Shirley Bassey ~ Moonraker 1979 Disco Purrfection Version

[@imthebrother]

forever lives actors Sir Roger Moore and Richard Kiel plus composer John Barry, their legacies will continue to shine and last a lifetime. I'll forever be a 007 fan from this day forward. This is why this purrfection mix of "Moonraker" continues to shine a light in my spirit daily.

[@robzilla730]

Henry Cooper even though he only did 2 Bond movies. Richard Kiel left an indelible stamp as Jaws! i would have loved to have seen Jaws in later films as an MI6 or other 'good guy' agency operative

[@KeldorDAntrell]

Me and my dad thought that the Jaws character could easily have carried a film of his own.

[@robzilla730]

Keldor D'Antrell i don't know about that but he would've made a GREAT supporting character. Heroic and likeable with a touch of comic relief.

One of the best James Bond movie soundtracks ever made. 🎉🎉🎉

[@peterfranks6243]

My first Bond movie in the cinema experience with my late father was in 1977 with The Spy Who Loved Me, then Moonraker came out, I was ten years old... for a kid in that era it literally blew me away, Bond fan ever since. God bless you Sir Roger, John Barry and Shirley Bassey.. it's not to late for her to sing a fourth Bond movie theme

[@darrenwindle3592]

My first was the spy who loved me.😊

[@thegreatburt9005]

A cold damp and miserable journey to work brightened immeasurably by this great remix, thank you.

[@georgesritsinas3088]

Les 2 versions sont excellentes. J'ai eu la chance de voir ce film à sa sortie et on se rencontre que la vie est courte. Après 43 années passées toujours à l'écoute de cette fabuleuse chanson. 💖💖💖💖

[@boomerbreaks2133]

Amazing how people hated this music 30+ years ago and only now are beginning to appreciate it. I love this stuff!

[@chrislynn8746]

I agree, Disco was finished by about 1980 and I remember watching Moonraker at the cinema aged about 12 or 13 and couldn't stand the closing theme because I used to like rock. What changed everything for me was a schoolfriend playing "The Adventures on the Wheels of Steel" by Grandmaster Flash, sampling Chic's "Good Time's" bassline. Chic is now my favourite band (in it's original lineup) Now I am 50 and love it and all Disco and funk. This is a brilliant extended version.

[@jorgeborges7707]

What? Only stupid racist morons hated it. It was converted into an electronic version known as "house" music in 1987. I never stopped liking it. What happened to all those violin players?

[@jorgeborges7707]

@@chrislynn8746 "Disco was finished by about 1980". Lol, you weren't alive at the time or lived in the USSR. Disco never died in western Europe and the US. It was still made and continued to be made throughout the 80s.

[@chrislynn8746]

@@jorgeborges7707 I was well and truly alive in 1980 I can assure you!!!

[@jorgeborges7707]

@@chrislynn8746 Haha, ok and sorry for not reading your comment properly. I agree that it became less popular. We started to listen to New Romantic stuff in those days like Simple Minds and Duran Duran. I also got into reggae which had some discoish elements. Remember 3rd World or Eddie Grant? I also like Chic a lot, Nile Rogers was a genius.

[@angelarayner1117]

Never, ever understood how anyone disliked 'Moonraker' !!! Anything Dame Shirley & , John Barry did especially together was fantastic!!!! I Love the opening & closing song & of the purrffect version.👍

[@CastellanSpandex]

What Angela says! 👍🏻

[@bennyrobles9194]

My gosh….what a voice….what a song.!!!!! For me she still is the best person to sing a Bond movie song.

[@davidrobinson5122]

This was one of the best things about that movie The End titles and Dame Shirley Bassey

[@lukerodick6649]

God bless you roger and Richard you were special ❤️❤️❤️ Thankyou for all you did x

This is pure gold.

[@georgesritsinas3088]

I love much this song and the soundtrack is very beautiful.

[@briandawson8701]

I love this version of Mizz Basseys song❤

[@rvegas81]

I did not care for the actual movie. But this song always stuck out to me as kid. it's helped (now that im nearing 40) to check out alot of older music artists that i had no clue about.

