Such a classic from Dionne Warwick, those works from her collaboration with Burt Bacharach, I am surprised that there were not more covers from those songs. Maybe there were, but I am not aware of them.

For this song, I think Amanda did well, she's comparable to Dionne's version for sure. But, as a chinese interpretation, it's a fine version.

Amanda is a fine singer without luck. her version is good...of course Dionne Warwick still owns the song...

Amanda's version has a longer intro! I haven't found/heard Cilla Black's re-recording on 1993 "Through The Years"!

New 2006 version 3:33 by Dionne Warwick & Cliff Richard is the closest so far!

Hope someone has or can find Cilla Black's 1993 re-recording! I like Amanda's updated version. Well, she had her chances & her lucks! But she didn't maintain in the music business! Or maybe the digital sharing really did kill the music business!
