  2. Really? Which version is your favorite? I also love Dusty Springfield's version.

  3. I was having me a Burt Bacharach flashback last week. Listened to all kinds of his stuff. He's partnered with some interesting musical bedfellows over the years including Elvis Costello. This tune (a Bacharach/Hal David thing) has always been a fav and serendipitously I like the version by Diana Krall: killer voice and that famous London Symphony Orch patent sound..

  5. My favorite version is when my activity director/blog administrator sings it to me, naturally he's not as good as Burt or Dusty but he tries.

    When I was little I would listen to Burt in my dads bar that he had down in the basement which was ironic since he didn't drink nor was he social. I broke the tape deck and mom took the fall for me. I always appreciated that.

    Last week as I was thinking about my pain (I know) I realized that I'm not allowed to covet it anymore now that I gave it to Christ. Just think.. It was my pain, and he corrected me for reliving it - he said it was his. Is anything mine anymore? No.
