Marianne Faithfull's first hit, "As Tears Go By," was recorded when she was just 17 years old after she met with the manager of the Rolling Stones at a party.

A fresh-faced singer in the 1960s, she went on to experience more than her share of hard times before emerging triumphant in the ’70s.

After struggling with drug abuse and personal loss, she reemerged in 1979 with the acclaimed album “Broken English.”
