Isnt it time all of loves bad debts got paid?
Dont be afraid
Isnt it true?
If you dont trust in yourself
Youll trust no-one else
All your favourite memories
Are not your worst enemies
Come on, give em a ride
You gotta decide to push them aside
Give it a try
You gotta get yourself to love
Shes not the only one
You, you gotta get yourself to love
Why be the lonely one?
Get yourself to love
Take away the things you need to start again
Your heart will never mend
Take away, oh, the chance you have to slip and fall
You will miss it all
Drop your one-part harmonies
For the harder melodies
Youre so aware
Of the crosses you bear
Dont be so scared
Show that you care
Oh, you, oh, you gotta get yourself to love
Shes not the only one
Oh, you, yes you, you gotta get yourself to love
Why be the lonely one?
Oh, you, yeah, you gotta get yourself to love
Yes, love, you gotta love sometime
You, oh, you
Why be the sad and lonely one?
You know
You can do it, yes, you can do it, you can do it for yourself
Yes, you can, oh, dont bend
You can do it, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it for yourself
Dusty Springfield, nome d'arte di Mary Isabel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien (Londra, 16 aprile 1939 – Henley-on-Thames, 2 marzo 1999), è stata una cantante britannica il cui impatto sulla storia del costume e della musica popolare britannica del XX secolo è paragonabile a quello che Mina ha avuto in Italia o Dalida ebbe in Francia. Mary è la secondogenita di Gerard e Catherine (Kay) O'Brien, immigrati irlandesi stabilitisi in uno dei quartieri operai della periferia nord di Londra. Cresce nel sobborgo di Ealing e già da bambina si guadagna il soprannome di Dusty per il suo atteggiamento da maschiaccio. Eredita la passione per la musica dal nonno materno, che la incoraggia ad ascoltare autori come George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers, Cole Porter, Count Basie, Duke Ellington e Glenn Miller. Il suo modello musicale da ragazzina è Peggy Lee. Nel 1958 lascia la scuola e, rispondendo a un annuncio su un giornale, si unisce al gruppo delle Lana Sisters. Grazie a questa esperienza impara l'armonia vocale e il lavoro di palcoscenico. Nel 1960 inizia la sua carriera solista con il nome d'arte Dusty Springfield, ottenendo subito successo con brani come "I Only Want to Be with You" e "Stay Awhile". Nel corso degli anni '60 e '70 raggiunge fama internazionale grazie a album come "Dusty in Memphis" (1969), considerato un capolavoro del soul britannico. La sua voce potente, il suo stile elegante e la sua capacità di interpretare brani pop, soul e rhythm and blues con grande sensibilità l'hanno resa una delle artiste più ammirate della sua generazione. Dusty Springfield è stata anche una pioniera per le donne nella musica, sfidando i canoni di genere e ottenendo un successo duraturo nonostante le difficoltà del mondo musicale.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
