    Girl, indeed. Miss Dusty & Miss Aretha. Talk about legends!
    Dusty had many hits. One of her most famous & beloved is "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me". Check it out to hear her more serious side & truly grand talent.

Much more gospel, with a couples of "Hallelujah's" thrown in. A few "Sock it to me's" too. Search YT for "Aretha Franklin’s musical genius in 2 songs." Really interesting.

      Right On! She hosted Ready Steady Go The Sounds Of Motown in 1965. She also did the first interracial duet with Martha Reeves & The Vandellas where they sang Wishing & Hoping. She was the first blue eyed soul singer to come out of England. to many she kicked the door for Amy Winehouse and Adele. England, Scotland, & Britian have had the best Blue Eyed Soul Singers. Others who are fantastic are
      Nadine Coyle Of Girls Aloud, Duffy, and Ruthanne not to mention Lisa Stansfield. Go down that Rabbit Hole. She started out in a singing trio called The Lana Sisters patterned after the Andrew Singers, then A Folk Group The Springfields, then she went solo. Her real name is Mary Catherine Elizabeth O'Brien.

    Dusty (born Mary O'Brien in London) was a legendary singer whose popularity in the '60s was second to none among female singers. This song came out at the end of the decade when she made the decision to sign with Atlantic Records and record in Memphis with Jerry Wexler, Tom Dowd, and the best soul & r&b musicians in town. Her career tailspinned due to illness and romantic disappointments. Though known in the industry, it was later revealed that she was gay. It wasn't until The Pet Shop Boys asked her to sing on "What Did I Do to Deserve This?" in 1987 that her career recovered. However, cancer took her in 1999 at the young age of 59. You should really listen to her incredible rendition of Bacharach-David's "The Look of Love." Talk about smoking hot vocals!

    I heard this song for the first time ine the spring of 1969. I thought Ms. Springfield must have grown up somewhere in Alabama or Georgia because she sang like a Southern Girl. Imagine my surprise when I learned she was born in Ireland and grew up in England. Regardless of her birthplace she was one of the greatist vocalists that ever lived.

      Just to clarify; she was born, raised, lived and died in London. Her parents were both Irish immigrants to England though. Her birth name is the very Irish sounding "Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien". To me, "Dusty Springfield" sounds like a name an American would have.

    Dusty was 3/4 blind - and some of the dance moves were to distract from the fact that she couldn't see what she was doing or where she was. I don't think I've ever seen her take a step on stage - all the dancing is upper body. Saw a documentary about her some years back. Iconic singer, and quite an activist for the underprivileged.

    Dusty Springfield came out of retirement in the 80's and did a song with a group called the Pet Shop Boys and set the charts ON FIRE! They were one of the biggest groups at the time and the fact that she decided to grace their single propelled the song into the stratosphere.
    Since you love her voice you should check it out. It really was a big deal at the time. Everybody was thrilled to have Dusty back, if just for the one song. The song is called "What Have I Done to Deserve This"

    You have to understand the times… Dusty was known as first part of a group of British folk singers. Then as a single artist she sang powerful songs , ballads played on the radio, and dressed fashionably. She was not square but definitely not part of the counter culture. Then she released, Dusty in Memphis. In 1970 , Memphis was perceived as the home of blues, the raw delta soul music( not the smooth Motown but the raw emotions of Aretha, Otis, Sam and Dave etc) and of course Elvis. Then Dusty released her album that changed her career and influenced female singers then and to this day. The first time I heard Amy Winehouse I could hear the echoes of Dusty. Enjoy your discovery of a talented artist that refused to be defined by the media or record executives.

    You have to dive into more of her. I Only Want To Be With You is a great up tempo song, with a really good cover later on by The Bay City Rollers (who you would no doubt enjoy). Dusty’s You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me is an awesome romantic ballad. Check out more Dusty, please!!!

    I lived in England around this time and this hairstyle was popular. Once, when I was 15, I was in in a movie theater with two friends who smoked, one sitting on either side of me. One leaned in front of me as the other lit his cigarette, lighting the hair on fire of the girl sitting in front me. We were all blowing it out, when she turned to me and said, "I suppose you think that's funny". True story. There were no flames, just a lot of sparks and the smell of burnt hair.

    Like the Righteous Brothers, music called "blue eyed soul." Aretha Franklin praised Dusty for this song. It was used in a scene in Pulp Fiction where Uma
    Thurman meets John Travolta. Good music and casting choices from Quentin Tarantino.

    I think this was the first Dusty Springfield song I ever heard. I had the idea that she was a Southern American singer before I found out she was English, probably because the song conjures up images of a preacher in a Southern town. This song got new popularity in the 90s when it was in Pulp Fiction.

    This was an awesome reaction, Britt! This is one of my favorite songs by Dusty, along with “Breakfast in Bed” and “Just A Little Lovin’”. My buddy put me on to her music when we were in High School, and even though it was recorded and released way before he and I were even a thought in our parents minds, we both really vibed with it! You were saying you could tell she’s got some soul in her and that’s definitely true! She was originally from England, but traveled to Memphis to record one of her most well known albums, Dusty in Memphis, which had this song on it. I have the song on 45, as well as that album on vinyl, and it’s one of my favorite albums in my ever growing collection. Music definitely transcends generations and will always find new fans, and the connections we’ll all make through that is the best! Just like how you always end your videos, Hopefully you have the day you deserve and the best day ever as well!! - Winston

    I first saw heard Dusty when I was 12 years old and the US Navy had us living in Scotland. At that time, she was singing with her brother Tom and Tim Feild. They were called The Springfields. Their music was along the lines of folk pop. I always loved her voice.

    I always thought Dusty Springfield was a Southern woman based on this type of song, but she's British! She had a huge hit with If You Go Away, which is an English translation of a French song. You should review the version she sang at the BBC. She starts out in English and also includes some of the French lyrics. The original song is called Ne Me Quitte Pas. Jesse Cook covered it in his Blue album and it's intense!

      After I found out she was a white English lady, she instantly became one of my favorite artists and that's never changed now that I'm in my 40s. For someone to come from her background and sing soul as good as the queens of soul? Stunning ability.

    My favorite story about Dusty Springfield: Early in her career, Dusty and her band did a series of performances in South Africa. At the time, South Africa was still under "apartheid" (forced segregation of blacks and whites). But Dusty slipped a clause into her contract that said she would only perform in venues that allowed integrated audiences. After several very successful performances before mixed crowds, the South African government decided she was a troublemaker, and "encouraged" her to leave the country, going as far as having the police "escort" her to the airport. So, not only a brilliant performer, but a badass activist as well.

She was responsible for bringing all the greatest Motown artists to appear together on her UK TV show and turning us on to their music. Other comments have already suggested some of her biggest hits.

    Dusty Springfield was a wonderfuul part of the British Invasion of the '60s, but she also fit into the "Bluie Eyed Soul" sound as well. This was her best song, by far. But she had some other great ones. Including:
    "I Only Want to Be With You" (1963)
    "Wishin' and Hopin'" (1964)
    "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" (1966)
    "The Look Of Love" (1967) * (MUST HEAR)
    We lost Dusty much too soon. #CancerSucks

    She had such a beautiful, gorgeous voice. Her career extended from the early 60's to around 2000. She could sing anything, but she had the most sultry, sexy voice. This is from her album "Dusty in Memphis". She was British, and she brought country music to the UK with this. She was one of the best female "Blue Eyed Soul" singers ever.
