  In January 1989, during her appearance on "Aspel & Company," Dusty Springfield was in a period of resurgence after facing a career slump. Prior to this live recording, she had released the album "White Heat" in 1989, which was a collection of new material showcasing her enduring talent and deep emotional connection to music. This moment marked a significant comeback for her as she embraced a new wave of popularity, particularly in the UK. Interestingly, Springfield had previously struggled with her mental health and her place in the music industry, but her performance of "I Only Want to Be with You" demonstrated her enduring vocal prowess. The song itself was one of her early hits from 1963 that solidified her status as a pop icon, and its inclusion in this 1989 live performance reflects her ability to connect with audiences across generations.
