"Never Gonna Fall" is a song recorded by British singer Lisa Stansfield for her 1997 eponymous album. It was written by Stansfield and Ian Devaney, and produced by Devaney and Peter Mokran. The song received favorable reviews from music critics. The promotional single was released in the United States on 27 October 1997 and included remixes created by two prominent US producers: Junior Vasquez and Victor Calderone.

In December 1997, it topped the Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs for two weeks and became Stansfield's sixth song to reach number one on this chart and third from Lisa Stansfield to do so. Stansfield performed "Never Gonna Fall" live on The Rosie O'Donnell Show. In January 1998, the song was released as a promotional single in Spain. In June 1998, two remixes of "Never Gonna Fall" were included on The Remix Album. The song was also featured on the US edition of Biography: The Greatest Hits (2003) and Junior Vasquez Mix was added to the European bonus CD of this album.

In 2014, "Never Gonna Fall" (Junior's Return To 27th & 10th Anthem) was included on the deluxe 2CD + DVD re-release of Lisa Stansfield. Additional previously unreleased Wyclef Remix was featured on People Hold On ... The Remix Anthology (2014). Both remixes were also featured on The Collection 1989–2003 in 2014.[1][2]
