Dionne Warwick’s 1964 hit “Walk On By” is the epitome of chic heartbreak. Written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, it pairs Warwick’s silky, melancholic vocals with Bacharach’s elegant, bossa nova-tinged arrangement. The lyrics capture the pain of seeing an ex and choosing to “walk on by” to hide the tears. A Top 10 hit on release, it became one of Warwick’s signature tunes.
