More information

The British singer, actress, and style icon Marianne Faithfull passed away in January 2025 after a partly very hard life. She was born on December 29, 1946, in Reading, and as a teenager, she moved to London where she met Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham at a party. He asked Mick Jagger and Keith Richards to write a song for her. The song "As tears go by" entered the UK top ten in 1964, and 17-year-old Marianne Faithfull became a major star. The following year, she had three more singles that reached the top ten in the UK and the top 40 in the US. At the same time, she began acting and appeared as herself in the legendary French director Jean-Luc Godard's "Made in USA" in 1966. The late 1960s and early 1970s were turbulent for Faithfull – she had a relationship with Mick Jagger, struggled with drug addiction, lost custody of her son, and was homeless in London for a time. In 1976, the album "Dreamin' my dreams" was released. However, the major comeback came in 1979 with "Broken English," which became one of her most acclaimed albums. Over the years, she collaborated with Nick Cave, Emmylou Harris, Beck, and Metallica. In total, she released 21 albums over a 55-year career.
