Just about every high school played this song during Graduation season back in those days. Many used it for weddings too. She had a lovely voice and sounded natural in her delivery. I recall there humongous hit of that summer in 1970 was “Close To You”. Beautiful Bacharach at his best. I think Dionne Warrick rejected this song as ‘silly’, and later lived to regret it.
Bacharach wrote incredible melodies. One of the best songwriters ever.
Thanks for starting thread. I missed a lot of my new favs back in the days. Here are some more I play frequently:
Phaedra with Nancy Sinatra and the guy on a horse
The Last Farewell, Roger Whittaker
The End of the World, Skeeter Davis (one with long blonde hair and blue sweater)
Kiss Me Goodbye, Petula Clark, the with a closeup, bangs, sleveless black blouse
