1971 (Shirley Bassey recorded this off-beat/up-beat POP song track on her 1971 LP titled, 'Something Else'. I have listened to this song quite a few times, and it really has grown on me. It is an different style of song, with sensual overtones, and it works for this Tigress of Tiger Bay. <br /> <br />ABOUT the LP, Shirley Bassey - Something Else: <br />Something Else is a 1971 album by Shirley Bassey. Following-up her comeback album Something, this proved to be almost as big when it too made the UK top 10, peaking at No.7. The album contained the hit single "(Where Do I Begin?) Love Story" as well as a non-charting second release "Breakfast in Bed". The success of this album and Shirley Bassey in general at this period saw a rush of compilations and older albums entering the UK charts in late 1971, with five albums appearing over the space of three months. In 1972, Bassey was the subject of This is Your Life where guest Liberace made mention of this album and in particular "Excuse Me". <br /> <br />The gatefold photograph features Bassey wearing a chiffon catsuit. The early 1970s would see Bassey wearing some of her most revealing stage costumes, as reflected on the cover. In France, the album was released as Love Songs with an alternative sleeve and also featured the song "For All We Know". Something Else was released on vinyl and cassette in stereo. It was re-issued on CD in 1999 by EMI with two bonus tracks; "For the Love of Him" was originally the B-side of "(Where Do I Begin) Love Story", while "Vehicle", recorded in February 1971, remained unreleased until 1994. <br /> <br />LYRICS: <br />You've been crying, your face is a mess <br />Come here baby <br />You can dry the tears on my dress <br />She's hurt you again, I can tell <br />Oh, I know that look so well <br /> <br />Don't be shy <br />You've been here before <br />Pull your shoes of, lie down <br />And I will lock the door <br /> <br />And no one has to know <br />You've come here again <br />Darling, it'll be <br />Like it's always been before <br />Come over here <br /> <br />Breakfast in bed and a kiss or three <br />You don't have to say you love me <br />Breakfast in bed, nothing need be said <br />Ain't no need <br /> <br />What's your hurry? <br />Please don't eat and run <br />You can let her wait <br />My darling, it's been so long <br /> <br />Since I've had you here <br />You can come again <br /> Darling, it will be <br />Like it's always been before <br /> <br />Just a little breakfast in bed and a kiss or three <br />You don't have to say you love me <br /> Breakfast in bed, nothing need be said <br />Ain't no need <br /> <br />Breakfast in bed and a kiss or three <br />You don't have to say you love me
