Shirley sang "a song" called "The Wall". Pink Floyd has "an album" called "the Wall", but not a song. It's not Pink Floyd. I think its from sometime in the 1950's.

>thinking caps on!<

The song is from around 1959, so as you say isnt a copy of Pink Floyd.
During one of her visits to America Shirley recorded in New York under the direction of Mitch Miller, and it is from that session that the song "The Wall" is taken. This makes me think that it was Shirley Bassey that sang it originally

Chap above me is correct. Johnny Cash sang a song called the Wall. Lyrics below. Can't find any evidence though that Shirley Bassey ever sang this song though?

Lyrics for Song: The Wall
Lyrics for Album: At Folsom Prison

Theres a lot of strange men in cell block ten
But the strangest of them all
Was a friend of mine who spent his time staring at the wall
Staring at thewall

As he stared at that wall so strong and tall
You could hear him softly curse nobody at all
Ever climbed that wall but i'm gona be the first
Yeah i'm gona be the first

The warden walked by and said son don't try
I'd hate to see you fall
For there is no doubt they'll carry you out
If you ever touch that wall
If you ever touch that wall

Well a years gone by since he made his try
But I can still recall
How hard he tried and the way he died
But he never made that wall
He never made that wall

Theres never been a man ever shook this can
But I know a man who tried
The newspapers called it a jail break plan
But I know it was suicide
I know it was suicide
