695 Shirley Bassey (1937- ) “Goldfinger Theme” 1964

“producer Harry Saltzman complained about the song, phoning John Barry saying it was terrible and asking if it could be replaced. After the song soared to Number One, Saltzman had to eat his words…The song was also a triumph for Shirley Bassey—she was catapulted into super-stardom” (Jack Becker, et al, James Bond in World and Popular Culture, 2011).
