Burt Bacharach and Hal David wrote this song with Gene Pitney in mind. Gene turned it down, saying it wasn't one of their better efforts, and later regretted doing so. Brian Epstein was given the tune and in turn gave it to his clients Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas, who took the record to moderate success in the UK. Dionne Warwick's later version is what we have for you here today, one of so many Bacharach/David songs she recorded over the years.
