As a lesbian who hid herself too long, this songs makes me cry with my whole existence. A few days after i heard this i came out. It s insane how much power music has. It s honestly insane.
have you heard her sing i am what i am, its brilliant, you cant love or be loved until you begin to love yourself first, i have a grandson of 12 who is gay and is so confused, hormones and emotions are all over the place, he has a massive amount from all of his family and we will support him always, good luck to you and have a great life xxxx
Who is listening in 2021 - I listened last year and sent this song to family and friends and strangers not one response back. But I will tell you this they all know. Shirley is incredible 🙏❤️✌️👏👏👏👏👏
This is my life by Shirley Bassey. My best friend Colin favorite song. Played during his funeral. Everytime I listened to this song I remembered my best friend. This is one of the best song I've ever heard in my life. No one can sing better than Shirley Bassey.
I'm a straight woman who was born in an era when women were still expected to get married & have children; I did neither. Instead, I went to college, obtained 3 degrees, & worked in my chosen field for 20 years before retiring at 56 yrs old. No one, absolutely no one, questioned my choices; the reason... "This Is My Life!" Thank You, Dame Shirley Bassey.
Early retirement vs. having children and a husband who loves you... hmmm. As a straight woman born in current era, I say having children is a much more fulfilling experience. The reason... "This Is My Life!"
Mum passed away last Thursday the 28th, May, 2020. Mum loved Shirley Bassey and this song will be played at mum’s funeral. Thank you Shirley for entertaining mum for many years...mum loved you. R.I.P Mum xxxx
I am a forever fan of the great Dame Shirley Bassey. What a powerhouse of a voice, often imitated but could never, never be replicated. God Bless You Dame Bassey.
This woman is amazing. There is not another singer of her type to rival her in the world, she belts out a song effortlessly with vim and vigor. And truly amazing to watch live, we love you Shirley. Xxx
Dame Shirley. The greatest ever, and I mean the very greatest Artist. God Bless her, saw Dame Shirley in Oxford 50s I’m now,91 you just have to Love her.
Steven Andrea Bocelli isn’t the same calibre as the others listed - he has a lovely tone but technically he’s quite shit, trained opera singers hate him
My mother past away yesterday morning she was a big fan of Shirley Bassey she went to see her in concert many years ago so I will suggest to the rest of my family that this song should be played at her funeral
Shirley Bassey is without equal. She is sublime & this performance was not just a great one, it summed up her life. What an amazing woman, a true star & my heroine.
Whòoo! ❤ gosh! Though i was not Born in her genre I always prefer shirley Bassey ..i just love everything about her. When she opens up her mouth and starts To sing damn! ... I saved lots of her albums from minus one tapes and cd's I am a big fan of her Wish she never never Grows old at all..much Love here😍❤🌷🇸🇽
Gosh, she's a wonderful singer!! Si.... This is my Life~ What r u doing the rest of ur life? That was our Wedding Song~ She sang this beautiful song~ Great beautiful memories!! We have been soooo blessed by God (4) 47 wonderful yrs. 2 gether!!! Now, thats a GREAT BLESSING!!! ❤❤
Those poor, tone-deaf souls that elected to give Ms. Bassey a thumbs down are merely a tribe of disjointed, disaffected trolls just looking to be contrary. It happens a lot on UA-cam. This marvelously talented performer could sing circles around many of today's so-called "divas". She had great pipes and certainly knew how to use them. Her singing gifts come around very rarely. I have wonderful female singers in my own family, and she has always been enthusiastically praised by each and everyone of them. Brava, Ms.Bassey. You are truly among a rare breed.
I'd imagine that there were quite a few songs on Stonewall's jukebox on that, and any other of the many, night(s) they were raided. I'm not sure I understand the point you intend to make here.
Hello, Dame Shirley Bassey U have brought So much Joy, to the world..My favorite song of yours is Never,Never,Never May I be Happy, and In very good health..To U and Yours.. ps the Dar'ln here in Cali 92110(◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
HOW CAN ANYONE GIVE THIS A THUMBS DOWN ? IF I HAD TO PICK ( ONLY ONE ) FEMALE SINGER WHO IS THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME IT WOULD BE SHIRLEY BASSEY INDEED.
I feel the same, I've always tried to decide between her and Dusty Springfield. You can't really compare one to the other, they both deliver raw emotion in their unique ways, both in a league of their own.
I've got the chills I almost cried. What has happened to the music industry today!?! Shirley puts all current singers into shame.and it's sad. This performance is fantastic! 💜
Eartha Kitt and and Shirley Bassey were a pleasure to listen to via my computer from time to time but now doubt they both appreciated each others singing career.
I thought I would be the only one it made cry. It is so emotional, with very simple words. She has such a powerful moving voice. No wonder she has song the Bond theme more than any other artist.. Thank you Dame Shirley.
This incredible women has the most powerful voice ever, recently watched a documentary on her life and a concert at the BBC over 3 hours long and i was mesmerised by her just incredible
I just found this beautiful diamond of a entertainer/Singer/ beautiful/classy lady. How could I had missed out on her? I am now 64 years old. Ever since I’ve found her I listen to her every time I am listening to music on UA-cam. Thank You UA-cam!
It's 2024 and im still listening, one of my favorite
No other Welsh singers like Shirley and Tom they both fantastic and well loved by millions...
I could listen to Dame Shirley forever. The best and one and only.
One of the greatest entertainers ever.
Who else is still listening to the Great Dame in 2020? 2021? 2022? 2023? 2024?
Me. Today. 08MAY2019. Wonderful.
EVERYONE SHOULD BE! THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC. THIS IS MY LIFE!
I am!

The best female singer in the world 🌍🎉❤
In a world full of Adele's, Carey's and Swifts. Just listen and marvel to the incomparable Miss Bassey.
I never heard Taylor ding !💁 Ok pompous for me !💃
And that ladies and gentlemen is exactly how a true superstar shines

Just learned this song was actually on the Stonewall Inn jukebox the night it was raided in 1969 - so Happy Pride 50
I'd imagine that there were quite a few songs on Stonewall's jukebox on that, and any other of the many, night(s) they were raided. I'm not sure I understand the point you intend to make here.
@@siddiqahmad5193 Thanks - do you get paid to troll listening to Shirley Bassey songs? That seems rather "busy"
@@siddiqahmad5193 I do. "This is my life. "And I'm gonna live it the way I want to and the way I am. O, I do understand. And proud of it.
@@siddiqahmad5193 I think they're saying this perfect pride song-- self liberation-- was being played at Stonewall, ground zero for LGBT rights.
Christopher Ducra thanks. That actually is amazing to know!
This song & Dame Shirley’s delivery style of it is a perfect example of how music can turn depressed emotions into a positive vibration
😘
You are somptueuse ....
Listen alcione
Don't also forget this great orchestra who accompany Shirley so masterfully!
AUGUST 2021 , never heard this song and listened to it 50 times. It speaks to my life now ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾‼️‼️‼️
