The Greatest Performance Of My Life
This Is My Life - บันเทิง
To any students of performance, this is what you call, your actual masterpiece.
When you grow up with this - you can see why modern performers seem like amateurs by comparison - no contest - this IS world-class. For real !
Most singers seem amateurs when compared to Shirley Bassey.
We say the same thing with music rap, hip-hop, R&B, etc! Elvis Pressly I heard was good!
Lot's of great singers today, if you know where to look. I guess the closest analogy today would be Beyonce. I haven't listened to her enough to tell, but I don't think she can do what Bassey could do...and I don't think Bassey could do what Cassandra Wilson does. Bassey was a broad/loud Vegas style singer with a nasal timbre and exaggerated vibrato, similar to Ethel Merman. Like Merman, I get the impression she sang unamplified a lot in her youth. Make no mistake, I still think she was great, but there are many great singers today under the radar.
Totally agree with you! No auto tune here, no gimmicks, etc.. just pure talent, singing and entertaining! You can tell it takes a lot out of her! Another great performance of hers is Talk of the Town, 1972.
@@GCKelloch LOL. ok.
This is a classic. This woman is a jewel.
My God she's gorgeous !..Nobody today has that kind of power
@@TheReturnOfStephan1 still not the same level as dame Shirley but she’s closer than most
@@TheReturnOfStephan1 Jennifer doesn’t have the same power as Shirley.. she uses a lot of twang, she doesn’t have the same weight behind her voice as Shirley does or enough volume to sing over an orchestra
@@TheReturnOfStephan1 no she doesn’t 😂
@@TheReturnOfStephan1 of course 😉
I came to watch my Favorite again!!! Love you forever Dane Shirley Bassey World 🌎 Legend 💯👏

I mean, what can you say? That is a performance extraordinaire. An earthquake of singing. What a glorious talent! One of the best singers ever.
Dame Shirley Bassey is truly first class. No wonder she sang 3 Bond songs.

The best female singer ever to grace the stage. Phasing, articulation, raw emotion, sensuality. The full package. God bless her.

It is just pure magic. I have revisited it again after watching her at the BAFTAs last night .
She is simply wonderful.
She is phenomenal!!!! Shirley forever!!!!The voice and presence of a Diva.
The greatest vocalist / performer of the 20th century. She interprets the lyrics, she lives the words. ♥️

I was only two when she was doing this concert but my goodness, that beauty. She’s 82 now. And I still think she is beautiful. Much love to you Dame Shirley😘

