Dionne Warwick, “Don’t Make Me Over”

Dionne’s voice used to be as clear as glass. Sometimes I listen to her early Bacharach songs and can eke out only a “Holy shit.” Did you know that her name is Dionne Warrick, but the record label misspelled it on this single as “Warwick,” so she just kept it? Yikes. Flexible metaphor.

Anyway, songs that are both a plea and a threat: “ACCEPT ME FOR WHAT I AM, ACCEPT FOR ME THE THINGS THAT I DO!”
