Shirley Bassey - This Time (2009 Live) скачать видео бесплатно

2009 (Shirley's Stickley Come Dancing TV Appearance, UK - Gary Barlow wrote this song especially for Shirley!)

Dame Shirley recorded and released this track on her 2009CD titled, 'The Performance'

ABOUT this Song:

This is a track from the Welsh vocalist DIVA Dame Shirley Bassey's album, The Performance, her first studio LP of new songs in several years.

This song was penned for Dame Shirley by Take That songwriter Gary Barlow. He recalled to The Daily Mirror: "I had to go to the studio and sing it to her; it was so nerve-racking. I came up with the song by going on Wikipedia and looking back over her life. She's an amazing woman."

Barlow appeared with the Diva in a BBC TV documentary in November 2009 in which he said it took him some time to perfect the song. It was reminiscent of Rodgers & Hammerstein, and uses the 6th, which he described as "a very old fashioned note" [meaning, obviously, the interval], adding "I've been wanting to do one for years".

"This Time" had to be edited considerably, but in the end as musical director Mike Dixon said, it stopped being his song and became her song.

LYRICS:

No more crying for help, no more blaming myself

Hypnotized, too much figuring out

Too much standing my ground

No pride left to be proud, only fear

Didn't know who it was in the mirror last night

So I left here with nothing to lose

Every step didn't just take me further away

Every step took me closer to finding you

I know this time's the time, the time for love

And it's right here in front of my eyes

I know this time's the time

You only get once in your life

No more trying to break free, no more apologies

No more finding my feet just to fall

Every dream didn't just take me further away

Every dream took me closer to finding you

I know this time's the time, the time for love

And it's right here in front of my eyes

I know this time's the time

You only get once in your life

Left a lot of courage behind

That I won't be needing this time

'Cause I can be true

I can be one, I can be strong

I know this time, the time

You only get once in your life

I know this heart's the heart, the heart I'm keeping

For the love I thought I'd never find

I know this times forever

For worse and for better

This time, this time

This time

This time

This time
