英國實力歌姬［達絲蒂．史賓絲菲爾］──流行靈魂／迪斯可──［Living Without Your Love／沒有你愛情的生活］

If I passed you on the street

Would you look the other way

Afraid that we would meet

Could it be that its down to tears?

After all the love we knew

It was so hard losing you

Now I feel it coming on

That emptiness again

Cause Ive been living without your love

Just making believe I can still get by

Paying the price inside, oh

God knows the hardest thing Ill ever do

Losing you, ooh, oh

I try to put the thoughts away

But I see your face before me

As you turn to walk away

And I can force a smile

Cause it turned out so wrong

After feeling so right so long

And Im just not ready for another day alone

Cause Ive been living without your love

Just making believe I can still get by

Paying the price inside, oh

God knows the hardest thing Ill ever do

Losing you

Yeah, yeah

I feel it coming on

That emptiness again

Cause Ive been living without your love, oh

Just making believe I can still get by

Paying the price inside

Lord knows the hardest thing Ill ever do

Losing you

Im, just living

Oh, living without your love

Ill get by

But Im paying, yeah

Without your love

I cant get back to much more love

Oh no

Im not ready for

Im not ready for

Love and loneliness

Living, oh yes, Im living without your love

Ill just get by

Im just getting by

I cant stand it much longer

Ah, living, living without

進入１９７０年代後，英國白人靈魂歌姬達絲蒂．史賓絲菲爾（Dusty Springfield）事業下滑, 唱片銷售每下愈況

１９７０年代中期, 為躲避英倫小報追逐, 她選擇長居美國

這時達絲蒂與美國聯藝音樂（United Artist Music）簽約, 英國發行權交給Mercury唱片

１９７８年２月, 達絲蒂推出第十張大碟［It Begins Again／再度開始］，獲得多項正面評價。

但只取得英國專輯榜＃４１──這是她八年來首張入榜大碟.

１９７９年１月（美國）／３月（英國），３９歲半的 達絲蒂推出第１１張大碟［Living Without Your Love／沒有你愛情的生活］，在洛杉磯錄製.

由David Wolfert製作，曲風走 流行與迪斯可。評價良好。

第二主打是標題曲［Living Without Your Love］．

由Steve Nelson, David Wolfert創作，David Wolfert製作成一首流行靈魂／迪斯可，

主場以抒情開場，副歌進入迪斯可節拍．

旋律悅耳，節奏輕快．

可是大眾接受度低，此曲未打入排行榜，

大碟同樣銷售悽慘，讓史賓絲菲爾東山再起之路繼續受挫．
