She had one of those most talented & distinctive voices of all time. A true talent.

Far from madness, as her handling of addiction & her final illness proved, she embodied the intelligence & musical genius that equalled or surpassed the brilliance often found in those who border on it. She definitely possessed & exhibited out of this world magnificence in so many different ways.....simply mind blowing talent, artistry & beauty in every genre.

Back in the early 70s my Gran adored Dusty Springfield and others such as Petula Clark. and as a young 12 year old I wondered what the fuss was all about. Now as a mature man, I know exactly what high quality of artists my Gran appreciated, boy did she have a wonderful taste!

Dusty Springfield. I was a young man listening to her hits of the 60s. She was great! I am sorry she was a troubled woman.

I thought Dusty was beautiful. But beyond that was her amazing talent. It didn't have to be her own song, to sing it well. When she did a cover of a song 🎵 it was as if it belonged to her. That was amazing!!! ❤ miss you Dusty😢.

Just a fabulous talent who didn’t know how good she was a true icon

She kicked the door open for every single Blue Eyed Soul Singer these past 50 something years. Duffy, Amy Winehouse (RIP), Nadine Coyle (Girls Aloud), Lisa Stansfield, Joss Stone and Adele.

I.love those singers 's singing voices a lot ,but I think they were born thanks to talented ladies like ronnie spector,dusty springfield,diana ross,judy driscoll,shirley bassey ecc.

Wonderful, talented lady you leave behind a memory that will not fade with time or. of history itself. You were part of that early 60's scene and managed to stay the years by your perfectionism, professional skill and of course your voice. Brave until the end you will always remain an inspiration to many. Rest in Peace Dear Lady, we treasure your time here on earth with us.

As a PK (Preacher's Kid) my theme song as an awkward teenager was what I always saw as Dusty's signature song; "The only one who could ever move me ....". RIP Dusty Springfield.

Just WOW. Thank you

Nectar, thanx so much or this. I had to have rd some of Dusty music in places in my young life, but we children and thrums teens weren’t allowed radio or tv media in our home. But recently reactors are bringing Dusty back to me. So much of it I know I hadn’t heard tho others I vaguely remember. I just love her hand motions that I didn’t see in rock. It seemed to come from opera or classical music. I just love her.

I wonder how much self analysis Camille Paglia has done on herself...to describe "Dusty" who was really Mary O'brien (Irish) as "an English pop singer puppet?"...even giving judgement on Dusty's singing voice as having a masculine energy/tone to it...or such like....I just welcomed all she gave and thank her for Dusty in Memphis. =

Paglia identifies as trans, so therefore looks for those qualities in others when they're clearly not there. I mean, Dusty absolutely did NOT have a masculine voice. I have no idea who decided Paglia's input would add any substance or quality to this documentary. Total misfire.

You're are off your rocker. She was a homicidal maniac. She tried to kill several people. Including her own spouses and herself. She chased one with a knife screaming I'll kill you and another had to knock her teeth out and knock her out cold just to save her from killing her. She used to stab herself just to see if she was alive. She used to think she was already dead so she'd stab herself and say well I know I'm alive because I can feel the knife. Then confuse to cut and Stab herself. She was nuts. Scary nuts. She once the a TV in a swimming pool. If it didn't come unplugged she would have murdered everyone in the pool.

Well it was the 60's and nothing was more important to that man's world than a woman of skin and bones with enormous breasts. Unfortunately, this demand was way too much for most young women and girls including Dusty. May she continue to rest in peace. Women are so fortunate for all that has changed and still we have blockbuster movies like Marvel's Avengers: End Game with a cast of 20 + men to one woman written in only for sex appeal. What men have not figured out yet is that most women who witness this sexist phenomenon realize they could never measure up to the CGI perfection that they shrink away from wanting sex. It's a lose lose for everyone.
