  • the best song ever singgg please barbara never say goodbye never :D

  • I've listened to her since I was 8 years old. Matter of fact - I'm a friedland. (her mother's maiden name.) But you know what? Yes. She's stayed too long at the fair. Watching her in concert was disappointing. Her voice was weak. But the grammys sealed it. Her voice is gone. Now selling newly recorded songs is just stealing.

  • @MarkRTrost ...and, apparently, you missed the bus to the fair!

  • Since the age of 13,(way back in 1973,lol),this woman has been a constant thread.I am not the kind of 'fan' who thinks evey single thing she has done has been pure gold,but she certinly wouldn't have endured 5 decades at the top of her game if she was just a one trick pony! One of her albums is entitled,"Barbra Streisand,and Other Musical Instruments" That kinda sums her up for me. An early Happy 69th Birthday for the 24th/4th,Ms Streisand! No-1 will ever rain on your parade!

  • What's the name of the DVD?

  • Love the voice but the outfit is just too...not right. Why is it that women who have talent still insist on tarting themselves off! I don't get it!

  • Une belle video!!! qui me rappel ce magnifique moment que j'ai passer en assistant a ce concert,merci

  • I think that shes a very cool lady;P

  • I think thats she's so cool. But some of her songs are a little bit weird . As this first song she's singing about some bell xD I don't get the song , but I'm from Sweden . So i dosen't get so much;P

  • she is timeless

  • Barbra was born April 24, 1942, so that hardly makes her in her 70's, does it?

  • A national treasure. Enjoy her while she's here folks.  The woman is incredible --in her 70s and sounds better than ever.

  • @LegrandnjClassicSoul Hey there. Don't rush her. She's not 70 yet...only 67! LOL

  • I don't think that she sounds better than ever now but she sure has still her voice!! I love her!

  • Barbra's album stats are from the American charts from Billboard Magazine. Shirley Bassey's are not.

  • Comment removed

  • Holy shit Barbra can bring out the biggest stars on the planet, being one herself of course. Her success here in 2009 is definintely well deserved.

  • Barbra Streisand is the First Artist With #1 Albums in 5 Consecutive Decades

  • I believe you forgot Dame Shirley Bassey.

  • Barbra, please don't EVER leave the fair. You can stay as long as you like. I LOVE YOU...

  • Ich durfte diese wunderbare Frau live in Wien vor 2 Jahren erleben. Ich bin jetzt 42 Jahre alt. Seit meinem 14. Lebensjahr begleitet mich die Musik von B.S. Als ich vor 1 Monat geheiratet habe - hat "SIE" (leider nur aus dem CD-Player) gesungen. Ich grüße alle Barbra-Fans auf der ganzen Welt.

  • LEGEND !!!

  • Ms. Streisand,

    Allow me to be the ten millionth, 20 millionth, 50 millionth person to say, or at least to think to themselves, that you have most assuredly NOT stayed too long at the fair.

    When you leave, the fair is over. Please don't ever, ever say goodbye.

  • her talent is timeless. nobody's gonna be like her.

  • i hate how they retouch her nose in photos.

  • i was there :)

  • "Look at me world here I am." If Streisand's ego were any bigger she wouldn't fit on stage.Before you throw stones at me.I saw Barbra's 2 TV specials back in the 60's and loved them.Since then my sensibility has changed.She still has a strong healthy voice and we're nearly the same age.

  • the classiest female singer ever..and don't you forget it

  • barbra streisand is always gonna be my fave singer because she is timeless,her songs are gonna mean diffrent things for me as I age,but I will always treasure her songs ♥ yafa ♥

  • Excellent, I have had the privilege of seeing Barbra twice. Once in Las Vegas on New Year's (2000). I will never forget that.

    Her last concert I saw in San Jose. I must admit, the San Jose venue (hockey arena) was not nearly as good. The acoustics weren't there. She may also have had a bit of a cold, at least it sounded as if she did. I'm still glad i went, but I won't go to a hockey arena again to see such a extraordinary performer again.

  • You're absolutely right, and there is no reason to give you a thumb-down!

    It was my dream above all others to just see her once in my live! It was impossible for me to pay for it!

    It is still a shame, Ms Streisand!

