Barbra Streisand - My Man

[turkeypopcorn]

WERK!!!!

[MrsRickyRicardo]

Lea Michele is just a Glee singer.

Barbra Streisand is a music legend.

Seriously, if you think that Lea's version is better than Barbra's or you have serious problems or you're just a Glee fan that think it is the best thing ever.

Oh wait.

Both means the same thing.

[purplepinguino]

damn girl, get itttt

[MrSMILEYSQUARE]

Im excited for tge day when Babara and Lea preform this together :)

[teddybear2teddy]

no one is better than anyone they are all original

[Natinha124]

Barbra was crying so much, but she's amazing anyway ! (now change Barbra for Lea, and read my coment again)

[elenazarate64]

literally cried. my idol right there!

[Moony385]

PEOPLE CALM DOWN, BOTH LEA AND BARBRA ARE AMAZING :D

[Gomithha1]

Lea Michele is better but shes the original :D

But Lea Is Better

[micheleleetaylor]

@Gomithha1 HOW. DARE. YOU.

[PhillyC187]

my husband has called me his funny girl

[belle6900]

people shut up rachel didnt sing the song 2 seem better than barbra she sang it because she likes barbra besides its not that big a deal anyway they are both amazing and talented thats all i have 2 say about it

[BlahBluh88]

@Artsydrawer16 Unlucky you, Lea singed this, she was amazing.The original is sure much better. But their purpose isn't to ruin these songs or singing it better! Their purpose is to protect the worth of these legendary songs and amazing voices. Not just you, all the other people who insults Glee because of doing a cover of these songs. Now please shut your mouth up and let us enjoy the music.

[BlueEyedGleekGirl]

@BlahBluh88 I totally agree with you. You know, if I hadn't heard Lea sing this on Glee, I probably would have never listened to it. But, now that I have, I really enjoy both versions of it. :)

[Andreilla23393]

@Artsydrawer16 they do it......

[sugarlovesspice1]

she still gives me goosebumps...every time i hear her sing.

[peerkbh]

@Artsydrawer16:

Well, you know - they did! And it's here on Youtube

[InhopesofJuliard]

I absolutely bawled at this point. Something about her performance just made you feel everything!

[LynnNicoleMusic]

@Artsydrawer16 they did):

[JsingB]

SCREW RACHEL!!! Barbra kicks her BUTT :D and this makes me cry every time I hear it :')

[juxmook]

@JsingB You guys wanna stop comparing them? It's getting fucking annoying -.-

[JsingB]

@juxmook I was just pissed that people said Rachel was better... people can have a point of view cant they??? :)

[KellyGarciaChannel]

I have this song on my iPod, so I connect it to the dock . I turn up the music, put my hair up and wear a dress. I love her music. She's my idol.

[webiestgirl6678]

i cried when they broke up D:

[mcrohof]

Goodness me - Barbra even sings Judy Garland under the table with this cosmic explosive performance; this is unmatched.

[paige3406]

Good fucking God Barbra

[AKix32296]

So sad. Amazing movie. I am auditioning with this song for a play. It gives me chills when I sing it.

[RaiUchiha12]

Rachel Berry or Barbra Streisand based from this performance ?

[bydamouf]

@RaiUchiha12 Definitely Barbra. I really love how Rachel sang this song, but Barbra will always be my #1.

[nati0722]

@RaiUchiha12 barbra is great but I prefer Rachel Berry :)

[moonbeam700]

amazing. i've never heard it sung more beautifully <3

[IndiaArieforever]

Barbra Streisand is my role model. She taught me that you can't let anyone stop you from reaching your dreams. Just look at this killer performance!

Her talent redefined what beauty is. <3

[dlr4767]

In the Broadway version o Funny Girl, she sings His Is The Only Music (Can Make Me Dance). But this song was Fanny Brice's song - that is, Fanny Brice actually sang this song. It was appropriate that Ms. Streisand sang it and with such emotion. Check out Fanny Brices version.

[matt036]

I love coming onto Barbara Streisand videos and such just to read all the comments from you old queens.

I love you all haha

[pretty6465]

it's very very cool!!!!Barbra, you are the best!

[superfreektv]

<3

[BTRlover45]

@purelife961 No, 4 people don't know good singing when they hear it! Barbra's amazing!

[Novbaby33]

Best of all best! She's SO Gorgeous

[ericaweisman]

I have actually been watching this over and over again for the past two hours....

[iizzyy96]

Sends shivers down my spine.

[LiveLaughLove6521]

this need more views than 61,616....

[s4odon1]

The mistake in the Lea Michele performance was on the part of the musical director. In Funny Girl, the CHARACTER is unable to sing at the beginning of the number because she's overcome with emotion. But when Rachel comes out on stage, says (cutely) that she's going to sing the closing number from Funny Girl, and then be suddenly tearful means she's FAKING the emotion. For that reason, although she is always technically very strong, Lea gives a performance that is ultimately unsatisfying.

