Lyrics:
Walk on by, walk on by
Just make believe
That you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
In private because each time I see you
I break down and cry
Walk on by
(Don't stop)
And walk on by
(Don't stop)
And walk on by

0:13 that "walk on by" is my absolute fav part of the song.

Voice of an angel! Clear, raw, pure!!!

💛 Dionne & Aretha versions. RIP Queen Aretha!

[@DeeDeeWarwickMusic]

Both versions - background vocals by Dee Dee Warwick

[@MichaelJohnson-wk8tk]

I didn't know the Queen did this song. I love her version after hearing it once. I have need to compare it to Dionne's because both are sublime. Thanks for sharing!

[@stevenlewis8522]

I've always loved this version. So much feeling. She knows exactly what she's singing about. No playing around!

[@lalouloune6156]

Yep, she can really sing.

[@31Alden]

Divinely inspired and performed by the one and only Aretha Franklin.

[@shabrethajennings7291]

I think every song I've heard Aretha cover to me I always like her versions better than the originals.

[@MichaelN.Fletcher]

Thanks for sharing.First time I heard this version

[@louisianacreoleandproud]

❤ 50s/60s music is the best! R.I.P Aretha and ofc… shoutout to Dionne Warwick!

[@Little_body_biggest_fan]

YESSS I hate being someone who says this but I was born in the wrong generation Ik gen alpha and i literally love music like this I can’t explain it but it’s just a wonderful sensation

[@debhoult3330]

This song shows exactly why she is known as Queen of Soul.

Many princesses will come and go. The QUEEN, Ms. Aretha Franklin, will remain the queen.

[@markwilliams6378]

Ms Aretha may not have had the best voice but she sure could interpret a song and translate the meaning the writer was trying to convey

[@sheilapalmer9539]

She was the goat

[@LoveOneAnotherHeSaid]

She was a human.

[@bretkindell6887]

don't think she could only sing soul..Aretha had a 100 year voice. close your eyes and imagine her belting out a good rock tune or other. she could of been the queen of any music genre. she passed 8-16-18 and I miss her so. brought so many memories to me and others..love you Ms Franklin forevermore

[@kimgordon3695]

Sweet tribute ❣️

I never knew Queen Aretha covered this song. She def did her thing.

[@richieslimbach]

Best version of this great song, and I've heard plenty of singers sing this song, but Aretha does it the best.

[@briangasser973]

This is Dionne's song. Burt Bacharach wrote it specifically for her vocal capability.

[@arkotk]

Soul music should be the music style of 21st century. We can all use it now!

[@jazztime7186]

Imagine owning an original Vincent Van Gogh painting and hanging it in your laundry room. That's kind of like what Columbia did with Aretha, though some of the recordings were brilliant regardless (I'd say this is a great uptown soul recording). By 1964, Southern soul was definitely a thing, Otis Redding and other deep soul singers were making waves, and Columbia was still sending Aretha into orchestral sessions and hoping she could cross over like Nancy Wilson. I'm sure it made a certain amount of sense in the marketplace of 1964, because the mainstream pop market was bigger than the R&B market. But in the long run, Columbia would have sold about 100x more Aretha Franklin records if they had understood her gifts a little better.

[@barbaraross5256]

Wow, she can sing anything 🎵🎶🎼🎧🎙️📸.

[@sheilapalmer9539]

[@kittyblak393]

My two favorites of aretha are two lesser known songs My Way and What a Difference 🥰, btw theres a video of Aretha and Dionne singing together, all i could say is it took courage to stand on stage with Aretha in her prime 😶😶

[@windorsolarplease4314]

Ms. Aretha Franklin one in a million. Just a few grace us and she did with her talent.

[@jackiesmith1325]

Love me some Aretha Franklin. I miss her. 😢

[@blainekeller6057]

She covers Burt tunes like no other

[@Pastore-cx9qe]

Like no other? The only Bacharach cover she ever had any success with is "I Say A Little Prayer". Otherwise, Dionne owns the Bacharach compositions "like no other".

[@memoirsofamariah211]

Would've loved to see her do a live performance of this. Her live improv always are impressive. Also I think an arrangement like Florence Ballard's Walk On By version would've fit Aretha really well.

[@ItsKayCiiBaee]

I know this isn’t this original just a cover but I love it and as a doja fan I’m glad she took a snippet of this😩😭🤎

sometime when you're feeling like lucid, could you explain what that silly expression truly means - because however I flip it over, it's just a shit stupid comment.

[@mohammedguedouar7696]

Tout ce qu'elle chante ou reprend se transforme en or! Sous sa voix, même un bottin chanté, devient un chef-d' oeuvre ! Du ''Walk on by'' guilleret de D .Warwick, A. Franklin en fait une ballade langoureuse qui emporte, pour sûr, tous les coeurs, s'appropriant la chanson, comme écrite pour elle ! Repose en paix!

I was pretty young when this came out and a big Dionne Warwick fan. This is early Aretha when she was doing covers of songs on Capital Records. Always felt guilty liking this one better, like I was betraying Dionne! 😬

[@electionevie2693]

What year was this recorded?

[@rhondak.craven5785]

@@electionevie2693 1964, on her last album with Columbia, "Runnin' Out of Fools". Dionne's original was released in April 1964. Aretha's album was mostly covers of other folks' songs, but "Runnin' Out of Fools" was her one hit from it.
