Her biggest hit without a doubt was her disco version of the 1970s Gordon Lightfoot ballad (and years before the song was made popular again by the film "54") "If You Could Read My Mind":
"If You Could Read My Mind" from a Netherlands tv show, 1981.
Ah, what a tale my thoughts would tell. Indeed. I also loved this track, the deceptively sweet sounding slow burner "Gonna Get Along Without You Now":
"Gonna Get Along Without You Now", 1979.
Who hasn't wanted to say that to someone, somewhere along the line? One of the greatest break-up songs of all time.
Vale Ms Wills, and a big thank you from the dancefloor.

I really loved those songs!
On a different note, have you seen this one? Quality back-up dancers! A great laugh.
