Released: 6 July 1979
Recorded: 29 May 1979
Songwriters: Alan Tarney

“We Don’t Talk Anymore” is a song recorded by Cliff Richard that reached number one in the UK Singles Chart in August 1979, remaining there for four weeks.[3] Produced by the Shadows’ rhythm guitarist, Bruce Welch, and written by Alan Tarney, it was Richard’s tenth UK number one and his first since “Congratulations” in 1968.

The single sold over 4 million copies worldwide, topping the charts in the UK, Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Finland, West Germany, Ireland, Norway and Switzerland. The song spent 4 weeks atop the Irish Singles Chart in September 1979. The song was certified Gold in both the UK and West Germany.

During the single’s run at the Number 1 position on the UK Singles Chart, Norrie Paramor, Richard’s original producer who guided his early career in the late 1950s and 1960s, died on 9 September 1979.

The song was the sixth video aired on MTV on its launch on 1 August 1981.

This was Cliff Richard’s biggest selling hit worldwide. He was a sensation in Great Britain, but never made a major impact in the United States. This was released when his career in America was at its peak.

The hummed backing vocals on the chorus are by Roxy Music frontman Bryan Ferry – a Cliff fan of old.
