  • 1971 - Shirley Bassey recorded this wonderful song titled, 'I Don't Know How To Love Him' in 1971, which was one year after it was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice for the musical, "Jesus Christ Superstar". Weather sung as part of the musical or as a love song, this is a great piece of musical writing by young Webber & Rice team. Shirley Bassey's rendition is beautifully sung. This track was included on Shirley's 1971 LP titled, 'And I Love You So'.
    ABOUT the LP, And I Love You So:
    And I Love You So is a 1972 album by Shirley Bassey. Released late in 1972 to positive reviews, this was Bassey's fourth album of the decade and was one of the albums which comprised her 'comeback' period of the 1970s. Unlike the earlier albums, this didn't feature any hit singles and consequently didn't fare as well as the previous three. It made No.24, and remained on the chart for 9 weeks, reaching its peak on Christmas week, resulting in higher than average sales. Singles released were "And I Love You So" (a cover of the Don McLean hit) and "The Ballad of the Sad Young Men", although the CD liner notes considers tracks "If We Only Have Love" and "The Way of Love" to be stronger single choices. The title track did however become a UK top three hit some months later for Perry Como.
    The original release was in stereo on vinyl and cassette. This album was re-issued on CD in 2000 with two bonus tracks: "If I Should Love Again" (previously only released as a B-side to "The Ballad of the Sad Young Men") and "Let Me Be the One", which was unreleased until 1994. The album was re-released again in a double pack with previous album I Capricorn in November 2010.
    LYRICS:
    I don't know how to love him
    What to do, how to move him?
    I've been changed, yes, really changed
    In these past few days, when I see myself
    I seem like someone else
    I don't know how to take this
    I don't see why he moves me
    He's a man, he's just a man
    And I've had so many men before
    In very many ways, he's just one more
    Should I bring him down?
    Should I scream and shout?
    Should I speak of love, let my feelings out?
    I never thought I'd come to this
    What's it all about?
    Don't you think it's rather funny
    That I should be in this position?
    I'm the one who's always been running every show
    He scares me so
    I never thought I'd come to this
    What's it all about?
    What's it all about?
    Yet, if he said he loved me
    I'd be lost, I'd be frightened
    I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
    I'd turn my head, I'd back away
    I wouldn't want to know, he scares me so
    I want him so, I love him so
    Special Thanks to Pieter, Astrid and others from the Shirley Bassey blog, Tal from the Diamond Bassey website, and all those who have contributed wonderful pictures of Shirley!

    The first time I heard this song I thought "how in the world did nobody fix that clumsy 'in very many ways' lyric to read 'in oh so many ways'?". Obviously someone picked up on it pretty quickly since Sassy Bassey waxed it the right way in '71. Oh and this song - regardless of the singer - has one of THE GREAT middle eights ever.

      Dame Shirley Bassey will turn 84 yo this Friday, January 8th. She just released a new album in November. Her voice has aged like fine wine. This classical POP vocalist still has one of the finest voices in the business, in my humble opinion. See her recording of 'Adagio'. The last few notes will bring chills down you spine! Yes, her pitch has changed over the last 7 decades, which is expected for someone in their 80's, but her amazing abilities to hit incredible high fidelity notes as well as soothing lower notes is still there!

    What a great singer! Her rendition is different. It's a studio recording, not a Broadway dramatic piece. Two different styles. There's no better studio recording. Elaine Page's is certainly also special. What's not to like about any of those? No existing performance highlights better vocal quality combined with control than Shirley Bassey's. IMO.

    Eu não sei como amá-LO
    O que fazer, como mexer com ELE
    Eu mudei sim, mudei mesmo
    Nestes últimos dias, quando olho para mim
    Vejo outra pessoa
    Não sei o que pensar disto
    Não sei por que é que ELE mexe comigo
    ELE é um homem
    ELE é apenas um homem
    E já tive tantos homens antes
    E de tantas modos
    ELE é só mais um
    Será que eu deveria destruí-LO?
    Será que eu deveria gritar?
    Será que eu deveria falar de amor?
    Mostrar os meus sentimentos?
    Nunca pensei que chegaria a isto.
    O que está a acontecer?
    Não achas engraçado
    Eu estar nesta situação?
    Eu sou aquela que sempre fui
    Tão calma, tão sensata, nunca se apaixonou
    Sempre por cima
    ELE assusta-me tanto
    Nunca pensei que chegaria a isto
    O que está a acontecer?
    Mas, se ELE dissesse que me amava
    Eu ficaria perdida
    Eu ficaria assustada
    Eu não iria aguentar, não iria aguentar
    Eu descontrolava-me
    Eu me afastaria
    Não queria saber
    ELE me assusta tanto
    Eu quero-O tanto
    Eu amo-O tanto
