Don't forget Silver Threads and Golden Needles with The Springfields.
Dusty was British. Blue eyed soul. Dusty in Memphis is one of the great albums
Dusty was an Irish girl who grew up in England. When her first single hit the charts in 1963 she made the world sit up and listen. She also proved once and for all that white girls got soul. RIP Ms. Dusty.
Dusty Springfield is known as The Queen of Blue-eyed Soul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Karen Carpenter, Barbra Streisand, and Dusty Springfield are the best female voices of the 20th century.
Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien, aka 'Dusty Springfield' was born in London (England), may she R.I.P. She had a boat-load of hits in the sixties - SON OF A PREACHER MAN (1968) is my favorite. She made a comeback in the eighties with Pet Shop Boys singing WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS?(1987). You will LOVE both of those songs.
You guy's couldn't have picked a better singer. Once you hear all of her hit songs you'll find that she was one of the best female singer's ever. Here is a whole catalog of her best songs, which are many: 1) I Only Want To Be With You 2) Stay Awhile 3) Wishin' And Hopin' 4) Anyone Who Had A Heart 5) You Don't Own Me 6) I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself 7) The Corrupt Ones 8) The Sweet Ride 9) What Have I Done To Deserve This (Duet w/The Pet Shop Boys) 10) Son Of A Preacher Man 11) Nothing Has Been Proved (This song is from the movie "Scandal" and written by The Pet Shop Boys) 12) Arrested By You 13) In Private 14) Reputation. Enjoy BB, you won't be disappointed!
It was Italian. Dusty heard it, loved it, and bought it. She wrote the English lyrics herself.
Goosebumps every time this lady sings! She is amazing.
She was the best British female solo artist from the 60’s to the 80’s. So many great songs. Try her Duet with the Pet Shop Boys called What Have I Done to Deserve This.
My very favorite song by Dusty. She was born in London and ''Dusty Springfield'' was a stage name. Her real name was Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien. One of the greatest voices EVER. Thanxx for the reaction to this tune.
My favorite song by her! She had a lot of hits in the sixties and seventies! Fabulous voice and as a fourteen year old guy, I was immediately in love with her when this was released in '64!

Just a bit of trivia! Dusty lived on my Police Beat many years ago, and she lived only a few doors away from another 60's female pop singer, Sandie Shaw. There is a Memorial stone dedicated to Dusty at St Mary's Churchyard, Henley-on-Thames - Oxfordshire, a town local to me. Her ashes were scattered in Henley and in Ireland at the Cliffs of Moher.
Dusty Springfield [Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien] was a prolific English performer in the mid to late 1960 and during the 1960s she ranked among the most successful British female performers on both sides of the Atlantic. However from this peak she faded largely into obscurity although she was still an icon of the ‘swinging sixties’ in the U.K. In the late 1080s she made a mini renaissance with the Pet Shop Boy “What Have I Done To Deserve This”.
Dusty fans idolized her. She was like England's ambassador in the 60s.
An incredible break-up song of unnrequited love. Dusty Springfield - the No 1 best female British singer of the 1960s without a doubt. She was way ahead of her time.

