Absolutely marvellous and the words so true!!

[xebatansis]

1:42 why does the video stop there?

[marcosvalenca]

@xebatansis Just click on the downloading bar a little ahead, it will continue. At least it did with me.

[disturbedprincess666]

she's awesome in Hocus Pocus!!

[askiwinona]

the ol' gals still got it!!! love her!

[bourgkul]

Otto Von Titsling!

[YambidiBlamBlam]

And the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live.

That one line has more absolute truism in it than ALL Britney Spears, Christina Aguillera, J Lo, and Beyonce songs put together, not to mention a REAL woman singing and not some pop bubble gum McBimbo.

[nochmalich1]

she is soooo ;--,she is super:-)

[MrLoneCrow]

This woman SHOUTS that love is good, Like no other person.

[laarbe]

The Divine Ms. M. Bette Midler is so fantastic. She knows the crowd is going to sing this song so she just let's them have thier way. She is a Living Legend. She is a Rose.

[martiwahlberg]

This song is for you mama. It was your favorite song. I miss you. 12-7-44 to 1-28-09

[RedRenamon]

I love this song because my bf comes in my mind if i hear this

Robert Jumper i Love you so much.

[martin2455]

@RedRenamon I think everyone who has someone that they love ... just loves this song

[sdrapaka]

She looks like the one chick on " The View"

[Super1652]

Super!!!

[Super1652]

Super

[nochmalich1]

@Super1652 Suuuuper. Wow 

[OneEyedJack1970]

I've always been attracted to Bette Midler. I don't know why, but I can't deny it.

[giannial1985]

Did you know that Better had surgery on her chords around 2007? Her voice has changed a little sense. This is 2004, so it's strong :)

[saveamazon]

@giannial1985 wow...I never heard about that? where did you hear about it?

[giannial1985]

@saveamazon I found out from research

[Airickk2021]

was she wasted...?

[venezzia555]

Oh, she is great! There's just one and only Bette. ;) Love her.

[xavenzo69]

Bonjour, comment ne pas aimer Bette ... merveilleuse, extraordinaire ... que dire d'autre ? Merci pour cette video ... bises ..

[xXBetteMidler4evaXx]

Nothing will ever beat hearing Bette sing this live. There wasn't a dry eye in the house <3

[MTCatman]

Love Bette and The Rose! Thanks!

[74XLR]

When this song is mentioned everyone thinks of Bette Midler.

The song was written by Amanda McBroom.  she sings it very well also.

[TR5T]

I find there is a phenomina that sometimes a very ugly or not so pretty woman can be so very sexy. Bette is no looker but she is sooooo sexy and talented. The Rose is one of my fave. movies.

[solomusic29]

wow she is the best you can't compare her to any one. but check out "12 year old amazes crowd " he really made me feel this song can't believe he is only 12.

[solomusic29]

wow she is the best you can't compare her to any one. but check out "12 year old amazes crowd " he really made me feel this song can't believe he is only 12

[Miobby097]

The only thing I hate about this song is when it gets to 3:37.

[kimlovesfun]

what a fun and talented lady :)

[drdesigndiva]

the original and best who inspired the likes of Madonna ... lol 'kiss my brass' - yep they all can ... luv ya Bette

[TheFinalTestament]

-- "I guess those tickets really did cost too much... won't even give a Diva a break."

So here i am, moved by the song and then quietly I LOL... rare when that happens. :)

[Meedascha]

I always have to cry when i hear it, even in german.

Very very beautiful voice

[hotqueekboi]

She's 59 here!!!

I'd like to see any of the new popstars of nowadays to be able to sing like this when they reach this age...... if they even still have a career at ALL when they are this age!

[michellesvideosuk]

OMG, she is singing in so perfect, og this is my favourite lady ever!

This was my wedding song in 1996, my husband is dead now so this song will always be ours. xxx

[dhelle18]

Love her!

[TeamRuthLorenzo]

mega talent, she's hillarious-one of the funniest people ever! and she can act brilliantly and she can sing, when she sings i get goose bumps. Beaches is my favourite film! xx

[Justcallmemommy]

@TeamRuthLorenzo Have you seen her remake of Gypsy? Oh that is one of my favs with her in it!

[TeamRuthLorenzo]

@Justcallmemommy no i haven't, whats it about? x

[sharondoyle37]

I love Bette since I was 7 years old after seeing Beaches on tv in '97 and Celine Dion since I was 5 years old. They used to tell people that I had the musical interests of a gay 20 year old man.

