Shirley Bassey - My Way / Bye Bye Blackbird / Send In The Clowns (1976 LIVE)

1976: Shirley Bassey has appeared in 9 Royal Variety Performances over her career. Please forgive If I've missed one or two: (1961, 1965, 1971, 1976, 1987, 1994, 2000, 2005, and 2014). This clip includes three songs from her 1976 appearance, including. This clip includes the songs out-of-order, with Shirley's powerful rendition of My Way performed first. She performs this song more as if one were to sing it in a musical.
1) My Way
2) Bye Bye Blackbird
3) Send In The Clowns (My apologies on Cover for stating, 'Where Are The Clowns)
LYRICS: My Way:
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 thats full.
I've traveled each and every highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Regrets, Ive 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, Im 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.
Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried.
Ive 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 man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!
LYRICS: Bye Bye Blackbird:
Pack up all my cares and woe, here I go, winging low
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is she
Bye, bye, blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye, bye
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is she
Bye, bye, blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
Oh what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye, bye
LYRICS: Send In The Clowns:
Isn't it rich?
Are we a pare?
Me here at last on the ground
You in me there
Send in the clowns
Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around?
One who can't move?
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Just when I stopped
Opening doors
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines
No one is there
Don't you love fuss?
My fault I fear
I thought that you'd want what I want
Sorry my dear
But where are the clowns
Quick send in the clowns
Don't bother there here
Isn't it rich?
Isn't it quirt?
Losing my timing this late
In my career
And where are the clowns
There are to be clowns
Well maybe next year
