How about a Filipino Chinese ballad singer singing this song from The Lost Horizon
(a duet with another Filipino Janet Basco)
I think it is as good as the original..

Dear Hereiam,
Thank you for disclosure.
This arrangement was very beautiful and very faithful to the original versions of Burt Bacharach's albuns "Lost Horizon" and "Living Together".
Well, among many musicians pampered by consumerist media Jose Mari Chan showed that his talent is equal to or even better than these musicians.
Unfortunately many people prefer to value what is banal rather than have content.
Best regards.

Yes.. Jose Mari Chan is not only a good singer but a talented songwriter too.
His taste in music is also superb and have you heard of his duet with Jack Jones ,
singing the Bacharach/David's song Wives & Lovers, live in Manila only last month
Here it is:
