"Haunted" by Dusty Springfield

English vocalist Dusty Springfield was a staple on the 60s music charts, thrilling audiences with her renditions of tunes like "Wishin' And Hopin'" (#6), "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me" (#4), "The Look Of Love" (#22), and "Son-Of-A Preacher Man" (#10). 

Her career suddenly fizzled with the coming of the 70s, but she resurfaced in 1987 to achieve her biggest hit of all. Her duet with the Pet Shop Boys, "What Have I Done To Deserve This?" soared all the way to #2 for two weeks. Springfield passed away in 1999 from cancer at the age of 59.

"Haunted" goes back to the era when she could do no wrong. Lost in the pile of charting singles Springfield released, "Haunted" is an underrated gem that never saw chart action.
