1962 (Here is a beautiful song from Shirley Bassey's 1962 LP titled, 'Let's Face The Music with Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra.
ABOUT this song:
"Everything I Have Is Yours" is a popular song. The music was written by Burton Lane, the lyrics by Harold Adamson. The song was published in 1933. It was first sung by Art Jarrett in the 1933 film Dancing Lady.
ABOUT the LP, Let's Face The Music:
Let's Face the Music is the sixth Shirley Bassey studio album, released in 1962, and arranged by Nelson Riddle. Kenneth Hume, Shirley Bassey's husband and manager wrote the sleeve notes for this album, in which he gives an insight into how this album came to being: "When Vic Lewis booked Nelson Riddle for a tour with Shirley, we were all very excited; being great fans of Nelson Riddle's from way back...so when someone suggested them doing an LP together, we thought that this would not be possible, remembering that Nelson was under contract with another recording company." Nelson Riddle was under contract to Capitol Records at the time, so Bassey's producer Norman Newell went about to secure his services for an album. While on the tour, Bassey, Riddle, and Bassey's music director Raymond Long discussed what form the album should take. Shortly after the tour was completed, the recording sessions began.
This album was issued in the US as Shirley Bassey Sings The Hit Song From "Oliver!" on the United Artists label, with a slightly different track listing and alternative recordings. "I Can't Get You Out of My Mind" was replaced by "As Long As He Needs Me", and "Imagination", "All of Me" and "All the Things You Are" appear on Oliver! in alternative versions. The alternative versions have not yet been released in the UK and are still not available on CD. The UK album was re-issued in 1971 as What Now My Love on the EMI Music For Pleasure (MFP) label, it reached number 17 in the UK album charts.
LYRICS:
Everything I have is yours
You're part of me
Everything I have is yours
My destiny
I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine
I would gladly give the earth to you
And the stars that shine
Everything that I posses
I offer you
Make my dream of happiness come true
I'd be happy just to spent my life
Waiting at your beck and call
Everything I have is yours
My life, my all
I'd be happy just to spent my life
Waiting at your beck and call
Everything I have is yours
My life, my all
