Ahhhhhhhh, after the last post...this is much better and put me in a good mood. Besides ABBA , I think Dame Shirley also always put me in a good mood too. It occurred to me, I didn't recall ever hearing a Christmas song sung by Dame Shirley Bassey so off I went.....and to my delighted gay heart......
Dame Shirley sings, The Christmas Song with Blake, a British singing trio...Ollie Baines, Stephen Bowman and Humphrey Berney...who hail from the UK and are renowned for performing classical and pop songs in stunning harmony vocal arrangements. The three men who enthrall fans, and yours truly now after tonight, with their amazing singing, charismatic presence and not to mention good looks. I must say, the Dame must have loved them too...I never saw her so animated singing before.
Much better mood tonight. Thanks to all. I'm now getting out my birds and sorting my balls for the tree.
Oh that version is amazing. I'm going to look and see if it is available on iTunes. Simply simply put me in the holiday spirit.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard this version. Bassey belts it out like no one else!
ReplyDeleteI love the red. Everything needs a little red.
Everyone looks like they're having the time of their lives making music with her, even the orchestra!
ReplyDeleteSlowly getting my tree up.
ReplyDeleteStay Safe and Coffee is on
Just wonderful, Dame Shirley Bassey together with these wonderful guys, wish there were some more! Yet another group you have introduced me too. I love the whole vibe of Blake.
ReplyDeleteDame Shirley has the most incredible Blessing of Voice that I have ever heard in my 56 years of life, and I of course love Judy Garland, Bette Midler, and others,but , but, yet Dame Shirley takes the Cake!
ReplyDeleteAnd don't get me started on Blake!
your balls are ALWAYS out and ready! I am writing this at 1a wednesday morning; I will listen to the video in the morning; everyone else is asleep.
ReplyDeleteBassey is simply breath taking, and Blake is great too. Huge fans of both. I love how happy Oliver Baines looks while singing. That smile! What a great performance of this song.
ReplyDeleteSo Exceptional. They sound beautiful together. As a musician, with her on the stage, I would be sitting there with my cello between my legs and forget how to play, lol!!! I give them credit to share a stage with her.
ReplyDeleteOMG, absolutely fantastic! Your the first person I've seen that has mentioned Blake. Been a long fan of theirs.
ReplyDeleteChills. Brilliant. Who is that Shirley anyway? She's pretty good.
ReplyDeleteDame Shirley you never cease to impress! Wow! To still sound so powerful at 83 years of age, Magnificent! Truly an ageless gem!
ReplyDeleteThat voice! She's fantastic. And this is the kind of xmas music I could get used to.
ReplyDeleteAs for the balls, honey, we know blue is not your color....
XOXO
Your getting to know the man well....I don't think he ever had blue balls a day in his life.
DeleteWouldn't mind seeing them hit their crescendo... Jx
ReplyDeletePS All hail Dame Shirl!
Her voice is so warm, rich, and powerful! And oh those harmonies. I'm sure many of your followers would enjoy sorting balls with you. Have a great time! So glad your spirits are lifting!
ReplyDeleteNice balls
ReplyDeleteOh, wow!! Love this! And who are these guys singing with her??????
ReplyDeleteMaddie, I would love to sort balls with you. They sure wouldn't be blue by the time we were done!
Lots of talent!
ReplyDeleteDidn't know of this 'Blake' trio. Boy, what teeth!
ReplyDeleteI only just discovered them...handsome... and yes, very teethy!
