This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #WindowsAndDoors. Although this tune isn't one of my top Jackie DeShannon or Bacharach/David favorites, it is an obvious choice for this theme:

When Jim Henson Productions and Sony wanted to make something along the lines of Jim Henson’s “The Dark Chrystal” or “Labyrinth” they approached graphic novelist Neil Gaiman and illustrator Dave McKean, who had previously collaborated on the graphic novel series “Black Orchid” (1988), “The Sandman” (1989-1996) and children’s book “Coraline” (2002). The result was this very artful journey through a fantasy world. Almost every scene is chock-full of imaginative designs and special effects for which about 15 young animators were hired, almost all of them just graduated from the local art school.

The songs in the soundtrack are “(They Long To Be) Close to you” (a cover of the classic written by Burt Bacharach & Hal David), sung by Josefine Cronholm, and “If I Apologise” (written by Dave McKean and Neil Gaiman) sung by Josefine Cronholm & Ashley Slater.

Hey! Little Girl
Comb your hair
Fix your makeup
Soon he will open the 🚪
Don't think because
there's a 💍 on your 🖕🏻
You needn't try anymore
For wives should always
be lovers too
Run to his arms
the moment he comes 🏡 2U
I'm WARNING you😖

I know people don’t rate it much but I was taken to see tha film of #LostHorizon as a child in 1973. It totally captured my imagination and I fell in love with #BurtBacharach and #HalDavid then and there. I rewatch that film on occasion. It means a lot to me.
