Wikipedia article




"'Your Baby Doesn't Love You Anymore'" is a song originally recorded and made a minor hit by 'Ruby & the Romantics' in 1965. It appeared on their 'Greatest Hits' album, and was released as a single on Kapp Records K-665 in April of that year. On The Romantics' original version, the song's composer is listed as Lawrence (Larry) Weiss. Although it was originally a B-side to the standard "We'll Meet Again", "Your Baby" received considerably more R&B radio airplay, but did not reach the 'Billboard' Hot 100, only managing #8 on the Bubbling Under chart.

Carpenters' version



Eighteen years later, in 1983, The Carpenters released a cover version of the song as the second single from their 1983 'Voice of the Heart' album. The single was the second posthumous release after Karen's death. No video was shot for the song nor has the song ever been performed live by Richard.