Exactly , well said. William Percival New Zealand Gardenia Band 🇨🇰 Kia Orana
@@williampercival7662 excellent watching and listening to Shirley Bassey . Most powerful singer in my opinion . God bless her
.
P E R F E C T ! !
shoe
A diamond forever
I love the way she can sustain one single note and by simply sustaining that single note, tell so much, such richness, and in each context telling something different and appropriate to the part of the tune, such domain of musicality and expressiveness.
Very, very well expressed!!! 🥲🌺🌺❤️❤️❤️💯🌹🌹🌹🌹☺️
When you meet Shirley,over a period of years,in your work, as I did.I worked at The Dorchester Hotel,and served/met her on many occasions,and I (and the other staff) became a part of her extended family,and she treated us like that too.I went(with some colleagues) to this concert,with tickets(best front row seats) given to us by Shirley.We had drinks and canapes after in her dressing room.Offstage Shirley is an ordinary,kind,thoughtful,quiet person (with a great & risque sense of humour).I have many great memories of my time at The Dorchester (many film stars etc) but they are dwarfed by my memories of Shirley.
What a wonderful reminiscence! She truly has a God given talent
Shirley Bassey was one best singer of all time she sing live without backup singers just with the band, I just love this concert and love that green gown she was wearing.
One of my favorites, such a great singer and a beautiful lady !!
What a performances of a Shirley Bassey? So, classic ... and full of confidence within herself! Her songs are from her heart, you know ...
She is fantastic
She is absoluyrly great. Excellent performance.
Beauty, glamour, style, absolutely sensational singer! That's Dame Shirley Bassey! All time Diva! Classic! Blessings!😍😍💞💞💝💝💟💟
She has an impeccable voice and diction. The greatness of a singer is when you can understand clearly the words they are singing. Nancy Wilson was another singer with impeccable voice clarity and diction in her performances.
Agreed as I've found a singer in the language I'm studying going on 4 years fitting what you wrote and I've compared her to Shirley and more great singers in different genre!
@@mrgivins9690 Who?
Well, diction helps understand the lyrics (which are often trite filler), but singing is really a visceral artform. Bassey was quite adept at it. I generally prefer Nancy Wilson, and Ella was the best of the best, but this concert is spectacular.
Also
Sinatra and Nat king Cole had great dictions
Sinatra? Sorry, he couldn't even be bothered to sing proper lyrics! His diction wasn't special. I loved him, but must take issue at the comment by @raquelsaenz5899
James Bond was my favorite fictitious hero as a child growing up. Goldfinger one of my fav movies and Shirley Basie with that stunning iconic voice exhilarated me over and over. Lady Basie is truly one of those special voices of a century. Thank you..........
M P As you like James Bond I was wondering if you have seen Shirley singing The Living Tree live at Royal Variety (on you tube). Although this isn't a James Bond song it certainly should have been as you will realise when you hear it, and her performance of it is nothing short of true greatness. I hope you will enjoy it.
Dame Shirley, the profound voice and sound. I’m surprised I missed this for so long. Ms. Bassey is truly amazing!
Not to forget moonraker
And awe-inspiring performance for the world. As a high as human performance Art has ever reached.
Hermosa, maravillosa, fantástica por siempre.
And just stunning and sensational in that spectacular green gown. Behold Shirley Bassey!👌🏾
What a voice. What a lady Pure brilliance
Completely mesmerising . No modern female performer even comes close. Shirley is in a league of her own
😆🤣
You are immortal darling ❤️
Dame Shirley Bassey gives each and every performance...the greatest performance of her life GOOSEBUMPS...with every single note she sings 💕💕🙏🏽
Everything about this concert is a masterpiece...Dame Shirley Bassey...you are truly MAGNIFICENT 💕💕❤️
amazing a true legend there will never be another singer like her ever
DIVA! I love this women! What a talent, the one, the only Shirley Bassey!
Few artists who move me...and literally take my breath away.
God Bless you DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY 💕💕🙏🏽
My favorite singer ever since 😍
The must phenomenal performer ...pure passion and power ...Goosebumps on top of GOOSEBUMPS ...Dame Shirley Bassey is simply sublime 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
An extraordinary artist...no one like her...she is truly exceptional.
The orchestra is unbelievable too.
Bravo...Bravo...Bravo love you DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY 💕💕🙏🏽

