"You Don't Have To Say You Love Me" #4 7/16/1966

A personal fave. My wife Susan and I heard this on satellite radio a few weeks ago and we marveled at how Dusty Springfield could belt this one out. Dusty attended the San Remo music festival in Italy and fell in love with the song, even though she didn't speak the language. She was able to have English lyrics written, and scored a UK #1 plus a US Top 5 with it. Elvis covered this quite well in 1970 and performed it on stage the rest of his life.
