WWBBD? And, Hal David http://www.rebeccaschiffman.com/2009/11/29/wwbbd-and-hal-david/ http://www.rebeccaschiffman.com/2009/11/29/wwbbd-and-hal-david/#comments Sun, 29 Nov 2009 09:56:26 +0000 admin http://www.rebeccaschiffman.com/?p=1170 UES_bacharachquestion

Hal David wrote most of the lyrics for Burt Bacharach’s music including “Alfie,” in my opinion and limited knowledge, one of the world’s most perfect “songs.”

I love Men (with a capital “M”.)
