Adele and Burt Bacharach-Baby It's You

Electric Proms 2008

[@jameslester3861]

No one, NO ONE can ever top Gayle McCormick’s version of this song when she was in the group Smith.

[@rudolftrost3534]

RIP The Great Burt Bacharach Februari 8, 2023. His talent is gone, but his songs will remain here forever.

[@sashaconrad3939]

He left us many gifts!

4 SURE MEET HIM 1 DAY IN FLA ON A HORSE HE N JERRY MOSS OWND

[@shihlin1]

I wish Adele would go back to doing adventurous songs such as this one. Hard to believe she was only in her early 20's yet she was so musically sophisticated. Yes, Adele, we know you're thin and gorgeous now, but please be reminded of your younger self and make the wondrous musical selections and collaborations you used to make.

[@peterfeltham5612]

Just look at Bacharach''s face during this rendition,he knows just what a truly extraordinary talent this girl is.She is the finest non classical singer of my lifetime,and i'm70 years of age.

[@andym3603]

+peter feltham If your 70 years of age, then you would be pleased to know that Adele's 1st & greatest influences were Ella & Etta James & Dusty Springfield. She has one of the most unique voices because of these influences although I do know she was also influenced by the Spice Girls.

[@voulafisentzidis8830]

could hear the talent from the first note. she's the best of her generation.

[@MusicalJeanAz]

I was thinking just about the same thing.

[@shihlin1]

Her voice has so much R&B weight and layers of vocal colors. Hard to believe she was only in her early 20s here. I actually think she used to be more musically adventurous than she is now.

[@yasminesimpson4235]

I loved this song but this version is just stunning, Adele really makes this song her own , her voice is perfectly beautiful . I adore this ,it’s magical ,stunning and absolutely wonderful. ♥️🇬🇧

[@benlesher1442]

I suggest you listen to The Beatles version I think is the Best. ☘️

[@craigtaylor832]

Ben Ben Ben - when the Beatles tried American R&B they sounded like a garage band - Please Mr Postman? Twist and Shout? Just dreadful - As for Baby It's You best version is the Shirell's but Smith also did a good interpret

[@lynnnaude]

Love her yes!!!

[@garymorris1856]

Beautifully done, however the best cover of this song is the Beatles by a wide margin

[@yhn1inc]

I think Adele found the heartbreak in this song and delivered it beautifully like the artist she is.

[@susanrajabi6539]

You obviously havent listened to Gyle McCormick! Soulful!

[@timmwhite9218]

My Suzi and I sat together and watched this when it first came out, just a month before we got married, all goosebumps and smiles....fast forward to April 2021 and I'm sitting alone @ 1:10 a.m. watching again. This time without my Suzi who passed away here in the same place we were when we first saw this, my most valiant efforts (and all of the firefighters and paramedics who got here so quickly [Thank You All !] ) made no difference...it was her time to go, God had her on deck and she was up ! As I watch I can recall the our smiles but they're not here now, neither are the goosebumps but it still sounds as good....it had quite a few likes back then, about 200,000, now it's up past 800,000, Good to see it's got substance and a following of 'word of mouth' viewers and fans...but it can't bring my Suzi back, just the memories . . . and they were and always will be >>good ones. : I'

[@tomainsworth2189]

Really feel for you Timm, cant believe the hurt you must feel but so glad you have such fond memories.

Adele brought back to life this Shirelles oldie, with a new flavor, love, love, love it! a classic by a classy lady!

[@susanrajabi6539]

Youve got to listen to Gayle McCormick version...soulful and passionate!

[@susanrajabi6539]

Smith has the best version. Soulful rock in 1969!!

[@sinistercitizen3061]

This version doesn’t deviate too much from the Shirelle’s version. She sang beautifully, but many others have done a better cover (the Carpenters, Smith).

[@russ_2024]

[@DRShissler1]

The Shirelles version is in my top 10 favorite songs of all time. But listening to this gave me chills so exciting to hear good music, old or new.

[@JeriFarisLabib]

Daniel Shissler Yeah, shirelles version is more fun than beatles. And this is covering the beatles version of "baby it's you". Cover by cover then getting sucks :)

[@c1nico]

[@davidwhite1919]

It's a mark of a truly great song that there can be lots of versions, all different and excellent in their own way. I was brought up on the Beatles' and Shirelles' versions, but I just love this by Adele.

[@JBCo2012]

+David White check out my fave version by A Group Called Smith on KZbin

[@davidwhite1919]

+MusicMC1 Just listened to the Smith version. I've never heard it before but I see it charted well in the USA in the 60s. I like it but prefer the softer versions by Adele and the Beatles - but perhaps that's just because I'm acquainted with those versions.

Are you serious?this is one of my favorite songs,and I think it sounds gorgeous in her voice.

[@davidsheriff9274]

Have you heard Karen Carpenter's version?

[@deo8709]

The most consistently amazing artist there is. Sounds just as great live as she does on recordings which is the rarest thing in music these days. She was pretty young here and wasn't trying to outshine previous recordings of the song. This was a simple classy tribute, not a new single.

[@sashaconrad3939]

I totally agree!

[@davidhutchinson6377]

She's great....she really is. I love all the versions though..Smith's is my very favorite of all. But this woman rocks.

It's official....Adele is the logical heir to the Dusty Springfield sound....yet she is certainly her own gal! Love you Adele, looking forward to a long, great career for you!

[@mavericklover]

Who can compare Dusty Springfield to any singer out there...she had the most resonance and beauty of any singer I have ever heard in my life and she made you feel...Todays music is different than what came out way back when...you just have to see a progression into something else...trying to remake a Classic is the hardest thing to do...it usually falls flat and sucks...thats what the difference is with Dusty and all the greats compared to today...just take what was then for what it was and today for what it is...they really cannot be compared...

[@mavericklover]

What about Shirley Bassey...when it all comes down to it...its apples and oranges...which ones do you prefer???

[@mavericklover]

Comparing two singers to each other is like comparing two different kinds of fruit to each other...It can be done but WHY BOTHA!???

[@1carlex]

Karen Carpenter has the smoothest clearest voice of any female singer

[@lylecosmopolite]

Adele is so good with the black vocal style of the 1960s. I did not know that this Motownish tune was Bacharach and David. Burt is old enough to be her grandfather. When she and Burt kissed, it was a bridge across 2 generations. RIP Hal David.

The problem with current singers like Adele is that they don't have composers of Bacharach's caliber to write songs for them anymore.

Someone else here commented on the look on Burt Bacharach's face as Adele is singing his tune. Burt's face has the look of absolute delight and wonder as Adele plows thru this song, giving it loads of vocal layers and coloring. Lately I've been wondering what happened to this Adele, she used to be so musically adventurous and bold in her selections and interpretations. I'm almost getting the feel Adele has become complacent as she does her Vegas weekend residency. She's still Adele, but somehow different than the one found here. Simply fantastic here !
