"Sweetheart" is a song written by Rainy Davis and Peter Kessler and recorded by Davis. The song reached #24 on the US R&B chart in 1986. It was later covered by Jermaine Dupri and Mariah Carey. Jermaine Dupri and Mariah Carey co-produced their cover of the song for Dupri's debut album Life in 1472, and it was also included on Carey's compilation album #1's. It was scheduled for release as the second single from Life in 1472 in 1998 (see 1998 in music) and was meant to be given full single treatment, with the manufacturing of commercial CD singles and CD maxi singles (among other single formats). Sony retracted the commercial single at the last minute, and it was never officially released. Some retail outlets received the commercial singles, and many of them were sold. Most stores gave them away free, or as free extras with the Life in 1472 or #1's albums. Many were still left, and Amazon.com.
