Dusty had a great voice. "The Look of Love" "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me" "I Only Want To Be With You"
I love " brand new me"
Yes! Great song choices.
Yes to both songs mentioned above ❤
...without looking
did she sing Windmills of your mind?...
Yes she did.
Dusty Springfield was in fact British too, British soul in a blonde bouffant!
Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien. A lot of Irish in there too.
Northern Ireland is British! 😊
@@daviddeath6029 Not for long 🤣 Most of Britain's towns and cities are now derelict sh1tholes. Your glory days are a distant memory.
Her parents moved to London and were both very much Irish, however, Dusty was born in London and lived her life as a British woman speaking with an English accent. Yes, she was Irish by heritage but she was English by nationality.@@seansersmylie
@@daleb1279Her father was raised in British India (as it was known at the time), so probably not that many Irish influences in his life beyond his name.
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.
No she was born in England
Dusty is credited with bringing female Motown singers to England and introducing the music to Europe.
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.
The documentary is on YT When Motown came to England male singers too
@@laminage Nadine Coyle? 😬 (Who is Irish btw) England, Scotland and “Britian”? England Scotland and Wales make up Britain. I’ve never heard of Ruthanne but she is Irish too.
YES! The Supremes said how they were in their third and ending tour then Dusty quickly went to work and Motown was featured! Fret but old video on YT and I’m from way back then and we had the British Invasion while they had the Motown invasion.
@nicolad8822 she was born in England of Irish heritage makes her British
Aretha loved Dusty's version of this song. Right after its release, they ran into each other on an elevator. Aretha put her hand on Dusty's shoulder & just said "Girl...", in that special admiring way.
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.

@@jp3813 Aretha had first option, but passed on it. Dusty made it a hit, and Aretha covered it a year later, with the same backup singers. 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.
Erm what? Dusty released the song in 1968. Aretha covered it in 1970. !!!
It was written for Aretha, who turned it down. 😬😁. That's ok tho. No one did it like Dusty. No one
Has there ever been an academic study why lesbians and gays sing so well compared to the general public?
I'm 76 years old. this was my generation. you are so cute watching this.
The fabulous Dusty Springfield.Recognised as one of Britain's greatest ever female singers.
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 love her version of "Spooky".
Dusty was known as The White Soul Sister. On the radio she sounded soul sister, and she shocked us all the first time we saw this blond white girl take the stage and sing soul.
What a class act this woman was
Absolutely!
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 had tremendous talent, a naturally pure and spectacular voice.
Britt.... I'm an old, white girl at 55 , and you are an awesome, beautiful young woman with great taste and a great personality. I enjoy watching your videos and I'll give you a couple more to look up. Kenny loggins, This is it.
Lulu, To sir with love
Eagles, One of these nights
Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody
✌️
You have a great taste in music!!!
You're not old!!
@@marleneobstnash5517 😉
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"
Dusty was an amazing talent. Gorgeous crystal clear voice and beautiful to watch. She died too young. Her ashes were scattered in the sea off County Clare in the west of Ireland. For many years after a dolphin would spend the summer months in the same cove. The locals called the Dolphin 'Dusty' of course. True story.
Dusty once lived on my Police beat, there is a memorial to her in the churchyard of St. Mary The Virgin Church, Henley-On-Thames, some of her ashes were scattered here.
Dusty was a legend of her time. Check out “I Only Want To Be With You.”
A great piece of pop music is a song Dusty did in the '80s with Pet Shop Boys 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.
I always think this is the 1st of a trilogy of songs that go so well together. 2nd is Cher with "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves, and 3rd "Ode to Billy Joe" by Bobby Gentry.
Hey Now! I'm a PK. I was a teenager when Dusty had her hit with this song. It became my theme song. Britt, you're right. I got away with murder being the preacher's kid!
Dusty was amazing. The horns on this song were killer too.
Dusty was one of a kind. She had a beautiful voice. Check out "You don't have to say you love me" and "The look of love."
I dig Dusty's version of _The Windmills of your Mind_ , written by a hip, swingin' french dude.
Her voice is butter....does no wrong as a singer.....
Probably favorite female UK singer til I hear Joss Stone.....love her voice....
I grew up on this music....thanks Dusty . RIP !
Good reaction. You should also listen to Dusty singing 'The Look of Love'. Big hit at the time.
The version from the Dusty! album is the one.
one of the better singers to come out of England. She was so talented.
Dusty was born Mary O'Brien in West Hampstead, London, but somehow had a voice that was pure sweet Southern Soul. Amazing.
