Hard core Beatles fans don't get upset ...
But Miss Shirley Bassey kicks ass singing "Hey Jude". One of the few standing ovations at a Royal Variety Performances ever.

1. To be honest, I expected to see something about Oasis in here.

2. Shirley Bassey can sing anything she wants.
A good performer knows how to work it into her own tune.

4. I'm sorry, but that was painful to watch...
Every torch-song cliche in the book tossed in.

Great voice, yes, but covering Hey Jude, not so much...

Score One for Paul McCartney...

6. She should do "Don't Look Back in Anger" to balance it out.
