At the end of last night’s newest Mad Men viewers were shocked to see Don and Betty get back together.
When the episode faded to black, the song we heard at the end was “(There’s) Always Something There To Remind Me” by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, sung by Lou Johnson.
Johnson’s version of the song reached #49 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the summer of 1964, according to Wikipedia.
The lyrics seem pretty appropriate, don’t you think?
I walk along the city streets
You used to walk along with me,
And every step I take reminds me
Of just how we used to be.
Oh, how can I forget you, girl
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
When shadows fall, I pass a small cafe
Where we would dance at night
And I can’t help recalling how it
Take a listen to it here:
