I Fell in Love is the sixth studio album by American country music singer Carlene Carter, released in 1990. This was the highest-ranking Billboard album of her career, at #19 on the US Country charts. Four singles from the album also charted, with the title song "I Fell in Love," and "Come on Back" both reaching #3 as singles. Two lower-charting hits were the #25 "The Sweetest Thing" and the #33 "One Love."
The track "Me and the Wildwood Rose" is a tribute to Carter's half-sister, Rosie Nix Adams. "Easy From Now On", a song that Carter cowrote with Susanna Clark in the 1970s, was originally a number 12 hit for Emmylou Harris on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart. Also, "You Are the One," written by Leon Payne, was a top 5 country hit for Carter's father, Carl Smith, in 1956. The album was produced by Howie Epstein from the Heartbreakers and also featured Benmont Tench, who cowrote the title track.
