This song gave Andy a new woman crush - Dusty Springfield | Andy & Alex FIRST TIME REACTION!

[@summertime_blooz]

Dusty gets my vote for all time sexiest female voice. The Look of Love takes the cake.

[@stuarthidalgo1395]

I just wrote that! Totally agree!

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

She was a no-nonsense chick too ... she once punched Elvis Costello in the nose when he disrespected her.

[@richardfairlamb9728]

Totally!

[@bomagosh]

The Look of Love should be next from her, hopefully sooner than two years from now.

[@Jules-um4yy]

Agree on top of being beautiful

[@anita.fringe]

He will melt hearing her version of "The Look of Love."

[@TheCornishCockney]

Much as I loved Dusty,I preferred Gladys Knights version.

[@ramonalfaro3252]

Dusty refused to sing to segregated audiences. Also, During an evacuation they tried to get Dusty to leave the mostly Minority crew behind. She refused to leave until they brought a transport big enough to take her & the whole crew. Genuine Queen!!!

[@ed.z.]

Always loved Dusty Springfield’s voice. Especially, “You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me”.

[@wb2463]

Dusty Springfield, one of the greatest female voices ever! It's always crazy to me how she's singing so softly here but *still* has that rasp and distortion, that's so rare especially for a woman's voice.

[@quagsnake]

So glad you're giving Dusty some love. One of (if not THE) greatest British female singers of all time. The work 'icon' gets thrown around like confetti these days but she truly was an icon.

[@Maydoggie]

Y'all really need to hit The Look Of Love by Dusty next. It's classic.

[@tjj300]

Not rock, but it's fire!

The superior version IMO.

She made a comeback with Pet Shop Boys " What Have I Done to Deserve This".😊

I am 60, and I don't believe I had heard her version before. I wasn't even sure how a woman would pull off the lyrics. WOW. That was 🔥! Damn, thanks for the schoolin', younguns!

[@geoffreycarter2686]

Dusty was gay but, sadly, lived at a time when this could not be admitted. She could have sung the lyrics as written in another age.

[@blitztim6416]

Dusty has some great songs. I always liked 'Wishin' and Hopin' ' This song, Spooky, was a hit for The Classics IV.

[@markthompson7983]

The next Dusty Springfield songs - "The Look of Love" is a two martinis straight up with olives kind of song, as a nightcap after a particularly good date. Followed by "Just a Little Lovin" early in the morning, as the evening stretches into the day.

[@Nimboid-20]

Surely followed by "Breakfast In Bed" ?!

[@gertrudewalker6882]

Love Dusty beautiful voice so many great songs

[@surlechapeau]

A&A, you love her "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" her #1 hit (1966) and “I Only Want to Be with You” her first hit (1963). These songs show her range and power!!!!

"Windmills of my mind" One of her best !!

[@JoeKentMagic]

My all time Favorite Dusty song !

[@michaelbeasley5783]

"You don't have to say you love me." Another side of Dusty. Majestic and moving--there's a BBC (?) live black and white version that is nothing short of awesome.

[@TonyCallaway]

The best version of this song it’s the original by The Classic IV , co- written by one of its members Cobb. So merit to the authors !!

[@lalardh9976]

My Dad LOVED Dusty!! Played her songs all the time. Great memories.

[@glenndespres5317]

The Look of Love is the sound of love with Dusty.

[@fusiliers]

Check out Lulu, a Scottish singer/ actress who was a contemporary of Dusty. I think you guys will really dig "To Sir, With Love"; great song, amazing performance, and really cool production elements. Also, one of the best movie theme songs of all time!

[@strayling1]

Sing softly and carry a big stick? There's so much understated power hidden in her voice.

[@markghughes]

You should hit Dionne Warwick - Walk on By at some point

[@dianegoldeneye7207]

@@markghughes great song. I requested it before. Thanks

[@jamesanderson3386]

Not only should they cover Dionne Warwick's version, but they should look at the differing renderings of the same song from Issac Hayes, Average White Band, and Dianna Krall.

[@simonspeak9288]

@@jamesanderson3386and the Stranglers. Seriously great cover.

[@timmellin2815]

I remember The Classics Four......their cover of this in 1967 was the version that charted. I had not known, until now, that Dusty also had a version. You've got to review her version of The Look of Love.