Makes me happy to see someone young getting hooked on one of he old classics. Dusty had a magnificent voice - hope you react to some more of her performances.
British soul at it's best!
given that Dusty is the only British thinhg on it
@@keithwarrington2430 Dusty's parents were Irish.
Dusty had one of the all time greatest voices.
Dusty was top of the charts and a big time party girl. She died of breast cancer at just 59 years old.
Dusty (Mary) Springfield had a brother named Tom, who was a song-writer. Tom wrote some of the greatest hits by the Seekers....Georgy Girl, I'll Never Find Another You, etc--- earning him the unofficial title of the "fifth Seeker".
Queen of Blue Eyed Soul
Written by the great Bobbie Gentry who wrote and sang “Ode to Billie Joe” and “Fancy” which is sung to perfection by Reba McIntyre. ❤
no offense, but according to few places online this song was written by John Hurley and Ronnie Wilkins
I think they stold it from her if u can believe the internet.
Britt !!!!!!! Heart is coming to Atlanta Friday May 10th. You totally need to see them live. They are nothing short of amazing.
This might be their last tour. Go see them!!!
There was only one Dusty, when she was gone they broke the mould, there will be no more. Greatly missed.
I love your reaction so much. I can't explain. You go girl!
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.
lol!
Best female singer ever
💛DUSTY💛
You are so right about those PK's.... FACT! You Don't Have To Say You Love Me and I Only Want To Be With You are two more excellent Dusty Springfield songs. But always loved this one best!!!! She was so cool!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As a teenager in the 60s I had such a crush on this woman who was the epitome of “cool” and her sultry voice. Only found out a couple years ago that she was in the closet for decades, as such things were buried deep back then.
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!!!
My favorite song of Dustys is All I See Is You. Song really showcases the power she could unleash.
Very much so! One of my favorites of hers, too.
The whole album Dusty in Memphis is TOP NOTCH.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the way your eyes pop out when you heard her voice. You’re amazing. Love your channel.
Britt, glad you love her dancing as we had so much fun partying and dancing the nights away. The dance that Dusty is doing is called the Boogaloo. I know, crazy name but it was the dance at that time!
Britt, back in the day I believe that hair - do was called The Bubble!! 😂🤣
Dusty was a beautiful woman who had a beautiful voice.
I remember Americans in Berlin, Germany (as Military Allies) - for us they were incredible: Wearing hairdryers while driving big cars with electric windows and eating burgers allday long. I loved Dusty Springfield and they played it often inn AFN-Radio next to Jimi Hendrix, Sonny & Cher and Creedance Clearwater Revival. You are right - she is a mover (beatniks slang, sorry).
This song was also featured in the movie PULP FICTION.
That dance move was the "Boog a loo" ❤ We all did it 😊
Yes Britt... it is a fact. I attended Baylor University (BU) in the early 1960's and Freshman Baptist Preacher's Daughters were always the 'Wild Ones'. For the most part, they were away from home and out from under daddy's thumb for the first time and their actions proved it. Go Bears. Baylor all the way.
I came here to comment something similar. I always took the “son of a preacherman” to be wild & rebellious & that’s how he “reached” her, lol. A little nookie behind the pews! 😜
This song played was played a lot in the fall of '69. Even as a kid, Dusty's rich, soulful voice captured my attention. As I got a little older, I was surprised to learn she was a Brit. I thought she was out of Motown! Looking back, her voice has to be in the top three of the most sensuous, rich voices I've heard. My favorite was "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" which debuted in '66.
Listen to the Look of Love
I married a preacher’s kid. I can testify!
She had a whole host of hit records, but 'Going Back' is the one with the most meaningful lyrics and the one you need to hear.
all time classic! ♥
Dusty has a wonderful songbook of solos, but check out her early days with The Springfields - Island of Dreams and Silver Threads & Golden Needles for starters.
Anything by Dusty is 😎 cool.What a voice.Iconic. Oh how she is missed.
Dusty in Memphis. Classic [Not live} album.
Dusty in Memphis is not a live album. It was recorded at American Sound Studios in Memphis.
@@mph7282 Thank you. I'm getting old. I've no idea who I was thinking about. James Brown at the Apollo? Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison? The Archies at Riverdale High?
“Spooky” is her best song, in my opinion. She’s very soulful
Her version of Bacharach and David's "I just don't know what to do with Myself" is another great one.
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.
Check out Dusty and Tom Jones together! "Baby, Baby, Baby" and other songs. You KNOW you want to. Such cool, fun legends!
