Friday Jukebox..

I was moved by a recent request from my dear friend and faithful reader austexgrl,to rummage around in my giant stainless steel vault for a song that conveyed a feeling that I'm sure we've all been subject to at one time or another.
Haven't you ever longed to be with someone so completely,that their absence left you in literal,and physical pain?
That unsettled distress that begins in the pit of your stomach,and radiates into your chest so that you're very nearly caught short of breath for the damned inequity of the situation?
Hence the term, 'heartache' I suppose..

In any case,speaking for myself,my thoughts immediately leaped to an especially plaintive ballad,performed by the lovely and talented Ms. Dusty Springfield.
(Don't you just love her name BTW?..It's all breezy and natural,and totally in sync with the whole 60's era thing)..

I'm probably going a wee bit out on a limb here,but I'm gonna compare her remarkable vocal ability to the likes of even Barbara Streisand.
Of course,she never did achieve the diva status over the years that Barb enjoyed.
...But still.
