Shirley Bassey - What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life / The Magic Is You (1979 Show #5)

[@dondarko7885]

There are no current female artists who compares to the women of this era.

[@789armstrong]

Probably the greatest song ever written, superbly performed.

[@jolsn42]

My Lord, I forgot how just wonderful she was. 👍No one today can match her.

[@TheJulianwilde]

That one composer could write this masterpiece AND "The Summer of 42," just stretches the imagination!♥

[@sas9023055]

Michele Legrand loved Shirley's voice, and agreed to play the piano on her show when Shirley performed his song. For those who don't know, Michele wrote the music and Alan and Marilyn Bergman wrote the lyrics. Who wouldn't love Shirley's voice and amazing vocal abilities! Now 86 yo, she STILL has the ability to sing anything

[@swederoorad2318]

I did not know that! Thank you. Summer if '42 is in my top five fav songs of all time.

[@caracticusthirdaisi2986]

The fact that a live performance can be so completely flawless... not a recording of the best of 100 takes... Dame Shirley Bassey is simply one of the greatest vocalists who ever lived!

[@sas9023055]

I second and third that...Regards, Scot USA

[@marcandsebe]

I was at a wedding in Henley on Thames at the Phylis Court Club. They have concerts every summer and it’s all on the opposite bank of the River Thames. I went outside and suddenly heard Shirley’s stunning voice. It gave me goosebumps.

[@evelessandramallari2405]

So smooth voice

[@songbyrdmusicministry8398]

beautiful

[@rbsprods3200]

Fantastic! Dame Shirley Bassey with maestro Michel Lagrand, together. WOW!!~

[@martynjohnson5788]

Brilliant performance from Shirley but let's not forget Michel Legrand on piano. He was a fantastic pianist and world-beating composer.

[@BobGerathy]

World BLESSING

[@yovinny5244]

It's the perfect love song, no doubt. Shirley's version is the best. It's my favorite. I listen to it at least once a week. It never gets old. Love you Shirley.

[@fredguillaume3674]

[@georgecrothers5618]

God's gift to us all - Shirley Bassey.

[@paulreserva6991]

The magic is you Dame Shirley Bassey. This is my 1000000000th time I listen to the video. I just love the way you sang the magic is you!!!!!

[@rosaj2652]

I prefer Dame Shirley's version with that big booming voice. She's a great vocalist and I remember watching her show when I was very young and being completely mesmerized by her beauty and talent! ❤😊

[@grai]

LeGrand seemed to be really enjoying it which tells you everything - he wrote it and must have heard every version

[@IanKeith100]

The best version of this song I have ever heard. Beyond stunning.

[@michaelmiller1215]

IanKeith100 I love the upbeat optimistic version of this performance. But my favorite rendition will always be Rosemary Clooney’s melancholy version!

[@GRHCU]

How we need another Shirley Bassey!! The magic was Shirley... There should be 2000 Comments here in response to these great songs.............................

[@richarddombakly413]

One word "exquisite ".

[@garyshawver653]

Such a song, such a performance.......

[@erodrod5485]

I will listen to this video, a million times, for always; one of the best from Bassey !!

[@colsomemiah6095]

Amber Holcomb but I adore Dame but on that song this 16 year old girl is more poignant and wistful

[@BIGTODD250]

BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!

[@GRHCU]

Shirley was just wonderful!! This comment section should include thousands of positive remarks!!! Incredible..

[@jorgemolina3837]

Come on: it is not only Shirley's voice. Michel Legrand playing live, the author of this song and others like The Windmill of your mind, summer of 42, Brian's song, the umbrellas of cherbourg.... Come on !!!!!!

[@dianabeurman9937]

[@PaoloNYC]

So amazing and so special. Shirley made the song her own! Love it!

[@leroymurray1590]

I agree with you wholeheartedly she puts her signature on it and makes it her comprable Shirley Bassey.!

[@contourbody]

Dusty Springfield, imho, she was on another level....

[@martovill]

Oh My God, what a beautiful song, one of the best I ever heard

[@MrSoothingjazz]

I can't even listen to anyone else sing this song

[@josemorales3894]

RIP Mr Legrand that was our wedding song.We met him in New York one evening at the Blue Note for his first performance in NY.I know he had probably heard that about What are you doing the rest of your life before,but now that he is gone I’m happy we let him know how special that song was and is for us.Our version is interpreted by Johnny Mathis ,however Ms Bassey brings a whole another dimension to the song.

[@djbassey2]

The legendary Bassey.

[@josettedefays9104]

Magique!!!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@JoaoGuarnieriPianista]

Que voz espetacular!

[@IFINEVERSING]

what a wonderful singer, she `reads` the music and lyrics and then acts the performance...it is an art that few can do properly

[@SRSM198]

Shirley had a great fan in my dad, so she is not only a great performer she holds memories of him also.

[@annaglorianieri8685]

Le Grandi Note di Shirley!! 💛

[@aliciamariacecotti3840]

[@Thouveninpascal]

Un seul pianiste joue comme ça... une énigme.

[@MrSoothingjazz]

magical quality to her voice

[@Michael-wt4qs]

Bassey brings an operatic edge to everything- vowels proud and strong and the heart of an Italian! - a true pop artist who is or could have ruled the Mezzo operatic world - a star

[@AdnanDuaneRazack]

As a child in London your presence, your voice, your smile mesmerized me....as an adult ...all those attributes you have still do, you are true magnificence!

[@makeminemusic1]

Amazing!!! Love her! :)

[@Dorothy4Justice]

[@alphaalfonso1969]

SINGING SONGS AS THE LANGUAGE OF MY SOUL...

[@dandy7989]

beautiful, this is what music is all about

[@GRHCU]

You are right dandy!!!

[@GRHCU]

I should listen to her more...Amazing, Amazing!!

[@donkiddick08]

once again bassey covers a song and puts the original in the shade.

[@domoniquecricket9767]

I Love Shirley! I Love Barbra! They Are The Best! I Would Like A Video Of Them Singing Together!

[@sas9023055]

You have great taste in music. Both these ladies are simply the best. I am so glad that your comment is a plus for both ladies, as so many others feel a need to put down the artist who is not his/her favorite. Shirley and Barbra have recorded many of the same songs over the past 50+ years, but their voices are different. Different, but equally amazing in their own vocal qualities/abilities. Anyone who can appreciate the talent of both these ladies is someone who simply appreciates the best in music. If both ladies sounded exactly alike, it would be a boring world. Regards, Scot

[@sas9023055]

ATTENTION: Dame Shirley Bassey will be appearing at the 2013 Academy Awards Show In Hollywood on February 24th. She will perform for the 50th James Bond anniversary celebration! Wonderful News! Bassey is herself celebrating 60 (Diamond) years in Show Business, starting back in 1953.

[@bswann2]

as always shirley just great

[@johnchristopher9031]

The Magic is You,Dame Bassey.xx

[@peterashford7855]

she had such an amazing voice

[@alexfletcher5192]

She was and is a genius. And she sometimes wishes I was Welsh than rather than neighbouring English.

[@sas9023055]

IF you go by heritage and not birth place, Shirley is half English on her mother's side. Her mother Eliza Jane migrated to Wales before Shirley was born.

[@mickyalberta3484]

Shirley Bassey is an AWESOME singer.

[@marvalightbourne5134]

dame Shirley bassey has such a robust voice ..love her

[@miriambatista3791]

MARAVILHOSA SEMPRE ! MISS BASSEY
