RIP Burt Bacharach. I love this one, which for all its tricky syncopations is fresh and free and swinging. The State of the Union is seldom intrinsically interesting; I do recall the first of Bill Clinton’s ass-breaking-long SOTUs showing his tendency to bury the opposition under an avalanche of proposals, but I have no memory of which if any of those proposals ever saw life.
