Shirley Bassey: Voice, Style, Pizzaz

Wales-born Shirley Bassey has been the singing heart of glitz and glam for fifty years. Her first hit, The Banana Boat Song (Day-O), came in 1957 and her powerful voice began appearing in James Bond films with the movie Goldfinger in 1964. Bassey's voice perfectly suited the stylish, suave 007 and the intrigue and allure of the imaginary life of the spy and she performed the theme songs for two more Bond movies, the only person to have recorded more than one.

We could go on and on about Dame Shirley Bassey, but her voice and performances say it all. Perhaps only Eartha Kitt has a more distinctive voice. Watch her videos, sample her songs, and enjoy the sassy fruits of her musical labor. You'll also find a more formal biography and other music to enjoy. Drop me a note if I've missed your favorite video or song, and let me know what you think of Shirley Bassey. Enjoy!