  • Don't ya think she's earned the right to charge that much. Listen, if I had had the money, I would have paid 5,000 dollars just to be able to have seen her. I don't really think that you can complain, since Streisand released the concert for all to enjoy including me!!!!!

  • No, honestly I don t think so!! 5.000$ dollars!??? to see her??? what a sense of money/inportant things in life that you have uh! I can complain as I have the right to express my thoughts, simply for that. At the end, that's it: most of her concerts in Europe were cancelled and many had few attendees. It is not only me as you can see. Ciao

  • Well Kerrfal,

    I certainly can agree with you that the prices would be considered high for a pedestrian singer, but we're talking about Streisand(the greatest singer of our century!!!) Please understand that I do understand what you're saying...but a once in a lifetime event is just that. I was lucky enough to have seen Ella, Sarah, and Frank just before they stopped concertizing!

  • you're great.

  • I've watched the concert around 50 times and never ever tire of it. I love it that Barbra includes the verse to People. Her rendition of "Funny Girl" is amazing, and she is so aware of the meaning inherent in the song which Jule Styne so creatively concocted from "People" by using the first two notes of the song "People" he then goes on to create a truly marvelous song!! Love the Q& A session with Barbra drinking Starbucks at her own personal coffee outlet lol!!! LOVE her tongue placement!

  • barbra you are the greatest star

    i've been a fan of yours since i was 5 years old

    i am almost 20 now and am still a big fan

    you have the most gorgeous voice i've ever heard

    you are the greatest

    with love

  • CONGRATULATIONS to the official Barbrastreisand youtube channel for your first 10,000 views. Welcome to cyberspace Barbra!

  • wow - i just happened onto this video and i'm so glad i did! i hadn't considered myself a proper "fan" of her's before, but i did choke up a little at her rendition of "too long at the fair" after the interview context infused the lyrics texture and meaning and a little sadness. and she is still so totally sexy too. an american icon!

  • Check out my video hommage of this wonderful DVD. Search for BARBRA FOREVER. Enjoy!

  • she looks beautiful here.

  • Just got my DVDs. The quality of this concert is phenomenal. I bought another for my mom for Mothers'Day. She also loves Il Divo and there's 2 more bonus songs with Il Divo.

  • Barbra: I still have my tickets and memorabilia from Auburn Hills; sorry I missed your last concert....I was thrilled to see and hear "The Music That Makes Me Dance"..I melt everytime I hear it ...have a fabulous day!

  • i love barbara's voice , and her persona .. she comes across as a very warm person with a beautiful voice and a beautiful heart. thankyou to laurie for sharing this with me ...

  • Dear Barbara,

    How I enjoyed your TV concert. It was phenomenal! I loved your son's song too, and was touched by your honoring him and his talent, with your singing and public acknowledgement of him. Please don't ever retire. Your voice's power and beauty is as amazing as ever. I'm 56 and have been enthralled with your amazing talent; singer, actress, director, producer. . .

    Truly,

    Laurie

  • I have seen that performance, Barbara, and might I add, it's like...YOU NEVER LEFT! Bravo! I grew up with your music, movies and memories and I have to say...I enjoyed them more and more because it is a rarity to find you singing live and in person anymore. I am glad you decided to keep performing for us! Your voice still carries a beautiful note.

    Your adoring fan, as always,

    Shane Gordon

  • Thank you for posting this Barbra, really enjoyed the footage. Wish I could have gone. I'm definitely going to order the DVD and drive everyone nuts in the house here, playing it over, and over, and over again.

    Love you so much!

  • Dear Barbra:

    I thought that after so many years, no one could sing as well as they once did, but after having heard your opening number to the new concert (Starting Here, Starting Now), I was astounded to learn that you're singing even better than ever. I'd like to see you create a great role on the screen, once more. I'm back in your temple, scrubbing floors. Call it, "The Watermark," if you will. Tar Pits are for sinking.

  • GREAT

  • Where can I see this on utube

  • The concert won't be on YouTube -- but the full length DVD set is available in stores now.

  • Barbra:

    I've been fortunate enough to have seen you perform live many times, beginning with your appearance at the International hotel in 1969. Have you ever sung "I've Been Here" in any of your concerts or live appearances? Would you consider it? And btw, thanks for making me happy so often, for over 50 years...what a wonderful gift to be able to share with people. Patrick

  • Incredible !!! on Tuesday after work went to Best Buy in Hialeah Miami.

