Here they are and what a performance it was! Dame Shirley & Blake singing Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire on tonight’s Graham Norton Show.For all of you you haven’t been able to watch it on tv. tonight. Dame Shirley looking gorgeous and sounding fabulous.
Lyrics:
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa’s on his way
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother’s child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
So I’m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it’s been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you
They know that Santa’s on his way
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother’s child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I’m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it’s been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
fantastic looking so young and elegant and still got that amazing voice hoping for good times to follow maybe a uk concert would put the icing on the cake

In my excitement I sent the last message before finishing! Dame Shirley is in a league of her own and has been for 60 years. Maybe just maybe we may be treated to a full Xmas album next year to celebrate her 80th – I wish!

Thank you Pieter. I agree with all the comments of my fellow DSB fans above. The program was altogether hilarious, and Blake and DSB were really outstanding. DSB and the gents looked very classy, and of course DSB added to the show with her unique sense of style, grace and down to earth sense of humor. Looks like it’s going to be another busy year ahead for DSB as she approaches her 79th birthday, and I couldn’t be happier for her and Blake. Looking forward to a new album, and short concert tours in the UK and NYC. May their charities continue to receive the needed funds for the children. Thanks again Pieter!

I think Shirley and Blake together are excellent and I enjoyed the interview when everyone was on sparkling form. They are on BBC 1 Christmas Day on `STRICTLY COME DANCING `
