Dusty Springfield was the only White Girl who can sing a R & B Song and while it would never match the likes of Aretha Franklin or any R & B Song she covered, she could still hold her own. Forgive me for saying this but British White Girls always sang Music with more Soul than the White Girls from The US. I think it's because they were always die hard fans of Soul Music.
Just rediscovered the Amazing One again this spring. What an amazing voice. What an amazing musician. What an amazing person. She makes you believe every word of every song she sings. I have the LP this song and get a laugh at the original lyrics. After she sings, "Ain't had no lovin' since you know when," she sings, "He's a lonely ole rooster and I'm a lonesome hen." LOL. Guess it was too funky for the BBC.
I'm getting senile, I know, but at 2.25 she gets a frog in her throat & her voice gets croaky. On the studio recording, the next line starts with "yeah", but here she sings "hah". Tell me she didn't clear her throat, in tune & in time, and I didn't realise what she'd done (not for 44 years anyway).
@djr4565 I've watched this performance countless times and never noticed but you're right she definitely clears her throat at that point. She often had to do that between songs.
I just noticed something... does anyone else think that Dusty had the sexiest neck and shoulders ever? I always felt that she was very beautiful, but that aspect of her beauty really comes out in this clip IMO.
"Everything's Coming Up Dusty" was my first introduction to Dusty.
To me, it ranks as Dusty's best complete album. Not a bad track from start to finish and much more like the true Dusty (energy wise) than "Dusty in Memphis".
I have that album and that was MY complete intro to Dusty, too! "It Won't Be Long", "Oh Not My Baby", "Doodlin'", "If It Don't Work Out" and "Can't Hear You" make that album!!!! Imagine my surprise when I found out that these were all covers! She surely made those 5 songs her own!!!!
How many people do you know of that have made as much of an impact on the music world and the hearts of their fans as Dusty Springfield? Not many I'll bet. Love you Dusty!!! You will live forever in our hearts! Happy Dusty Day!