Unfrequented Love is so cruel
"Wishin' & Hopin'"
hello this song leaves me tearful guys brilliant song great track brilliant
Such a soulful, haunting and utterly captivating. She had such control and range. Good reaction and technical review, guys!
The Sirius 60s channel just did a listener voted poll of the top 50 female singers of the 1960s. Dusty was voted number 1.
Dusty performed with her brother Tom as the Springfields. I just learned this yesterday and that after they went their own ways he wrote "I'll Never Find Another You" for The Seekers, which reached No. 1 in the United Kingdom in 1965. It received a 1967 US revival as a country music No.1 by Sonny James.
So many great songs. Goin’ Back my fave.
'Dusty' was a nickname she acquired in her childhood when she would play with her brother and his friends. They apparently called her Dusty because she would get happily get 'dusty' playing their games! This was her only UK no.1 hit, the words written in a hurry because they had to record it in short time. 'Son of a Preacher Man' is perhaps her other best known recording, that I would recommend. Her real name was Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brian!
Dusty was amazing and one of a great crop of female artists from the UK in the early to mid sixties Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Petula Clark and Shirley Bassey. The other great voice is Judith Durham of the group The Seekers, though Australian they came to the UK and had a string of UK chart hits. Great songs to check out Cilla's 'Your My World' (number one the day i was born) and Shirleys This Is My Life, Petula 'Downtown', Sandie 'Long Live Love and The Seekers 'The Carnival Is Over'
Dusty was a great r n b soul singer as well as the dramatic ballads. She recorded a great album in Memphis. The biggest hit from that was Son of a Preacher Man which you must hear. She is sadly missed and died far to young
Dusty Springfield was born in Ireland, raised in Britain, and in her heart a blue-eyed soul singer. She also was known for Franch chanson songs like this that were popular in the 60s. Her classis album was called Dusty in Memphis. Several great hits including "The Look of Love", "Son of a Preacher Man", "Wishin' and Hopin'", "I Only Wanna Be With You". She also did a very 80s song with the Pet Shop Boys, "What Have I Done to Deserve This".
Wishin and Hopin is another great song. You may recognize it from a pretty famous movie.
This is good but "I Only Want To Be With You" is her masterpiece.
In my opinion one of the perfect pop sings ever recorded
absolutletly beautiful
You have just heard one of the most influential singers of the last 50 years.Dusty started as a folk singer then transitioned into a single pop singer around 1963( I OnlyWant To Be With You was a Top 10 hit) She became a fixture on variety shows in England and America in the 1960’s and was being thought of as a singer that the parents liked. That changed when Dusty recorded Dusty in Memphis. She merged her stylish voice with Memphis Blues and the Delta soul sounds. This combo was a revelation and this with her look made her a symbol. Female singers that were popular were either counter culture hippie chicks( Janis Joplin) or fashion models( Diana Ross) Dusty was an approachable stylish modern woman. She had the look of a young baby boomer confident woman. Her look and sound paved the way for the modern female pop singer. After you become familiar with Dusty you will hear her voice in many and this includes recent singers like Amy Winehouse. Dusty in Memphis is almost always included in every Top 100 lists.The word you used”!polished” was on the mark,. Thank you for another entertaining reaction. Great and entertaining channel
Best female soul voice of all time.
her voice is nothing short of liquid gold
The Look of Love is her best performance. The rest of the suggestions are very good as well.

The live TV version is iconic!
Please more Dusty Springfield with her best hits including "Wishin' and Hopin'", "The Look of Love" and "The Windmills of Your Mind". Thank You so much.
Congratulations! You just experienced one of the UK's foremost female vocalists. She was very influenced by US soul and became friends with Aretha Franklin and Martha Reeve. She was instrumental in bringing many soul acts from Atlantic/Stax/Motown to the UK. Worth checking out 'In The Middle of Nowhere', 'If You Go Away', and 'The Look of Love' from the 60s. And she reappeared in the late 80s singing with the Pet Shop Boys - try 'In Private'.
Her brother wrote songs for The Seekers. She started outcwith her brothers. Called The Springfields.
Dusty was one of the best female voices of all time.Incredible that you have not heard of her? This is an Italian song by Pino Dinaggio...He sang it in the San remo festival of 1965 dusty was in the audience and the rest is history. P.S. watch her live version of it!

So many memorable hits of the sixties female singers are based on undeservedly lesser known Italian songs Cilla Black with Your My World was another I learnt about recently. Even Frank Sinatra and My Way was a translation re interpretation.

