[Maridianokusho]

Echt mal, da wär' ich auch aufgestanden..!

[Maridianokusho]

GREAT!!!

[graciemaemarie11]

moonraker the most beautiful song i ever heard

moonraker the most beautiful song ever

[jackbestill]

My two favorite bond themes are Moonraker and You Only Live Twice, both impossibly romantic due to Barry's genius (plus great lyricists, of course). Then come the boom-boom songs - Goldfinger, Thunderball and Diamonds are Forever. All Barry again. And here, i am delivered an impossibly-delicious sandwich made to order, thanks to the only singer who could have made it a triple-B rush - Bassey. What a treat! i deserve to be in the audience more than who-dat haha but this will do. thanks, uploader!

[Maridianokusho]

@jackbestill Yes, right! 'You Only Live Twice' is excellent, too.

Barry and Bassey ^^

It's a Shame the Bass Guitarist isn't putting in as Much Soul to the Music as Shirley is. I've never heard a bass guitar sound so plain & dead!

[merseymained]

@DoUWanna007- THEE Bond film singer.There's been other good themes, i know.I didn't know Johnny Mathis'd been offered Moonraker first. John Barry(rip)scoring again.You're a Bond 'fan',i take it?

[lildarlingchaz]

chris you are a stupid assmunch :) my mouth went like :O as soon as he said two and even if he got the question right it was still a stupid one . i mean she obviously felt proud and it was a good career move for her what did he think she was going to say ? dame shirley handled that situation with so much class and continued on to do a beautiful medley of the THREE songs :) love love love that woman!

[bowler8]

@lildarlingchaz Its rehearsed...all the questions are

[lildarlingchaz]

@bowler8 why would he get it wrong then and make himself look like a tool ? i think she is made aware of the questions that may be asked but i do believe he wasn't doing that to make a joke ?

[bowler8]

@lildarlingchaz because he's an idiot

[lildarlingchaz]

@bowler8 i agree :) aha 

[DoUWanna007]

Now you know what a real singer sounds like.

That Voice!

[westfield90]

Superb

[kalifekp]

The same genial voice that she had in 1964, 1971 and 1979. Incredible.

[florafox]

the insertion of moonraker at 2:28 is a very tricky thing to do ( from f sharp minor to a Bb major chord ) but 3:50 would be a deathtrap for most singers because after F sus4 everybody expects Bb major, but Shirley masters the radical key change at 3:50 , because she has so much talent. she is great.

[bowler8]

@florafox she didn't have to sing it in that low a key, the original wasn't that low.

[florafox]

she is really great !!

[alvinwren]

love James Bond movies (especially with Sean Connery and Roger Moore)

nobody sings the theme songs like Shirley Bassey

one word to describe her ------------ CLASS

[shakercoola]

Moonraker was such a great tune..so glad to hear it for the first time.

[MaxRenn]

Shirley she's the voice

of James Bond?

She's CLASSIC.



[arcadian78]

I love Dame Shirley singing the Moonraker theme,I dont think Johnny Mathis would have done as good a job.

[shakercoola]

@arcadian78 well it's Shirley, she has right combo of style, glamour, danger, sexiness, bombast, and vitality that we expect from the films.

[rickram1961]

Shirley Bassey sang some of most timeless Bond Themes ever.

[dilmdilmdilm]

Shirley's songs are better then the films, bravo shirley!

[ASEFQZDR]

SHIRLEY BASSEY I like your voice so much!do you want to marry me?

[chiefsittingbull2]

It would have been fantastic if Shirley Bassey was hired to do all of the Bond movie theme songs.

[27twilightmoon]

she's just great!

[julioareck]

Bassey, Shirley Bassey.

Classic, powerful, sexy.

[cameronboy18]

lol at Chris Parker, not knowing that she sang three Bond themes :)

[ehulbertjr]

Beautiful voice! Beautiful lady!!
