"Walk On By" is a song written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David for singer Dionne Warwick in 1963.[4] Warwick's recording of the song peaked at number 6 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 1 on the Cash Box Rhythm and Blues Chart In June 1964 and was nominated for a 1965 Grammy Award for the Best Rhythm and Blues Recording.
Isaac Hayes recorded the song five years later, in 1969, and reached number 30 on the Hot 100 chart and number 13 in the R&B charts[5] with his version. "Walk On By" has since charted numerous times in various countries, with wildly different arrangements, as noted below.
In 1998, the 1964 release by Dionne Warwick on Scepter Records was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.[6]
