"The Next Time"
Song
B-side"Bachelor Boy"[1]

"The Next Time" backed with "Bachelor Boy" was the first of three number one hit singles from the Cliff Richard musical, Summer Holiday.[1] Both sides were marketed as songs with chart potential, and the release is viewed retrospectively as a double A-side single. However, technically double A sides were not regarded as such until 1965, so "The Next Time" was pressed as the A-side,[2] with "Bachelor Boy" the B-side (written by Bruce Welch and Cliff Richard). The song was succeeded at number one by The Shadows' "Dance On!".[1]

The recording of the song took place at Abbey Road Studios in London on 10 May 1962. It was produced by Norrie Paramor and engineered by Malcolm Addey.[3] The single spent three weeks at No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart in January 1963.[4]

The song was included on the January 1963 album Summer Holiday. The film was the most successful box-office attraction of the year.