[cawber]

I swear to god she give me the chills...wow...go girl go

[Murphysluk]

Whenever The Divine Miss M sings a song,  she makes it her own

[bels10]

No one can sing this song like her!

[sabhti]

Bette Midler me encanta como interpreta,es una autentica DIVA.

5*

[grapeboy83]

I'm not much for the audience singing along, kinda breaks the fourth wall.

Nothing worse than when you sit next to someone that's singing along with

performer, OUT OF KEY. Not what I paid for. Bette an awesome performer,

she doesn't need any help.

[TheMysuri]

wooow!!!! i love this song. its very cool and i ♥ it.!

[Pussycatfeathers]

oh i love her so much, shes funny , extremely talented as an actress and what a voice.......you go bette, if you havent seen the film "the rose" watch it, shes amazing in it :-)

[hideninm00nlight]

og god this song makes me cry, thank god my class is singing it

[Kellermanakis]

...ist Gott wirklich ein Mann ???

[bonniethebestyeah]

bette is so funny and a amazing fantastic woman,i love her show,She's hilarious

[jesusoneway1225]

your awesome voice touches my heart!!

[nfd24norf]

a timeless beautiful song

[Mondscheinserenade]

Super Frau...Klasse

[rolf1008]

Why do other artists bother singing this song. There is no one better then Bette!!!!!!!! She really knows how to sing it!!! Go one Devine Miss M.!!!

[xXBetteMidler4evaXx]

I agree 100%

[odysseetheater]

@rolf1008 i am with you ... but pls consider that music is for all on the planet and should be sung from all on he planet ...

[proud2bpink]

@rolf1008 I was foaming at the mouth when Westlife covered it. lol. They'd already ruined Diana Ross's 'When You Tell Me That You Love Me', whic was always my fave song ever. When they also covered Bette, they crossed a line. lol

[BJZnRPZ]

@rolf1008 because she chats through half the performance while you nash your teeth and call ticket sales for a refund.

[Jimmy1tooth]

@rolf1008 imitation is the best form of flattery,thats why they bother..no other reason

[OTOJA55]

This Woomen ist supeer

[CHERADICTO]

D I V A

[LuneKeltkar]

mlgouge,

So far beneath the bitter snow. Even when she makes fun of herself the beauty sings still. I think that you have heard that. Lift every voice and sing. What finer rule was ever laid down.

Lune

[mlgouge]

... after 1000s of times singing this song ... after the ribbing ... she comes back to the song that brought so much emotion ... and gave it justice. If you over 40 you'll know what I mean ... she made me smile ... and remember ... thank you so much Bette!

[knowledgeip]

She's hilarious! Great vocal... And comic relief for a sad song...

[Sevysssoul]

She is SOOOOO amazing!!! What else can I say??

[SpeakTruer]

Such the total package. I wish I could see her do the tunes of 'the rose' live!

That's my all time most seen, favorite movie.

Thanks to Divine M,

SpeakTruer

[Ecaid]

This song really does sum up life and how we should live in the lgiht of the love we are given and the love that give. This song will be played by my son at my funeral.

[1972Shell]

this song is dedicated to my dearest,best friend who died over thirteen years ago.How I miss her,she was the best and always will be. love you Pam Stallings from North carolina. rest in peace my friend!!!! love Shelley

[laggie24]

Bette is Superb!! Never leaves out the door a goodie remark. :)

[littletinkx]

this song makes me cry evry time i hear it xxxx

[Texaschichere]

Me too. Reminds me of my mom.

[Finallybenunderstood]

it all boils down to the growing pains, I suppose...even Peter Pan had to learn to fly... most intense song, beautiful~

[Finallybenunderstood]

...but I've been taken over and over again, and still I give to death... Just call me thorny rosebush, I suppose... ah, spring again, the pain of the first blossom, ouch!

[Finallybenunderstood]

It's the one who won't be taken... ahh, yes x(:Dc, that's a tough one~

[Finallybenunderstood]

You gotta love Bette. How can you not?

[ccthebrat]

I love it when she interacts with the audience. Especially watching her face while the crowd sings. To be there it's so electrifying.. gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. Everyone singing along...

[mkonofre]

Omg, I LOVE HER***** Thank u for introducing me to her, Alaa! :)

[Oline111]

Bette means "small" in an danish dialeckt, but Bette is "great" - just "great" - that is all....
