What's New Pussycat?

"What's New Pussycat?" is the theme song for the eponymous movie, written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David,[1][2] and sung by Welsh singer Tom Jones. The original single included a 13-second instrumental introduction, ending in the sound of shattering glass, but later issues omitted this introduction.[3] Jones was skeptical about the song when first approached about it. He said when it was offered to him, he felt it was "sort of a backhanded compliment: 'I've got to have you, but this is the song.'"[1] Jones said it took convincing from Bacharach to perform it: "When I first heard it I thought, 'Christ! What the bloody hell do they want me to sing this for?' But Burt Bacharach explained, 'I want the big voice to sing this bloody crazy song.' And you put it on, it’s a classic."[1] Links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQvIAs-nPSo
