That indeed was the authentic singer. Unlike today that belting out their vocal cords to the limit is soo irritating to try ears! We could not have called it singing but appropriately label it as shouting! 🤭
@@anafelucero2166 Absolutely agree. I'll go a few steps further and say that the so-called singers of today sound as if they're getting their hair pulled and are standing on hot coals - it's a mixture of wailing and screaming... NOT singing.
Most singers lose something off their top registers as they age but not Dame Shirley. If anything, she gets even better. And it's hard to get better than superb but she does. Incredible vocal power and precision.
Never be an era like this again , god bless parky , as for Shirley Bassey no one will ever ever ever emulate her voice and presence on a stage . I've had the pleasure of seeing Shirley live seven times and I will never ever forget those moments . The world was a much better place back then
Now that’s how to make an entrance! Literally had a lump in my throat. Dame Shirley’s star obliterates everyone around her. A stunning lady with a megawatt voice. A true British treasure on loan from Monte Carlo!
Whitney comes close, but Shirley stays consistent until past her golden age. She still sings as if she was in her 30's. Abaolutely amazing performance and closing!
Happy 2024 and Happy Birthday Dame Shirley Bassey! Congratulations on your recent OBE given by King Charles! We love and cherish you in the US. You are a study for these so-called young artists who are acknowledged for boosting the economy with billion dollar ticket sales but can't hold a candle to your vocal prowess and irresistible stage presence. May God bless you to stick around with us for many more years. ❤❤❤ 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇮🇱
68 years young during this performance. Phenomenal! Dame Shirley in an interview, contributed her vocal abilities and longevity to fitness, diet and sleep. She said she was fanatical going to the gym daily! I'm sure being blessed with good genes helped too. Dame Shirley Bassey is on class act!
That was f-ing incredible. Shirley Bassey's performance was so beautiful, powerful, and shows how the world(!) loves her beauty and one of a kind voice. ❤️ There will never be another like her.
watching this as a full grown 67 year old man and I am in sheds of tears, not only is the iconic Dame Shirley Bassey my idle but seeing her majesty looking so majestic and radiant reminds me we no longer have her, the UK and the world will never be the same without her, she was a one off and we miss her so very very much, thank the lord we still have our Dame Shirley
After mor than four decades when she sang it first (Goldfinger) there's the same magic about her; seems to me she's getting better and better. What an enormous voice and performance again in "The living Tree". And this is written on October 27th in 2019. Dame Shirley, we do love you !!
Ah, SO good to see the comments below. I grew up with Shirley Bassey vinyls being played on the old record player. What a truly amazing performer, story teller artist. A stunning virtuoso vocalist. In a class apart & not seen in this day/age anymore.
I'm a music addict, especially music that actually 'says' something, and which are both expressive and meaningful. I'm s pianist and if people ask me who my favourite vocal female artist is, it takes a nanosecond to say Dame Shirley Bassey. Every time I think I can't be more impressed I discover something new. Besides her humbleness and stage performance and class she communicate in song what I cannot otherwise. Her personal history is also captivating. May I say I worship her?
Always gives me goosebumps when I listen to the finale- love it when one of those twins just goes WOW, when she’s finished singing- Dame Shirley- amazing! ❤️❤️
A great Finalé !! Even though the Trapdoor Lift halted, then restarted, as Shirley was singing the closing number !! But that's LIVE productions for You !!! 👍🏻😀
Wot a voice! 'The Living Tree' would have made a superb James Bond theme. Shirley is as brilliant as ever. She could even make the Australian national anthem sound good.
You know, just looking at her, you wouldn't think such a powerhouse voice could come from her. Shirley Bassey gives me goosebumps no matter what she sings. She is both beautiful and fanfreakingtabuloustic!
No need to turn up the volume here! Young ladies: get your singing technique (my what?) up to level! A true gem, a legend! (P.S.: and those twins are sooo cute!) "The Living Tree"' is per se a singing lesson by its sheer volume, amplitude and breath support! Peerless and unmatched!

Absolutely dear: she is and will remain unmatched forever!
Perfectly said! "The Living Tree" is incredible.
Old excellent tresures remain!And Shirley Bassey is one of those.May her voice continue echoing!Congratula toins

Especially when she doesn’t even need a mic lol! She’s such a powerhouse. Simply amazing.
Nobody does it better..she is the standard of all the standards...
Yes, SHE IS MAME SHIRLEY, Now and FOREVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was one of the most impressive finales I can remember of a Royal Variety Performance that I can remember.

i saw whitney at blossom outside cleveland oh and your right S.B IS THE BEST
Bassey in her day she was the best entertainer in the world God bless you Dame Shirley
Bassey is still in her day.
Not many stars get a standing ovation but Dame Shirley always takes the roof off. Looks fabulous as always too
What a star Bassey is- no one can touch her
But Alas most will only wake up to what we see after she's gone 😢
Where the fk u plan on taking the Dame leave her where she belongs right there on stage 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

Wot a voice! 'The Living Tree' would have made a superb James Bond theme. Shirley is as brilliant as ever. She could even make the Australian national anthem sound good.
I always thought that, would’ve been a perfect bond theme!
