An incomparable singer. Just superb, singing a beautiful song.

In my opinion the best British vocalist of all time. Effortless but hugely powerful rendition of a timeless classic.

This gold voice!! utube smile by john bavas

A classic example of acting while singing. Beautiful performance.

Im a heavy hip hop head. Respect to this lady and her...WOW VOICE

That is singing, that is music. Bravo.

Truly, one of the great singers. I don’t think anybody had the volume, an absolute control that Shirley Bassey had absolutely a class act an unbelievable talent.

BRAVO DAME SHIRLEY...BRAVO 👏🏻 I SWEAR THIS WOMAN IS THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER/PERFORMER EVER, EVER, EVER!!!!!!

unbelievable perfection. doesn't get any better than this. saw her in concert a couple of times

Extraordinary range, power...and finesse.

She makes every song her own and interesting. That's a great singer.

My favorite talent out of Wales. Incredible!

Music of my life! Shirley Bassey, Frank Sinatra, Paul Weston, Kathryn Grayson...wonderful. It Happened in Brooklyn. Puts...

Shirley what can I say other than thank you for another class rendition of a great song thank you

The greatest female popular singer of all time.

I have always admired her vocal attack. When she sings 'Time....' after the middle eight it is laser accurate and sung by someone who has complete confidence in her voice. An utterly unique performer and I am so glad I have been able to experience her singing live so many times and seen so many performances on TV

Great days when performances like this was on the telly box.

Singers47 - It's too bad that so many people from our country think mainly that Bassey = Bond, but little by little, KZread is great because it helps to get the news out. Once someone stumbles on one of the 700+ songs she has recorded, a good majority of them become hooked. Shirley has sold most of her 140 million records, world wide, from LPs/CDs, not singles. Most who know of Shirley Bassey, do recognize her because of her powerful VOICE. Simply, she is the VOICE, of XXX generations!

SOUNDS LIKE ME 😊 I ACCIDENTALLY FOUND OUT ABOUT DAME SHIRLEY THIS PAST MARCH! I WAS ON UTUBE TRYING TO FIND OUT MORE INFO ON THE HANDSOME MAN (JACK JONES) I HAD JUST WATCHED ON SUPER OLD EPISODE OF THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW! AND THE FIRST VIDEO THAT POPPED UP WAS DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY AND JACK JONES SINGING "IF"... I WAS LIKE, OHHH MYYY GODDDD... WHO IS THE AMAZING WOMAN? WHAT IS THE COMEDY SHOW?:HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD ANY OF THESE MINDBLOWING SONGS OR THIS THING ABOUT THIS FABULOUS WOMAN!!! NEXT VIDEO (AFTER DOING A SEARCH FOR JUST HER NAME) WAS A PERFORMANCE FROM GERMANY (87?) OF" BORN TO LOSE" AND I LITERALLY CRIED FOR MANY MANY HOURS AFTER WATCHING IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN (FINALLY FOUND THE WHOLE CONCERT)... WATCHING HER SING BORN TO LOSE AT HER GERMAN CONCERT WAS LIFE CHANGING TO SAY THE LEAST!!!!! I LIVED ON THIS PLANET FOR 51 YEARS (3/16/1970), AND NEVER HEARD OF SHIRLEY BASSEY?!? I WENT TO A PERFORMING ARTS SCHOOL, I'VE TOURED WITH WORLD FAMOUS ARTISTS AND BANDS (BOTH AS A FAN OF MUSIC & AN EMPLOYEE) AND MY HAND TO GOD, NEVER HEARD ABOUT DAME SHIRLEY!?! OBVIOUSLY IF I HAD KNOWN ABOUT HER... I WOULD HAVE MUCH RATHER SEE HER IN CONCERT THAN THE UNTALENTED, GREEDY, ENTITLED TRASH I GOING TO SEE! I'M STILL KINDA OF BITTER WITH MY FRIENDS WHO KNEW ABOUT HER AND SAID NOTHING TO ME!!! THANK GOD I FINALLY FOUND OUT ABOUT HER. . DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY IS A TRUE GIFT AND I'M FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR FINDING OUT ABOUT HER!!! SHE'S FABULOUS . FABULOUS... FABULOUS!!!!!!!

