Dionne Warwick - I Say A Little Prayer
Review by A. P. Nugraha
Dionne Warwick's album "I Say A Little Prayer" is a soulful and passionate collection of songs that showcases her incredible vocal range and emotive delivery. From the upbeat and catchy title track, to the heart-wrenching ballad "Alfie", Warwick's performances are consistently powerful and engaging.
The album features a mix of original songs and covers, including a stunning rendition of "Do You Know The Way To San Jose?" and a soulful take on "What The World Needs Now Is Love". Warwick's voice is backed by lush orchestration and tight arrangements that perfectly complement her vocals.

Does anybody know where I can find a copy of this recording with the session intro heard in this video?
A true classic.
This great composition also has a Finnish cover "Iät ja Ajat" by Eija Merilä: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C3UqvhzdlY
Je rent hommage a se grand messieur de la musique,qui a fait chanter les plus belle voix
Burt Bacharach, Hal David and Dionne Warwick. Greatest Collab ever. Rest in Peace Burt, thank you
RIP! Thanks for the awesome music.
RIP Burt.
Thank you, Mr. Bacharach, for this and so many other beautiful songs.
RIP to a great musician !
What a wonderful collaboration between Dionne and Burt! I was sad to hear of his passing, but his music will live forever!
Dionne definitely sings it better than Wayne Brady
Can we just say it?... For a vocalist this song is INSANE, it is a BEAST!! That tempo combined with the lyrics, the time changes & the interval jumps. My God... How DARE any song composer write this kind of insane $hit? Well, Burt did...Thank God ?
This is a rarity. A Bacharach/David composition where Dionne Warwick's recording is not the definitive version. You have to Aretha Franklin for that!
I absolutely loved this song when it came out.
A titan has passed...R.I.P Burt Bacharach. What a stunning catalog, esp. the ones Dionne and Dusty OWNED.
Rest in peace, Burt Bacharach. You never wrote a bad song!
thank you burt for the enrichment you brought to so many lives. rest in peace.
RIP, Burt. Your beautiful tunes done so well by this beautiful singer.
