Goldfinger

“Goldfinger” was the title song from the 1964 James Bond film Goldfinger. Composed by John Barry and with lyrics by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley, the song was performed by Shirley Bassey for the film’s opening and closing title sequences, as well as the soundtrack album release. The release on vinyl of Bassey's (mono) version sold more than a million copies in the United States.

Shirley Bassey performs "Goldfinger"


Shirley Bassey’s gutsy performance nearly never was. Goldfinger’s lyrics were co-written by Leslie Bricusse and singer Anthony Newley, and it was Newley who made the original recording. A light jazz version in which he delivers the lyrics in a sinister whisper was included on 1992’s 30th-anniversary album, The Best of Bond.
