- The Springfields - Island Of Dreams . HD
The Springfields were a British pop-folk vocal trio in the early 1960s, who had success both in the UK, USA and Ireland, but are now best remembered as the launch pad for singer Dusty Springfield.
At the end of 1962 they had the biggest hit of their career in Britain, "Island of Dreams", which reached # 5 in the charts, as did the follow-up "Say I Won't Be There". By this time the Springfields were one of the most popular groups in the UK. However, Dusty Springfield felt increasingly hemmed in by the group's image as a folk act and Tom's lead role within the trio, and towards the end of 1963 decided to leave for a solo career.

No autotune, just talent. We were so lucky to live during these times.
Always makes me cry 😢 reminds me so much of my beautiful mummy she died 1965...and as a young kid I remember this beautiful song 🦋🙏🦋
me too...........
So sorry to hear that. I lost my mother when I was only 19 and she was just 50 in 1979.
So sorry for your loss ❤❤❤
Such a young age to lose your Mum, stay strong! 🙏 ❤
Makes me sad too. Reminds me of my gran who sadly passed away years ago.
This is a beautiful song - I have varied tastes, so it's hard to pick a favourite, but Dusty's superb vocals and the superb music make this a winner - it's an absolute gem!
This song is beautiful and one of many composed by the very talented Tom Springfield. Rest in peace Tom with your sister.
Genuinely one of my all time favourite songs. So utterly perfect, a gem of itself that needs no further polish.
I totally agree. This song is beautiful and up there as one of my favorites too.
RIP Tom Springfield, thanks for all the great hits!
Didn't know he had died. I'm so sorry. But he would be in his mid 80s. He has left such a legacy of beautiful songs.
They all harmonized so well. But one can tell that Dusty was evolving, and her voice was so powerful.
This was the biggest selling UK single she ever sang on
I'm glad I was a young boy growing up and had this great music to listen too, three great looking people, Mike Hurst, Dusty, and Tom and great voices, this was quality entertainment not some of the garbage that's offered today
Yes, I feel fortunate to have lived through the 60s, 70s and even 80s when people could sing, compose AND play and not need "autotune" etc. I do feel sorry for kids today.
Well said the garbage that is rolled out today can not even be called music . The magic of this performance comes from 3 x singers, 2 x guitars , 1 x microphone & a heap of talent. No skimpy clothing, dubbing , lip sync , voice over or other mumbo jumbo.. Makes you kinda think doesn't it ?.. Kind thoughts Peggy Wood (Aotearoa)
One of my first faves at age 7 . Dustys solo on the middle eight made my heart melt…
yes,and yes.................@@murraywood7480
"Ditto!"
The very first time I heard Dusty take the lead and actually sing solo in parts. Just exquisite how her voice effortlessly reaches those notes. Spine-tingling.
A few short years later, she was a solo star in her own right. Ladies and gentlemen, it's Dusty Springfield!
So many wonderful songs, Tom Springfield. Remembered today.
The fifth Seeker.
Dusty was unique even then.
This was the era of pure talent, no need for computers to do voice pitch correction with these guys.
'... no need for computers to do voice pitch correction with these guys.' - Though if you look carefully you can see they were miming the studio production.
.....and those ties are ace!
Beautiful ❤
What a beautiful song dont make songs like this anymore brilliant.❤❤
Love this song. After seeing Pulp Fiction and hearing son of a preacher man for the first time I went to The Colony in Times Square and bought a Dusty Springfield greatest hits CD. This was the first song on the CD ( it went in chronological order). It’s important to include great music in a film so people can learn about songs they may not have known otherwise.
During his induction at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Cat Stevens said "Island Of Dreams" by the Springfields was one of his favorite songs. So, I came to RUclips to check it out. Excellent song! Thanks for posting!
That's why I'm here!
The Seekers version is amazing. Listen, you won't be disappointed. Judith's voice was sublime.
A young Dusty Springfield in fine voice ...and the harmonies are very pleasing to the ear.
Thanks for sharing Louis! Such a great song!
Taking me back to a better time. I think we all knew Dusty was destined for greater things. Lovely song. Thanks for posting
This song brings back so many memories of when I was still in school and I would go on a once a year trip to Thorpe Park and they would play this by the Tidal Waves and the Stealth ride. Such great times. 😄😄😀😀
Heard this on the radio the other day and was struck by it's beauty what a tune .
Can you believe it was 60 years ago…unbelievable!
exquisite first bridge. Beautiful melodies. And that drum part just swings 0:50
My favourite song when i was a mere child! ❤
Early Dusty loved her MY ORIGINAL BABY
Sublime song and harmonies
Video and audio different, but this is the audio I prefer.
Superb version, no doubt about that.
Beautiful!
Kudos also to the Producer/s. Ethereal.
Stay free, Dusty et al. Rab 🍻 😎 🕊
What a great track, so melancholy when i was a 16 year old 'innocent' ❤
RIP Tom Springfield
Never heard this before…..great song
The Springfields put Irish singers on the map along with the Batchelor’s although most people thought they were American due to the stage name Springfields. Dusty and brother Tom, real names Mary and Tom O’Brien had fantastic natural singing voices. RIP guys.
The Springfields were an English group not Irish, and 'Tom' Springfields real name was Dion O'Brien. At least you were right about the Batchelors.
@@Derry_Aire Correct - Dusty was born in Hampstead, not Co Cork!
It's 1963, Dusty is just a kid (minus the heavy eye make-up later) but their talent is superior!
Massive song and group singing it
The original singers
Though do listen to The Seekers' version (which Tom approved of - he wrote several songs specifically for them).
FIVE STARS !!!
What a song
Why did them days have to go so fast.
LUVLI Yo TIMELESS
She is good
Heaven
How is it that the sound systems today are crap compered to this.
Ulie O'Connell Massive singer
My Original Baby
😊😮🎉❤😢
Does anyone know what TV show this was performed on?
What enormous talent and what a horrible time then to be a lesbian. Thanks to them all for such beautiful music left for us all.
she wasnt a lesbian dummy she was married to tom her husband what a dumb thing to say idiot
Cat Stevens brought me here!
You mean the now deranged one who turned to Islam and supported the Fatwa against Salman Rushdie? Yuck.
that guy behind dusty is goosing her all they way through the song! , bare in mind that the show was live lol
I doubt it would have got him very far anyway.Pretty sure he wasn't her type! haha
What does 'goosing' mean?
@@edward6960 Quite right - Dusty prefered girls!
@Al Kerr You have a heart. I left a comment as well.
Was Rolf Harris even there?
Mary O"Hara at her best. Micheal Parkinson would call this " proper music " in his Barnsley FC accent.
Mary O' Brien actually. She worked in C&A originally and Tom Springfield was her brother Dion.
@@ModshackMerlin ... ta ... I knew there was an 'O' in there somewhere. Keep on listening to her songs ... she's one of my absolute favorites singers of all time. P.s. ... do you ride a vespa, or a lambretta ??
mitchell definitely no auto running just brilliant voice bags of talent my childhood l was born 1961
Tunningeven sorry unfortunately it cut your first name off l apologise
Mary O'Hara? Oh dear.