@@mizkel4604 I am also born in 1970 on July 11. We had lots of vinyl records and cassettes at home, but never anything with Shirley Bassey. The first time I saw Shirley was on tv when I was a kid. It wasn't the real Shirley. It was Benny Hill doing his impersonations. 🤣 But those few seconds were important and are still in my mind. The first time I heard her voice was in the theme song to the Bond movie Moonraker. Adding that amazing voice to the few seconds from Benny Hill made me think that this woman must be a big star. But I can't remember ever seeing the real Shirley on tv or in the newspaper while growing up. It wasn't until I became an adult and bought a computer with access to the internet in -96 I found her. Since then I'm hooked.

Top singing with top song writing.

LOVE. THIS SONG,ONE OF MY FAVORITES🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️EVEN BETTER BEING PERFORMED BY DS. BASSEY🥂👏👑. JANUARY 19. 2020. JO-ANN. LAMONICA. ONEONTA. NEW. YORK. 🌹

Extraordinaire---

just great. shirley bassey surely does the song justice. thanks for posting this. nancy wilson does a great version also.

They look alike sisters, even twins with different setting hair. I am amazed about it.

Her alto is perfect for this song.

Entrega total na canção. Espetacular cantora e sua apresentação. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This is the way this song is supposed to be sung.

🤩Great singer great 🎼+ lyrics

the moment comes at 1:45 when Shirley goes on the high key....

Thank YOU so much for posting this rare Jewelry

Wonderful

Wonderful, thanks for posting.

Brilliant Music making !!!!

ATTENTION: Dame Shirley Bassey will be appearing at the 2013 Academy Awards Show In Hollywood on February 24th. She will perform for the 50th James Bond anniversary celebration! Wonderful News! Bassey is herself celebrating 60 (Diamond) years in Show Business, starting back in 1953.

MARAVILHOSO

Best ever.

If you're lost, you can look and find Shirley Bassey Time after time If you fall, she will lift you, she'll be singing Time after time If you're lost, you can listen and find Shirley Bassey Time after time If you're down, she will lift you, she'll be singing (she will be singing) Time after time Time after time. ; D

This was from a lovely LP she released in 1978 called `YESTERDAYS`.......reissued on CD. 2 tracks were not included and did not come out until 1994, `NATURE BOY` & `THE MAN I LOVE` .

❤️💃❤️

To be honest, I feel more unlucky to love her because she doesn't love me back

Apart from the great voice she's so damned attractive! Those flirtatious eyes - oh my!

from the great lyricist sammy cahn , this dame has put many songs out of reach of just about any other singer , goldfinger and i who have nothing comes readily to mind ,,always in my top three female vocalist of all time , that said , after listening to numerous renditions of this great song (male and female) i have no hesitation in saying miss. nancy wilson's rendition is for me , simply untouchable , but then that's just me .

Check out Metro big band version!

I have the impression that Shirley's style (face and singing) really looks alike to Vicky Carr. They both looks alike and singing voice are similar.

Vikki Carr is another one of the singer GREATS, and also another one of my favorites. Regards, Scot

she is a rare treat. She serves the song well; and the song serves her just as well in return. But when was the reverb added?Surely not during the performance?

VICKI. WHO????????DSB OWNS THIS. SONG👑👑👑👑👑👑👑JOANN. LAMONICA. ONEONTA. NEW YORK. 1/27/2020

How do we avoid confusion with Cyndi Lauper's same-titled song?

@sas9023055

I guess you would have to know that Jule Styne and Sammy Cahn are listed as the songwriters, and Cyndi Lauper wrote her song of the same name. This is why I listed Styne and Cahn in the title. This song that Shirley is performing was written back in 1947, before Lauper was born, and it was introduced by Frank Sinatra (and subsequently by Kathryn Grayson) in the film "It Happened in Brooklyn". Styne and Cahn are two of two of most influencial songwriters of the mid-20th century.
