Heartbreaker: Dionne Warwick’s Best Tracks
___________
IT may seem random putting Dionne Warwick…
and her music into a Lockdown Playlist, but she has been owning Twitter recently, so I thought it would be a nice nod to the legend. Not only is she working with Chance the Rapper and The Weeknd for a charity single, but she thought that Billie Eilish was called ‘William Eyelash’! You have to respect her and, as we head into 2021, I wonder whether Warwick will release a new album. Her thirtieth studio album, Dionne Warwick & the Voices of Christmas, was released in October last year, and I know there is going to demand for more material from her! Because Dionne Warwick is one of the most successful female artists ever – she ranks second to Aretha Franklin as the most-charted female vocalist with sixty-nine singles making the Billboard Hot 100 during the Rock era (1955–1999). Warwick has sold over seventy-five million singles and twenty-five million albums worldwide -, I thought it was only right to pull together some of her best songs to show what…
AN icon she is.
