Comments / Notes



How sad! :(

All one can remember of her in this generation is that Pet Shop Boys song she was on. I'll miss her. What have I done to deserve this?

No guilty pleasure there, Robert! The Pet Shop Boys are two of the finest pop musicians, well, ever. I wouldn't know about Dusty Springfield if it wasn't for them, and now I hope to discover more of her illustrious solo career. Godspeed, Dusty!

Was that really necessary? Let her rest in peace, she has more talent than you could ever dream of having, you just made yourself look very ignorant and no true Moz fan would make such homophobic comments.
