15. herb alpert, "this guy's in love with you"
why here? electric pianos and electric light orchestras go so well together, i think.
why this song? one of those 'frame of mind' songs. besides that, it's a beautiful, breathless, hopeful thing, comfortably resting on the edge of a precipice, piano lines cascading like waterfalls. why bacharach thought to give this to alpert, i'll never know, but i guess that's why he's the master.
