Dusty Springfield was born April 16, 1939, in West Hampstead, London as Mary Isabel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien. She was a musical icon, whose music spanned genres and whose influence spanned generations and across oceans. Her father was an avid fan of classical and jazz, and he would beat out rhythms on the back of her hand, asking the young girl to guess which piece of music that was. She was brought up listening to a wide variety of music. Her mother would bring her to the movies at any opportunity.

A House Is Not A Home Lyrics
Dusty Springfield
(burt bacharach / hal david)
A chair is still a chair
Even though theres no-one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When theres no-one there to hold you tight
And no-one there you can kiss goodnight
A room is still a room
Even though theres nothing there but gloom
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your voice appears
But its just a crazy game
When it ends, it ends in tears
Darling, have a heart
Dont let one mistake keep us apart
Im not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs
And turn the key
Oh, please be there
Still in love with me
Im not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs
And turn the key
Oh, please be there
Still in love with me
