Although originally released in 1979, 'What a fool believes' only made the Dutch chart upon its reissue in 1986. It reached number 12, which is a better placing than the two in the UK in 1979 and 1986, when it reached number 31 and 57 respectively. In the USA, 'What a fool believes' was one of the few non-disco hits to top the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1979.The song was written by Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald and recorded on the 1978 Doobie Brothers album 'Minute by minute', with McDonald performing lead vocals.
