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.

Breakin’ Up A Happy Home Lyrics
Dusty Springfield
(dennis lambert & brian potter)
If we fuss and we fight
Why do we have to do it every saturday night?
We can act for our friends
But why cant we face each other when the masquerade ends?
Well now, I dont know whats happening
I cant tell just whos to blame
But two forgiving people
Could be so in love again
Stop! were breakin up a happy home
Oh darlin
Stop! cause I never was much good alone
Sweet baby
Oh, dont turn your back and walk away
Dont do it, no
Stop! were breakin up a happy home, yeah
Its a game no-one wins
Trying to hurt each other with those needles and pins
I cant go back, cant go on
But somehow I know the feeling isnt totally gone
Oh, theres so much love between us
That were so afraid to show
Its been keeping us together
But for how long, I dont know
Stop! yeah, were breakin up a happy home
Oh darlin
Stop! I never was much good alone
Listen baby
Ooh, dont, no, turn your back and walk away
Dont do it, oh stop
Stop! were breakin up a happy home, yeah
Ooh
Stop! stop! dont break it up
Stop! stop! dont break it up
Gotta be another way we can try
Stop! stop! dont break it up
Stop! stop! dont break it up
I dont wanna hear you saying goodbye
Oh baby, sweet baby, ahh, yeah baby, ooh baby
