Music video for Get The Party Started by Dame Shirley Bassey. This incredible recording can be found on the Get The Party Started album, which is out now. A new single with some fabulous dance mixes by NorthxNWest, Flip N Fill and Fugitive, as well as this music video is now also available.
Get The Party Started was produced by Catherine Feeney, Nikki Lamborn (Never The Bride), Bob Kraushaar and Chuck Norman (NorthxNWest) with backing vocals by Rietta Austin, Margo Buchanan, Nikki Lamborn and Catherine Feeney. The music video was produced by Hera King and directed by Harvey and Carolyn (Crossroads Films).
This song was written by Linda Perry and originally recorded by Pink. Shirley sang it for the M&S Christmas TV ad, filmed in a spy movie style, and featured models Lizzy Jagger, Erin O'Connor, Laura Bailey, Noemie Lenoir and Twiggy as undercover agents on a secret mission to attend an exclusive DSB performance at a glamorous Christmas party.
It's difficult to know where to begin when it comes to describing Dame Shirley's incredible career which has spanned over 50 years. Having just celebrated her 70th birthday and a top ten UK album DSB proves age is no barrier for creating great music.
The original Welsh Diva and one of Wales' greatest musical exports, she stands tall alongside fellow Welsh singers Charlotte Church, Katherine Jenkins, Tom Jones, Cerys Matthews, Dorothy Squires, Bryn Terfel and Bonnie Tyler to name but a few.
During her career Shirley has also collaborated with Swiss band Yello on The Rhythm Divine. She sang with Chris Rea on his Ferrari inspired film, La Passione, and probably most famously with The Propellerheads whose international club hit History Repeating propelled her into the spotlight. It featured on the soundtrack to the movie There's Something About Mary starring Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz and was the music behind a Jaguar car ad.
Shirley is the only singer to have recorded more than one James Bond Theme. She recorded three! Applauded by John Barry, Sean Connery and David Arnold, her hit records Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever ranked as the two best Bond themes ever in a recent poll, where she comfortably beat fellow Bond singers such as Tina Turner, Madonna, Paul McCartney, Matt Monro, Gladys Knight, Sheryl Crow, Lulu and Sheena Easton to the top spots. Casino Royale star Daniel Craig recently suggested DSB should record the next theme - after hearing The Living Tree you can't help but see he's got a point!
In recent years Shirley's recording of Diamonds Are Forever was sampled by hip-hop star Kanye West.
DSB has performed duets with acts such as Neil Diamond, Andy Williams, Alain Delon, Michael Ball, Bryn Terfel, Charles Aznavour, Jack Jones, Robert Goulet and Eydie Gorme and shared a stage with Ray Charles and Liza Minnelli on a successful tour.
In an episode of American Idol (the US equivalent to The X-Factor) contestants Jordin Sparks, Lakisha Jones and Melinda Doolittle all chose Shirley Bassey hits to impress judges Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul. Chris Sligh said "Shirley Bassey rocks hard core" and presenter Ryan Seacrest proclaimed that it was Dame Shirley Bassey songs that ruled the night.
She makes it sound like a lost Bond theme. These sounds so awesome
She sang several Bond themes.
Al comenzar a oírla me llevó directamente a los temas de 007 por el acompañamiento orquestal.
It really should've been...
That's the same exact thing I thought. She's so James Bond-y! 😁
@@Ckawauchi35 she sang the theme song for Goldfinger
This version sounds like something you'd hear in a James Bond movie!
It is so James Bond
Jackie McCann It should. Shirley Bassey performed two James Bond themes in the 1960's and 1970's.
who is the 1st sing this song? shirley or Pink ?
alvin wijaya pink
this is from cats vs dogs the movie but it would come from a james bond movie
I love it when artists cover a song you'd never think would be their thing and completely own it.
Johnny Cash, "Hurt".
Own it? She grabbed it by the cojones and milked it! Pink who?
Imagine being able to sing like this at at 70 years of age. Shirley's voice is amazing.
Yes, and she'll be 87 in a week. That's pretty phenomenal too!
A true Legend 👍🏻
Even Pink prefers this version lol.....I'd pay to hear Shirley sing the phonebook
Donny Hathaway what was her reaction?
RIGHT !!! Makes want to go get songs from lesser artist and say hey Ms. Bassy sassy this one lol!!!
@@a-aron2751 Look up Pink react to fan covers .
So would I. Love Shirley Bassey! Her sound is so iconic and epic. You'd never mistake her for anyone else.
It's like Johnny Cash covering Hurt. Some people are so legendary they make any song their own.
