Ballad of the Sad Young Men - Shirley Bassey

The therapist had me look this one up.  I thought the idea was to walk away from the razor blades...

He also had me look up "Remittance Men". Not pleasant either..

Time to go cheer up at Damn You, Auto Correct!

We Do Have Something Special For You My Friends...

Is it an actress singing or a singer acting...

Circa 1966:

Dressed as an ostrich
As, alas, we all used to...
But underneath the feathers a fantastic songstress...

How can I live through another day..

Now I am numb
I've become unreal
...
Only my last
Goodbye...

Here come the stars

Tumbling around me...
And on a Como Show!

And JG triumphant reinterpreting Fred Astaire:
circa 1965

I'll go my way by myself
This is the end of romance...

And then there is the Shirley Bassey:

In a very ta ta decolatage.

And yes, Jaeggers with Snarkangel always bring this out of me....
