"Kiss and Say Goodbye" is a song recorded by the American R&B vocal group The Manhattans on April 1976.
The song was written by Manhattans member Winfred "Blue" Lovett. The original demo of the song was recorded with The Manhattans backing band "Little Harlem." After hearing a tape of the recording, producer/arranger Bobby Martin decided to re-record the song with MFSB at Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia.
Released as a single, in both a version that included a mid-song rap spoken part (aimed toward the R&B market)
and one that omitted it (aimed toward the pop market), over a year later, the song became a world-wide hit for the group, spending two weeks at number one on the U.S. Pop and U.S. R&B charts. and reaching number four on the UK Singles Chart in the summer of 1976. In the U.S., the song was the 400th #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart.
