Hey Barbra Is SOOOO talented and Idina Is extremley talented too..... their is no reason for the bashing! I love them both andi rather listen to them than 9.33flz and Im 14! So cut her some slack!
Barbra sings this simply superbly ! Even the way her voice cracks a little when she's crying is just pure talent and un-beatable!! So amazing <3 funny girl
omg you hating glee idiots!!!!! be happy that they brought a new generation to streisand in a positive manner rather the woman from "you dont mess with the zohan" or the duck sauce song. and for the 2345676536787678th time , glee didnt cover it! this song was covered by a guest star, a broadway goddess: Idina Menzel.
This breaks my heart. So gorgeous. The rest of the movie is really upbeat and funny, but I love this part because it shows how much depth Barbra has as a performer. She reaches out to people with her voice. I think every girl has felt like a "Funny Girl" at some point in her life.
Thank you SO much, I really couldn't agree more; every feels the need to make a Glee comment and just watch the video and appreciate for what it is. ^_^
To me she is one of the most beautiful people in the world. Inside and out. I also don't see why people make fun of people who have big noses. It's like they have nothing better to do with their lives. why can't we accept each other for who they are!
lover her... Barbra did it all (singing,dancing, and acting) and could probably come back and do it again, to show all these wannabe artists their place..... below her.
and maybe I be wrong for the guy - I'm good for a laugh - I guess it's not funny- life is far from sunny - when the laugh is over- and the jokes unnew .......
funny girl - funny how it ain't sooooooooooooooo funny - funny girl !!!!!!
and maybe I be wrong for the guy - I'm good for a laugh - I guess it's not funny- life is far from sunny - when the laugh is over- and the jokes unnew .......
Seeing this after so many years, it comes as a shock to hear Barbra's young voice. She sounds so very very young, which of course she was back in 1968-69. Interesting to think of every major triumph that would follow in the next 41 years of her astonishing career. Unparalleled absolutely for its brilliance.
I love Idina, but this is one of Barbra's songs. It was an excellent tribute but is incomparable with the original, just like Babs will never be able to nail "Defying Gravity" like Idina can. ;)
@DEgreeniFYgravity ..hmmm like what you're saying ..however, Barbara's final note of DEFYING GRAVTY would of lasted about 40 seconds longer than Idina's ..I love Idina ..but Barbara could nail any song...............ANY SONG!!!!!
@peterdeeclark I don't think barbara has the kinda voice to sing D.G well, you need that Pop type belt to your voice to sing any Elphaba song IMO, i'm not sayin she can't get the notes, but I feel her voice is too classical- flavoured to sing D.G.
@peterdeeclark Actually, although I agree that Barbra is amazing and has an incredible range, I have yet to hear her hit an high F, and Idina nails it every time.
@DEgreeniFYgravity not now no..but listen to the album Barbara Streisand and other musical instruments..every note in there known to man and then some and a magnificent 21 second belt at the end of "I got Rythymn"
I don't think anyone, Idina Menzel or Lea Michele or anyone, no matter how ~magical or talented they are, can sing this song with as much emotion and subtle intensity as Barbra Streisand. This song was meant for her, and she kills it for everyone else (in the best way, of course).
@chocolateapple True. But, i think Idina Menzel came damn close to nailing it perfectly (although, i am a huge Idina fan). There is, after all, only one Barbra Streisand :)
so great performance in combination with the film scene. She realize that all hopes for a good end of her realtionship is gone and she begins to sing.... great ever
@Negzn They're not supposed to measure up. They are a tribute to her greatness and I, for one, am glad that young kids are paying tribute to this great legend.
I love how her voice is so small in this scene, yet she continues to carry the pitch. Idina Menzel was amazing, and Barbra is amazing. I love both, in their own separate way.
Well, in most cases the original is better than anything else. But in this particular case, I feel like Idina Menzel knocked this song out of the park.
Aparently Glee did this? But in my opinion this scene and this song are so beautiful and PERFECT to sum of Fanny's feeling at the moment <3 ADORE funny girl more than ANYTHING
Great scene! Love the legendary barbara. But, I guess people seem to forget the man who just knocked off the door in the beggining of the scene, the legendary "Omar charif".
i love Idina Menzels version, i saw hers first. Yet with Barbra Streisands version, i can feel the emotion more, its just something about her that puts me in the moment, love both versions and these women have beautiful voices but i love this one a bit more <3
I like this version and the Glee version, Idina's version isn't as great and emotional as this one but she didnt ruin the song, so props to her for that
No one sings the song like Barbra......not all songs are meant to be belted out, although she has many songs that require belting as well... this is just pure singing...her control, phrasing, the way she slides from note to note is unbelievable, breath control.....the list goes on.... speaking of Idina.....Barbra is one of her, if not her idol.....that is from her mouth.....
wow.. people are really critical and opinionated about this video.. i guess this is a gr8 song sung by 2 gr8 singers.. thats it.. just enjoy it guys.. (just sayin)
@FoggyRoad81: Relax, take a breath. It's merely my opinion. Maybe I just like the choices Idina Menzel made with her voice on the song. Touchy touchy.
@deanher84 This is what bugs me about these Glee fans. They compare a recording made in 1968 with the auto tune enhanced performances done in studios in 2010. Whats also silly is that they don't understand anything about music making itself. The thing that makes Barbra so good theatrically are the choices she makes with her VOICE. She is able to color her voice with many colors and variations. She has total control. Ms Menzel is trying for this, not surpassing it in anyway.
Barbra is the greatest female singer the world has ever seen. Just watch her sing this live, it's breathtaking. No one will EVER sing this song or any other song, for that matter, better than Babs.
I think that because barbra doesn't belt it out an she has a softer voice in this song that's what gives it the emotion I think an she is just amazing
song starts at 0:37 for anyone wanting to skip to it
