"I Don't Want to Hear It Anymore" is a 1964 song written by Randy Newman. It was first recorded by Jerry Butler in 1964 and released as a single by him (under the title "I Don't Want to Hear Anymore").[2]
Writer Kevin Courrier, in his 2005 book Randy Newman's American Dreams, describes the song as about the "ambiguities of romance" with the singer the protagonist in an "ill-fated love affair".[3]
