I actually saw shirley in this dress at Batley Variety Club in Yorkshire when I was 17 in 1974. It was the first time I had seen a big star perform and I have been a fan ever since. I have seen her so many times over the years. Artists like this just don't appear on the music scene anymore.
In my opinion this is even better than the wonderful Judy Garland's version from the movie Babe in Arms.(which is saying ALOT,since Judy was so brillant at everything she sang)Dame Shirley is amazing. Thank you for this post Jonas! This is my favorite performance of this song by our lovely Dame. She is really rocking it! I love this!
I love the 1998 performance of Johnny One Note and it defintely needs to be posted. And in that rendition of that song her vocals are totally out of this world! No one can sing Johnny One Note like Shirley Bassey!
It would be already posted if i had it in my collection.
So I hope that Scot will post this fantastic performance (the 1998 live version of History Repeating and Yesterday when i was young are fabulous, too.).
When she performs, and it isn't just singing, it is a performance, when she performs Excuse Me, it is heart rending.

Did absolutely no one speak of the lucky guy that got to give her a kiss?

@lydee09 Johnny One Note? I agree. This is probably her most electrifying rendition of it EVER!