She was hesitant to perform live, and very shy. All the guys so in love with her

Dusty was fantastic!
Dusty Springfield has an extensive catalogue, some of her tracks which I recommend are: "Son of a Preacher Man", "I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten", "Wishin' and Hopin'", "Spooky", "I Only Want to Be With You", "If You Go Away", "The Look of Love", "You Don't Own Me", "I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself", "Little By Little", "Am I the Same Girl", "Just a Little Lovin'", "Goin' Back", "In the Middle of Nowhere", "Nothing Has Been Proved" with 'The Pet Shop Boys', "What Have I Done to Deserve This?" with 'The Pet Shop Boys'. There are many more but these are great ones to continue with.

Another great English female singer from the sixties is Petula Clark. Her songs may sound familiar to you as she had nine US top twenty hits mid sixties. “Downtown” “Don’t sleep in the subway” are good starting point.
THE LOOK OF LOVE!
Son of a Preacher Man is her classic work. Blue Eyed British Soul recorded in Memphis. Its the song that put her on the map.
I was born in '62 so very young when this was released, and yet I can't hear this without feeling somehow transported back to the 60's.
Mary O Brian was part of a popular British group named"The Springfields" with her brother who gave her the nickname "Dusty" when they were kids ~ when the group broke up ~ she adopted the group name for a solo career & the nickname for her first name ~ she became the leading British female singer at the height of the British Invasion
There is no category you can put Dusty into. She is her own category. First time I heard "I Only Want To Be With You" she owned me. 🥰I have a lot of her stuff. She sings in French too.
She was so good Berry Gordon called her over the Motown studios and recorded her doing a complete Motown album. Dusty was a unique blue eyed soul singer. Very classy

This incredibly talented woman was considered to be the first white female soul singer. The artists that she enjoyed listening to were many of the black artists of the 60s. Dusty had SOUL. One of her last before she departed was a song called "What have I done to deserve this" with the Pet Shop boys. A wonderful dance song. Really one of the best. Sam, your instant reaction was right on the money. "Soulful sound". Very nice....You guys are the best. Keep up the good reactions.
I loooooove this song with this English singer!!!!!!
The "British Invasion" of the 60's is usually remembered for the bands of the time, like the Beatles and Stones. But included in this invasion was some wonderful female singers, led by the great Dusty Springfield. Anything you listen to of hers will be great, also listen to Petula Clark, Sandie Shaw, Marianne Faithful, Lulu and Others from the same time period.
Dusty was one of the best female singers of the 1960s, never made a bad record and could sing as well live as she did in the studio
The last “believe me” gets me every time . Superb . I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten is also on a par with this track IMO
Son of a preacher man is brilliant dusty Springfield song
This song sounds something out of a James Bond movie
She was originally in a folk group called The Springfields before going solo.
Dusty was a pioneer in many ways , true blue eyed soul. She brought many Motown artists to the UK in the 60s citing them as her influences . At the heart of Apartheid in South Africa she was due to appear in concert,the caveat in her agreement was she insisted on playing to a multi racial audience, when she arrived she discovered that the powers that be would only permit a white only audience , she refused to perform and returned to the UK. She has an awesome back catalogue, my personal favourite is The Look of Love , sexy sensual and so soulful.
Great place to start.
It is the cover of a 1965 Italian song by Pino Donaggio and Vito Pallavicini, titled "Io che non vivo (senza te)" Dusty Springfield's real name was Mary O'Brien, born to Irish parents in London She was given the nickname "Dusty" for playing football with boys in the street and was described as a tomboy. Springfield was raised in a music-loving family. Her father tapped out rhythms on the back of her hand and encouraged her to guess the musical piece. Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien OBE, better known by her stage name Dusty Springfield, was an English singer. With her distinctive mezzo-soprano sound, she was a popular singer of blue-eyed soul, pop and dramatic ballads, with French chanson, country, and jazz in her repertoire. Peace out.
Dusty had so many hits RIP Dusty❤️
She had a lot of great songs.
I agree, Dusty is one of the top 6 or 7 I've ever heard in my long experience.
Dusty first heard this sung by Pino Donnagio, who was also the composer, at the San Remo Song Festival in 1965. She brought it back to the UK and commissioned her friend Vicky Wickham to write the English lyrics. She recorded it in 1966. The original title is "Io che non vivo senza te"
VERY sad that folks these days do not know the classic pop songs. Just that there was a hip hop sample... a stolen section. DELIGHTED that you now recognize the greatness of Dusty. She was rated on a Billboard poll as the second greatest female vocalist of all time, after Aretha Franklin. 100% of her huge catalogue of performances are worth hearing. Thanks for bringing her to a new audience. Don't let her fade away. 😍
There’s so many Dusty classics, Close My Eyes And Count To Ten is my favourite 👍
The Look Of Love is great track from Londoner Dusty born in West Hampstead. It was recorded in London at the old Phillip’s studio. She was nicknamed dusty when a kid because she played football in the street and came home dirty.
Great great singer, numerous classic dramatic hits and one classic album 'Dusty in Memphis'. Apparently she suffered from nerves badly and went to record it at Muscle Shoals but was so intimdated by them they had to record the backing tracks and Dusty went to NYC to sing over them. She had a very difficult time with her sexuality and her private life but made a comeback with the Pet Shop Boys in the 80's and sadly passed in 1999, something of an enigma really she was shy and retiring but hugely respected by everyone.
She sadly passed away from breast cancer in 1999.
I was introduced to music at a very young age, but it still surprises me when I remember lyrics to a song like this that came out when I was 6. Some other songs by Dusty Springfield are "Son of a Preacher Man", "Wishin' and Hopin'", "The Look of Love", and "The Windmills of Your Mind".
This IS the original. Dusty,London born from Irish heritage. What a set of pipes.
grew up in the 60s and Dusty Springfield was to me the best female vocalist
The song I love best if hers is You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me. Another good one is I Only Want To Be With You. I think you would like the first one best. It’s more emotional and shows her voice best. I love your reactions
I fell in love with Dusty 50 odd years ago
Dusty(Mary O'Brien) was one of the greatest singers ever inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Many very good songs. I only Wanna be with you, Son of a Preacher Man, A Brand New Me, Wishing and Hoping, and more. Noted as with Linda Ronstat to do covers as good or better than the original. One Example Anyone who Had a Heart by Dionne Warwick.
She was a little before my time, but I knew her as a voice of voices, truly a great one! 'You Don't Own Me' and 'If You Go Away', also 'Son Of A Preacher Man', and 'I Only Want To Be With You', are some more biggies by her. You are right, she is one of the best female voices I can remember. Thanks for the reaction.

