Dionne is a studio album by American singer Dionne Warwick. It was released by Arista Records in May 1979 in the United States. Recorded during the winter of 1978–79, the album marked Warwick's debut with the label. Production on Dionne was helmed by Barry Manilow, who was paired with Warwick by Arista founder Clive Davis. Her highest-charting album since Soulful (1969), Dionne peaked at number 12 on the US Billboard 200 album chart and went platinum in the US.

Lead single "I'll Never Love This Way Again" became a major hit, reaching number five on the US Billboard Hot 100.[5] The song was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and both it and follow-up hit "Deja Vu" became Grammy Award winners at the 1980 ceremony. "After You," Dionne's's third top ten single and "Feeling Old Feelings" were also released as singles, with the latter receiving a Japanese release only. Her performance of the song earned Warwick the grand prize at the Tokyo Music Festival for Song of the Year.[6]
