The kicker is SHE'S BRITISH!!! If you watch any of her interviews, you'd hear the accent. Absolutely amazing...
She’s kind of the original Adele.
She was Australian
@@laurievoss285 She was born in London.
Maybe have it confused with Rick Springfield ? He’s Australian
British with a beautiful, soft, soulful Southern accent. Not sure how that even happens, but Dusty was amazing.
I have always loved this woman’s voice. So naturally sultry...
Dusty Springfield was a powerful singer. She had a beautiful voice
Dusty has one of the most soulful and sultry voices ever,
Dusty had SOUL, one of the finest British female singers ever.
Ah, the White Queen of Soul. Such a great singer and much missed.
Her real name was Mary O’Brien. This was recorded with the Muscle Shoals people that Aretha Franklin worked with. The whole Album “Dusty in Memphis” is great.
THEM Cats rocked
The Swampers(that house band) JUST ROCK
“SHE SOUND LIKE ONE OF THE AUNTIES”...I died laughing nearly!! ☠️☠️☠️
One of the greatest blues/jazz singers, ever
Oh yes Dusty had a lot of soul. ♥️
Dusty taught me the meaning of 'sultry' before I ever heard the word!
You really would enjoy Dusty's version of "You Don't Own Me". It was released in 1964.
this is a beautiful song!!!!!
Yeah this is like a song that I can relate to cuz it was made the year I was born and I appreciate it even more at 57
In interviews, Elton John always mentions Dusty Springfield as one of his favorite singers when he was a teen.
Oh my, every time I hear this song I think back to 1976 and our Pastor's son. The best kisser in the history of kissers.
She did alot in terms of being The first Blue Eyed Soul Singer in Pop. To many she kicked the door open for alot of Blue Eyed Soul Singers in Europe. Amy Winehouse (RIP), Duffy, Natasha Bedingfield, Adele, Ruthanne and Nadine Coyle of Girls Aloud. She created controversy when she refused to play a Segregated Audience in South Africa and then she also went to The BBC (British Broadcasting Company) to get them to do a Special called Ready Steady Go: The Sounds Of Motown. She did the first Interracial Duet with Martha & The Vandellas with Wishin' & Hopin'. One of her associates was Patricia Cole Arnold aka PP Arnold whose first big break was as an Ikette.
Not just soul and pop but rap as well. She was thuglife before thugs were even born.
I always listen to this song thinking I was listening to a black American girl from the 60s. Just found out 2 nights ago that she was white British girl. WOW!!!
Dusty had so much soul.
The voice of an angel..
Dusty is my FAVORITE female singer that was part of the "BRITISH INVASION" that started after the Beatles hit the US for the first time. I have all her albums that she ever recorded LOVE her voice, her style, she was SO unique. She has a lot of songs that will just make you cry. One of my favorites of hers is "I ONLY WANT TO BE WITH YOU," one of her first hits in the U.S. in 1964, She also performed on the Ed Sullivan Show. Beautiful lady, who sadly passed away a few years ago. Check out more of her songs and also the one she did with the PET SHOP BOYS "What Have I Done to Deserve This,"
From Dusty in Memphis album, one of my top ten fav albums of all time of any genre. It is fabulous!
Dusty Springfield was a hit in Europe, but her brother was a songwriter and he made this song. It went to No.1 on the hit parade in the UK and the USA. When she toured the US they thought she was a Southern Black Girl, because they had heard her on the radio. A White Girl from England never entered their mind. Full of Gospel and Soul.
Dusty Springfield was an English pop music singer who was heavily influenced by American r&b and Motown music. Her album 'Dusty in Memphis' is one of my favorites of all time. She had a hit comeback in the 1980s with the group the Pet Shop Boys. They did some collaborations, including the song 'What Have I Done to Deserve This? It's one of my favorite songs of the 80s and Dusty Springfield's voice adds a soulful touch. She had a lot of popular songs in the 1960s and 1970s, as well.
This makes sense now, knowing she was Influenced by RnB and Motown because her sound is so similar...in fact that I figure this was a black singer. Mind is blown!! Omg this girl can sing!! Love the classics of back during this era!