[@johnroarty9362]

Love this disco version of the Moonraker theme. 👍

Sakamoto Mio I'm Big fan of Roger, I was coming home from work when i heard the news and i almost spilled my coffee .

[@robzilla730]

RIP Richard Kiel and John Barry as well.

[@SKumar-kp7fq]

The only Gentlemen to have portrayed 007 !

[@RickMarinanimation]

In my opinion The Roger Moore era had THE BEST movie themes from "Live and Let Die , For Your Eyes only , Nobody Does it Better , A View To A Kill and of course MY favorite Moonraker ( Disco Version )

[@eybaza6018]

All Time High is great too

[@monticlassictv]

You could never imagine what these fantastic movies could be without the musical talents of the likes of Shirley Bassey and the superb compositions of the late John Barry wow what a talent. Nevertheless thanks very much for the video.

[@mikew.andbrad8614]

Incredible transition from movie to DISCO beat. This is an awesome version.

[@GraemeMurphy]

Really ? Very school boyish mix with no match to to the beat or rhythm.

[@alexanderwyllie7334]

I prefer the end title version tbh . From the exciting freefall sequence and then the title song ( imho) slows the whole film down .

[@stephenspangler1575]

Always cool when John Barry created a disco version of his movie title track. I enjoy both this version of "Moonraker" and "The Deep". When my daughter was trying out for a high school musical a few years ago, they asked her what piece she wanted to try out with. They were very much surprised when she sang "Moonraker"!

[@terrymck216]

This is pure class ! I love this remix version so cool miss Shirley CV basset is a iconic singer and she has sang 3 bond films 1962 goldfinger 1971 diamonds are forever brilliant and 1979 Moonraker I am a avid bond fan and Shirley basset is a true legends of music her career is amazing and when I hear this track I think CV back to growing up in Wigan Lancashire England 1977 -84 great days playing football with my mates watching Manchester united at old Trafford wham games kicked off at 15.00 on a Saturday !

[@nobodyshome4633]

Real Music. Absolutely outstanding musical compositions and the truly gorgeous silky smooth tones of the incomparable Dame Shirley Bassey xx

[@thebuttonsblog]

Ooo, 2:20 - 2:40 is just gorgeous. One of my life's musical muscle memories. Bassey's pitch could cut glass, and the way her voice dips with the key change and disco ladle underneath is spine-tingling.

[@swordscot]

Love this. Great movie from my teenage years. Totally underrated - both the movie and the song. Thanks DJDiscoCatV2

[@alanfox4172]

I miss roger Moore as 007. Sad to say he passed away a couple of months ago it depends when you grow up he was my favourite bond he saved the franchise after Sean Connery quit and George lazenby nearly fun caked it up I like how you merge the fast and slow version together.the disco version too.

[@rafaelmarin7220]

This version has a little vibe of John Barry's own theme song from the 1977 film "The Deep". And I love all 3 Shirley Bassey's James Bond Theme songs.

[@puglisipatricia]

Sir Roger Moore 1927- forever !!!

[@glenrichardson6396]

They passed a law in 1978 that made it mandatory to make a disco version of everything that human beings had ever conceived of.

[@jeffreycheatham9613]

Glen Richardson a

[@jorgeborges7707]

Correct.

[@jorgeborges7707]

I have a BL Princess, no electric windoze but it has an FM stereo and tape deck. There's a button you can press called "disco". Basically it's a British version of "loudness". It makes music more disco and lowers your driving skill. Sadly it doesn't improve the exhaust system or increase the engine size.

[@jrawlins5246]

God bless that law!!!!

[@SBBLURAY1]

Lucky me!

[@carolyng651]

I LOVE THIS VERSION SO MUCH. BRAVO!!!!! THANKS

A brilliant remix version from an iconic artist and super franchise I love the James bond films and miss Shirley bassey is a true legend of the music industry taken from the 1979 Moonraker starring sir Roger Moore as 007 and Richard Kiel as villain jaws he previously was in 1977 the spy who loved me !!! The only baddie to star in 2 bond films Lois Chile's Michael Lonsdale also starred !

[@slyslaughter5115]

Most beautiful and well-written of the Bond themes. Great remix.
