In 1985 Dame Shirley Bassey gave a performance to help raise money for the 1986 Commonwealth games that were held in Edinburgh in Scotland. Dame Shirley sang four songs: Nobody does it like me, Arthur's theme, You ain't heard nothing yet and This is my life.
ABOUT 1974 LP - Nobody Does It Like Me:
Nobody Does It Like Me is a 1974 album by Shirley Bassey. Bassey had been on a roll since 1970, scoring three top ten singles and three ten top albums (and several other re-issues and compilations that sold well). Nobody Does It Like Me was recorded with a new producer, George Butler, and brought a partial return to the traditional pop sound of Bassey's pre-1970s career. She would never completely abandon the music that had been her forte, standards, showtunes, and torch songs, though these styles had been updated with fresh arrangements ever since the album that rejuvenated her career, 1970's Something. But here, the title track "Nobody Does It Like Me" and "When You Smile" harken back to the big band era. On other songs the brass section, the electric jazz guitar, the lush, soaring strings, and the electric bass guitar lines which hint of smooth jazz and soft rock, return the album to the adult contemporary genre. Bassey's soaring vocals on Paul Anka's "I'm Not Anyone" and the slighly funky "Morning in Your Eyes" contrast with a delicately rendered "Davy". The duet "Davy", recorded with the song's composer Bernard Ighner, is one of the rare occasions that Bassey would share the credits with another vocalist, it was also issued as a single and hit #44 on the US Adult Contemporary chart. The album closes with Stevie Wonder's You Are the Sunshine of My Life, a song which works both in the worlds of cabaret and pop, reflecting well her crossover appeal; however, entering into the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 or the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 was continuing to prove elusive, and for reasons that are unclear, this album failed to chart in the UK, and peaked at #142 in the US. It represents a hiccup in her assault on the charts in the 1970s, and perhaps reflects the influence and contributions of Noel Rogers and Johnny Harris, who produced her first five studio albums of the 70s but stepped down from those roles beginning with this album. But after her Japan-only released live album later this year, her next two albums would be top 15 albums in the UK.
LYRICS:
If there's a wrong way to say it,
and a wrong way to play it.
Nobody does it like me!
If there's a wrong way to do it,
A right way to screw it up!
Nobody does it like me!
I've got a big loud mouth,
I'm always talking much too free.
If you go for tact and manners,
better stay away from me!
If there's a wrong way to keep it cool,
a right way to be a fool,
Nobody does it like me!
I hear a love song or ballad,
I toss like a salad.
Nobody tosses like me!
And when my evenings get tougher,
I just take two bufferin'
And drink a hot cup of tea!
Last night I met an old acquaintance
at a fancy corner pub,
He said 'come on let's have some supper,'
then he used my credit-club!
If there's a wrong way take a guy
the worst way to make a guy!
Nobody does it like me!
If there's a wrong bell I ring it.
A wrong note I sing it!
Nobody does it like me!
If there's a problem I duck it.
I don't solve it I just muck it up!
Nobody does it like me!
And so I try to be a lady,
I'm no lady I'm a fraud!
And when I talk like I'm a lady,
What I sound like is a broad!
If there's a wrong way to get a guy,
the right way to lose a guy!
Nobody does it like me!
Nobody does it NO!
Nobody does it,
Nobody does it like me.
Nobody does it like me!

To F.L. Mackenzie: Dame Shirley Bassey is very much alive, and her latest CD just came out in November 2014, titled, 'Hello Like Before'. This CD includes a bunch of great songs from the past that she always wanted to record. Also, I recently uploaded a clip showing Shirley's 1961 Royal Variety Performance AND her 2014 RVP together. Check it out. After 61 Years in the Business, Dame Shirley STILL has THE VOICE! For some reason, I can't figure out why the 'Reply' button doesn't work on this clip. I have checked the settings and they are correct..Hope you receive this comment.
Shirley Bassey Music and Vids - IF you are NOT from the USA or Germany, you will also be able to view one of the songs from this CD, MacArther Park. You may remember Donna Summer's version in Disco. Shirley's version is the original arrangement, AND her vocals are STILL MAGNIFICANT...If you are able, Check it out!
