Cast of "Going Bacharach" performs live on "Good Day New York"

For over 70 years a legendary Burt Bacharach helped provide the soundtrack to American pop music with his timeless hits. The Off-Broadway musical review Going Bacharach is celebrating his legacy with fresh arrangements on some of his most beloved songs. The cast is joining us right now with the classic What the World Needs Now is Love and We Need It. Here they are, Going Bacharach. Is love, sweet love, the only thing? It's just too little love and hillside. Enough to climb oceans and rivers. Enough to cross, enough to last. Is love, sweet love, not just for some, but for all? Or listen, if you want. Okay. A little bit about the show. Well, it was created by myself, Will Freewald and Jack Lewin and Ted Firth. And it's all of Burt Bacharach's music, which is the soundtrack to most of our lives. And yeah, it's been a wonderful pleasure to put this music together, you know, and play the songs, some of them like they were originally, and then reinvent some of them in a new way. Which ones did you reinvent? We reinvented Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head. Really? We'll have to come and see the show to find out just what we did. So is it sort of like a concert, or is it like a storytelling? Concert. Concert. It's more of a concert. But there's some storytelling, too, yeah. There's a little bit, yeah. And Burt Bacharach, I mean, he was an incredible songwriter, musician. His music makes you happy, and yet is like the perfect description of everything, right? Absolutely. Do we have a favorite song? Anybody have a favorite song? I mean, I'm so lucky I get to sing Alfie, which I think is one of the most beautiful melodies in the world. So I feel very lucky having that one. But there's so many great songs. John, do you have one? A House is Not a Home. I really enjoy singing that, yeah. Mika? That's such a good song. It's beautiful. Mine is a very obscure one called Whoever You Are, which is from the musical Promises Promises. Oh, so have we had any of, like, Burt Bacharach's muses come in, like Dionne Warwick, who used to sing a lot of... I don't know. Did I read somewhere that Burt Bacharach wrote for Dionne Warwick? Oh, yeah. Absolutely. There's a moment in the show, John, you talk about how he was kind of the muse to bring both Burt and Hal's lyrics out. Yeah, I feel like Burt, Hal David, and Dionne Warwick, I feel like that really is the whole unit that made it what it was, you know? Anyway, beautiful show. So we can go see Going Burt Bacharach, the songs of an icon, playing off-Broadway right now at the Marjorie S. Steen Little Theater. 10 West 64th Street through November 29th. We've got another month. We've got to go see it. Thank you so much. Thank you. Appreciate it. All right.