What? With PSB? What’s it called?
@@chrisrandall2710 It's the album 'Reputation' (1990). Apparently they only produced the B side of the album. Here is the video for the title track: th-cam.com/video/I_r7BiQZlIE/w-d-xo.html
@@sarastromseth-troy3323 thx ❤️🇨🇦🤓
Hard to believe Dusty started out a a member of a 3 piece folk singing group called the Springfields.
She sang a Fantastic song called ,' I only want to be with You ,' covered by The Bay City Rollers .
Check out the cover by The Tourists. Annie Lennox first band.
Yep what he said 💁🏻♀️ the Tourists excellent cover👗
Check out Dusty's "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me", "Fancy", and "I Only Want To Be With You"
still my favorite, you don't have to say you love me.
Growing up, the children of preachers, etc. were some of the wildest kids in school.
She was a huge Tamla Motown fan and was influential in introducing TM artists to UK audiences. She was deported from South Africa for playing to a non segregated audience, anti racist in actions as well as words. I believe she also played a part in getting Led Zeppelin signed to Atlantic Records (her american label at the time) on the basis that she knew John Paul Jones from him working as a session musician for her, maybe apocryphal but I believe it, She was just one of the best.
True...
All true!
Dusty is part of Blue-Eyed Soul singer from England came with a mezzo-soprano sound others hits " A Brand New Me" "The Windmills of Your Mind" (4/16/1939-3/2/1999)
Dusty is an amazing pioneer for female artists. She some times goes forgotten and never heard but she is a talent to be reckoned with in the day.
Finally, no one ever covers Dusty's great hits thank you. X
When I was a kid, I assumed this was a southern black woman who was singing based on the soul in her voice. Was pretty shocked to find out she was a white woman from Hampstead, England. Such a wonderful voice.
Not many people know that Dusty wasn't English, she was Irish. In fact her real name was Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien and both of her parents were of Irish descent. She was influenced by R&B and Motown but she was versatile enough to perform ballads, French chanson, country and jazz as well. She's one of the most notorious artists of the British Invasion in the mid-60's.
Born in England so English...
@@ticketyboo2456irish but live in england
RIP, Dusty. Recently passed. Truly a talented lady. 👏
1999
The album Dusty in Memphis is superb !
I think "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" is her finest.
Dusty had lots of hits in 60s ,great soulful voice.
Dusty had the soul.
You gotta watch those preacher's sons. Always one of my favorite songs.
Dusty had loads of hits in 60,70 and 80 plenty of great songs to choose from.
Dusty loved Soul Music bringing Motown artists to England mid-sixties for her spectacular TV series, her great R&B covers classic authentic versions fiery and soulful DVD of series amazing Madeline Bell & Lesley Duncan great background vocals a treasure of phenomenal performances...check out "What's It Gonna Be" hot Northern Soul Classic plus "Brand New Me" great Philly Soul album produced by Gamble/Huff, Dusty left us with a treasure of great albums filled with incredible performances timeless classics...
Just to say that Dusty brought black music to the UK such as James Brown - I remember, we couldn't get enough.
She was a pop-folk singer influenced by country music- went to Nashville to record, turned the dial on her radio and heard soul music. Her next tour in Europe had US soul artists as support- introducing the UK pop audience to soul music. She worked small halls to black audiences in the US to get the music right. She was much loved by the soul divas- she got them on to her TV show in England- making them household names in the UK over night. She was of Irish stock.
Yes, sounds like one of the aunties! I think she was the best singer ever!
Awesome reactions!
I again have to say how much I love watching your reactions and I love watching people from all genres discovering new genres of music I believe black and white were so much alike there's that soul there's that chemistry there's a lot of things that are just so together really music has no color. Dusty Springfield English when she died she passed away in Australia and she was also a gay woman so there is so much to be gleaned from all of music, I think music brings people together God bless you all you guys are awesome
Gorgeous song and wonderful performance!
