abstract	%22Love in Vain%22 (originally %22Love in Vain Blues%22) is a 1937 blues song written by Robert Johnson. The song is noted for its sad lyrics, tone, and style. In the 1991 documentary film The Search for Robert Johnson, John P. Hammond plays Robert's recording of %22Love in Vain%22 for the elderly Willie Mae Powell, the woman for whom it was supposedly written. Johnson moans %22Oh, Willie Mae%22 twice before the last refrain.Johnson was an admirer of blues singer/pianist Leroy Carr. %22Love in Vain%22 takes its musical structure from Carr's classic %22In the Evenin' When the Sun Goes Down%22. Both songs express a yearning and sorrow for the loss of a lover. The Shreveport Home Wreckers (a duo of Oscar %22Buddy%22 Woods and Ed Schaffer), recorded their track %22Flying Crow Blues%22 in 1932. Johnson used one set of its lyrics almost verbatim for the final verse of %22Love in Vain.%22In 2011 the song was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame of the Blues Foundation.
