"Morning Dew" Song by Bonnie Dobson from the album Bonnie Dobson at Folk City Released 1962 Label Prestige International INT 13057 Writer Bonnie Dobson Bonnie Dobson at Folk City track listing "Morning Dew"
(1)"Once My True Love"
(2)"Morning Dew", also known as "(Walk Me Out in the) Morning Dew", is a post-apocalyptic folk-rock song written by Canadian singer Bonnie Dobson in 1962.
According to Dobson in a 1993 interview, "Morning Dew" was inspired by the film On the Beach.[1]
Fred Neil heard Dobson's song and re-arranged it to suit his own style. Tim Rose heard Neil's version and then recorded his own in 1966, adding himself as co-writer. Through a loophole in US copyright law, Rose was able to claim royalties. Dobson has consistently questioned Rose's right to a co-writing credit.[2]