Great reaction guys, and this artist is one of my favorites, for this song, along with, Joss Stone, and of course Janis Joplin ❣
After Gladys Knight covered it, Dusty said that she could never sing it the way she used to again. Dusty sang with Jimmy Hendrix too. Great reactions
If they ever make a movie about Dusty Springfield's life, there's only one person that can play her: Adele.
You be truthin' right there, sure 'nough! 😁
Dusty was so beautiful & soulful.
Gotta check out the pet shop boys song "what have I done to deserve this" featuring Dusty springfield...... awesome 80's song✌️
I remember hearing this as a kid in the 70s before you saw the artist on video or TV like you do now. I just always pictured Dusty as a black woman in my minds eye and was really surprised when I saw her on TV.
She was one of a kind. No one sang like her. She died too soon. She is the sister of the composer of the Seekers big hit, I Know I'll Never Find Another You. Dusty's song, I Only Want To Be With You is my favorite. She is soul. Pure soul.
Dusty had so many hits in the sixties. I loved her. Still do. Just a wonderful talent and that voice, oh my.
Ever since 1994 I can’t hear this song without thinking of Mia Wallace (Uma Thurman) chilling out at home in Pulp Fiction.
The greatest soul singer to come out of England - love a bit of dusty ❤
I lurv Dusty. Listened to her a lot over many years. :) Great reaction Mel!
Dusty Springfield. The greatest British female singer, who loved soul music and was the consummate professional - so many amazing songs she peformed through the 1960s into the 70s, and then returning in the 1980s. Sadly she passed in the 1990s from cancer.
Dusty In Memphis is one of the to 50 albums of all time. She was the best. Check her out with Martha and the Vandellas. They were best friends. Dusty was kicked it of South Africa because she wouldn’t allow segregated concerts.
Gotta love her dance moves!
Love watching your blatantly honest reactions. Especially when the surprise is written in your eyes lol
Dusty Springfield is in the rock and roll hall of fame. right next to Aretha Franklin on a plaque on the wall. Another great song I only wanna be with you. FYI there’s a documentary on what she did in South Africa not performing because blacks were not allowed to be in her show worked with Barry Gordy at Motown
Great reaction! Gotta check out Dusty Springfield's cover of the Van Morrison classic - Tupelo Honey.
Dusty was wonderful!!!!! You absolutely have to hear Joss Stone’s version of this song!! She also has a very soulful bluesy jazzy voice
I'd heard this amazing song my entire life and, until I bought her CD and saw her picture when I was in college, I would have SWORN she was black from her soulful voice. Just one of those situations where you have an image from voice alone, then see reality and it flips your wig. Such a great song and amazing singer.
look at yall, all smiley and what not! So awsome. Life w/ good music is a life worth living!
Dusty Springfield is one of my favorite singers, dancers, writers, guitar players. Ect.. She even played with JIMMY HENDRIX He loved her!
Thank you for bringing Dusty to the arena. Her voice was always special to me. She had a little jazz snap in her vocals which separated her from her counterparts.
Dusty has one of the best all time voices. You should check out, The Look Of Love and You Don't Have to Say You Love Me. Aretha Franklin was offered this song first but turned it down because she was the daughter of a preacher man and thought it was disrespectful offering it to her to sing. ALTHOUGH later she changed her mind and covered it later.
Her voice is🔥♥️
According to one biography of Dusty Springfield, around the time that this song was a radio hit she was getting on an elevator and Aretha Franklin got on at the same time, took one look at her and went, “Guuuuuuuuuuurl!” Highest praise ever.
Good ol' blue-eyed soul. Dusty and The Righteous Brothers were the top purveyors of that limited but wonderful subgenre.
Love your reaction guys. Dusty was a great voice and incredible live stage performer. She would be big today if alive.
Check out Dusty's "Stay A While" ... another blockbuster hit.
The Look of Love-one of the sexiest songs ever.
Blue eyed soul, to the max
Bring back a lot of memories my dad was a preacher and when mom and dad went to visit people I took a few girls walking
Oh yeah!!! Awesome song and love Dusty Springfield’s voice!!!
