英國實力歌姬[達絲蒂.史賓絲菲爾]──成人流行/白人靈魂抒情曲──[Im Coming Home Again/我再度回家]
Im not as crazy as I used to be
Some of my devils upped and left me free
To find a quiet space
Im not as out of place
Im not as lonely as I was before
I dont go in less theres an open door to leave by
Im starting to believe my own existence has a right to be
And Im comin home again
Its been too long a time
Gettin back whats mine
And I cant remember why I went away
But its lookin now like maybe I can stay
The poets cried for dreams they never saw
The only certainty is nothins sure
And most things stay the same
Or go back where they came
And though my answers still are undefined
By takin chances I can start to find some reasons
Somethin to believe in
I can make it through
I can make it through
And Im comin home again
Its been too long a time
Gettin back whats mine
And I cant remember why I went away
But its lookin now like maybe I can stay
Oh, and Im comin home again
Its been too long a time
Gettin back whats mine
And I cant remember why I went away
But its lookin now like maybe I can stay
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。
首支主打是[Im Coming Home Again/我再度回家].
這是翻唱美國’靈魂樂女皇’葛蕾蒂絲奈特(Gladys Knight)1978年的歌曲.
由Bruce Roberts+Carole Bayer Sager創作,David Wolfert製作成一首成人流行/白人靈魂抒情曲,
在優美的鋼琴聲中,達絲蒂的沙啞嗓音以溫柔唱腔表現出跟葛蕾蒂絲奈特不一樣的風情.
只是此曲未打入排行榜,
大碟同樣銷售悽慘,讓史賓絲菲爾東山再起之路繼續受挫.
