Shirley Bassey - My Way (1987 Live in Berlin)

1987 (Shirley performs in Berlin celebrating the city's' existence for 750 years)
ABOUT this song:
"My Way" is a song with lyrics written by Paul Anka and popularized by Frank Sinatra. The melody is based on a French song "Comme d'habitude" composed by Claude François and Jacques Revaux. Anka's English lyrics are unrelated to the original French by Claude François and Gilles Thibaut and Anka is credited as a co-composer of "My Way" because he largely re-wrote the song. "My Way" is often quoted as the most remade song in history.
Paul Anka heard the original 1967 French pop song, Comme d'habitude (as usual) performed by Claude Francois with music by Claude Francois and Jacques Revaux and lyrics by Claude Francois and Gilles Thibault, while on holiday in the south of France. He flew to Paris to negotiate the rights to the song.[1] In a 2007 interview, he said: "I thought it was a bad record, but there was something in it."[2] He acquired publishing rights at no cost[3] and, two years later, had a dinner in Florida with Frank Sinatra and "a couple of Mob guys" at which Sinatra said he was "quitting the business. I'm sick of it, I'm getting the hell out".
Back in New York, Anka re-wrote the original French song for Sinatra, subtly altering the melodic structure and changing the lyrics: "At one o'clock in the morning, I sat down at an old IBM electric typewriter and said, 'If Frank were writing this, what would he say?' And I started, metaphorically, 'And now the end is near.' I read a lot of periodicals, and I noticed everything was 'my this' and 'my that'. We were in the 'me generation' and Frank became the guy for me to use to say that. I used words I would never use: 'I ate it up and spit it out.' But that's the way he talked. I used to be around steam rooms with the Rat Pack guys - they liked to talk like Mob guys, even though they would have been scared of their own shadows." Anka finished the song at 5am. "I called Frank up in Nevada - he was at Caesar's Palace - and said, 'I've got something really special for you.'"[2] Anka claimed: "When my record company caught wind of it, they were very pissed that I didn't keep it for myself. I said, 'Hey, I can write it, but I'm not the guy to sing it.' It was for Frank, no one else."
Dame Shirley Bassey recorded the song for her 1970 album Something. She also performed in live on numerous occasions notably the 1976 Royal Variety Performance. In the weeks following Sinatra's death in 1998 , Bassey sang is as a tribute to him on her "Diamond" concert tour.
LYRICS:
And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say it clear,
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full.
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway;
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Regrets, I've had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.
I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
"No, oh no not me,
I did it my way".
For what is a woman, what has she got?
If not herself, then she has naught.
To say the things she truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way.

I'm 68 years old. When I was 18, I worked behind a bar in a UK night club. I got called in on my night off. I had requested time off because Shirley Bassey was appearing for the next two weeks.(not my kind of music). Long story short. I worked that night and every other night for the following two weeks, just to be able to watch and listen. She was amazing. There wasn't a sound while she was performing. I'll never forget that two weeks.

[@barbararichardson8400]

I've heard this song by Frank Sinatra, but to hear Shirley Bassey sing this song took me to a new high. I played this song for my mother's memorial in 2021. I hear every woman's emotion, pain, joy, sadness, and freedom in this song video. The woman chooses not to explain why and did not want to explain anything to anyone. I hear my mother's voice and all her years of emotions in every movement Ms.Bassey made. I see now that my mother did things Her Way. Letting go and letting someone you love enjoy their life's journey without explanations is very hard to do. My mom enjoyed her journey I hope it took you to places no one will dear to explore.

On Mothers Day eve, I want to wish her a Happy Mothers Day. She loved Ms. Bassey and so do I, and this song. When I was a little girl, my mother was in the hospital and wanted to come home, they let her. That night, she fell in love with Lana Cantrell, who sang this on Ed Sullivan. We followed her around like love sick puppies! Now, at 66, I found a child on YT, named Carina Veghiu, and she's absolutely fantastic, like a mini SB, her beauty and power and emotion. This song is so emotional for so many reasons, 6 years ago and hopefully again in 2. I also sang this in a show when I was about 18, centuries ago, I hope my mother liked it. But, SB is just brilliant, her vocals are otherworldly and even her belting gives Whitney Houston competition and that's a hard thing to do. Shirley Bassey sings one word and I burst into tears. Sorry I vented. My Way does something to my emotional chord!

Pat: Check out Shirley's 1974 performance of this song. Dame Shirley is a real entertainers' singer, as each time she performs a song, she makes slight changes in the delivery. With Shirley's amazing voice, and unique live delivery style, she is one of those few singers/performers who are considered as a once in a generation performer. And, at 84 yo, she still has maintained her wonderful, vibrant voice

Back in the early 70s, maybe late 60s, my mother, who had just gotten out of the hospital, fell in love with Lana Cantrell, who sang this on Ed Sullivan. Almost immediately, she and I became like love sick puppies. Following her around, 2 weeks, 2 shows every night. Her band used to sit at our table between shows!!. I sang and imitated her, but I think she admired this fantastic woman, too. They sang a lot of the same songs. One song after 66 years, that I never heard of but love, is Never Never Never and Shirley just does it beautifully. What a voice. And I love her belting, she slides into a note with so much power and beauty. A truly incredible singer. This is My Life is another great song they both did. Unfortunately they just don't sing like this anymore. Oh, and I LOVE the band and arrangement on Never Never Never, brings the tears again. The way we were.

This wonderful classic has so many talented and brilliant singers who have presented it to us over many d....ALL Their way...I have heard them all on U Tube and each of them tell it the story in a unique way...As they see it. Just like we all do in life. Each of them adds a new dimension and layers. Sinatra, Elvis, Celine, Bassy and many others. 2020.Thank you all xx.

Magnificent as always my Queen ❤. When you consider that, less than 2 years previous Dame Shirley was unable to sing due to crippling grief, how she pulled herself through that terrible period and came out stronger, and better, as she and Helena found another octave. Bravo much kudos

Shirley respectfully you have been the love of my life since I was a teenager. You make me feel enamored of life with your voice and the feeling with which you sing. Your songs and your voice stimulate to continue working with illusion in spite of the adversities. During my life that has been full of emotions and challenges, happiness has been to hear you, and I am filled with love and I thank the Creator for sending you as an angel of light to give us happiness. I firmly believe that humans have seen with you what awaits you in paradise. You are a being of light
