"Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" is the best-known song from the 1978 musical Evita with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice.

Sung by the title character Eva Peron, it was originally to be titled "It's Only Your Lover Returning", before Rice settled on the eventual title.

First recorded by Julie Covington in the 1976 studio version, it was then performed on stage by Elaine Paige when the show opened on June 21 1978.

It has subsequently been recorded by many artists including The Carpenters, Olivia Newton-John, The Shadows (1978), Sinéad O'Connor (1992), Sarah Brightman, Madonna (1996) and Mike Flowers Pops (1996), as well as in other languages.
