What is your favorite Bert Bacharach/Hal David Song?

[greekspeak]

I simply adore these song writers, and I thought it would be fun to see what other DUers' faves are. Mine would be a toss up between "Do You Know the Way to San Jose?" and "I Say a Little Prayer." Anyone Else?

1. 'What the world needs now...

is love, sweet love...'

2. That's the only thing

That there's just too little of ....

5. We don't need another mountain...

..we've got mountains and hilltops enough to climb

3. Theme to Valley of the Dolls

I don't think that is the exact name of the song, but it is a favorite. Oh, and "What's It All About Alfie?"

[MacCovern]

7. Valley of the Dolls = Andre Previn

Bacharach/David wrote most of Dionne Wariwick's hits in the
1960's, but actually her biggest hit of that decade was written
by Andre Previn and Previn's wife.

8. I have only seen the last of "Valley of the Dolls"

but i want to see the rest of it. And Dionne does a FABULOUS job with that song!

6. The Look of Love

[PROGRESSIVE1]

9. There are many that I like!

What The World Needs Now (is love, sweet love)
Alfie
Windows of the World
I Say A Little Prayer for You
Send a Message to Michael
A House Is Not A Home

[MacCovern]

10. This Guy's in Love and The Look of Love

It's a toss up for me also. Bacharach/David wrote This Guy's
in Love for Herb Alpert to sing to his wife on a TV special
way back in 1968.

The Dusty Springfield version of The Look of Love in the movie
"Casino Royale" is another all-time favorite.

I love dozens of other Bacharach/David songs and can only
dream of the day when music like that is popular again.

11. Look of love is a great song!

I like the Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 version of it. And I agree...I wish that kind of music would come back! A little Gordon Lightfoot, a little Bacharach and David, a little Carpenters...I love this stuff. Makes me feel so much better after hearing it.

12. Raindrops

keep falling on my head.

The story of my life.