I hope P!nk realizes what an honor and a privilege it is to have her song covered by Shirley Bassey. Even watching her now 2022 in her mid 80s taking the stage to sing Goldfinger, it just gives you chills.
Wait. I thought Pink covered the song not the other way around
In the Glamour video titled "Pink Watches Fan Covers On UA-cam" she said it's her "favorite version ever".
@@mr.movieandtvguy5310 Nope. Pink's song is from 2001, the cover sung by Dame Shirley Bassey is from 2007.
@@SirioNovilunium Interesting. I guess you do learn things everyday don't you?
@@mr.movieandtvguy5310 Yes. I personally think learning new things is one of the most interesting aspects of life.
"This should be in a James Bond/Spy movie"
*Ahem; "Cats and Dogs"*
Dame Shirley Bassey is The only one singer who had sung title songs in three 007 movies: Goldfinger, Diamonds are forever & Moonraker
@@maximslantzev7400 Yeah, people only say it sounds like it should be in a Bond film because Shirley Bassey's sound and the Bond films have become so intertwined. Her Bond themes are so iconic that all Bond songs tend to lean towards the Shirley Bassey style. So, all of her songs end up sounding like Bond themes to a degree 'cause she basically is the voice of the Bond films! Love her! 😊
Revenge of citty glore
no
Yeah I agree!
Not only does she sing great, but she looks fantastic.
I've always loved this song. But man, Shirley Bassey made it her own! And I love the whole 60s James Bond thing. And she was 70 when she did this? She looks and sounds fierce! Take a lesson, young singers. When you can nail a song like this at her age, THEN you're a legend!
Bob on!
Real shit though. And not just a legend, a Diva.
Jon Thomas agree!
Jon Thomas True, but age has nothing to do with music. Generally, you are looking at her techniques while singing.
She's 70?!
Pink's version was more "in your face" and sweaty...the kind of song that makes you move till you sweat on the dance floor.
Shirley's version is more polished and sophisticated
The best version depends on your perceptions. Different strokes for different folks!
PS: Shirley was 70 when she recorded this video and she was looking like a stone cold *FOX* (like the old people say...lol.)
I thought she was 50........well when I first saw this
+G- Time nope she's born January 8 1937
The song is the shirley bassey ... not version...
LadySoul502 sing it... Wouldn't surprise me if my mum's family helped her in all respects, as a "Wiener Head" / Habsburg (the young lad holding the falcon at start)/British-Scottish-French and Russian aristocrat who knows north of 20 languages, can school most American doctors in many areas of health, as well as the lawyers lol, so, I'm not ashamed of my heritage. I normally NEVER comment on these, but, I AGREE#
Pinks version is a screamer, but fi you want a song to have "Diva" written all over it, it's GOT to be Shirley Bassey!
I’m here because of Cats & Dogs 2
X2
I'm here because Dame Shirley. 😊
I’m here for the same reason
Me too, what memories :(
Rush Hour and the KND International
I really don't know why everyone seems surprised at this performance! If you've been a Shirley fan like I have for 60 years and counting you'd know this lady is capable of anything! And in a career of 66 years she's proved it time and time again. Phenomenal.
60 years? Wow
It was cute! No disrespect to Ms. Bassey because I love her body of work. But she only has style of singing that comes across when I hear hear her, Pop, rock, Rhythm and blues is not it. But as fan and people like yourself, and other people like me who is open to all styles and sounds of music would only appreciate the effort. There is only one Diva! God rest her soul, that was able to do it all and capture all generations of fans despite her horrific addiction that messed with her voice over the years and tragic murder by the powers that be, is Ms. Whitney Houston. Like her or not! Respect her or not, deny it, or agree with me! No one could never take that from her until the next one comes along in the future.
Have you heard her "history repeating" with Propeller Heads
Some of us aren’t that old 🤷🏻♀️
@@MissStephy100 okay? I knew her since I was 6 and I was born in 87, that’s not an excuse
About time they let Shirley sing another bond theme! Let's face it she is the sound of Bond.
So true!
No truer words were ever spoken. My compliments.
And to this day, Goldfinger remains my favourite official Bond song.
jamiegrifter yup
She is Bond royalty, the undisputed Queen!!!
And she is still killing it in her 80s! She needs to do another bond song!
I like how she kind of cracks up when she says "you'll be kissing my ass" at 2:01.
My favorite part
She says "Glass"
@@eduardonascimento4 no she doesn't
@@eduardonascimento4 shes saying ass
She's saying arse as any Brit would!