[grub1994]

@s4odon1 and you have no clue what ur talking about. what u just said made ZERO sense. u can introduce a performance how u want and then bring up emotion on the spot, its called acting. and due to the fact that barbra was in like the middle of a show she already had the emotion coming, where lea wasnt in the middle of a show so its not an equal comparison. and as an actor i have often to perform a dramatic monologue where i have to introduce my piece and jump right into the emotion. its acting.

[Augustchica814]

Wow.... lol



[lisawithane2x2]

@Augustchica814 how can you say lol at barbra sining about loveing a man so dearly she'll never let go. You do know that means laugh out loud this is not i repeat NOT a laughing song. I tear up a little myself. I think thats an insult to babra

[Augustchica814]

@lisawithane2x2 Excuse me but it's not an insult actually. I was saying WOW because she's amazing. I just laughed because I always do that and I can keep doing all I want; if you don't like it then ignore me. The only insult here is you spelling her name wrong. *walks away*

[grub1994]

@Augustchica814 um he/she didnt spell her name wrong? thats how BARBRA spells her name as you can see from the title of the video and EVERY OTHER video on youtube featuring BARBRA streishand.

[Augustchica814]

@grub1994 read it again. he/she put BAbra  K thanks :)

[mcfcatholic]

I'm sorry Lea Michele. I'll admit Lea did a great job, but if it wasn't for the brilliance, the grace, the voice, and the POWER of Barbra Streisand, well...Lea would have had no one to look up to. :D

It's like Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble. There would be NO Michael Buble without Frank Sinatra. Nothing compares to the original. Yes, there's some nostalga in that opinion, but COME ON...it's BARBRA. Half of the songs Lea sings on Glee Barbra did live!

[corystube]

Such a heart wrenching song especially if you've seen Funny Girl. It's like you feel exactly how she felt. I think the Glee version is the best glee cover so far. You really felt Rachael's pain just like you feel Barbra's.

[deepswimms]

They just don't make em like that anymore. She's breathtaking!

[folledechant]

Amazing! <3

[PinkPjs26]

Best part of this? This is COMPLETELY live. Not pre-recorded. Can Barbra get any better?

[witchmusic]

@PinkPjs26 I saw on an interview that she tried but she couldn't feel it. She couldn't cry or do anything. I was soooooo mved. I love her.

[brinaz989]

Love it!! but...i the the Glee version is better but still love it!

[Philip7300]

2 people aren't my man.

[TheJmekatzoe]

Best version of this song!!! Barbra Streisand, will you marry me?

[lilivia1999]

2 people dont know what talent is even when they watch it happen!!!!

[elenie911]

just.holy. perfection

[gerard763]

Her best moment ever on screen!

[catrin500]

im 13 and barbra streisand and celine dion are my idols.. what a life i have!

[witchmusic]

@catrin500 I have never ever met anyone else my age that loves BArbra! DO you have friends that love BArbra??

[catrin500]

@witchmusic ahhhhhh! No, i have no other friends that Like Barbra :'( as you see, my friends have no Idea what they're missing! Love her so much! shes amazing!<3

[annielouism]

wow - we are lucky to have this woman in our lives!

[jamielynnfox]

This is the best song ever sung on film! I cry when I watch this too. Every damn time! She is UNREAL!

[DaeLovely]

just a big bag of talent!

[CCBaby]

Perfection!

[mooksm45]

MY GOD I LOVE THIS WOMAN!!!! This scene is so passionate and well sung! However, is the audio track slow or is her lip synching just horrible? Any way I love it, and she gets even better in "on a clear day you can see forever."

[2JamesGregory]

When Funny Girl was is the theaters, it only cost $1.25 to get in to see it on the big screen and popcorn was .10 in a quart size white paper bag. I took my girlfriend to see it four times. It was worth every penny. Now, if there is something I want to see, I wait for the DVD which is $2.50 to rent for one night and the leading ladies have to kick ass, shot a gun, most likely cuss and get laid and I don't eat popcorn anymore.

[ohioname]

I must say she and Hepburn (Lion in Winter) both deserved their Acting Oscars. Both were phenomenal!

[fobesq]

Without a doubt Hubbell42

[batgirlbabs]

Tear up every time I watch/hear this. So beautiful, poignant, sad.

[Pectoris4]

Wow. She deserved the "Oscar" for this alone!

[deltamusic]

Such a tremendous song. I saw this movie six times when it first came out. I was young, but what an effect it had on me. Guess I was so amazed at the talent Barbra had and the performance she gave. I don't think anyone else has matched this level in a movie to this day. I agree with Hubbell 42's comment.

[cyrustelk]

Paging Sarah Vaughan...

[IloveMerylandMiley]

WONDERFUL !!!

[FakavaKiller]

Such a beautiful song, and it's a great end to the film. Damn. She's totally on her game in this film.

