Request for Sharie...

Urgent email from Keith:
Trying to make an oldies CD for Sharie. Trying to find two songs on iTunes. Can't find it under those artists on iTunes. Help!! K

  • First one: lyrics go "this guy's in love with you. yes i'm in love. who looks at you the way i do. etc etc. Any idea who the original artist is? Or the most popular version from the radio?
    johnnyk response: Sounds like a Hal David/Burt Bacharach song made by Herb Alpert (sans Tijuana Brass). Here's a youtube clip of Alpert singing the song on The Carpenters' television show. -lyrics - songfacts.com

  • Second one: lyrics go "you make me so very happy. I'm so glad you came into my life.etc.etc. The Guess Who? Chicago??
    johnnyk response: You're close on this one - it's "You've Made Me So Very Happy" by Blood, Sweat & Tears. (I've included a youtube clip of a 1971 performance of this song below) -lyrics. - songfacts.com