[@nyrocks5580]

The song was originally an instrumental and recorded that way. The lyrics were added by J.R. Cobb and Buddy Buie from Classics IV who then went on to form Atlanta Rhythm Section and did the song with them as well.

[@Elephant2024-wi2li]

'I Only Want to Be With You' is my favorite Dusty song. She has a really soothing voice.

[@janegl48]

This song made me think of Fever by Peggy Lee. Came out in 1958, but you'd never know it. Talk about a powerful sultry female voice.

[@jimmeltonbradley1497]

Others have said it but "The Look of Love" should definitely be your next Dusty stop.

[@phillipharrison7283]

And her track with the longest name? 'I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself' from around '64. Played heaps on the radio way back when. ✌

[@clemdane]

Please do "The Look of Love" and "I Don't Want to Hear it Anymore" !

[@mattshaw6180]

Thanks for finally hitting this sexy Dusty song, such a great cover! I'm going to echo another comment and call out Sandy Denny and "Who Knows Where the Time Goes": what an amazing voice. She was also the only guest vocalist on a Led Zeppelin LP ("Battle of Evermore"), because they loved her sound!

[@beverlyoyarzun3326]

She also got her own sigil on Led Zeppelin IV- it’s in the liner notes, not on the cover.

[@61hink]

That's a great song. I didn't listen to early Fairport Convention at the time but I was introduced to Sandy's voice when I became a Richard Thompson fan later on. Another favorite of mine is "A Sailor's Life."

[@marktait2371]

yes her signature song i recall a doc. about her life on bbc had many classics with fairport matty groves one of her best also

[@zedkanata6495]

[@albertsmith9315]

Tarrentino used "Son Of A Preacher Man" in a great scene in Pulp Fiction... he always had good musical sense.

[@scotchbudmeister9018]

Andy - like they say, you need to hear "The Look of Love"

Dusty had a gorgeous voice. Andy & Alex. You NEED to watch the cult movie "Harold and Maude". Cat Stevens soundtrack and a crazy ride. Monty Python and The Holy Grail is another great one ❤

[@loriannshank3472]

"Harold and Maude" - one of my all-time favorite movies! Harold is so understated that you need to have the volume up - he has some great lines and someone I was watching it with missed some. Also don't research the movie before watching it - it'll take away from the story unfolding. You'll see what I mean if/when you watch it.

[@marygoodson4920]

Gotta hit her album "Dusty in Memphis!"

[@williamflawrence]

The biggest hit of this was the original in 67 by the Atlanta Georgia based group"Classics Four" About 8 years later 2 or 3 members of the Classics 4 left and formed a group called The Atlanta Rythem Section which had great successes with several hits including a remake of Spooky.

[@daveofarrell7795]

going back by her is awesome!

[@eileen742]

I absolutely love Going Back. Beautiful song ❤

[@RedDawnRocker]

I watched a documentary on Dusty a few years ago that blew my mind. Dusty was an extremely shy introvert, a long-haired brunette with glasses who was considered cute and lived under her real name (The Springfields were a band with Dusty and her older brother), Mary O'Brian. She had massive stage fright and created the character, Dusty Springfield, losing the glasses, putting on a blonde wig and make-up and acting a role pretty much the opposite of who she was. Talk about bravery. It's a very difficult thing to face your fears but even more difficult to throw yourself into deep water head first while just learning how to swim. She was a true legend.

[@bigbow62]

Classics IV owns this song. No cover can equal the original... give them the respect they deserve !

[@richardfairlamb9728]

One of my favourite Dusty performances. You should check out ‘The look of love’ next. Dusty’s voice is so gorgeous and understated on that song.

[@Swift2Grift]

[@maruad7577]

The Classic IV classic. Their song "Traces" is pretty good as well if you like wistful longing.

[@Sharkman1963]

Billy Gilmore was the bassist on the original Classic IV version and was later the bassist for Atlanta Rhythm Section, which explains perfectly why they did this song as well.

[@exprop3622]

Wistful longing is well phrased. I would have said brings me to tears.

Watch the video where she sings live on a 1972 television show the classic 1960’s love song “Since I Fell For You”, she completely obliterates anyone else’s version, and it’s a live vocal. It’s amazing that she was a smoker with that voice.