Girl Miss Dusty was such a good singer. Her voice shines in this song
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
When this was created 😊 the length of the song was set by the air time allowed by the radio stations as you said 50's & 60's bless her fantastic & much missed UK Singer.RIP Dusty !!
Dusty Springfield is Perfection!
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 saw her at the Grand Ole Opry in 1972. The Rymen Auditorium. I was 16. Awesome memory!
Dusty has a very good voice..
Someone mentioned look of love
which is a favorite song of mine
Sergio Mendez and Brazil 66
do a great job with look of love
Loved your react! And you are spot on....!!!!
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!
Little kid me thought she was a southern black woman like Aretha. 🤣
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.
I think her first hit was "wishin and Hopin (65?), then followed with several hits through the 60's - "the look of love", You don't have to say you love me" (1966), I only sanna be with you (my fav). again - her songs were before auto tune was available. Another fabulous singer in Heaven's Rock & Roll Choir (RIP).
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.
I love Dusty. We lost her too soon. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE look up her duet with DARRYL HALL(who you already love): “Where ever would I be without you” It was one of the last things she did.
One of the best British female singers ever!
For me the best!
Well born there ,but Mary O'Brien very much Irish Ethnicity ☘️🇮🇪
@@ko0974 Who the heck is Mary O’Brian? and what does she have to do with Dusty Springfield??
@@cheryla7480 Mary O'Brien is Dusty Springfield
OK I get it now………and she still was the best in my opinion!
Dusty was one of a kind and I was lucky enough to be a teenager in this era, we had great music didn’t we
We sure did!
Dusty was an English soul singer
I remember this song like yesterday. Dusty was brilliant. Love the chance to watch a pretty awesome onstage performance that you don't see when music was just 'vinyl" Love your reaction to one of British pop legends.
Check out her live performance of "Since I Fell For You"
I remember listening to her on the radio for years as a kid never realizing she was British until I heard her talk on an interview.
Truth about preacher kids!
Fun. I just had the thought if I looked back- to music 70 years before- mah Gawd, it's been that long since Dusty Springfield had that hit? -when I was your age, I'd be listening to the first 1925 broadcast of the Grand Ol' Opry. Good Lawd. Love your studio. I gotta say.
I've always loved this song! And as a PK myself, I can concur every thing you said 😉
Love this song!
Love this song! And you are so right...I dated a preacher's son for a couple of years in high school...cute and TROUBLE!
She actually didnt want to record this at first. Hmmm. She was from England and recorded this in Memphis, my home town. Great song❤
Dusty and Richard Carpenter duet: “Something in Your Eyes” was a hit on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart in 1987.
That was a dance move from the era. The hairstyle was also a trend. A lot of hair pieces. The voice is always what I loved. Whatever she sang, was good. Her songs reflected the soulfulness of her voice.
"You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" really showcases her voice - it's a plaintive, haunting, and absolutely gorgeous song!
Love that very autthentic and energetic reaction.
Today "Son of a Preacher Man" is just a cute diddle ~ but consider just how provocative it was in 1968: Dusty is singing openly about sexuality (even including a bit of cousin kissing "cousin Billy would take me walking"), she is saying the preacher's son is the baddest of the bunch (which would be well-known amongst church going people, just as you also pointed out), but she is also singing about her own sexuality as a young woman ("learning from each other" ~ hence, she is herself no angel) AND she does all of that in the context of religion and Sunday church, even throwing in a bunch of quite ambiguous "oh, lord" (is she praying or... uhm... trying to catch her breath)... it was an outrageous song in its own time ~ but because Dusty delivered it in such sweet and sultry way, she got away with it... also helps that she was a Brit, safely tugged away in England ~ someone actually from Baptist country in the Deep South would probably not have dared record that song (written for Aretha Franklin no less, recorded in Memphis)... art is transformation and provocation is often the most effective tool for transformation 👈😉
KILLER BASS on this song! Love everything about it.
The iconic guitar intro was played by the great Reggie Young! RIP.
If you just discovered Dusty, Britt, you just hit the jackpot. She was the greatest ever. Check her out. 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. You'll fall in love with everything she did!
She remained lifelong friends with Motown’s Martha Reeves.
@@user-ky6vw5up9m Indeed!
You’re right, it should’ve been longer. So that gives you an excuse to listen to it over and over again 😀
I loved this reaction!! Great song, and Dusty was a great artist!
Britt, thank you for all the smiles you have given me, keep up the excellent work.
Another great song of hers is ‘ I count to ten.’
