I loved loved loved loved watching him conduct. So passionate. So generous. I’m grateful to my parents for having his music on constantly when I was a child. I was 13 when LH was out. I loved it then and love it now. The critics never swayed me. I know it’s not perfect. I love it for what it is. And isn’t.

My name is Diana Lee and I’m retired from a busy and blessed studio singing career, a highlight of which was singing this wonderful song for the actress Liv Ullman, along with her other songs in the film. Burt and Hal were treasures to work with and fully supported me, same with Ms. Ullmann. Great memories, from 1972.

The dubbing for both Ullmann and Finch is spot on and beautiful. Lost Horizon came out at a time when "old Hollywood" was being rejected by critics for the new edgy era of filmmaking that EASY RIDER ushered in. Non the less, it's a lavish film, handsomely crafted with a wonderful score. The music is what I like best about LH. The film has legs.

@@cscarson8798 Thanks! It was a wonderful experience. And for the record….Finch was dubbed by my ex husband, Jerry Whitman and I agree, he did an awesome job, approached it the way an actor-singer would, so it was very believable. I loved the duet, I Might Frighten Her Away and how it was filmed.

Quedé atrapado en el amor por la música de Burt Bacharach, desde el primer instante que la escuché. En especial, la música de esta maravillosa película me trae muchísimos recuerdos de mi infancia. Bella, llena de mensajes positivos y extraordinariamente detonadora de sensaciones. Amo la música de Burt Bacharach y siempre lo haré. Descanse en paz el gran maestro que llenó el mundo con su incomparable talento. El compositor con pinta de galán de cine.

I’m doing the same on piano, and you’re absolutely right. If you haven’t done so, check out his title track for after the fox. On the surface, it seems like a silly, frothy cartoon song. But there are equally amazing chord changes, with an unusual modulation from the verse to the chorus. and Bacharach’s genius makes it work perfectly.

This song can’t simply be categorized as “children’s music,” though it does fit that bill. The magical chromatic melody, those varying-length melodic lines over sophisticated chord progressions, it's all triumphantly BACHARACH. And kudos to Hal David for his lyrics about circles, reverse impressions,, yin/yang, and so on. And what an unexpected treat to see that Bacharach is being interviewed by Rex Harrison! Now I’m hearing “why can’t English teach their children how to speak…”
