Every time I hear burt, I am imediatly brought back to the late '60s when my dad could not wait play a new tune penned buy him, puts a smile on my face every time, I miss Him
@Luis Colorado Bacharach's biggest hits are well-enough remembered, but the fact is, Bacharach's songs are, like, three times more sophisticated-- melodically, harmonically and rhythmically--- than most pop songs which hit the Top 40 (in the 1960's or now). It's not being snobbish to say that Burt's ideas are often "over the public's head". Get to know his lesser-known material and you will see...
@Benjamin Chad Gessel It's worth mentioning that "I Say A Little Prayer" came out during the Vietnam War... So the image of a woman "saying a little prayer" for an absent man had especial resonance at that time. Ditto Bacharach's "In The Land Of Make Believe".
Ouch! By accident I pushed the thumb-down instead of the thumb-up in my phone... anyone knows how to undo that? I love this song, especially this combination. I wonder why Bacharach is not better remembered. I think that he is one of the finest composers of the 20th century. Perhaps this songs were played too much at the elevators?
The team of Bacharach and Warwick shows how by combining of not only the right sounds but the right voice, to those sounds one can make musical magic ever time.
Does anyone ever get the impression that this song is religious without being "religious"? Course, that is definitely a good thing. Bacharach always throws in a little "heaven" in his songs, and we love it, you know we do. :)
