- Marianne Evelyn Gabriel Faithfull (29 December 1946 - 30 January 2025) was an English singer and actress. She achieved popularity in the 1960s with the release of her UK top 5 single "As Tears Go By" and became one of the lead female artists during the British Invasion in the United States.
Born in Hampstead, London, Faithfull began her career in 1964 after attending a party for the Rolling Stones, where she was discovered by Andrew Loog Oldham. Her debut studio album Marianne Faithfull (1965, released simultaneously with her studio album Come My Way), was a commercial success followed by a number of albums on Decca Records. From 1966 to 1970, she had a highly publicised romantic relationship with Mick Jagger.
Her popularity was enhanced by her film roles, such as those in I'll Never Forget What's'isname (1967), The Girl on a Motorcycle (1968) and Hamlet (1969). However, her popularity was overshadowed by personal problems in the 1970s. During this time, she was anorexic, homeless and addicted to heroin.
Faithfull was noted for her distinctive voice; her melodic and high-registered vocals prevailed during her 1960s career, but these were altered by severe laryngitis coupled with persistent drug abuse during the 1970s, which left her voice permanently raspy, cracked and lower in pitch. This new sound was praised as "whisky soaked" by some critics and seen as having helped to capture the raw emotions expressed in Faithfull's music.
After a long commercial absence, Faithfull made a comeback with the 1979 release of her critically acclaimed seventh studio album Broken English. The album was a commercial success and marked a resurgence of her musical career. Broken English earned Faithfull a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance and is often regarded as her "definitive recording". She followed this with a series of studio albums, including Dangerous Acquaintances (1981), A Child's Adventure (1983) and Strange Weather (1987). Faithfull wrote three books about her life: Faithfull: An Autobiography (1994), Memories, Dreams & Reflections (2007) and Marianne Faithfull: A Life on Record (2014).
Faithfull received the World Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2009 Women's World Awards, and in 2011 she was made a Commandeur of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the government of France.
God bless, great artist, she lived here in Ireland near my town for a while and was very popular
She was truly unique and she delivered great albums until the end. "Negative Capability" is an absolute masterpiece, filled with so so much sadness and such beauty. RIP my darling.
R.I.P Marianne I loved you and I’m only 23 😢

Broken English one of my fave albums
RIP Marianne
Sad. With "Negative Capability" she had a very gripping, intense late album.
"The Ballad of Lucy Jordan" was also a very big hit in Austria, peaking at number 2 on the charts, legendary hit song.
RIP 🙏❣️🥀
I miss you so much 😭
Will never be forgotten ❤
Appeared on Top of the Pops when a teenager. Singing as Tears go By. Never an Icon. A 60s entertainer. Her legend has certainty grown in the telling. We saw her as a bit of a rebellious wannabe not a hit singer. Found her niche in later years. UK. 84
May Her Soul Rest In Heaven
