  • REMASTERED CLIP (1971 Shirley Bassey appearance on the Tom Jones Show)
    Shirley Bassey performed two solo songs, and then sang a duet with Tom. This clip includes Shirley's solo number songs: 1) SOMETHING, 2) The Fool On The Hill
    ABOUT the Song SOMETHING:
    "Something" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their eleventh studio album Abbey Road (1969). It was written by George Harrison, the band's lead guitarist. Together with his second contribution to Abbey Road, "Here Comes the Sun", it is widely viewed by music historians as having marked Harrison's ascendancy as a composer to the level of the Beatles' principal songwriters, John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Two weeks after the album's release, the song was issued on a double A-side single, coupled with "Come Together", making it the first Harrison composition to become a Beatles A-side. Among the song's many cover versions, Welsh singer Shirley Bassey recorded a successful version of "Something". It was released in 1970 as the title track to her album of the same name. Also issued as a single, it became Bassey's first top-ten hit in the UK since "I (Who Have Nothing)" in 1963, peaking at number 4 and spending 22 weeks on the chart. The single also reached the top twenty in other European countries and peaked at number 6 on Billboard's Easy Listening (later Adult Contemporary) chart.
    ABOUT the Song, The Fool On The Hill:
    "The Fool on the Hill" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1967 EP and album Magical Mystery Tour. It was written and sung by Paul McCartney and credited to the Lennon-McCartney partnership. The lyrics describe the titular "fool", a solitary figure who is not understood by others, but is actually wise. McCartney said the idea for the song was inspired by the Dutch design collective the Fool, who derived their name from the tarot card of the same name, and possibly by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Shirley Bassey included this song on her 1970 album titled, 'SOMETHING'. It was a Top 50 single for her, but the album was a Top 5 hit that spent 28 weeks in the Top 50.
    LYRICS - SOMETHING:
    Something in the way he moves
    Attracts me like no other lover
    Something in the way he woos me.
    I don't want to leave him now
    You know I believe him how.
    Somewhere in his smile he knows
    That I don't need no other lover
    Something in his style that shows me.
    I don't want to leave him now
    You know I believe him how.
    You're asking me will my love grow.
    I don't know, I don't know.
    You stick around now it may show.
    I don't know, I don't know.
    Something in the way he knows
    And all I have to do is think of him
    Something in the things he shows me.
    Don't want to leave him now
    You know I believe him how.
    You're asking me will my love grow.
    I don't know, I don't know.
    You stick around now it may show.
    I don't know, I don't know.
    Something in the way he moves.
    Something in the way he knows.
    Something in the way he smiles.
    Something!
    LYRICS - The Fool On The Hill:
    Day after day alone on the hill
    The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
    But nobody wants to know him
    They can see that he's just a fool
    And he never gives an answer
    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning around
    Well on his way his head in a cloud
    The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
    But nobody ever hears him
    Or the sound he appears to make
    And he never seems to notice
    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning around
    And nobody seems to like him
    They can tell what he wants to do
    And he never shows his feelings
    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning around
    Round and round and round
    He never listens to them
    He knows that they're the fools
    The don't like him
    But the fool on the hill
    Sees the sun going down
    And the eyes in his head
    See the world spinning around