*Only someone as classy as Dame Shirley Bassey can make a line like "kissing my ass" sound classy...!!!*
LoL 🤣
I love how she’s giggling at that part 😊
Sounds like a James Bond villan song! It's 2023 baby 🥂🥂🥂🥂
How about Cats & Dogs The Revenge of Kitty Galore?
This looks like Bob Fosse choreographed a James Bond opening. Sounds like a Bond song too. Shirley Bassey is amazing
I feel ashamed that after 12 years I'm knowing this beautiful cover!! damn!! Shirley sings beautiful she's a diva!! love it!!! the arranging was excellent!
I add it more 2 years then.
This is awesome cover.
Just found this is 2022. Better late than never.
I know right!
I'm hearing it for the first time in 2023.
What can I say... Dame Shirley Bassey. She is amazing! Neat choreography. Love it! Ah! those dancers! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Plus the dresses and suits!
Who's listening this in 2024?
I am and since 2008 :)
Pink reacted to this!
Really?
Prince Pepper Yeah!
+Prince Pepper Yep! Last song on this link ua-cam.com/video/jWb4T5R6Z_E/v-deo.html
Yeah!.Its basically the main reason why Im here.Love You Gaga.
Shirley Bassey's career is going to blow up as a result of Pink's reaction!
Awesome: that´s how a REAL diva should look and sound at her 70th birthday. Dame Shirley ROCKS :-)
lzclaudio1 True dat.
Yesssss!
Damn it Shirley ! This works and that voice!!!
Love that they used this to do a james bond style intro for cats and dogs 2. Made the movie even better.
''CATS AND DOGS: THE REVENGE OF KITTY GALORE'' BROUGHT ME HERE
TERRELL TURNER SAME😂
xddd
SAME 😂😂😂
TERRELL TURNER same dude i love that film
Saw that movie years ago
She was cute how she looked so coy when singing the word 'ass' at 2:02
Classy Bassey.
Dame Shirley Bassey - class all the way and such an iconic voice
Yeah😁😁❤❤
Love the powerful n energic voice of Pink sang this song, but Shirley is different Bond’s way ❤❤❤❤ love both version ❤🎉
Am I the only one who remembers this at the beginning of the one Cats & Dogs movie?
Literally came here because my nieces and nephews are watching it on repeat lol
I remember that and it was pretty awesome
Count me.
Your not Alone I remember that too
I've watch (AGAIN) the movie this afternoon so... Yeah I remember pretty good lol
And yes, I love this movie :)
This could be a disney vilain song.
More like an opening title of a bond film.
Ursula
Ursula, maleficent, evil queen, and cruella would be like a killer team up with this song
"My name is Bond, James Bond"...
@@sampickford6286 : Can I add MOTHER GOTHEL (Tangled) to this list? 'Cause she can SING. #LoveMeSomeDisneyBadDames #SquadGoals
Dame Shirley Bassey has the Golden Touch. Any song she covers becomes a Bond Villain classic.
She is a freak of nature. The Voice is like liquid gold. Her mature poise. She breathes life into her performances.
She sounds like and looks like she could be a Bond Girl right now!What a Woman!
She sung 3 themes. So she has the sound down pat.
Shirley is untouchable
Espetacularlindoumamulhetfortebeatigul
The Bond theme we never knew we needed.
Amazing P!nk Cover
Wow!I actually like it better than the original. Has that James Bond flavor to it.Sounds jazzy & romantic. And oh,that voice -powerful! Dame Shirley Bassey forever. Respect darling!
This is a fantastic cover, but I think what I love the most is that she is obviously having a wonderful time doing it. :) As a side note, it's nice to see men used in a synchronized floor routine (as opposed to the usual scantly clad women), and the choregraphy and visuals are equally classy and well executed.
This is not a cover
@@manipulator4535 It is
@@LittleLoz P!nk Did The Cover Not Shirley Bassey
@@manipulator4535 Pink sang and released it first.
A simple Google search would have told you this
@@manipulator4535 Pink released this in 2001
Shirley Bassey. 2007
This is perfect for the next Cruella film!!🖤🖤🖤🖤
Exactly what this song needed - not the amazing vocals, but the eyes wide shut backup dancers.
2020 and I still haven’t got the party started😂
LoL
Same tho
Has ANYbody in 2020 gotten the party started?
Gypsy Woman maybe the elite people in power who are abusing a bad situation to their advantage
Ezra Izrael ..lol
sounds like a secret agent song and your going undercover in a maskerade ball where the enemy is located
Rachel Flores hahahahaha
I believe this is James Bond inspired, so you are technically right :D
oh yes, i thought exactly the same, HOW COOL!
