"Nightingale" is a song written by Carole King and David Palmer. "Nightingale" first appeared on her top-selling album Wrap Around Joy, which was released in mid-July 1974, but was released as a single in December. The song has since been put on many of her compilation albums, including her certified platinum album Her Greatest Hits: Songs of Long Ago.
The song, like the album Wrap Around Joy, got off to a slow start, but eventually charted high. "Nightingale" peaked at No. 9 in the Billboard Hot 100, on March 1, 1975, and spent the week before at No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart.[1]
