  • "Baby, Now That I've Found You" is a song written by Tony Macaulay and John MacLeod. Part of the song was written in the same bar of a Soho tavern where Karl Marx was supposed to have written Das Kapital. In 1967, The Foundations released it as their debut single. When "Baby Now That I've Found You" was first released it went nowhere. Luckily BBC's newly founded Radio 1 were looking to avoid any records being played by the pirate radio stations and they looked back at some recent releases that the pirate stations had missed. Baby, Now That I've Found You was one of them. The single then took off and by November Baby Now That I've Found You was number one in the British charts. It met with great success, becoming a number 11 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping the UK Singles Chart for two weeks in November 1967. The song also reached #1 on the Canadian RPM magazine charts February 10, 1968. The lyrics are a plea that an unnamed subject not break up with the singer. The song was also recorded by Dan Schafer in 1978 on Tortoise International Records, an RCA Records subsidiary. This version did not chart but received lots of airplay in certain areas & dance clubs as it had a slight disco flair to it. Another version of the song were recorded by The Foundations in 1968 that featured Clem Curtis's replacement Colin Young instead. This was on a Marble Arch album that feaured newer stereo versions of their previous hits. Original lead singer of the Foundations, Clem Curtis recorded his own version of it and it was released on the Opium label OPIN 001 as a 7" single and a 12" version OPINT001 in 1987. In or around the late 1980s Clem Curtis and Alan Warner teamed up to recut Baby, Now That I've Found You as well as other hits of The Foundations. The song was later a 1995 country hit for Alison Krauss from the album Now That I've Found You: A Collection. Her version appeared in the Australian comedy film, The Castle. In the Philippines the song was revived by MYMP on the album MYMP Live at the Music Museum. It also appeared on the soundtrack to the film Shallow Hal starring Gwenyth Paltrow and Jack Black and the Australian film, The Castle.
