Sadly, the first time I could associate the name Dionne Warwick with anything was when I saw her doing commercials for the Psychic Friends Network. Shortly thereafter, I found out that she was actually the singer of a couple of songs that I was very familiar with. Even as a kid, it puzzled me as to why someone who sang those great songs I had heard throughout my childhood would be doing commercials for the Psychic Friends Network. It just seemed so odd. Regardless, it was never something that discredited her past musical work for me, and I eventually found more songs of hers that I enjoyed besides the couple that I knew at an early age.
