raindrops keep falling
Walk on by,
and too many to mention.
RIP

Too many to list.

With eight UK number one hits of the 50s and 60s, all by different artists, all of them memorably timeless, and not even mentioning the many more that didn't make the top, he and his usual writing partner Hal David made more impression on our popular culture than most.

I love BB's music. I grew up listening to all of his stuff. There are so many memorable songs.

Do you know the way to San Jose
A house is not a home
This guy's in love with you
Alfie

I could go on and on...

Probably 'Raindrops' but there are so many. A long life well lived

So many wonderful songs, but my favourite has to be "Any Day Now".
