BIO- HAL DAVID 11 11 "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on my Head", "This Guy's in Love With You , and !'11 11 Never Fall in Love Again , are just three of the hits in a string of standards written by Academy Award-winning lyricist Hal David. 11 Raindrops", which was in the movie Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, garnered an Oscar, "Don't Make Me Over", "Close to You" and "Walk on Bi' are all in the Grammy Hall ofFame. "What The World Needs Now is Love'' was proclaimed "The Towering Song" by the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2004, distinguished by its unforgettable melody and prayerful plain-spoken words that sound utterly contemporary today when conflict is so wide-spread around the world, even though it was written in 1965. 11 11 11 11 In addition, What's New Pussycat", Alfie , and ''The Look ofLove received Oscar nominations. Amongst Hal David's million-sellers, all of which have become Pop standards, are 11 11 "Do You Know the Way to San Jose , Walk on By", "What The World Needs Now is Love", "I Say a Little Prayer", "(There's) Always Something There to Remind Me'', "One Less Bell To Answer'' and "To All The Girls I've Loved Before". When Dionne Warwick recorded Hal David's hit song "What the World Needs Now Is Love", she commented that she felt it "should be the new national anthem". Small wonder that Hal David has been honored for his way with words with every major award bestowed by the music industry, including 20 gold records, several Grammys, the NARM Presidential Award, and the B'Nai B'rith Creative Achievement Award. He has also been elected to the Songwriter's Hall of Fame, and has been presented with their coveted Johnny Mercer A ward. Mr. David was awarded the prestigious Grammy Trustees Award by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. Hal David received the esteemed Ivor Novello Award from the British Performing Rights Society (the first non-British person to ever receive that award). In addition, Mr. David wrote the lyrics for film scores to Alfie, What's New Pussycat, Casino Royale, The April Fools, A House is not a Home, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and Moonraker. Hal David has been elected to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame for his many country hits, including "To All The Girls I've Loved Before'', which garnered a Top country Hit of the Year Award when the famed country singer Willie Nelson duetted with the Latin star Julio Iglesias to record the hugely successful song.
