Editorial Reviews

The album features some of Burt Bacharach and Hal David's most memorable co-compositions and sees Rumer bring her extensive experience and singular talent to bear on her most enticing undertaking to date. Recorded at the renowned Capitol Studios with accomplished arranger, composer and orchestrator, Rob Shirakbari - THIS GIRL'S IN LOVE includes an appearance by Bacharach himself on piano. To mark the news, Rumer has shared a first track "(They Long To Be) Close To You," with live plans to be announced shortly.

What's most fitting to THIS GIRL'S IN LOVE is the personal relationship between Rumer and Shirakbari. The pair married in 2015 in Shirakbari's native Arkansas after first meeting at a Dionne Warwick gala at the Royal Albert Hall where Rumer was to sing a duet of Bacharach & David's "Hasbrook Heights." With Shirakbari having worked for 25 years with Bacharach and 30 years with Dionne Warwick-serving as musical director to them both-this could even be deemed "a Bacharach romance." It was a natural project for the newly married couple to create together, with both having great respect and reverence for the song catalogue.

Some of the songs on THIS GIRL'S IN LOVE are as familiar as any from the 20th century. Which is why Rumer and Shirakbari decided, in many cases, to remake/remodel them, affording these standards a melancholia that gets right to the emotive core of Bacharach's melodies and David's lyrics. Where before "(They Long to Be) Close to You" might have been slightly wistful, here there is a sense that the lyric's longing is unlikely to be consummated. "The Look of Love" is more sepulchral, with just a taste of the bossa nova tendencies of the '60s versions. "You'll Never Get To Heaven" has all the sophistication of Dionne Warwick's take, but with a new attention to the cautionary narrative of the lyrics. And Rumer has dug deeper into the catalogue to find the hidden treasure "Balance of Nature" and made it her own.

A Very Special Singer....

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

What can I say? Rumer was born to sing Bacharach & David! Her delivery is easy and effortless on these songs which she gives her unique treatment while still retaining the familiarity that timeless compositions should evoke. I discovered some B&D tunes in this group that were new to me, and they are equally as enjoyable. (I don’t hear songs like these being written today, and that’s unfortunate.) The production, arrangements, song selection and performances are first rate. I don’t purchase many albums, but those I do are typically played a few times, given a “That’s nice.” and put aside. Not this one—it’s pretty special. Rumer really inhabits these songs (recorded by a variety of artists over the years) and makes them her own, and that’s not an easy task to pull off with songs that have been around awhile. I love the haunting, melancholy treatment of Close to You. Other standouts: The Look of Love, Balance of Nature (lovely background harmony!), A House is Not a Home. This is her best yet—a wonderful, relaxing, gem of an album! There’s nothing I didn’t like...

What the World Needs Now is Rumer!

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2017

Verified Purchase

Rumer keeps her streak alive of 5 star releases! This is some soothing ear candy for sure. When she covers Burt Bacharach and Hal David how could it not be great?

These songs have been covered by The Carpenters, Fifth Dimension, Dionne Warwick to name a few. The songs were all beautiful by the original artists, however Rumer makes them her own on this release. Her voice is just so warming and wonderful to listen to. If you enjoy the sounds of Rumer you will enjoy these classics. She gives each song her own signature style. We the listener are rewarded with yet another beautiful volume of great music!

Rumer is one of the great voices of our time

Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2016

Verified Purchase

Rumer is one of the great voices of our time. I like to call her "a song's best friend", because even though she has a beautifully flawless voice, she knows to step aside for a great song. Not many singers, not even many legends, could pull off an album of songs this well-known and beloved, but because she respects the songs, she does it beautifully. Get this album, pour a glass of wine, and be prepared to be caressed by the sounds of Rumer. Listening to her is like being wrapped in a warm blanket, and You'll be taken back to a more simple time, where great music was made.

Absolutely terrific tribute album

Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2017

Verified Purchase

One would acquire a goodly sized music collection by focusing exclusively on albums paying tribute to the genius of Bacharach and David. I own several and am still amazed at the quantity of superlative songs written by this team during a two decade period. This cd is, in my opinion, one of the best. Beautiful voice and stylish arrangements with a touch of jazz on several songs. Well worth obtaining & it's an album so lovely that repeated listening is never boring.

Rumer does a nice job with this material! Well recorded and produced. She holds her own which isn't easy when the song in your head was sung by the likes of Dusty Springfield and Dionne Warwick. Worth the listen, you'll enjoy it!

Those CDs with music of Bacharach/David are absolutely amazing! The SOUND, the VOICES and the ORCHESTRAS are wonderful. Best of the best!!!!! Try to get those titles, if you like those songs but tired of the conventional versions.

Just A Little Too Middle Of The Road

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 19, 2017

Verified Purchase

On paper this is a match made in Heaven; Rumer's amazing voice plus Bacharach & David's classic songs.

And indeed it does what it says on the box, but for me there is a spark missing.

The recording is fine, Rumer's voice is as wonderful as ever and the songs are timeless... but it's all just a little too "safe" and middle of the road. This is not an album that is likely to offend anyone ;)

I think it's the arrangements that are lacking; they could have been far more adventurous.

For an example of a great voice, great songs and amazing orchestration I'd recommend Mary Chapin Carpenter's 'Songs From The Movie' album which I recently discovered and is breathtakingly beautiful.

This Guy Loves You Too

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 14, 2017

Verified Purchase

waited a long time for this well worth the wait, just wish Burt Bacharach had not attempted to sing, it was all going so well up until then, reminds me of all those stupid comments by fans on many a Crowded House release, you hear them once and they are a novelty, after that it's just irritating, Burt you need to know your limitations stick to producing and writing
Rumer is a doll, an Angel, just superb and the production values are to die for, the songs sound so fresh.

Really lovely! - Almost hypnotic.

If you like Rumer, Bacharach or both, you will really enjoy this. My Vinyl album version sounds sweet and it comes with a free download version too (redeemable via token inside), which I wasn't aware of at the time of purchase,
Silky smooth vocals with Bacharach heritage. Lovely. Whilst the other versions will always be great, this is well worthy of playing instead of and equally as enjoyable or more so due to the use of more recent techniques in recording and manufacturing of media.

She has the sultry tones of a new Karen Carpenter, but it's recognisably Rumer not Karen. if you like Bacharach and Davd, then you should love this, her voice is perfect for it. Dream your way to bliss.

Rumer's voice is so beautiful and she brings real poignancy to the exceptional song-writing of Bacharach-David. An absolute favourite to listen to with subtle musical arrangements that bring Rumer's voice to the foreground.
