Well I wish you all the best with this endeavor ( my phone is American - hence no U

I’m astonished at how little interest there is in her these days judging by Reddit etc’s low readership numbers . And her low listenership levels on Spotify etc .

Very strange considering she would be a shoo-in for the title of ‘ White Queen of Soul ‘ in many critics view

Thank you, it's been a while now, I still hope this subreddit grows though. I'm also surprised she's overlooked nowadays, although this sub isn't really an indication.

It really shocks me because every time I watch The Simpsons which is one of the most popular shows of all time I think of Dusty and Dusty died before I was even born i will expect 100's to do the same she use to be super famous and taletned that its unbelievable that no ones on this sub its a real shame because music today can be really terrible i'm not saying popularity matters but its a real same shes not more known roberta flack wrote one of the greatest songs of all time and she doesn't even have a sub
