ASTOUNDING as usual. Hope the long rumored mini tour of major world cities soon, turns out true. It would be such a Great treat for all her new fans inrecent years since she stopped touring alot several years ago. Saw her 10 times between 1980-1997, met her as fan and got an autograph one night outside Carnegie Hall late 1985. Yes I’m greedy. But this isn’t just any pop diva- it’s the worlds Best female vocalist from the 20th century still going strong. LONG LIVE DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY!

I have always loved your comments brother Dennis, and what a wealth of info you always shared of your long history on Dame Shirley. JAH bless you on your coming years. You know what us true fans know, there’s no one like her at all. Thanks for your kind words too.

OMG. Just watching the video gave me goosebumps. If I could just see her live once more I’d be content for the rest of my days. Wishing and hoping that she returns to the U.S.
