Holla ! Never ceases to amaze me the great stuff that pops up on here ! SHIRLEY BASSEY !!!! I saw a drag queen sing this about 25 years ago or more and was knocked for six by it, ran out and bought it, and have been transfixed by her and this deliciously overwraught li'l song ever since...( another time was hearing Jennifer HOLLIDAY sing And I'm Tellin' You I'm Not Goin' which is now back and all the rage with Hudson, tho I confess I can't get past Hollidays barnburner rendition... ) Can't wait for the elegant Robert/Marlene to weigh in here.... (PS can someone tell me who the chap was singing it... ? Thx )

Two great versions of that song. Who was that guy? He can really sing!

Midnight Prism - am madly rooting thru boxes of LPs to find the exact album it first appeared on ( I wanna say Bassey at Carnegie but could be wrong) in order to recommend it... the orchestra is souped-up and overheated and so is she, she bites off the lyric like kibble and it's riveting, diva-dom incarnate...but ya'd love it ! Anyone know the verion I'm thinkin of ?

Round 2: Goldfinger

Shirley is INCREDIBLE....I love the way she is lifted on stage just as the woman's hand rises in the opening credits of Goldfinger....NICE!!!

Round 2: Goldfinger
