Dame Shirley Bassey hits those notes with accuracy & she makes it look so easy when it is her pure talent. So few singers can sing like Dame Bassey. She is just WOW.
When it comes to music time is irrelevant… a good singer is a good singer. Fortunately I was around when Shirley was banging them out. A truly exceptional talent…. Once in a lifetime performer. Guys listen to more for you have only scratched the surface.
I was taken to see Dr No when I was a boy in the 60s. It was stunning as was From Russia With Love and this one, Goldfinger. I adored Shirley as she seemed so exotic and mesmerising.
I had the privilege of attending two live Bassey concerts in the 80s (at the Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles). Shirley personified "diva" before the word was common in popular culture. To witness her entrance on to the stage (alone) was worth the price of admission. She wore robes encrusted with stones that could be seen from the "no oxygen" seats; and would slowly remove them (in a sultry manner) and toss them aside; as if telling her audience..."The Queen has officially arrived!". Then there's THAT voice backed up by an orchestra she conducted with subtle hand gestures. Ms Bassey is (no doubt) one of the greatest performers of the 20th century ❤️
As an American of a certain age who somehow missed the experience of Dame Shirley back in the day - I was blown away by her performances. I came to see these men react to a beautiful singer from a different era blow the roof off a song! We won't likely see the likes of for a long, long time. Enjoy!
One of the greatest voices of the 20th century. Have seen her live 15 times and the experience was ten times better than you get from watching videos. Another amazing performance from this concert was 'Somehow'' and also, from The Talk of the Town in 1972 I think, was a song called 'Excuse Me'. There are so many you could dedicate an entire channel to her 63 year career. The Lady is a Tramp from the Royal Gala, again at the Royal Albert Hall. Phenomenal vocals. Really enjoy watching you guys 👌
You guys are awesome 😎☺️🎶 Dame Shirley Bassey ♾️♾️💎☺️ she's World Legend Queen 👑 of POP ROCK CLASS from late 50s to now. That voice is like no other and so gorgeous makes the heart feel good Brilliance beauty 😍
I was 12 years old in 1964 when the movie Goldfinger was released and I saw it in a movie theater. So that makes me well old. But with a smile on my face.
I absolutely love Shirley Bassey, she is such a talented performer, she brings class, sexy fun, passion and that unmistakable voice......wow !! she sung a number of bond movie songs
Dame Shirley Bassey holds the record of singing the most James Bond themes Gold Finger, Diamonds are Forever & Moonraker. Shirley only performs with a live orchestra. Now in her 80's her voice hasn't changed and she can still hit the big notes. Love her version of The Beatles hit Hey Jude.. Just found you keep up the good work.
Shirley is from Wales like my mother,so we listened to her alot👍 & My Father met her when he was 21 & he said she was just Beautiful❤Her Voice is Bloody Amazing👌
@@cliff9685 thanks yes I saw the new video and did not know about her reaching the 3rd in the UK, not surprising, her voice has not not changed a bit! Great for her at that age!
Would love a reaction to her first appearance - one that got her banned by the BBC. 19 years old in 1956 singing "Burn my Candle". The girl from Tiger Bay.
Some other James Bond themes that are worth checking out include Tom Jones Thunderball, Lulu's the Man with the Golden Gun and Carly Simon's nobody Does it Better (The Spy Who Loved Me)

Dame Shirley Bassey is a national treasure of Wales! As my mother would have said when she heard her sing, "She's Welsh you know."
Tiger Bay boyo.

Kissing her shoulder and laughing in the middle of the song.

Goddess!
I've heard this singer and song a number of times. She has an amazing voice. Yabba dabba doo.
I was 12 years old in 1964 when the movie Goldfinger was released and I saw it in a movie theater. So that makes me well old. But with a smile on my face.
I absolutely love Shirley Bassey, she is such a talented performer, she brings class, sexy fun, passion and that unmistakable voice......wow !! she sung a number of bond movie songs
Yes this was the theme song to the James bond film Goldfinger she also did theme songs to 2 other James bond films Diamonds are forever and Moonraker
It was the song from Goldfinger Bond film. Shirley one of the best British singers ever, she's from Wales, think Cardiff area.
Magical performance.
Dame Shirley Bassey holds the record of singing the most James Bond themes Gold Finger, Diamonds are Forever & Moonraker. Shirley only performs with a live orchestra. Now in her 80's her voice hasn't changed and she can still hit the big notes. Love her version of The Beatles hit Hey Jude.. Just found you keep up the good work.
Hard not to applaud for her
I live how she says,"pretty girl ".
She's one classy lady.
Shirley is from Wales like my mother,so we listened to her alot👍 & My Father met her when he was 21 & he said she was just Beautiful❤Her Voice is Bloody Amazing👌
Thanks guys.
gran dama de la cancion
I love you two...Please do Bassey singing 'This is My Life' at Sanremo in 1968, black and white footage...it's off the radar x
I second this!!!!
Why are people talking as if she has passed, she is still alive as far as I know!!!???
She has a brand new album out “I Owe It All To You.” It hit no.3 in the UK. Not bad for an 83 year old!

Gold finger is one of the songs sung by shirley bassey for one of the 007 movies
Loved your reaction to this. I'd love to see you react to her singing My Life.
Yes it was the theme song to the Bond movie!
If you haven’t heard her singing The Living Tree check it out.
If you haven’t heard her version of the song, Goldfinger from the James Bond film of the same name, don’t miss it!
My 2nd Fav. Bond song, the 1st of course is "Nobody Does it Better" by Carly Simon.
if you want to see her at full pelt watch 'the living tree' from the royal variety show 2005
Some other James Bond themes that are worth checking out include Tom Jones Thunderball, Lulu's the Man with the Golden Gun and Carly Simon's nobody Does it Better (The Spy Who Loved Me)
Excuse me but you forgot to mention Matt Munro doing the best Bond theme From Russia With Love
You can tell she never mimes cos of the laugh she did at one point and yea was from a bond movie
Listen to Tom Jones singing Thunderball…….!
Yabba dabba doo!
You can see why she got a knighthood from the Queen.
That white audience couldn't get past her color to stand and give her a standing ovation that she deserved 👏.
No, that was safety regulations.
Did you watch the whole concert? I believe they did at some point, I think the end when she did an encore.
Can't understand a lot of what you're saying.
One of the best live performances I've ever seen. That woman has PRESENCE. Damn.
