I was very lucky to see his show in Las Vegas a few years ago, and got to sit in the front row... and at the end, when he was taking his last bow, he touched a few people with his hand who were in the front row.... I was one of them... he had the softest skin, I don't know what kind of moisturizer he uses, but it has to be a good one.
Rest in peace my dear old friend, Burt Bacharach. I grew up listening to my father spinning your lovely music. Thank you for all you have done for the world.
When is the kid in the early 70s I live in San Antonio Texas. And Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid came out it was a world changing a bit for me. I remember going to see it in the movie theater at North star Mall there. I don’t live there anymore not for a long time. My family went through a whole Lotta problems after that time, my dad was a World War II vet he had a lot of personal problems our whole family went down the drain. But those memories kept me going for all these years at least until I could get my life established Riverhead but that was my introduction to your music sir, and it’s the best thing that ever happened to me. Especially out of that movie I love the song South American getaway I don’t know it’s just something special about it it’s so simple in that use of the human voice for the main sound in it. But I have always loved your music I just wanted to tell you that I hope you see this before the end of your time. I love you.
After 50 Years i have now looked up who wrote the only 20 songs i have ever loved in the radio or at parties or in Movies: Burt Bacharach! A coincidence? Every movie i love, be it "The Party", Soundtrack: Burt Bacharach (and "Alice B. Toklas, I love you!" ). Casino Royale, (the stuttering Anti-Bond-Connection), parodic although perfectly fitting, complete Soundtrack: B.Bacharach. Also really beautyful, serious, while emotionally uplifting and persuading, "the look of love" and many more. Thanks a lot.
bonjour Burt bacacrach très grand chef orchestre inoubliable des musiques que j’adore vous êtes incroyable je ne vous oublierez jamais vous êtes vivant je est toujours suivi dans vos musiques surtout alfie grand homme merci fatiha
Burt, I can't say it enough. I have no ears to hear me in what I'm going to say. One thing you do that nobody else I know can do, and you do it in almost every song you've put forth, yet not quite like the song, FREEFALL.... :32 - :50, and that is that you know how to make a feeling (in a sound) that makes your song look as if you hit the song (as a ball) RIGHT OUT OF THE BALLPARK. However, MR. BURT BACHARACH, in FREEFALL.... I BEG FOR YOU TO COME GET ME, because I can't turn around and listen to the rest of the song after :50. I want to live FOREVER! up in the sky, soaring just like you wrote it at :23, never turning back AND never landing. Also, you gave your Signature away: "Unusual Unusual Unusual". The Prefix: "Once" Twice would mean you would never get there. You got there with me in all your songs -- healing, a place called Home. You wiped out the whole world. Thank you. You have been exceedingly GENEROUS. Bless you. Please LONG LIVE!
I think He is the Lord, for sure. Softest hands? That's the Lord. Best always, never diminishing in QUICK ability to HEAL the entire soul on a SINGLE NOTE He delivers. I return to Him many many times just to get through this life!! You Are So Perfectly Correct, Rota. Thank you for inspiring me to not be shy about saying this. I suspected it for some time now. I just needed One Other to AGREE, to get me this HAPPY!!! 😊
