I agree. My generation is deprived of the great music my folks grew up listening to. I enjoy watching & listening to those great songs on YouTube.

I was just talking about him the other day and what a great writer he was, he teamed up with Hal David on many songs and those were some of his best.

Every time I hear this song I think about her. I did love her but wasn't ready to settle down. Maybe I made a mistake.

The album he did with Elvis Costello was outstanding.

Definitely a happier times composer.

Sorry to hear this, he sure had a niche in the music industry.

Excellent songs. I always thought his name, and songs sounded like a caramel candy.
Evidently God needs some new songs for his angels.

One of the best songriters ever, if not the very best of them all.....and that's a lot to say.

You will be greatly missed Burt Bacharach, but your beautiful music will live forever. RIP