[frogluvr9236]

Amazing movie

[MikeC7432]

I saw Barbra sing this on Broadway in 1965...she was amazing...not a dry eye in the house.

[silenthillmaster755]

@MikeC7432 its not in the show.

[ScarlettRoberts]

Girls when you love some one... dedicated this song!

[JustMeNJ12345]

Barbra rocks this song, but you MUST hear the original Fannie Brice version...SUPERB!

[ryansgirl345]

i don't know why but whenever I see this movie or hear this song I burst into tears. She shows so much emoation. I LOVE THIS SONG!

[silenthillmaster755]

This movie was on tonight, we watched all three hours. it was great!

[eurobaby460]

Who can hold back tears when this is sung?

[Hubbell42]

Probably one of the most exquisite musical performances ever put on film. Absolutely can not be touched by anyone.

[slate2gray]

I love every song in this movie! This is one of my all time favorite movies. I own a copy and have probably watched it over 20 times. This lady has it all.........singer, actress, director etc........

[fara40000]

i fucking sobed durring this part the first time i saw this movie, and i still cry when i see this.

too bad the vid's a bit laggy compared to the audio T.T

[plumbsue]

I did two and I was only 12 years old.

[mousequeen19]

God, I love this song - it made me cry when I watched the movie, especially at 1:06 when she really starts to sing. It gives me chills still. This was a satisfying end to the movie too (I don't like these kind of endings usually, except for Funny Girl and Gone with the Wind) I love the emotions she puts into it, it's really spectacular.

[StrawberryFieldsFrvr]

same with me!!

[MIssCHANEy9]

Beautiful song. Beautiful movie.

*tear*

[eldiran2]

This is stunning...just stunning!

[Jany1954]

You're right, eldiran!  Just stunning , what a movie and what a great voice - she's excellent!!!

[Shubael1809]

Barbra sang this song without prerecording it for Funny Girl. She simply walked onto the sound stage and sang.

What you see in this video is raw talent at its finest. This sort of virtuosity comes about but once in a generation (if we're lucky).

[klsmout]

wow that is interesting trivia...it think this song and this rendition have always been one of my favourites....particularly because of the emotion she puts into this song.

[BrazilNemoFish]

No one has mentioned Linda Eder, she is just as good as Barbra or Whitney, just more unknown

I'm not playing favorites, but just commenting on another great singer

I love Barbra Streisand

[Shubael1809]

Linder Eder has a charming and versatile voice but she doesn't hold a candle to Streisand.

[Styrianstreisandfan]

Wunderbare Barbra! Sie ist die Beste!

[pauljn147]

Whitney has a fabulous voice as did Judy but Babs tops them both for me. She's also the only performance artist in history to win an oscar,emmy,grammy and tony award. A true legend.

[Tigerlily21]

Liza won all 4 too. Judy was always more unstable than Babs but boy when she was on track nothing could top her. Just listen to her performance Old Man River from her tv show.I admire Barbra's talent but connect more to Judy's.

[branchwater7]

patti duke show.

[expatted]

Pretty f---in' wonderful!

[vintagechik86]

I liked the movie for it's music and comedy. the story itself is a little sad but thats what you get with a true story. But I have to say this is my favorite part of the whole thing. She ROCKS this song! I love to hear the passion she puts in it. My favorite part is "what's the difference if I say..."

[collegeri]

greatest singer known to man

[mward1968]

I love Barbra and grew up with a mother who loved her too.....But.....She is not the greatest singer known to man. That would none other than "The Lady Whitney Houston." She has taken some false steps in recent years but there is no one walking this planet who could touch her in her prime. Not Barbra, Not Linda Ronstadt, Not Dusty Springfield, Aretha Franklin, none of them. Whitney is the latest and the so far greatest. Let the record forever reflect. You all know!

[bryanambition]

yeah whitney was terrific when she, in fact, had a voice, but barbra's vocals are nothing short of the finest calibrated musical instrument.

[mward1968]

I guess you are a die-hard fan of Barbra's and I applaud you for that. Stick by the entertainer you love best. Because I definitely stand by "Whitney!"

[Tigerlily21]

everyone has a favorite. My favorite female singer of all time is Judy Garland, and even if Barbra technically has the better vocal range, I still will always prefer Judy because she gets to me on a special level and her singing has so much heart.

[Shubael1809]

Garland and Streisand are both good but comparing them is apples and oranges.. two different phenomena.

[eldiran2]

Absolutely. People may have preferences for one singer over another, but, still, there is an objective understanding of "Best" voice, and it's hard to top Streisand's....

[Central85]

is this the ending, can someone please explain did her man leave her or did he died.

[tungstenclark]

He left her.

[australdrive]

I hate someone told you. The movie is so good I would have encouraged you to check out the video at the library and watch the movie on a computer.

[TrulyScrumptious1]

amazin :)

[thisherecat]

shocking
