Shirley Bassey's title track to Goldfinger was such a smash that she was invited to sing the title track to a second James Bond movie, the first artist to do so. She delivers her formidable voice as before, but the song didn't make as big an impact, and neither did the movie. Bassey also sang the title song for the Bond Moonraker, which was the fourth film starring Roger Moore as James Bond.
This was written by John Barry and Don Black, who worked on the music for many of the James Bond films.
"A Diamond Is Forever" is the tagline used by the De Beers mining company to market diamonds, and Ian Fleming adapted it for his 1956 Bond novel Diamonds Are Forever. The title was retained, though not much of the plot was used for the 1971 movie.
