Burt Bacharach's 91. birthday: I’m still writing, still touring. It’s gratitude, and it’s attitude

Guardian talked to Burt Bacharach about his career, and about how he still has the urge to write songs. Why? “This is my form of resistance. I can’t stand what’s happening in this country – my country”. There's this one person who he really dislikes - "We must pick somebody who’s capable of getting rid of this guy. I’m not sure he’ll leave even if he loses. They’ll have to drag him out – unless he starts a civil war. He’s very dangerous".
