With few exceptions, Burt Bacharach probably wrote more songs that I find myself singing than anyone and, I'll bet he's been covered by more artists than just about anyone.
Here's a sampling of artists who have covered "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself:
Elvis Costello:
Dusty Springfield:
The White Stripes:
I always liked the Dionne Warwick version of the song but I can't find it online so here she is singing another great Bacharach song, "Walk on By":
When I was a little kid my very favorite song was "What's New Pussycat?". I wore out my mom's Tom Jones album:
Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Do You Know The Way To San Jose

Ha! mismi, I remember trying to tell someone that was a Burt Bacharach song and they just would not believe me. Thanks.
I've never heard that version of "San Jose", djjd. I think a thousand people have covered that song and I don't recall ever hearing a version I haven't liked. It's one song that is impossible to ruin.
