I noticed in the FAQ that Dusty Springfield was mentioned as having covered 
a KT song but there is no listing of what.

Dusty performed "My Lagan Love" live on her TV series DUSTY in 
the mid-60's, and so, did that one first. It is an old Irish song.

Dusty also performed "The Man With The Child In His Eyes" in concert I 
believe in 1978 at The Royal Albert Hall, and, I am sure, having the 
legendary Dusty Springfield covering a Kate song so early in Kate's 
career was a big plus and show of support towards Kate.

Dusty is famous for having impeccable taste in songs and songwriters. In 
fact, no one else comes to mind that even comes close to Dusty in terms 
of her ear for brilliant songs and songwriters.

So, that should help fill out the FAQ.

Cheers.
