"The Last Time I Saw Her" is a song written and recorded by Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot and released in 1968. It was also recorded by American country music artist Glen Campbell, whose version was released in June 1971 as the second single from his album of the same name, The Last Time I Saw Her. Campbell’s version peaked at number 21 on both the U.S. BillboardHot Country Singles chart and the RPM Country Tracks chart in Canada.[2] Lightfoot had recorded the song for his 1968 album Did She Mention My Name?. Other artists who have recorded the song include Harry Belafonte (for his 1969 album Homeward Bound), John Arpin (for his 1974 album Love and Maple Syrup), Johnny Mathis (as the B-side of his recording of another of Lightfoot's songs, "Wherefore and Why"), Andy Williams (as the B-side of North American releases of his single "Music from Across the Way"), and Keola & Kapono Beamer (for their 1982 album Tahiti Holiday).
