Only Dame Shirley could do better than Freddy Mercury for this song. Absolute beauty for the ears, I hope she is singing for another 50 years because they don't make talent like that anymore.
being a hardcore queen fan i hav to say this is wonderfull shirley style wonderfull,now plees listen to freddie mercurys queen version go on check it out
Whichever way - Freddie would have been SO proud to have listened to Shirley's version.
Brian May and the others certainly are. It's an emotional song that deserves an emotional singer to cover it.....not sure anyone else could have, with quite the careful tenderness Shirley projects here.
I agree to disagree with you. Although I have been Queen Free for over 15 years, I always believe their songs belong to them alone. Nobody should cover them. I stand by my comments.
she is a one of a kind !!

Such a shame that Freddie Mercury and Shirley never came to work together. It would have been amazing

I don't want to imagine a world without Dame Shirley Bassey. She is like a rainbow in a black and white picture.
Thank you Shirley for all the joy you bring in our lives

That reminds me of "And i love you so", the song that Shirley stole from Don McLean :)
"That's showbusiness", she said.
I think Shirley did a great cover of this song, i've added both versions to my collection, Shirley's and the original one.
Everybody should be allowed to cover a song that belongs to someone else, that keeps the music alive.

@Thorneycroft1937 If it's going to be like this, I need to leave YouTube sooner than you think.

With no disrespect to Dame Shirley: No one should sing a Queen song. Queen songs are/should be exclusively theirs.