Great comments so far! Son of a Precher Man, The Look of Love...
You should listen to her first band called The Springfields with her brother Tom and their song called ( Island Of Dreams ) from 1965
It is the cover of a 1965 Italian song by Pino Donaggio and Vito Pallavicini, titled "Io che non vivo (senza te)". "Io che non vivo (senza te)" ("I, who can't live (without you)") was introduced at the 15th edition of the Sanremo Festival by Pino Donaggio - who had co-written the song with Vito Pallavicini - and his team partner Jody Miller. The song reached the final at Sanremo and, as recorded by Donaggio, reached No. 1 in Italy in March 1965.
She was Mary O'Brien and sang in a trio The Lana Sisters in 1960 but left them to joined her brother Dion O'Brien and Tim Feild, who had been working as a duo and they became the folk band The Springfields,she later went solo as Dusty Springfield and never looked back,probably one of the best UK female singer ever,there are lots of UK female stars from the 60's that are awesome,check out Helen Shapiro,she was 15 and still at school when she released her debut single ''Don't Treat Me Like A Child''another enjoyable video guys
You just have to hear a couple notes and you know it's Dusty. She was so incredibly talented. You won't be sorry if you start digging into her catalogue. Take a listen to "The Look of Love", "Just a Little Lovin'", "Son of a Preacher Man", "Spooky", "I Only Want to Be With You", for starters. For another song in this style, you might like, "All I See is You".
Great one today guy,s RIP Dusty ❤
Don't get mad -- but the live performances give you much more.
