I just thought Bassey was in complete control of that performance, and dominated the entire room. It felt like no one had a choice but to stand in awe at the end.

Good call - I remember wondering why her singing was being "drowned out" as well.
I also believe the two songs are so different no matter who sings them Goldfinger will always be the song which allows for more impact. That last note by Dame Shirley was intense!
