Who wrote this old mo-town song, is this Diana Ross?

[riff]

I cannot remember all of the words and probably have them wrong, I don't know the title, but it is something like this:

When you see me walking down the street
Wherever you are, each time we meet.
Walk on by.... (trumpet: bop, bop-bop, bop-bop, bop) Walk on by....

I don't know how it got into my head this morning- as I walked through the cold to the store up the street it came to me.

Be patient with me as I fuck this up....

I think Dionne Warwick performed the song and perhaps, Burt Bacharach wrote it?


Hmmm now this is going to drive me crazy.....

Please someone with the answer, help!

Damned! I'll bet you are right. And it DEFINITELY has the Bacharach ring to it. (Watched a great bio on Angie Dickinson that went through a lot of stuff on her marriage to him. I'd love to see a bio of him too)

You're correct, MissTaken.

There it is. Thanks, girls.

Actually, Hal David wrote the lyrics and Burt wrote the music....they both produced it, however.

Wow! It is going to be a good day, methinks.

I just couldn't remember who Burt partnered with. Growing up, I used to play alot of that music on keyboards.

Me too, MissTaken. I have most of my old piano music at my Mom's old house. I used to buy the music along with the records back in the "good ole days". lol

I'm very happy your day has started on the right note. lol
