Shirley recorded and released the song, 'With One Look' on her 1993 CD titled, 'Shirley Bassey Sings The Songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber'
ABOUT - Sings The Songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber CD:
This album saw Bassey briefly return to her old label EMI; the album was issued by EMI on the Music For Pleasure Premier label. All songs on this album are from the pen of Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber. This is the first, and to date the only Songbook album that Shirley Bassey has recorded and released. In her early recording career she had recorded many songs from the Great American Songbook, but unlike Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and many other artists, she had never recorded a complete album of songs by one composer. The songs on the album are all taken from the popular musicals of Andrew Lloyd Webber, that he wrote with various lyricists. The oldest song found on the album is from the 1971 musical Jesus Christ Superstar which originally opened on Broadway in October of that year. Bringing it up to date the album also includes two songs from Sunset Boulevard which had recently premiered on July 12, 1993 in London's West End.
Two songs had previously been recorded by Shirley Bassey, "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" in 1978 for the album The Magic Is You, and "Memory" which had been recorded for the B-side of the European single "That's Right" in 1984. Several TV performances and interviews were made by Bassey to promote this album. The album entered the UK Albums Chart on December 4, 1993 and peaked at number 34.
LYRICS - With One Look:
With on look
I can break your heart
With one look
I play every part
I can make your sad heart sing
With one look you'll know
All you need to know.
With one smile
I'm the girl next door
Or the love that you've hungered for
When I speak it's with my soul
I can play any role
No words can tell
The stories my eyes tell
Watch me when I frown
You can't write that down
You know I'm right
It's there in black and white
When I look your way
You'll hear what I say.
Yes, with one look
I put words to shame
Just one look
Sets the screen aflame
Silent music starts to play
One tear from my eye
Makes the whole world cry.
With one look
They'll forgive the past
They'll rejoice: I've returned at last
To my people in the dark
Still out there in the dark...
Silent music starts to play
With one look you'll know
All you need to know.
With one look
I'll ignite a blaze
I'll return to my glory days
They'll say Norma's back at last.
This time I'm staying
I'm staying for good
I'll be back
Where I was born to be
With one look
I'll be me...
LYRICS - When I Fall In Love:
When I fall in love,
It will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love.
In a restless world like this is,
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun.
When I give my heart,
It will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart.
And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way, too,
Is when I fall in love with you.
And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way, too,
Is when I fall in love with you.

Does nobody want to talk about the fact how Dame Shirley literally grabs him to her!! Nobody? Okayy...

Whilst this is outstanding, I prefer Glenn Close, even if she's a weaker singer. And her performance at ALW's birthday bash at the RAH is mesmerising.
