Dusty Springfield - I Only Wanna Be With You (1963) 4K

Dusty Springfield performing “I Only Wanna Be With You“, released originally in 1963. It reached #4 in the UK Singles Chart, #6 in the Australian Charts, #7 in the New Zealand Charts, #12 in the US Billboard Hot 100 and #14 in the US Cash Box Top 100. This was Dusty Springfield’s first single as a solo artist - she was previously a member of The Springfields with her brother Tom. That group had five Top 10 hits in the UK and one in the US (“Silver Threads and Golden Needles“) before Dusty’s departure. “I Only Want to Be With You“ launched Dusty’s Hall of Fame career, and became the first hit by a British artist since The Beatles started their run. Springfield was 24 when the song was released. Written by Mike Hawker and Ivor Raymonde, who also wrote Springfield’s song “Stay Awhile.“ Hawker also wrote “Walking Back to Happiness“ for Helen Shapiro. This song is about a girl who has finally found the guy of her dreams - or at least she thinks so. It’s very much a teenage crush song in the same vein as many of the girl group songs Springfield loved. When she came to America and began her solo career, Dusty took more of a pop/R&B direction inspired by groups like The Shirelles and The Crystals.
