This is the first studio album from Shirley Bassey since bad diagnosis in 1995. Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of Shirley Bassey on ‘Goldfinger’. Shirley Bassey’s debut, ‘Sings the Movies’, does not fit easily into one genre. This album is in perfect progression from Shirley Bassey!
You can find feelings on this piece of art. Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do) (4:25) - awsome. I think Love On The Rocks is the best song Shirley Bassey has ever done. Eleanor Rigby is a song that takes you on the journey before it reaches the conclusion. Let’s Stay Together is the marvelous blend of moody yet optimistic tunes. Rose is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. We Don’t Need Another Hero is probably one of Shirley Bassey’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to. It is succeeded by an outstanding track, however: Do You KNow Where You’re Going To, which shows, blatantly, how much Shirley Bassey has evolved as a singer. The sound of It Must Have Been Love is difficult to describe, as it seems to squirm in a sensual manner, unlike anything ever created. Try A Little Tenderness - a classic song. Shirley Bassey is hitting on all cylinders in Hopelessly Devoted To You. Awesome song is really all that you can say about it. Who Wants To Live Forever is one of the more up-tempo songs on Sings the Movies.
