  • Aint she something!

  • AMAZING.

  • When she hits that high note & really lays into the rest around 2:44... no one else does that like her. While I certainly appreciate and have a soft spot for other famous singers with their own unique strengths, Barbra Streisand always be my vocalist numero uno. So, so glad I've gotten to hear her voice in my lifetime.

  • @bendmymind I couldn't have expressed it better.

  • Best ending to a song in HISTORY!

  • At this point she had only been singing for 2 1/2 years and before this she aspired to become an actress rather than a singer.

  • GOOD GOSH. SHE IS AMAZING

  • When my ex bought 9 tickets to see Barbra at $1500 a pop...my first comment was "if she doesn't sing When the Sun Comes Out", I hope you spend another $1500 for a cemetary plot". She didn't sing it but Before the Parade Passes By saved his life!

  • True performing genius.

  • could anyone tell me what's the title of the DVD in which this performance in 1965 was recorded??

  • @anaili77777 "My Name Is Barbra" The entire TV special is breathtaking! You absolutely must see it!

  • @ronaldsanfran thanks! :-)

  • @anaili77777 The DVD is "My Name is Barbra" which can be bought as a seperate title in some places, otherwise, there is the boxed set, which has all of the Streisand television specials.

  • @billygoyboyII Thank you! :-)

  • @anaili77777 You're quite welcome, I hope you endevour to purchase the set, and enjoy them, as much as I have!

  • @billygoyboyII I hope I find it first! :-)

  • @anaili77777 Borders should have the box set. Or, you may want to check out Amazon.com, for new, slightly used. Good luck!

  • @billygoyboyII  Thanks for all the information! :-))

  • @anaili77777 My pleasure! Anything to help out a fellow friend of Barbra!

  • don't know how many times I have seen this video... and every time I feel stunned because of this amazing performance, as if it is the first time I watch it.

  • OMG! GOOSEBUMPS! ALL! OVER!

  • sheer perfection she sung the hell out of that song.

  • Notice how it took about 50 seconds for her to warm up into the performance and the song- she has always said she sang higher when her stagefright was hitting her, then she would get comfortable and relax, and the Barbra we love and idolize would come forth to dazzle us.

  • never gets old. Genius

  • Compare this performance to the June, 1963 Ed Sullivan performance (here on YouTube)- her 1963 version is so much stronger, so much more emotional and stronger- probably because her stagefright hadn't hit her yet, and she wasn't yet singing 8 performances of "Funny Girl" on Broadway. What a difference 2 years makes. But they're both incredible, indelible performances- noone in the last part of the twentieth century compares to Barbra. We are honored to witness this gift.

  • Thing is with truly great singers, no 2 performances are EXACTLY alike! I love all her early stuff. No recording tricks, no fakey overdubs etc all of which even Barbra fell vivtim to as years went by to try and remain current. This early music is the pure talent which is RARELY seen today.

  • @PJCoan I dont think so.. around these times the 60 where on fire! your componists and singers where floating in creativity. here youvsee barbra changing pop music forever. instead of singing this song like Garland did back in the day

  • UNBELIEVABLE!!!! No useless runs, no wasted notes, yet SO MUCH soul!!! Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @fncz Yes, u just read my mind. All Soul without useless runs.

  • I love the moment at 2:59. I want to imagine Barbra thinking "damn, I'm f!@king amazing" and the flip of the hair just confirms it. Ms Streisand, I adore you!

  • She was born mature & gifted..what a gift Ms. Divine Steisand to us all who so love her music. She is such a soulful woman...amazing grace. Love to the one who posted!!! for giving us hours / days/ weeks/years of pleasure!!!

  • Absolute perfection.

    ~sPNation

  • cant get any sexier than that

  • so young and so nevouse!!!

  • Imagine if Barbra never existed until today as a 20 year old unknown girl that could sing and she did this song on u-tube. could you just imagine? I could see it now, 500 million Hit's! she would blow utube out of space!

  • Nice but she's no Miley Cyrus (LOL JUST KIDDING)  I was blown away by this. What is she, 18-19 here? Amazing.

  • I love how at the end of the performance she has to take a moment to compose herself and catch her breath. This is true singing...when you give every inch of your soul to expressing the emotion of a song. Barbra is one of a kind, a truly masterful vocalist. This gave me goosebumps!

  • Honey, surely she ist great but don't forget: 75% of singing live on stage is just for the looks ;-)

  • @brand929 ditto

  • @brand929 ditto

  • amazing and she looks beautiful <3 xx

  • best female artist ever. EVER

  • fucking amazing Barbra; just fucking! Bravo.

  • damn what a voice! She sang the hell out of that song. That silky smooth voice is just a gift. ANd she's so young and cute here.

  • @Tigerlily21 i was just going to type something complementary about Babs, but you said it first. and i concur with every word.

  • I love the end, she looks so powerful, I just love her

  • To quote Ethel Merman on The Judy Garland Show:" So, you're the new big belter in town."

  • Babs had red hair in Hello, Dolly and it looked terrific. :)

  • Genia total!

  • The most gorgeous and extraordinary performance ever made , her talent, maturity could never have been compared to some one else !

    The most clever and mature women and singer's of all times !

  • I love Barbra! She is fantastic...what a great perfformance!

  • I love how she gets so into her singing. Like she really feels the song. Do you know what I mean?

  • Yes I understand what you mean! and it's a wonderful rendition

  • one of the great things about Barbra as a singer if she "acts" her songs. She's an actress too and she becomes whatever song she sings. She said she sees them as characters. It's brilliant.

  • Yeah, I know what you're saying. =]

  • @Tigerlily21 I agree 100& with you!

  • When she turns to the right at very end of the song, she looks almost disappointed and I wonder

    if she was remembering her final higher note in her rendition of the song on the Sullivan show two years earlier. Both versions are brilliant.

  • Nah, she probably got winded

  • She did it better than this before? But this was perfection! I simply need to see that video!

  • Yea You're Right I Notice That Too, Where She Usually Hits The Final High Note In The End, But She Didn't On This One...But Still Amazing!

  • this is one of the best videos ive seen on her!!...she is simply amazing!...please dont erase it!!

  • There are three words to describe this: Classic, classic, and Classic.

  • This is the Barbra I love so much! Never anyone like her!

  • The Legend herself!!!

  • i love her so much that song is awesome and the performance was stunning and she looks gorgeous too xx

  • thank you for uploading this video!

    its my favorite!

    dont erase it please! jaja

    =)
