I'm not ashamed to say I'm a Burt Bacharach fan.
Heard the Strangler's version of "Walk on by" today on Radio 2 and it has now surpassed the Dionne Warwick one in my list of faves. But don't worry, I'm still loyal and frankly think that "Anyone who had a heart" by Warwick which was recorded in the same session by far the superior song.

Ah yes, one of the best cover versions ever! Great song, fantastic version!
There's a Strangler's version? Never heard it. I'll check that out!

Am off to check out cover version now
A quiz night?! I'm not sure I'd be any good at one set in a firepower museum :)
Are you good at them?
Quiz nights? Unfortunately, I am pretty rubbish at them.
The Isaac Hayes version certainly slays them all.
Have you seen this?

thanks for that link. What a great site. I used to have loads of version os "Summertime" from the the George Gershwin musical. One of the few songs I can sing!
