Not all of them became chart hits (or perhaps only in a few countries) and most of these songs have become forgotten gems (not surprisingly, the best are from the 1960s and 1970s).

Another Dusty Springfield--This soundtrack album is considered an audiophile classic. Here is her track which is probably better known than the main title theme.
