Get The Party Started was produced by
Catherine Feeney, Nikki Lamborn (Never The
Bride), Bob Kraushaar and Chuck Norman
(NorthxNWest) with backing vocals by Rietta
Austin, Margo Buchanan, Nikki Lamborn and
Catherine Feeney. The music video was
produced by Hera King and directed by Harvey
and Carolyn (Crossroads Films).
This song was written by Linda Perry and
originally recorded by Pink. Shirley sang it
for the M&S Christmas TV ad, filmed in a spy
movie style, and featured models Lizzy
Jagger, Erin O'Connor, Laura Bailey, Noemie
Lenoir and Twiggy as undercover agents on a
secret mission to attend an exclusive DSB
performance at a glamorous Christmas party.
It's difficult to know where to begin when it
comes to describing Dame Shirley's incredible
career which has spanned over 50 years.
Having just celebrated her 70th birthday and
a top ten UK album DSB proves age is no
barrier for creating great music.
The original Welsh Diva and one of Wales'
greatest musical exports, she stands tall
alongside fellow Welsh singers Charlotte
Church, Katherine Jenkins, Tom Jones, Cerys
Matthews, Dorothy Squires, Bryn Terfel and
Bonnie Tyler to name but a few.
During her career Shirley has also
collaborated with Swiss band Yello on The
Rhythm Divine. She sang with Chris Rea on his
Ferrari inspired film, La Passione, and
probably most famously with The
Propellerheads whose international club hit
History Repeating propelled her into the
spotlight. It featured on the soundtrack to
the movie There's Something About Mary
starring Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz and was
the music behind a Jaguar car ad.
Shirley is the only singer to have recorded
more than one James Bond Theme. She recorded
three! Applauded by John Barry, Sean Connery
and David Arnold, her hit records Goldfinger
and Diamonds Are Forever ranked as the two
best Bond themes ever in a recent poll, where
she comfortably beat fellow Bond singers such
as Tina Turner, Madonna, Paul McCartney, Matt
Monro, Gladys Knight, Sheryl Crow, Lulu and
Sheena Easton to the top spots. Casino Royale
star Daniel Craig recently suggested DSB
should record the next theme - after hearing
The Living Tree you can't help but see he's
got a point!
In recent years Shirley's recording of
Diamonds Are Forever was sampled by hip-hop
star Kanye West.
DSB has performed duets with acts such as
Neil Diamond, Andy Williams, Alain Delon,
Michael Ball, Bryn Terfel, Charles Aznavour,
Jack Jones, Robert Goulet and Eydie Gorme and
shared a stage with Ray Charles and Liza
Minnelli on a successful tour.
In an episode of American Idol (the US
equivalent to The X-Factor) contestants
Jordin Sparks, Lakisha Jones and Melinda
Doolittle all chose Shirley Bassey hits to
impress judges Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson
and Paula Abdul. Chris Sligh said "Shirley
Bassey rocks hard core" and presenter Ryan
Seacrest proclaimed that it was Dame Shirley
Bassey songs that ruled the night.

| Shirley Bassey - THIS IS MY LIFE |
 |
1996: Shirley Bassey SUPERB POWERFUL VOCAL
PERFECTION! She BELTED out this 5-STAR
PERFORMANCE of "This Is My Life" which is one
of my favorite renditions of this song.
SONG LYRICS:
Funny how a lonely day, can make a person
say:
What good is my life
Funny how a breaking heart, can make me start
to say:
What good is my life
Funny how I often seem, to think I'll find
never another dream
In my life
Till I look around and see, this great big
world is part of me
And my life
This is my life
Today, tomorrow, love will come and find me
But that's the way that I was born to be
This is me
This is me
This is my life
And I don't give a damn for lost emotions
I've such a lot of love I've got to give
Let me live
Let me live
Sometime when I feel afraid, I think of what
a mess I've made
Of my life
Crying over my mistakes, forgetting all the
breaks I've had
In my life
I was put on earth to be, a part of this
great world is me
And my life
Guess I'll just add up the score, and count
the things I'm grateful for
In my life
This Is my life
Today, tomorrow, love will come and find me
But that's the way that I was born to be
This is me
This is me
This is my life
And I don't give a damn for lost emotions
I've such a lot of love I've got to give
Let me live
Let me live
This is my life
This is my life
This is my life

| Shirley Temple - On The Good Ship Lollipop |
 |
On The Good Ship Lollipop
From the movie Bright Eyes (1934)
Lyrics/Music S.Clare & R.Whiting
-----
On the good ship lollipop
Its a sweet trip to a candy shop
Where bon-bons play
On the sunny beach of Peppermint Bay
Lemonade stands everywhere
Crackerjack bands fill the air
And there you are!
Happy landing on a chocolate bar
See the sugar bowl do the tootsie roll
With the big bad devils food cake
If you eat too much ooh ooh
You'll awake with a tummy ache
On the good ship lollipop
Its a night trip into bed you hop
And dream away
On the good ship lollipop
