Favorite Ending to a Bacharach song

Post by Andre B »

No one mentioned the 8-bar (I think) string quartet coda at the end of Dionne's "Let Me Go To Him"... brilliant finishing touch.

the ending to "Alfie" is just heavenly.

I'm also crazy about the intro/outro on "Say a Little Prayer" (Dionne's version)...

Anyone Who Had A Heart

Oh, my goodness...how can no one by now have submitted the dramatic structural intervals and passionate arrangement of the finish to Dionne Warwick's original recording of Anyone Who Had a Heart? It's a perfect, emotional closing for such a heartbreaking song.
