1987 (Just another rendition of this classic song by vocal powerhouse, Shirley Bassey!) This clip, Shirley performs in Berlin celebrating the city's existence for 750 years)

Shirley first recorded and released the song, I Who Have Nothing' as a Columbia Single in 1963.

ABOUT the song:

"I (Who Have Nothing)" is based on the Italian song "Uno dei tanti," (English: "One of Many") with music by Carlo Donida and lyrics by Giulio "Mogol" Rapetti.[1] "Uno dei tanti" was released by Joe Sentieri in 1961. The lyrics for "I (Who Have Nothing)" were translated into English by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. Shirley Bassey released the song (produced by George Martin) in September 1963, reaching #6 on the UK charts. She performs the song at almost every live concert she gives, and it is on many of her compilation albums, including I Am What I Am with the London Symphony Orchestra, and her 1989 album La Mujer where she sings it in Spanish ("Hoy No Tengo Nada"). She has also been instrumental in making Donida's music known to English speaking audiences through arranging for translations from the Italian, having performed with the composer conducting his own music on Italian television.

LYRICS:

I, I who have nothing

I, I who have no one

Adore you and want you so

I'm just a no one,

with nothing to give you but oh

I love you

You, you buy her diamonds

Bright, sparkling diamonds

But believe me, dear, when I say

That she can give you the world

(sometimes: That you can give her the world)

But she'll never love you the way

I love you

You can take her any place she wants

To fancy clubs and restaurants

But I can only watch you

with My nose pressed up against the window paneI,

I who have nothing

I, I who have no one

Must watch you, go dancing by

Wrapped in the arms of somebody else

When darling it is I

Who love you

I Love You....

I Love You...

I Love You........

How come she sang so few of the great ballads that were available to her from the times she lived in? That is the greatest of all mysteries and what a loss for us all!