    To pickup four copys of the Streisand Concert DVD. and was sold out.

    and in backorder till Thurdays. had to drive eight miles to another

  • Tomorrow's the big day in the USA!!

  • Can't wait for the album I'm so glad your doing all this. Don't hesitate to do a few interviews!!

  • thanks for the good memories of that year for me ....i was crying when it was over on sat night ,,,,,saw u in St Paul...I knew u could sing and so did my nephew ..is 5 ...thanks for the concert and not faking it

  • Hello Gorgeous! Thank you, thank you so much for posting this video. I was there that day, and I think noone has your class and elegance. I will be getting this set on Tuesday and I will treasure it. Thank you for your magnificent and always welcomed work. But always remember we want more. From Miami, Ana.

  • Overall this was a marketing masterpiece for those who saw it. Concert/infomercial with its different sponsors announcing their exclusives products in between. I'd be curious to see if fans line-up to buy on Tuesday. I hope CBS reruns it just before Mother's Day.

  • I thought the special was amazing. Up till now, I'd seen only the youtubes several times but this on my 27" TV (unfortunately not HD) was breath taking. The super close-ups were so real you could see every single different emotions she was exuding. Barbra is truly a real life angel coming to this earth to bless us with love.

    The editing was superb. The choice of songs was, well huh? Not my favorites but I completely understand Barbra wanting to deliver HER message to the masses.

  • Happy Birthday Barbra, I felt like I was a kid again; saw you in Auburn Hills, one of my favorite memories...kiss, kiss..xx

  • please please please please someone record it and put it on here for the people who dont get CBS!!!!! PLEASE :)

  • The DVD will be available for sale from Tuesday -- and will include the FULL set of songs, plus bonus features.

  • Dear Barbra.

    I can't wait till tuesday to get the DVD. in fact i'am getting four of them for my friends.

    I was at the concert both days in Fort Lauderdale.

    Thank you for your talent and time to make your new work possible.

    My best regards from Miami Florida.

    Juan Carlos

  • WOW!!! Almost like being there again in Atlanta on 11/2/2006. What night, one of the greatest "moments of my life." Thank you for being. I am sitting here in front of the TV ready to record, just like I was when I was 13.........31 years...... Thank you for bringing such joy and meaning to a less that great life. You are pure Joy......

  • My dear Bab:

    Happy birthday!

    Thanks for delivering the world a voice, a dedication for your work, a great fighter for his ideals ... A GREAT WOMAN!!

    Congratulations!!!

  • Happy Birthday, Barbra. You've been in my life since I was 11 years old and could not understand English. I am now 57 (on April 29). I saw you first in 2000 and then in 2006. They were the most magical nights of my life.

    Barbra, it is time for you to do an album in Spanish. We have beautiful old songs that I would love to hear you sing.

  • You do know that Brabra recorded and released (in Spain, I think) Evergreen in Spanish, don't you?

  • Yes I have that recording. Thanks

  • Happy Birthday, Barbra! :)

    One of the greatest thrills of my life thus far was finally being able to go to her concert in 2006. I saw her LIVE in Boston on October 22/06... the memory still plays on in my mind and I keep realizing what a pleasure and honor it was to actually have been able to see her live, in person! Thank you, Barbra, for your gifts of singing, acting, directing and producing that you have given us through the years. You have impeccable talent. You touch my life always.

  • Happy birthday, my queen!!

    I just bought it this week and it's simply amazing!

    Two thumbs up, no doubt!!

  • Happy birthday - Barbra!

    That concert is incredible !!!!

    Werner

  • Wow she looks great doing her commentaries. She's lost weight after the Tour. She's wearing her outfit from KCH luncheon so this must be fairly recent. Happy Birthday Barbra!

    Can't wait to get my DVD boxset soooon.

  • BARBRA STREISAND is still the NUMBER ONE singer in the whole world. She does stand the test of time together with her high-quality repertoire. BOTH THUMBS UP Babs!!! João Carlos, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

  • Just wonderful!!!  - as is the DVD.
