In 1975 she released the country-influenced record Dreamin' My Dreams, which reached the top of the Irish Albums Chart. Faithfull moved into a squat without hot water or electricity in Chelsea with her then-boyfriend Ben Brierly, of punk band The Vibrators.
Faithfull`s career returned full force in 1979 with the album Broken English, one of her most critically hailed album releases. The album was partially influenced by the punk explosion and on her marriage to Brierly in the same year.
In 1985, she was at Hazelden Clinic in Minnesota, U.S.A. for rehabilitation. She then received treatment at McLean Hospital in Belmont, Massachusetts. While living at a hotel in nearby Cambridge, she started an affair (while still married) with a dual diagnosis (mentally ill and drug dependent) man, Howard Tose. She and Brierly divorced in 1986. In 1987, Faithfull dedicated a thank you to Mr. Tose within the album package of Strange Weather, on the back sleeve: "To Howard Tose with love and thanks". In 1995, she wrote and sang about the experience of his death in "Flaming September" from the album A Secret Life.
