(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me (Naked Eyes, 1983; Dionne Warwick, 1968; R. B. Greaves, 1970; Sandie Shaw, 1965; Lou Johnson, 1964). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-01-03. "Keeping the Oldies Alive"

"(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me" was written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David and first recorded by Dionne Warwick as a demo in 1963 (Wikipedia, 2022); subsequently, Bacharach and David had much success with their song; multiple artists hit the Billboard chart with their covers of the song. The first to chart was Lou Johnson in 1964 hitting the #49 position followed by Sandie Shaw a year later peaking at #52. Warwick re-recoded the song, and her new version rose to #65 on the Billboard chart in 1968. Nonetheless, it was R. B. Greaves who broke through the top 40 with his version in 1970 rising to the #27 position; but it was Naked Eyes' rendition that was most successful scoring a #8 position on the chart in 1983 (Whitburn, 2013).
