The songs are "Don't Look Now," "Photographs Can Lie," and "He's Given Me Things."

Elvis recently told an audience in Belgium that Burt plays piano on two songs. I don't know if Elvis misspoke and it's really all three songs or if Burt plays on only two of the three. Either way, I think it's great news.

Me Japanese Boy,
Thanks for that info—can't wait 'til 12 Oct. to get my hands on this. It's been a long time coming but I'm sure it will be well worth the wait! Also as I scrolled down I noticed where Naked Eyes' 1983 debut album "Burning Bridges" will be re-issued on 31 Aug. /w B sides and an extended, Jelleybean Benitez remix of Bacharach/David's "(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me" and their non-Bacharach hit "Promises Promises" also given the extended remix treatment featuring Madonna. But I'm still wondering what happened to the Bacharach/Costello's Diana Krall project—that would certainly put the icing on the cake!

I thought that I recalled a post of this from a few years ago but had forgotten the title. It`s an execrable vocal performance and I hope he used Bacharach`s arrangement for the recording, but here it is:
