Goldfinger: Bassey's Bum Notes Empty

Shirley Bassey has rerecorded Goldfinger. The diva reckons she sang a couple of bum notes in the original:

Quote :
In an interview on Evans’ Big Welsh Weekend on Friday afternoon, the Goldfinger singer reveals she’s spent the past 50 years thinking there were two wrong notes in her original version of the James Bond theme song.

She said: “Everyone’s going to be listening for those two wrong notes in the original now!

“To me they always sounded wrong; I could never get it right in my head although my musical directors through the years have said there’s nothing wrong with them.

“But we’ve lowered the song and I can’t hear those wrong notes anymore. I’m so glad we’ve got to record it again.”

Can anyone here be arsed to find the new and old versions and post them here so we can compare them? Dame Shirl's reputation depends on it.

I can’t think of a bad note at all. Perhaps she was thinking of the single re-recording?
