Neil Diamond & Shirley Bassey - Play Me - "high quality"

[@itsabouttime8680]

When television was worth watching. We will never have artists of this calibre again.

[@adrianm296]

Yes. We had 3 channels, they went off air before midnight every day. And pretty much EVERYTHING was quality. These days, a million channels. And tidying out the airing cupboard is preferable to watching anything on there. Thank God for KZbin for allowing us to revisit these times.

[@enricote2578]

We alresdy called it rubbish twenty years ago, think how much rotten can be today!

[@markos_vault]

Totally agree. Thankfully videos of this splendid caliber were saved for everyone to enjoy. Thank you to whomever posted this gem 🎉🎉

Diamond and the Dame, Beautiful Voices

[@presleyslave]

Incredibly beautiful and tender.

[@Marcosbryant222]

Gosh, I love this man all his songs are unique, such a great melody timeless lyrics, a great song by a great artist I love all his songs What do you admire most about him?🙂🙂

[@pete4180]

Uncomfortably beautiful!

[@KT-kb8kh]

Two absolutely stunning voices.

[@gabyvalenzuela5065]

One of my many favourite Neil's songs!! Wonderful duet and in love with the way he looks at her. I'd have melted if I were in her shoes!! Wonderful!!!👏💕

[@caroledullaghan3143]

I think she did melt! This is the most romantic and loving duo I've ever seen.

[@kimsealy3633]

I would have wanted to jump his bones😂😂

[@ukbuilt1755]

Unbelievable. 50 years on and I still find this duet extraordinary

[@flippinora]

Everything about this performance, arrangement, vocals, connection, is mesmerising 🎵❤️

Neil Diamond with such precision and control!!! Shirley In tune with exquisite vocal responses ❤️. WOW!!!

[@lynholmes-kotiadou8873]

OMG IM BREATHESSSSSSSSSSS … Neil you could have lightened my life up for sure miss your music ❤

[@virginiavanini8413]

There is no doubt in my mind that they had something beautiful going on. She has him all which way. He even gets sheepish. And you can see her value him and assess him, wonderment and his incredulous amazement at her. No question.

[@lindac7324]

They spoke volumes just in the way they looked at each other!!

[@marilynlevey3945]

That is how he totally commits himself to giving his best to all he does.Dont go looking for what was not there, he sang with many woman, the amazing vibes he gives off when he sings 'You don't bring me Flowers' with the lovely lady in his band, he captures the moment so beautifully, but at the end of the day, she is the wife of his bass guitarist. That is the total commitment of Neil Diamond to make you feel the Love of his music. God bless and love you Neil and Katie, you are Soo loved from South Africa 🌍 Marilyn (McGann) Levey ☘️☘️☘️

[@loristitt65]

Nothing going on between them, he is definitely in love with his wife!

[@marymanning5150]

Saw this when it first aired and it blew my mind.. I think he fell for her.

[@mollycox1]

That's no diamond necklace look! Most seductive song ever🇬🇧💗

[@D7J7W7]

Many have commented about how Neil looked at Shirley but I see how she was gazing at him and if that is not real then she is a fantastic actress!

[@dimolon1221]

Now thats how you want a man to look at you...🔥

[@sunshineofrays6977]

julie wilding....that is the exact same thought I had , his eyes are just so sexy...this sort of body language is so very loud you can't fail to see or feel it

[@grimmy4676]

More how a lady should look at a man - as much she deny it - SHE FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM - no argument ther

[@Msmorningsunrise]

and that is how you look at a man when you are completely smitten with him

YESSSSSS!!!

@@caroleh4900 He started out in 1965 with his first record. In 66' he wrote I'm a believer that the monkeys carried to a big hit. In 69' when he sang sweet caroline he was moving into major stardom. 72' hot August night album he was really on top of his game. This is 74' so here he is already established.

[@margaretgaskell4958]

it is sad as you say 😔 ibelive he wanted yo still write but could not play the guitar on the last show I saw such is illness that creep on as we go through life.
