“I Keep Forgettin’ (Every Time You’re Near)” foi lançada em 1982 como parte do álbum de estreia de Michael McDonald, *If That’s What It Takes*.
A canção foi co‑escrita por Michael McDonald e Ed Sanford, mas recebeu créditos adicionais de Jerry Leiber e Mike Stoller devido à semelhança melódica com a música de 1962 “I Keep Forgettin’” de Chuck Jackson.
Nos Estados Unidos, o single alcançou a posição nº 4 na Billboard Pop Singles, nº 7 nas paradas R&B e nº 8 na categoria Adult Contemporary.
O reconhecimento da similaridade musical resultou na inclusão de Leiber e Stoller como compositores, garantindo-lhes direitos autorais e royalties da gravação de McDonald.
