Burt Bacharach
"Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" er en sang skrevet af Hal David og Burt Bacharach til filmen Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid fra 1969. Den vandt en Oscar for bedste originale sang. David og Bacharach vandt også prisen for bedste originale filmmusik. Sangen blev indspillet af B. J. Thomas i syv takes, efter at Bacharach havde udtrykt utilfredshed med de første seks takes. I filmversionen af sangen havde Thomas været i bedring efter en halsbetændelse, hvilket fik hans stemme til at lyde mere hæs end i 7-tommersudgaven. I filmversionen var der et separat instrumentalt break i vaudeville-stil i dobbelttakt, mens Paul Newman udførte cykelstunts.