Me too cause of that James bond feel and background music
Sounds like a James Bond movie theme song.
15 years ago why am I just finding this song now😳😳😳😩😩😩😄😄🥂🥂🎉🎉💥💥
The fabulous Miss Shirley Bassey ❤❤❤
What a lady, what an amazing performer. This song is perfect for her. I'm priveliged I got to kiss the hand of this great lady during a concert at Blackpool Opera House in the year 2000, she also gave me a carnation. A lovely lady.
I want to hear her with Tom Jones.
I think dame Shirley Bassey's idea of a 'party' is somewhat different to Pink's idea of a party lol
Iain Bailey not these days. Pink is more conservative. She's a mom, after all. That changes things.
Agreed - in fact, whereas the Mercedes-Benz the song references might be fine for Pink, you’d expect Dame Shirley to roll up in the back of a Rolls, tbh
I think this is a great song for Pink, but somewhat beneath Shirley, somehow
If Bassey's party involves champagne and caviar with a dose of plots and cunning alliances behind velvet curtains... sign me up.
True not even fat ugly pink I've got fungi pink could be as big a fraud as shirley I hate children bag of suite bassey
I’d say so too lol! Amazing Shirley is a legend.
Just pure joy , the ultimate woman & enjoying life, brilliant 😂❤
I love this woman so much. Spent all of the 60s and 70s not liking her because my father considered her ‘pop music’ and ridiculed everything she did.
But when she did ‘All The Sad Young Men’ I cried buckets and couldn’t deny her any longer.
You absolutely rock, Dame Shirley, and you outsing this daft pop song by a million starry miles.
I’m SO glad you got to revive Goldfinger for the Bond anniversary.
Good bless you, you gorgeous woman…😍
_Ballad Of The Sad Young Men_ is also one of my all-time favs!!!
... It's pure brilliance how she brings out every emotion in those powerful lyrics to create a truly poignant masterpiece!
👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽
Both the Pink version and this version are awesome
Pink goes down in a ball of flames compared to this masterpiece
Fitting that this sound like a James Bond theme - Dame Shirley Bassey performed the Bond themes for three 007 movies in the 1960's and 1970's - GOLDFINGER, DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER and MOONRAKER.
I'm not sure what I was expecting, I guess just a Shirley Bassey song, but the fact that it's a Pink cover got me off guard.
She can literally do no wrong. What a voice. What class. Amazing
P!nk: wow Shirley Bassey is doing my song!
Shirley Bassey: that's my song now, girl
YOU WISH! THIS IS SHIT! PINK’S ORIGINAL VERSION IS SUPERIOR ❤️🐷
@@BossGokaiGreen Seriously why are you here if you don't like it?
@@BossGokaiGreen Nope 🤭
Sorry, but this is definitely P!NK's song.
Not to say, I don't mind this. Its' weird, but intriguing..
@@Cal90208 AGREED. ANYONE WHO THINKS THIS CRAP IS BETTER THAN PINK’S ORIGINAL VERSION NEEDS TO GET THEIR EARS CHECKED. NOT TO MENTION, THEY HAVE 💩 FOR TASTE. 🍼🐷🇯🇵
I can't believe she did a cover of this. But that voice is GAWDLY! I love her voice in this song!
The quintessential DIVA Shirley Bassey!
Shirley has always been badass!
This song sounds like ive just been captured by my main villain and now they've tied me up so that they can make me watch their rehearsed musical number (and of course I mean this in a loving way)
My Saturday party started last week as my 47th birthday party 🤭 thanks my gorgeous Dame Shirley Bassey. ❤️
That was totally enjoyable! Woo Hoo Dame Shirley!!
That's true. But with this great voice not one else can singing better than she do It. For that reason is the diva with more tienes of James Bond saga! Beautyfull and power voice Meme Shirley Bassaey always!😅
Dame Shirley Bassey is timeless.
Indeed!!
I read this as "damn, Shirley Bassey is timeless" which works too
Bassey, baby . . . Bassey all the way!
I love this R mix, but I also love the original song too
WOW, MS. Bassey, what a woman...3 Bond songs to her credit!
Both the Pink version and this version are awesome
Dame Shirley Bassey is timeless.
FABULOUS
She is amazing
This is freaking fantastic. Reminds me of the song she did with PropellerHeads. Loved that too. Her powerful controlled vocals mixed with music that you'd think would clash in style, surprisingly are beautifully complimentary.
DSB her sound, quality, pure and true the one and only DSB ❤️❤️ 🙏🏼
I LOVE that song "History Repeating!"
