Shirley Bassey - I'd Do It All Again (1972 Recording)

1972 - Shirley Bassey recorded and released this song on her 1972 Album titled, 'And I Love You So'. Shirley is well known for her big ballad vocal recordings, and this song is no exception. This tigress of Tiger Bay climbs up and down the scales with a passionate desperation, which is exactly what this song calls for. ABOUT the album, 'And I Love You So' And I Love You So is a 1972 album by Shirley Bassey. Released late in 1972 to positive reviews, this was Bassey's fourth album of the decade and was one of the albums which comprised her 'comeback' period of the 1970s. Unlike the earlier albums, this didn't feature any hit singles and consequently didn't fare as well as the previous three. It made No. 24, and remained on the chart for 9 weeks, reaching its peak on Christmas week, resulting in higher than average sales. Singles released were "And I Love You So" (a cover of the Don McLean hit) and "The Ballad of the Sad Young Men", although the CD liner notes considers tracks "If We Only Have Love" and "The Way of Love" to be stronger single choices. The title track did however become a UK top three hit some months later for Perry Como LYRICS: I said goodbye I said goodbye And sent you on the way I'm sorry now I'm sorry now Each long and lonely day I want you back I want you back Just like you used to be Although I know I loved you more than you loved me I'd do it all again I'd do it all again I'd walk the floor each night I'd cry myself to sleep I'd call myself a fool I'd suffer all the pain That loving you can bring And then and then I'd do it all again I'd swallow all my pride I'd run each time you call I'd crawl for just one kiss I'd tear myself apart But still I'd give my heart I'd do it all again Where are you now Where are you now I keep on wondering I'm still around I'm still around And still remembering If there's a chance One little chance That you are lonely too Well, here I am Yes, here I am Still wanting you I'd do it all again I'd do it all again I'd walk the floor each night I'd cry myself to sleep I'd call myself a fool I'd suffer all the pain That loving you can bring And then and then I'd do it all again I'd swallow all my pride I'd run each time you call I'd crawl for just one kiss I'd tear myself apart But still I'd give my heart I'd do it all again I'd do it all again I'd do it all again I'd do it all again
