I was 'introduced' to Streisand at age 13,back in 1973,when my mother gave me a cassette tape,a compliation of female artistes,& Streisand was singing "The Way We Were",at least I think it was that track.Anywho,I was mesmerised by this amazing voice.As a 13 year old,what would I know from 'good music',lol! But I just knew I'd be following this magnificent woman's voice for many,many years to come.And guess what,I'm still here,lol.Just like La Streisand!
there really IS a lesson in there for other singers.
..and therein lies her place in musical history. Some have great instruments. Others are great interpreters, stylists, know how to sing a song to convey its story.
I've been a fan of Barbra's since the late 60's and I think there will never be another such talent. She's a gem as others in here have said. I got to see her in Vegas a couple of years ago and was thrilled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So beautiful....many times Barbra has said that as a teenager, Johnny Mathis was her favorite....you can hear the influence in her light, fluttery-fast vibrato and pure head tones....gorgeous....Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely. Mariah Carey--who has a great instrument--wails and squeals all over the place, to her great disadvantage. Whitney was pretty good for awhile, but nobody comes close to Streisand's talents.....

Streisand, like few others, is an artist at both.

Love Barbra and Johnny Mathis. They get the simple and the strong way to preform a song. Thanks for sharing this lovely gem.

The female singers of today need to listen to Barbra. You can have a great dramatic effect without all the vocal acrobatics. She is really amazing.