I love that I grew up with both these due to growing up listening to P!NK **and** watching Cats & Dogs
I never appreciated this version when I heard it as a teen. Now, I'm digging it.
Shirley is having a lot of fun in this video.
Shirley has such a strong, beautiful voice that I would be able to identify immediately. Such enormous power. She is one of my favorite artists of all time
Shirley is phenomenal. I’ve been a fan for gotta say 40 years and I have seen her in concert many many many many times.
We need a new tradition of turning pop songs in to epic James Bondesque masterpieces
Love the part where she can't stop laughing on"you'll be kissing my arse". Great version & yes, very bond-like.
Love a lot of Pink’s music, and her music is part of my generation. But this song comes alive with Dame Bassey in a way it never did before.
Goldfinger lady with a Pink song? This is the mashup I never knew I needed!
Whos listening in 2020?
It makes my spirits lift to imagine close friends gathering in celebration after this COVID pandemic!🤗
I am listening to this in September 2020.
Regina Cummings me too
I like this it could be another james bond movie song.✌🏿🔥💃🏽
Yes
October 15th
Aspiring pop stars, take note of Dame Shirley’s use of her voice. Control and restraint. Not every word in a song deserves a high note, - this is not vocal olympics.
also not vibratos everywhere
@@alltheserobotsshallfall Agree
You can hear this a lot in Lady Gaga's voice when she does her more operatic performances (like the sound of music, or her Tony Bennett album)
A pop artist shouldn't take notes from a classical vocalist because they are entirely different styles of singing, even a classically trained artist would not incorporate their classical style into pop, but go off.
@@emberblack8706 Also, a big influence on pop music is American Idol. Every contestant is trying to emulate Aretha, Whitney, Mariah, among others. The result is uncontrollable wailing singers and bad R & B.
Pop and classical put together is such a great combination.
Shirley Bassey a global superstar that recorded three James Bond theme tunes...Legend ❤️
A "Real True" Diva.....Dame Shirley Bassey...
The Best of the Best !!!!!
Bob &Robby ~ Cole &Parker
My God... what a voice! A real Diva! What a performance and stage posture! Simply divine!
She is the epitome of a classy woman. Wow! Gorgeous.
james bond vibes..this is the best feeling ever!
A true Diva. Pure class!
If i was a singer this one i would like to be. Amazing, fantastic,one of the kind Shirley Bassey. We are all lucky to have her.
Sharon is laughing while the Auditions roll
I low-key hate how I only know this song because of X Factor
@@morbidsearch I know this song because of Veronica Green
i am thinking of it ..i totally agree!!
I never liked this song until I heard this version, which is brilliant. I love this.
The original one is good but Shirley took it to another level. So powerful, vibrant and graceful♥️🎙️💃
Agreed, one million percent!
This is as good as it gets. Shirley Bassey is unique. She started her career way back in the fifties and is still enthralling her vast following of fans in all age groups.
Thumbs up of you're watching in 2015!
But seriously, who DOESN'T like this song??
LOL XD
+Darius Sajid Been a fan since the 70s but my age doesn't matter when Ms. Bassey proves time is in your head....
Unreal. Bassey should do the song for Bond 25.
I totally agree :D
+Daniel Chapman yea
fantastic the music 🎶
felicidades por la música
🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠👍👍👍👍👍👍
Powerful Vocal, Body and Appearance. Dame Shirley Bassey is timeless and greatest entertainer of all time!GOTHIC theme is excellent choice adding unique vibes to it.
at her age singing this song, it's a wow!
beautyconcious her age? At any age.
at her age?!?! what's age got to do with it, she's awesome regardless of her age!
@@muziklvrnfl2835 she was almost 70 I think.
It’s Shirley Bassey, she’s timeless at any age.
@@notthefather3919 she was born in 1937
Once an Icon always an Icon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this version so much very James Bond simply fantastic
I was going through a bad time 15 years ago, and this performance was such a wonderful escapist listen. Now in 2023, I'm happier in every dimension of my life and it's good to go back to pay homage to this ELECTRIC woman and her voice.
I don't know why, but the style of this cover reminds me of the theme song for a James Bond movie.
probably because she sang two of them
Nunya Bizniz
Three
It was the intention.
They actually did a Bond type intro with this song for a movie called cats and dogs. They even had the the kaleidoscope effect with the cats in the background.
um....because she sang several theme songs for bond movies maybe?
Shirley Bassey's music never dies. 🥹 Did you know that this song from Shirley Bassey originally sang it before P!nk covered it 22 years later?
?? That's not true
I believe she could sing happy birthday to you and make it sound like a bond anthem.
I love this ... especially when she laughs as she says "ass"
