Giuliana D'Addazio
Typical Burt, if you know him. The way he conducts is how it should be. given the orchestra directions and give the singer space to get in to it. no one, and i say no one conducts the way as he does. Burt is not only an extra ordinary composer but also a briliant conductor and Always guide the singer in every way. And yes it took 17 takes before Burt was satisfied, because Burt is an perfectionist and yes, George Martin said to Burt, Burt what are you looking for? And Burt said, some magic, more magic and George said to Burt, i think we had it in the fourth take? Cilla later said in an interview about Burt, it is Burt and he is georgeous and not a quasimodo! Thank you Cilla for letting this record to be a standard, George thank you for being in the studio and Burt thank you for guiding Cilla in this georgeous song and to Hal, for writing this unbelieveable lyrics!
