I only knew Naked Eyes.
Naked Eyes had a hit with this in the 80s. I had no idea it was an old Bacharach song.
Here’s the original version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRlV4kP9EQg
I’ve always loved the Sandie Shaw version. Huge huge hit in the UK. Only a minor hit in the US.
If you’ve got a song written by Burt, Carole King or Laura Nyro you cannot go wrong! :)

Interesting to listen to three versions. Have to say Naked Eyes killed it though.

Something about her voice. Doesn’t work with the song to my untrained ear...
