This is written and sung by Charles Aznavour. Rarely can anyone do it equal to or better than Charles. She's nailed it. Its extremely moving and intense.
Yesterday when I was young The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue I teased at life as if it were a foolish game The way the evening breeze may tease the candle flame A thousand dreams I dreamed, The splendid things I planned I always built alas on weak and shifting sand I lived by night and shunned, the naked light of day And only now I see, how the years ran away Yesterday, when I was young So many lovely songs were waiting to be sung So many wayward, pleasures lay in store for me And so much pain, my dazzled eyes refused to see I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out I never stopped to think what life was all about And every conversation, I can now recall Concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all Yesterday, the moon was blue And every crazy day, brought something new to do I used my magic age, as if it were a wand That never saw the waste, and emptiness beyond The game of love I played, with arrogance and pride And every flame I lit too quickly quickly died The friends I made all seemed, somehow drift away And only I am left, on stage to end the play There are so many songs in me that won't be sung I feel the bitter taste, of tears upon my tongue The time has come for me to pay For yesterday.... when I was young.....
Shirley Bassey é a única artista que gravou esta música para executá-la do jeito que ela faz. O impacto dramático para os ouvintes é inegável. É lamentável, mas muitos pensam que Shirley canta todas as músicas do jeito que ela executa esta. Mas, se você ouvir imparcialmente apenas uma pequena amostra do que eu carreguei, verá que Shirley Bassey é o pacote vocal completo. Atenciosamente, Scot
You don't my sister's laugh at couple dand I called one of them.They say back From. The dead You know it is Sad When you don't realize you in the world. It's like everything disappear. When you sick sick as I was. That is why you give your life to Jesus and yet take care of you. Oh, you gotta do as half 8. Even though at times I thought I was leaving this world and that's a testimony.Can.Can anybody give me a testimony just one👸🏽
La stella che.brilla di. Più...nel canto❤
Can you imagine being in that studio with this amazing woman, the power, strength and resilience of her I love her
Powerful voice but so sweet to hear........
I have seen Barbra Streisand in a live concert. My other dream was to see Shirley Bassey. Maybe we had all her LP’s played by my father all morning.
The friends I made or seen somehow drift away, only i am left om stage to end the play...beautiful
❤ now, and for ever ilike it ,thank u 😊

I find her version too jarring. Aznavour’s version is so much smoother and subtle.
Yesterday, when She was young. And today, when She already not too Young. And I still love Her. M❤
That goes deep...very deep
Tears in my eyes ...
Love her VOICE❣Love it in this song. Thank You!
For me: She is the Best
Perfect ❤❤❤
Listened to this when I was young, and I am still listening to it. Classic ! ❤
Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
The way the evening breeze may tease the candle flame
A thousand dreams I dreamed, The splendid things I planned
I always built alas on weak and shifting sand
I lived by night and shunned, the naked light of day
And only now I see, how the years ran away
Yesterday, when I was young
So many lovely songs were waiting to be sung
So many wayward, pleasures lay in store for me
And so much pain, my dazzled eyes refused to see
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out
I never stopped to think what life was all about
And every conversation, I can now recall
Concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all
Yesterday, the moon was blue
And every crazy day, brought something new to do
I used my magic age, as if it were a wand
That never saw the waste, and emptiness beyond
The game of love I played, with arrogance and pride
And every flame I lit too quickly quickly died
The friends I made all seemed, somehow drift away
And only I am left, on stage to end the play
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
I feel the bitter taste, of tears upon my tongue
The time has come for me to pay
For yesterday....
when I was young.....
I love her , absolutely amazing 💕
