer". The sing has a simple appeal about it and Billy catches this without delving into his deeper beat voice". He described "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" as having "a more dramatic Latin pattern and Billy's mood is serious". In New Record Mirror: Fury "outlines the things he wants to do in summer – and it's a very, very commercial outline" and that "in parts, it doesn't sound much like Bill – but that's because it's so far away from the recent releases of his". The B-side was described as "much like the Fury of late. Warm, emotional, throbbing, dynamic".