Try Dusty singing "I only want to be with you"
I'm a BIIIIIG fan of Dusty!!!! My favorite song by her is "Brand New Me."
Dusty Springfield. A truly wonderful artist with a spectacular voice. She recorded her vocals in the halls of the recording studios as she found the studio sound dead. Got the echo reverb back in the hall. Dusty had a great ear and learned from American Black artists in the 1960s. She showed great respect for these artists. Check out her singing with Martha Reeves, my favorite R&B singer. RIP Dusty. You still have millions of fans. PS Love the maxi gown. Dusty could sure move in that dress. A soul goddess with magnificent pipes.
One of the most soulful of all time.
Dusty is one of my favorites she has a smoooth coool voice and lots and lots of jams.Like wishin and hopin ,I only want to be with you,The look of love,How can I be sure,You D'ont have to say you love me,Little by Little. and many more.
Dusty came to the USA an made it big like jimi went to England an made it big an came back.
I love this song!!
I have always this song by Dusty Springfield. A close remake of this is by Joss Stone who performed it on some British show (honors or awards etc.)
Definition of Blue Eyed Soul.
Love this song
My mom was always told she looked like Dusty back in the 60’s and 70’s...this chick rocks..just
like my mom! 😉
Up next:
Dusty's The Look of Love
One sultry voice!!
Dusty Springfield, my favorite vocalist of all time. Try "I Only Wanna be with You" or "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" for some more blue-eyed soul!
There we go again..60's great tunes just shocking today's youth..luv it..yuk..yuk..Dusty sang only for 3 years but her music lives on and on. Hope you listen to more of her tunes..great lady!!
From her legendary Album Dusty in Memphis
Dusty had her first US hit in her family folk group The Springfields with a version of Roy Clark's "Silver Threads And Golden Needles".
In July 1962 in the USA.
Great Song ,I love Dusty
Gotta play some Jackie De Shannon too! "What the World Needs Now is Love."
Wow, I always thought this voice was that of a black woman. That's crazy... Amazing song.
I love this song 💕❤
This song has been digitally remastered to make it sound good as knew, you can really appreciate her voice even more with the remastered version.
My Mother married the son of a Preacher Man (My Father) 😊. Love this song! What to be even more shocked? Dusty is from LONDON, and smooth as hell ❤️
Yes, from Ealing I believe.
Why shocked? Britain has produced phenomenal amazing musical talent. You would be shocked I’m sure by many American musicians who have been heavily influenced by the UK and vice versa.
@@farrahwalker6222 Oh, I agree! Think new listeners would be shocked because she sings with a bluesy R&B style, which is American
Pulp fiction, first time I heard this and loved it.
One of Britain's finest
English singers like Dusty and Tom Jones had that "soul" sound. She had a powerful voice no matter what kind of song she did. She grew on me and became my favorite British female singer. Back in the day [they label us "Old School" - what's that mean? I'm still going to school? lol] many in my generation didn't care what your ethnicity was...we just enjoyed the music, [we all liked the Supremes, the Beatles, etc] while others....eh....there wasn't all this separatism like today with 8,000 channels specializing, putting people in categories...labeled boxes musically...AM radio generally played all that was available, [FM was just getting started, in stereo] if they weren't owned by some specialized paranoid business people....Motown, British artists, Beach boys, some country crossover songs, and in hindsight, some really bad stuff too lol [Surfin' Bird?-hahaha] ...it certainly wasn't a perfect world but trying to get better....but it was not so separated musically like today...corporate controlled radio networks with talking heads galore spewing hate 24/7.......we didn't have that, the FCC had regulations that helped prevent that....the music was the thing....country music liked to separate itself from those stations at the time though...and some "adult" with the Sinatra stuff... today it's all divide and conquer rather than let's get together, even musically...
AGREE WITH YOU 100% and this is coming from a woman who grew up listening to the radio in the '50s as a child and the '60s as a teen, back when music wasn't divided and put into boxes like you said. I MISS those times and the music we heard in those days. Today can't compare with radio at that time
Tom Jones English? Wash your mouth out....
Tom Jones is Welsh