Dame Shirley Bassey’s like medicine for the soul most powerful sexy voice a total Goddess highest level of authenticity a heavenly treasure will heal your downs and blues, love her dearly🙏🙏🎶❤️♾🌟👏🎶👍
I love your songs Cherubim Shirley, It is truly inspirational and spiritually empowering...May Almighty God bless you and protect you and your family.
Stunning, timeless and reassuring.
Você e tudo isso e muito mais.
😲😳 wow...many accolades had been said about her but watching her perform now and how she deliver every song was an absolute perfection!
Her stage presence though is something else to talk about. She was giving you that visual of how a great storytelling is done.
No one can make good covers out of her songs, it's rare you can get at par with this level of artistry.
No one finishes a note like she does. Smooth and effortless like a perfect sip of a rare world class wine.
@Onionshooter: another interesting & delightful ways to describe her
talent. I simply LOVE LOVE LOVE it! 🌹🌹🌹☺️ an adorable classic
expression💯❤️❤️❤️🎀
This is almost an unreal talent and voice , so much underrated , i had to see a show of people trying to play like famous voices to remember Shirley. Superb voice!
The woman who follows the crowd will go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before. I love you, Shirley.👏❤️
She is the best
Love her.love her.....so passionate!
A Wonderful voice from a beautiful time.
Shirley Bassey truly owns the stage, with every performance I get chills.
without you wow what a performance !!!
I have no words to express, Just pure SUPER POWER. GOD BLESS SHIRLEY BASSEY!
Amazing energy. Thank you for helping. Love, respect and gratitude
No smoke and mirrors! Dame Shirley Bassey is a definite class act. A legend in her own time. A force to be reckoned with.
yes; and she does not need all this because she is and will always be a class or her own, HER VERY OWN class. There will be noone to reach her perfectness ..... 27.12.19 ..... a voice of a century.
The so called performers we have now pale in comparison to Dame Shirley’s amazing and magnificent voice! Truly a very classy lady!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely one of the best! I wish when my dad was alive he had the chance to see her in concert. A voice that very few have. I love watching Dame Shirley. Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🙏🙏😀😀😀
legendary!
The joy with which she sings and stage presence are amazing,the best
My Mum and Dad loved her and went to see her several times. They’re no longer here, so to watch Shirley’s performances now is kind of bitter sweet.Without a doubt she was a fabulous performer. The 70s and 80s were fab!
Lovely post! My mum too, though we also went with her when we were old enough to appreciate the Great Dame!😊😁
No body has ever been like her before and or after. Wow, Shirley Bassey is the greatest-highest one; the best ever heard. Superb!!! 'JM'.
I am so sad because I grew up when Shirley had her own TV shows and she was in concert around the world .Having seen her in concert 4 times and what a performer and all those hit singles she had brings all my memories back of the past and how time has moved on. The Shirley Bassey days were my best ,that period of time The Seventies, Eighties and Nineties . Happy times. Thank you Dame Shirley.
She is one of the best performers ever❤
We are watching the epitome of excellence. This confirmed why she's been my favorite female singer. Incomparable -- that may probably stay forever. Thank you so much Dame Shirley! Also, you've done us a big favor Ms. DSkinner for keeping it online. Enjoy everyone!!
Shirley is just unique. A rare Star on her own realm. Amazing power, OMG!
Dame Bassey is a singer. All of these pop stars aren't singers,they are performers.
Just Dame Bassey and an orchestra.
If any of Dame Shirley Bassey's performances don't give you GOOSEBUMPS...you had better check your pulse❤️❤️❤️
Superb entertainer! She “talks” to her audience through her songs.
Great band great musicians and Shirley fantastic.
Legend .
Great talent. One of a kind.
A truly triumphant performance. And a magnificent audience who understood and appreciated Miss Bassey.
GOOSEBUNPS ...on top of GOOSEBUMPS...I could listen to this masterpiece all day every day ...and in fact I do ❤️❤️🙏🏽
Shirley Bassey my favorite female singer known as " The Belter" for her powerful voice. I love her song "Never Never." Thanks for posting.
Got to agree with you..what a song it is!❤
one of a kind.....the Great!...Shirley Bassey!
Ive always been in awe of her voice and power...
But I was completely blown away, myself being 60, to see her breathtaking Charisma and stage presence and confidence.
This woman is a force to be reckoned with. Her unconventional childhood to evolve and be appreciated to the highest level of social and professional status is astoundingly appropriate. She is relentlessly on fire...pure raw talent.
I had no idea..This woman is "off the chain"...drop dead gorgeous AND she loves performing, lives for it...
Dame Shirley Bassey..😌
What an awesome, soulful , touching
tribute to her. One more lovely for her to read & appreciate highly🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️💯🌟🌟🌟🤗🌹🎀🎀🌺
Shirley is “fantastic” no one then and now comes close to this incredible talent and beauty. Many thanks for the years of fun, heartbreak and joy. I loved my youth growing up with you.♥️
Oh, how sweeeet!!! 🤗🌹🌹🌹
MONSTROUS VOICE......UNTOUCHABLY, THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME !
Hi
Monstrously over the top at times but yes, one noticed her . very much so
Aretha is the greatest, but Shirley had her own dramatic inimitable style that I loved.
@@markdrinkwater1508 completely different styles so shouldn’t ever compare but Aretha definitely doesn’t have the same power as Shirley
@@crazycatpetera1404 Aretha's belting power with range, resonance, clarity and beauty of tone is unmatched, by anybody. She has no rivals, Shirley would tell you this if you asked her.
SPECTACULAR !!!!! FANTASTIC !!!!
WOW ! PERFECTION !
I first saw this magnificent singer in Melbourne ,1969. I was so blown away I saw her again the very next night.
