In a word...endearing

Like Burt said, maybe the best lyrics every written by anybody. Kudos to Hal David. The music is deliciously under stated. The best ever.

He, like Paul Williams, can't sing worth a snap but MAN has he written some great songs.

just one word "Idiot"

@B0njiB He never had any pretense about being a great singer. He is renowned for being a great songwriter/ composer/ arranger/ conductor. Talent doesn't require for everyone to sing like your idol Justin Beiber so get a life. ;-P

alfie is god

Alfie seems to be a carefree guy who hasn't fallen in love and maybe doesn't believe it exists because his heart wasn't involved before and the singer asks him about love and tells him there is true love if he uses his heart to find it. Maybe he's a playboy type?



A genius songwriter with so many hits over the years.
His songbook is filled with winners.

I feel touched by this man's honest emotion through his old, broken voice, expressed with the gentle acceptancing heart that sometimes seems to shine through in in some people, in old age. Heart breathing, beautiful.
