Album information

Trijntje Oosterhuis wanted to make an homage to Bacharach, because he wrote so many songs and most people don't even realize how many hits were written by his hand and this was a way that she could offer him the respect he deserves. [ [http://www.bluenote.nl/page/artiest/3768/ Bluenote.nl] Trijntje Oosterhuis page (Dutch). Retrieved: November 23, 2006] Trijntje approached Bacharach that she wanted to do an album with covers of his songs, and subsequently flew to Los Angeles where she asked him whether he would like to play the piano on some tracks. Bacharach picked "Waiting for Charlie to Come Home" (originally written for Etta James) and "This House Is Empty Now" (originally written for Elvis Costello). [Message by Burt Bacharach in the booklet of the album]

The Metropole Orchestra was arranged by Vince Mendoza who gained notoriety for arranging the Grammy winning album "Both Sides Now" by Joni Mitchell. The album was mixed by Al Schmitt.

The album was certified Platinum on the day of release for having shipped more than 70,000 copies [http://www.emimusic.nl/page/artist/10964/ EMImusic.nl] Trijntje Oosterhuis page, "20-11-2006 - Trijntje ontvangt Platina Award tijdens The Look of Love première" Retrieved: November 23, 2006] and debuted at #1 on the Dutch album chart for two weeks.
