Great song, jazz influence. Takes me back to my ‘60s youth when my parents had Herb Alpert on the turntable. Bacharach passed this past year. I can do this. Thank you!

Thanks for posting this! My wife is a former singer that wanted me to learn the female version of this song so she could sing it again. Now I have no excuse. Ha! And as far as famous women singers go, I can’t stand the ones that do all kinds of histrionics with the lyrics (here’s looking at you Mariah).

Well, If I hadn't seen you teach this, I would never have considered learning it, but I have seen you teach it so I will try and learn it. Your channel really is a golden nugget among a mass of mediocre content. Thank you so much for this.

I was probably 11 years old or so when this was playing on the radio non-stop! A beautiful Burt Bacharach / Hal David tune, and now so beautifully taught and accessible to guitar players! What a fantastic lesson; thank you!!!

Great instructive video. We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary last year and this was ‘our’ song - before we tied the knot all those years ago. Now I can properly learn it and play it to my lovely wife. A big thank you.

Nice choice Rob, I've been a fan of Burt Bacharach since dot and was dismayed he didn't get to Adelaide where I was waiting for him. Then he had the nerve to die on me. The least I can do is learn this song you've so brilliantly chosen from his stellar catalogue.

This is gold dust. I didn't think I'd find a guitar lesson for this song but you've nailed it. And it's great to find someone who also can't stand the melismatic maelstrom of the likes of Mariah Carey. Just hold the note as the wonderful Whitney did so beautifully, with only a tiny bit of melisma where it actually added something. Thanks for posting this. Have a great weekend. Myles, London

You actually sing that better than Herb Alpert, I never thought his voice did that song justice and the song was over produced sort of like Phil Spector gone horribly wrong.

I play this one with some fairly standard Travis picking (with pick, but why not fingers) and it sounds good. A little embellishment like a hammer on and it goes well. Thanks to Rob for chording this up with lyrics. A couple new chords to work with, including the thumb!
