Too Much, Too Little, Too Late

"Too Much, Too Little, Too Late" is a song performed by singers Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams, written by Nat Kipner and John Vallins. The single was a comeback of sorts for Mathis, because his last U.S. top 10 hit had been 1963's "What Will Mary Say" and his last U.S. #1 hit had been 1957's "Chances Are." Released as a single in 1978, it reached #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 pop chart, Adult Contemporary chart, and R&B chart. It also reached #1 on the Record World Singles Chart, but peaked at #2 on the Cashbox Top 100. Outside the United States, the song peaked at #9 on the Canadian Singles Chart and #3 on the UK Singles Chart.
