@cherron1994 Because she did not sing a Bond theme for the last 32 years although her voice is as strong as ever and she produced perfect bondesque material throughout these 32 years. Instead they let Alicia Keys do a Bond song -.-
probably one of the best, British adverts. Twiggy, Dame Shirley Bassey, oozing with fashion and of course a twist on a james bond film. cant get more British than that.
A classic British TV advert. Style. Class. And Dame Shirley Bassey! M and S were honoured by her presence! Her version of the song is very good - but check out the original as well!
Some great posts here which underline a superb life's work which only keeps getting better (as only a pure classic of utter quality can do!) Absolute respect to Dame Shirley, a multiple Icon (take your pick!)In an age when competence is sold to us as brilliance, she is The Genuine Article. A true Legend!
the one who throws the red bra the one with brown frizzy hair is noemie lenioir and if you think she has had her hair all cut off if u see her in the new ad it is cause she shaved off all her hair to play in rush hour 3
A true Brit yes, But She is Welsh through and through. I think she's great, and the new album is very good, 3 songs i do not like on it, but the rest are brilliant.been i my car for about 2 onths now.
Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some 1960's chart topping stars: Shirley Bassey, Lonnie Donegan, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Cliff Richard, and Billy Furry.
dudes, get a grip! this is life for us (touch of sarcasim) and by the way, 'uk' is mascaline not feminine. the whole commonwealth is perhaps, but not the singular. (i.e coutries) thank you and goodnight.
I started to disagree, but I really don't have a sense of "how the UK treats her classic artists" against which to compare. I would offer this: my observation is that class in general is often overlooked and sometimes forgotten in favor of eye-candy when it comes to singers here in the U.S.
I wish that the US respected its classic artists as much as the UK does. This sounds AWESOME, and the Dame should release it as a single. Don't get me started about remixes!!! Shapeshifters, anyone?
This is a great advert and version of pinks get the party started. why doesnt shirley release this as a b track on the much awaited Living Tree single? I think she is missing a trick here.
The world best commercial and Dame Shirley was great with her song...

It's originally by Pink - it was written by Linda Perry for Pink's 2002 album Missundaztood. Shirley Bassey put her spin on it in 2006.
