The Burt Bacharach Discussion Forum

I want to add my "Merry Christmas" and "Happy Holiday" greetings to all my fellow Burt-o-philes out there! Just tonight, I was watching a rerun of "Will and Grace." The scene had Karen (Megan Mullaly) and Lorraine Finster (Minnie Driver) sitting in a limo. Lorraine had put on some modern pop tripe on the radio or CD player, and Karen changes it. "It's my limo!" she says. The channel she changes to is offering "A House Is Not a Home" with Dionne singing. The two of them sing along. Then, the usual upbeat, frenetic piano back music that accompanies the show, does oa riff on the "AHINAH" melody. A great in-joke or whatever for those who know. Above all, it shows what real class Burt's music has always had.
