"Another Suitcase in Another Hall" is a song from the musical Evita with lyrics by Tim Rice and music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The song was first a hit for in the UK for Barbara Dickson in 1977. It was recorded by American singer Madonna for the 1996 soundtrack Evita. The song was released as the soundtrack's third and final commercial single in March 1997.
The lyrics describe the singer's familiarity with the unhappiness of having to move on after a failed romance. In the musical, the song is sung by Juan Perón's mistress after she is pushed out of Perón's life by his future wife, Eva. In the film adaptation of Evita, the song is adapted for Eva to sing after the end of her relationship with Agustín Magaldi, adding a more vulnerable dimension to the character and another potential Madonna hit to aid the film's promotion
[edit] The single
The single, which was only released in the United Kingdom, Australia and a few European countries, was not a big hit on the charts, entering at UK number seven but free-falling thereafter. The single was withdrawn from sale in Australia almost as soon as it was released, and as such became the only Madonna single to not chart on the ARIA Australian Top 100.
