My commercial 45, confirmed as Scepter 1274, with deadwax info of
"50177", has a listed time of (2:58), but an actual time of (2:52). The many
current db CDs that include this song have runtimes ranging from (2:44) to
(2:55).

Just wanted to add that this is one of my favorite 60's songs of all time. At a time when music was becoming British infused this remains one of the Burt Bacharach legendary classics. This song does not get enough praise.

My recommendations:

Mono 45 - The Complete 1960s Singles Plus
Stereo LP - Make Way For Dionne Warwick

One of the reasons I mention this is that Doja Cat Paint The Town Red has sampled the song. One of the few instances I can remember in this day and age a 60's sound is used 60 years later...

Oh and for the completest check out Odds & Ends - Scepter Records Rarities from 2018 for the German and Italian sung versions.
