RIP

 

[DMoney]

His songs were on the debut albums of the Beatles, Jay-Z, Biggie and Kanye. And the 2022 CanesInSight preseason hype podcast.

The GOAT.

RIP

 

[Ispyin]

Honestly, his song “I say a little prayer for you” should be the theme song for all of us fans for Mario

RIP

I was waiting on baited breath for Fraggle to post about his passing with some sort of sublime linkage to our search for new OC.

Great music. Simpler times!

“Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” is a modern classic.

RIP Legend.

One of the greatest songs of all-time, with two legendary versions:

by the way as a side note, this guy's wife and three ex wives -- two of whom are in their 90s -- are all still alive. so scientifically, burt bacharach is the key to longevity

that vaccine is taking everyone down. very sad.

It actually killed the real Burt almost 2 years ago. It was his NFL supplied body double "Burke" Bacharach that sadly passed now.

But I digress.

Little known fact (except among fellow degenerates), the original Burt was also very accomplished racehorse owner/breeder:

Burt Bacharach was a hit at the racetrack, too

LOS ANGELES — Not all of Burt Bacharach's hits were on the charts. The Oscar-winning songwriter and pianist found success at the racetrack, too.
