FAITH NO MORE | This Guy's In Love With You

On May 12th Burt Bacharach celebrates his 88th birthday. 

Faith No More first performed their cover of Bacharach's song This Guy's In Love With You on the Album Of The Year tour on September 16th 1997 at 9.30 Club in Washington DC. It has since become a regular song within their set, and their faithful version has become a fan favourite. 

Mike Patton is self confessed Bacharach fan. Mr Bungle covered his song 'What The World Needs Now' and Patton also sang a version of 'She's Gone Away' on the Tzadik release Great Jewish Music: Burt Bacharach.
