RIP Dusty, you were one of the best.

[@jmrodas9]

Dusty Sppringfiled had an outstanding voice, and she was very elegant and had very nice hairdos. I liked to see her sing on TV, she was so pretty.

This is my favorite from Mrs. Dusty Springfield! 💚💚💚

Mrs??

[@dianefiske-foy4717]

Mine too.

[@leogeee1]

Riding my bike with my transistor radio listening to Dusty Springfield was an escape from reality.

[@plague71]

Boy, what a singer!

[@contenderbp]

This was one of the greatest songs of the 60’s. My God how simple life was. AM radio with only one speaker was all we needed.

[@musicrocksoffical]

Dusty was truly the best from Britain. ❤️❤️❤️

[@ellenrosenblatt5463]

your memory is distorted. mostly the music on the AM radio was crud.

Me, too.

One of the best ever female voices.

[@bobharrison9243]

Dusty was something special in my generation, yes we were radical for those times, but Dusty was someone we listened to after walking along the beach collecting drift wood for our fire, fishing rods out, guitars strumming before a night with friends singing around the campfire we had made. Fish, steaks, potatoes, toast, lots of grog. The cops used to come down & make sure all were ok & sometimes they used to join us for a beer & a song. We always wondered into the ocean with our empty King Browns ( Big Beer Bottles ) fill them up with sea water & make sure the fires were out so that no one would burn their feet the next morning. Simple times as young people with great music. Sadly those times have gone because of a minority , to have a beer/wine now attracts a $200 fine. God help you if you light a fire. What can i say but. Once upon a time there was a tavern. Those were the days my friend.

[@Katy-ye1zr]

+bob harrison I remember those days you speak of. Upon graduation we went to Alki Beach to celebrate a little, we had a little fire maybe some beer and soda, police came to check us out just once no hassles among us or from anyone else.... But about this song... when this song was out, young women were ladylike and not hanging all out for attention- their voices held you. girl groups, Eartha Kitt, Barbara Lewis, Barbara Mason, Dionne Warwick, Diane Renay, Mary Wells, and Petula Clark. There were many Folk music was on the rise and Aretha broke into the scene soon. Bless them all they brightened our lives didn't they?

[@flyingmerkel6]

bob harrison Yeah dude. It's sad that a few wrecked it for the many. Dusty Springfield is special somehow.

[@sirrobin.63]

@@cameronadair4135 what a very sad comment …. I truly hope your outlook/life has improved since you made it. Be well , be happy.

[@ajgottesman]

I can relate and as I read my smile got bigger, thank you

[@michaelgarcia5689]

what a great memory...im in my late 40s and long for those times.. the music was magical.

Dusty Springfield was the best. The more I hear and see her the more I like here. I remember this song on a 45rpm record and it was new!

Love this song from Dusty🎤🎼

[@derekkess265]

I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?

[@robertmiller1655]

Good advice for anyone who needs true love. And don't give up until you find it. Because it's out there, waiting for your true heart.

Dusty Springfield(April 16th,1939-March 2nd,1999).!

[@jmrodas9]

One of my favorites of the sixties of last Century. And Dusty did an excellent version of this song sung initially by Dionne Warwick. One of those songs that are so good they are timeless really.

[@rohansrider]

Also the Merseybeats covered it well; a very gentle version.

[@jmrodas9]

@@rohansrider Well thanks for the info, I shall hear it. Regards.

I loved this song. Always wished someone would feel that way about me. She did, but cancer took her after only 34 years together.

So sorry, David. May she R.I.P.

Jimmy Page played the guitar on this. He was a 22 year old session guitar player in London from 1962-65.

Richard Gablick absolutely we're talkin total professional song You songs were number one hits because they were saying and done by professionals

[@northnsouth6813]

Dusty Springfield, who had heard the Warwick album track, recorded "Wishin' and Hopin'" in January 1964 at Olympic Studios. (The eclectic list of musicians who recorded there include the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin and the Beatles) Personnel for the session included Bobby Graham on drums, Big Jim Sullivan on guitar, and the Breakaways vocal group. Ivor Raymonde arranged and conducted on the session.

[@emilymalden3310]

I never knew that.

[@delaware137]

That's funny. I was just thinking how much this Springfield song has in common with Led Zepplelin's "Black Dog".

[@MsFutureguy]

Love these memories . I tore through the streets of Phoenix with a 1964 Plymouth sport Fury with 440 magnum under the hood, yup am radio, of course.

[@northnsouth6813]

I,m in love every time I see and listen to Dusty.

[@richardscanlan3167]

The Brits had a group of these crooners in the sixties, - Dusty, Petula Clark,Sandy Shaw,Cilla Black,Lulu,Helen Shapiro,and more... Great stuff,from a great decade of music.

[@lindaeasley5606]

Dusty and Petula were the only two Brit solo female artists to make it big in the US. Dusty did alot of collaboration with legendary songwriter Burt Bacharach. He wrote this song for her

[@richardscanlan3167]

@@lindaeasley5606 interesting. And surprised only Dusty/Petula made it big in the US. Although,I shouldn't be - I mean,no one made it big in the USA,until a certain band from Liverpool:))

[@willybilly51]

This is not the Original Song. The song was first recorded by Dionne Warwick and was the B-side of Warwick's single "This Empty Place" ...

[@g.beatrizacuna2882]

I like this song. Good rithm, so catchy, and the words are typpical of the teenage or adolescent stage...I realized that today the song would not be approved by the radical ideology, that condemns many cultural expresions... never mind. Thanks Tailgate. It's a nice song

[@shmuli9]

They used to refer to her as "Ol' Black Eyes" (a play on Frank Sinatra being known as "Ol' BLue Eyes") because she wore that rather heavy, panda-bear mascara around her eyes, which was copied by many young women who subsequently got in trouble if they worked at certain priggish firms...
