I'm thinking entertainment for the next V-Flyer social, though maybe a tad expensive. First time I've heard this version and I gotta say I love it!!

Get The Party Started by Dame Shirley!

From the YouTube comments: "The woman is flat out RIDICULOUS! Is there anything she can't do? And, there's something wrong when a 70-year-old woman is that HOT! No, wait, nothing wrong at all..."

Other end of the spectrum (xz81?) here.

First time I heard it, my ears fell off in shock. I hate it.

All I can say is P!nk must be short of a buck or 2....

Whoa there Neil, I like it too! ;)

Saw her in concert in Brighton many years ago; she is a true entertainer and a real showmanwoman.

Another great performer of similar age is Tina Turner [y]

I think you've really hit the nail on the head there Bazz - she's an entertainer. Its not just about the voice, its the show, the energy and character - a great sense of fun.

Absolutely! The voice is great too though, she take a song and makes it her own and you feel she is singing it just for you.

Thanks for mentioning Tina Turner. One of the true greats, whose life hasn't exactly been a holiday. Perhaps this makes the best even better.

Isn't this an M&S advert? (Not having followed the link as on a dialup connection)

The link above is to the full music video, but it is also being used with an advert so I assume M&S.

Great one and a night out with DSB would be great - I've seen all of her concerts in London over the last ten years [:0]

Am definitely up for it

Like others have said DSB is a true entertainer, I just loved her glam wellies at Glasonbury. I also think Tina Turner is FAB too,
