"January February" is a song recorded by Scottish singer Barbara Dickson. It was released on 7 March 1980 by Epic Records, and peaked at No. 11 on the UK Singles Chart for the week ending 12 April 1980, spending 10 weeks on the chart.[2] It also made the Top 20 in the German and South African charts and 64 in Australia.[3]
The song signalled a new direction in her career, moving into the mainstream pop genre.[citation needed] It was written and produced by Alan Tarney who had recently resurrected Cliff Richard's career with his 1979 no.1 hit "We Don't Talk Anymore". Isaac Guillory played guitar on the song; he also appeared in the music video and helped promote the song on TV.
The single was originally planned to be released on 25 January 1980, but held back when her previous single ("Caravan Song") began to rise in the charts.[4]
Mary Roos recorded a German version of the single entitled "Wenn Ich Dich Nicht Halten Kann" ("If I Cannot Hold You").
