  • Bad times right now, and this song came to mind. Love the Divine Ms. M.

  • im pretty lonely

  • Her voice is like a warm blanket, i love this song.

  • watch the last episode of Tonight Show wite bette midler and robin williams ITS GREAT

  • I love this video so much, about as much as I love Bette. The song is so hauntingly beautiful. I can close my eyes and picture wartime scenes and the world without sound going on around us, and the words of this song... make out worldy condition even more prevalent. Prayer... we need prayer so much. Human kindness and we must remain servants willing to put others first , helping each other. Heavenly Father... have mercy.

  • THIS IS HOW A SONG SHOULD BE SUNG!!

  • This song defines my childhood .I remember being a kid and hearing it for the first time...it has stuck with me ever since. The movie and the song mean so much to me.

  • this makes me sad. Still depressed. But such a beautiful song.

  • This version was my introduction to Randy Newman.

    Still my favourite interpretation of the extraordianry song.

  • She is and will always be my idol! No one else like her.

  • Makes me cry every time. "Human kindness is overflowing" is meant to be taken ironically I believe, given the rest of the song. The tone is not happy and that line is not uplifting. . .it just shows that their are so many out there who need kindness or are forced by circumstance to rely on the kindness of others making those people feel horrible inside. They cannot help the needy; they are the needy and the Lord helps those who help themselves. Survival then is their only option.

  • Wow.....

  • Thank you for sharing this! Will be back to listen again and again.: ))

  • It´s amazing..

  • I could listen to her all day ..wonderful voice, great entertainer.. just like AnnaKarina2 ...I stopped by once again to watch & listen .

  • I volunteer at a municipal animal shelter. I think of this song when people dump their pets at the shelter.

    ....."that's the way to treat a friend"

  • very pretty song,its taken awhile for me to find this,but im glad i have.always reach out even if you get slapped,cursed,or someone turns their back on you.the one person you touch in your life,kindness o r even a simple word or smile will be the one that defines the rest of your life.it is what makes life worthwhile.

  • God bless johnny carson show an bet midler what a treat what a performance wow

  • Beautiful!!!

  • oh bette....the original diva! <3 u and <3 this song!!

  • Thank you for this video. This song is something you need to hear and B Midler delivers it from the depth of her soul! TY

  • The best movie ever....Beaches! Love it have watched it at least once every year for twenty years:)

  • There are very few people in this talent class. Holiday, Garland, Streisand and of course Bette. They manufacture each song into a 3 act play. All of the emotion and drama are captured by these brilliant women's prose.

  • In my opinion Bette Midler can't be beat in all that she does.

  • the message is in the words. thats it !!!!!!

  • I am in love with this woman. I am.

  • tempo is a little quick, but her voice and her expression produced a terrific rendition here

  • beautiful song.

  • Her voice just makes me want to cry sometimes.

  • what does this song mean?

  • I will die if i dont get to meet Bette before i die!! soo soo bad!

  • Dam, can that woman put over a song! Love you Bette!

  • i believe that too... & this song does a good job of capturing both the hope and sadness associated with trying to help others, because sometimes it just doesn't work out.
