Dusty Springfield ‘s real big hit (Her only # 1 ) was ” You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me ” which was originally an Italian ballad she heard at The San Remo Music Festival in early 1960s in Italy, which she was at along with Petula Clark, etc, and had English lyrics written to the tune, by Vicki Wickenham/ Simon Napier thus making it her only # 1 hit in her career, here’s a YouTube link of the guy who originally sang it in Italian whom she had heard it from :

Hi again Jurgen, I’m sorry but was never nor will I be a fan of Avril ‘s music, only my opinion, but her music simply does not, never has appealed to me and I think her music care took off after she had won a radio contest to getup onstage and sing with Shania Twain at an Ottawa show Concert that Shania was doing, many moons ago… same thing with my hometown gal Alannis Morissette, I liked her early stuff until her Jagged Pill stuff, tgen was not a fan but now her current stuff, I can tolerate….lol…

As For Canadian female singers, I enjoy Sarah McClaughan, Anne Murray, LeMeow ( Gin Bourgeois ) , Shania Twain, Kelly Prescott, … Although I’m into alot of old school country music folks, Carol Baker is a Canadian country singer, that I enjoy music of and did enjoy Rita McNeill, I love Heather Rankin ( of The Rankins fame in Canada), Cowboy Junkies, Molly Johnston, Dawn Langston, Amanda Stott, Amanda Wilkinson, just to rattle off a few Canadian female musicians/singers that I enjoy of…

Jung lives out on West Coast while I live kinda near East Coast …. just so you have an idea where we 2 Canuckers live… also as Jung is aware, I’m not keen on Classical or Neil Young stuff either…lol..

I definitely have eclectic and certain likes/dislikes in my music tastes but again, only my opinion, everyone’s music tastes vary outside of the realm of MLT music, and that’s okay ….????☮

Hi Jurgen, there’s a similar topic that was posted on here awhile back ago where women musicians were mentioned, perhaps someone can recall better than I and find it… but for your post, here, I’ll rattle off as many as comes to mind vocally and/or musician wise/both that I’m a fan of :

Patsy Cline, Dusty Springfield, Cass Elliot, Amy Winehouse, Petulant Clark, Martha Reeves, Reba McEntire, Patty Loveless, Janis Joplin, Billie Holiday, Marla Gibbs, June Carter Cash, Mother Maybelle Carter , Bonnie Raitt, Sheryl Crowe, Ronnie Spector, Karen Carpenter, Agnetha & Anni-Frida, Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstandt, Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn, Allison Krause, Ella Fitzgerald, Mahalia Jackson, Amy Grant, and many more, but for now, these will suffice as I could go on and on but not all names are coming to me….

My reply to Jung got lost ….on here under this topic here, Lost in Topic Of Space discussion….lol… amongst Jung, Jurgen, David’s banter but I enjoy your back and forth of Canadians Chris Hadfield & William Shatner , I’mbaware of who they are ????????????

[Jacki Hopper]

I wasn’t aware of this Hubble Telescope thing that’s being mentioned here, lol… I’m not really into following that kind of stuff, but yet I enjoy original Star Trek and The Next Generation and even Buck Rogers , Battlestar Galactica on tv in the 1970s/80s growing up and only like the Star Wars movies that feature Carrie Fisher/Harrison Ford/Mark Hamill , Billy Dee Williams in them…lol… and Wayne Parker’s ( Glass Tiger’s bass player) side business of his SkyShed Observatory Pods for astronomers …. And have watched Shuttle launches on tv, especially The Challenger disaster …. watching David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust movie in movie theatre as a teen back in the 80s ….

The key to the future is to be optimistic, hopeful, open-minded , positive minded … I’ll leave it at that …????

Hi Jung, right off the bat, I’m going to say, anything where cows, dogs, sheep/lamb were shown in particular in MLT photos/videos official or casual, are considered to be my faves ????????????

[Jacki Hopper]

Where does one view from, this documentary ” Get Back ” , I don’t have tv cable nor can I afford to subscribe, to stream it if or time being, if that’s the only way to view this, hoping to eventually be able to afford the Beatles doc-film ” Here, There Everywhere” that has MLT featured in it, once it made available publicly to buy ….

[Jacki Hopper]

Though I’ve already previously have stated where I’m from on Advent Calendar, and in the ” Introduce Yourself” area on here, I’m just going to say, Onrario, Canada ????????????????….Gidday Eh !?

[Jacki Hopper]

I came along 6 years later …. but being the Dusty Springfield fan that I am, I’ve watched this many times on YouTube and loved how how she asked the Beatles the Q & A on RSG, subsequently, she was doing the RSG stuff as in hosting /appearing right after she and her brother Tom and Mike Hurst disbanded as The Springfields before she went solo , and her brother Tom became a songwriter for The Seekers, etc ( btw, Tom and Dusty aren’t their real names )

[Jacki Hopper]

Yeppers MLT are a rarity real deal these days in the music landscape that I can honestly Respect and Love, Appreciate, and how they Respect their fanbase, indeed with the exceptions of a few others that I enjoy music of besides MLT in today’s music and how they respect their fanbase( I like old school stuff pretty much pre 1990s , for most part before MLT entered my world almost 15 yrs ago … )…????

Hi again Jurgen, in reply to your reply to my reply to you, the top 4 at least female singers that stand out for me because of their vocal vesatility are : Patsy Cline/Dusty Springfield/Cass Elliot … Though both Cass and Dusty Springfield had previously been in a group before going solo ( Dusty was with Lana Sisters and then with her brother Tom and Springfield and first Tim Fields later replaced by Mike Hurst as The Springfields and Cass Elliot with Cass and The Big 3, then The Mugwumps, then with Mamas & Papas, Cass collaborated with Dave Mason and then went solo ) . These ladies and their vocal versatility allowed them to sing a variety of styles .

As female musicians go, the list I had previously posted that you found sums up more or less the musicians aspect but some others are already have been mentioned here by other, are also ones that I enjoy …. ????☮

[Jacki Hopper]
