Bacharach composed this song as an instrumental for Stan Getz' 1966 album featuring Bacharach and David melodies. Then, in '67 David wrote the lyrics and Dusty sang the song for the movie Casino Royale. Hers is the original vocal version, and Dusty sang in a sensual mood that perfectly fit the slow, sultry bossa nova beat.
Dusty is my VERY FAVORITE female "British Invasion" singer. I have every song she has ever done. Try "YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY YOU LOVE ME" th-cam.com/video/Wdtqk2tKixo/w-d-xo.html I LOVE "I ONLY WANT TO BE WITH YOU" which was her FIRST BIG HIT in the USA ... ... th-cam.com/video/5RhsUupVRiY/w-d-xo.html Her hair was always amazing, and I used to wonder how anyone could have that much hair! I began to think that they might be wigs. When I read her biography, it confirmed what I thought. Back in the '60s she DID wear wigs during any performances. I just LOVE her voice and how she moved her hands and arms when she sang, She had her OWN style. The Hair, the heavy black eyeshadow were also part of her "trademark look" CILLA BLACK is ANOTHER British Invasion singer that is fantastic, managed by Brian Epstein (the Beatles' manager) and she is from Liverpool.
This is my favourite Dusty song controlled, restrained but producing very sensual music. In a interview about Dusty and the song, Bacharach said that, 'Dusty breathes heat' in to it. RIP
@@AnthonyWard-g9r Excellent choice! Carol King is another one of my favourites, cool and classy, and I love to listen to 'Tapestry' to create that very special musical mood. Two very wonderful musicians! 😊
Dusty Springfield was part of the British Invasion of the 1960s, and just a fantastic artist. Here's a list of her biggest hits: - 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) - Son of a Preacher Man (1968) Honestly, if I were going to recommend just one, I'd point you to "Son of a Preacher Man." But they're all good. Oh, and you wondered aloud if her version of "The Look of Love" was the original. I think not. The Burt Bacharach composition first climbed the pop charts a year earlier than the Dusty Springfield version was released, in 1966, by Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66. The song has been covered by a seemingly countless number of A-list recording artists. But I've always favored the one by Dusty.
I'm with ya...very airy and sultry...gonna go check out other version...I think that's the one know better....update lol...nope it's the Dionne Warwick version I know
Dusty, a legend.
The one that always got me by Dusty was "The Windmills of Your Mind" ... Beautiful ❤
Dusty is a legend. "Son of a Preacher Man" is a must do.
The epitome of 60’s steamy hot.
100 percent life long Dusty promoter

An underrated track of hers is "All Cried Out." It's a jam. A moderate hit when it came out mlargely forgotten today! I think you'll like it.

Dionne Warwick was the one who first sang this song among others.

I think you'd appreciate Cilla Black singing ' anyone who had a heart' live
You're joking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cilla was a horrendous singer
Honestly I didn’t like her that much but this performance was butter
