can we please stop comparing barbra with chris and lea? the 3 are great every version is good! now let's share our love for barbra's music instead of fighting! :D
screw all u idiots who r talking about chris watever thts the problem with today ppl dont know good music and dont u ever EVER compare some hollywood fake to barbra str
I love Glee, don't get me wrong, and Chris Colfer is without a doubt my favourite actor on the show, but please don't ever tell me that you think Chris is better than Barbra.
@TheBohemianCrystal really u dont no chris freakin colfer. well watch glee or just type in' im the greatest star glee lyrics' and he is better then her
Oh guys, come on. Chris Colfer is not Barbra Streisand, we know, but if the glee's productor wants him to sing barbra, he have to do it. Wasn't so betiful and amazing like Barbra, but I think his job on glee is teach people to be themselfs and follow your dreams, not sing better than the original singer of the music.
"Hello,Gorgeous". Yup,she truly IS the greatest star.How else do you stay at the top of your game over 5 decades without star quality? Celebrity comes and goes in the shift of public tastes but true Stardom endures."Like buttah"
Shut the hell up about this nobody CHRIS. This is Barbra Streisand, people, this role was practically written with Babs in mind. Styne wanted Streisand all along basically while no one else did. Babs first album had come out only in February 63 and they decided that summer on her for the role. She was almost an unknown at that time, having had some small time successes and tv exposure and one small role in a Broadway show, gaining steam. Bravo, Jule Styne, for believing in Barbra like Bryce was!
Chris is far from a nobody. None of us are saying that Barbra isn't absolutely fantastic and that she didn't bring this role to life beautiful, but Chris did an amazing job too. He continually goes onto glee and sings songs traditionally meant for girls and he puts his soul into them without any embarrassment or awkwardness. He is amazing, and I can say with certainty that if Ms Streisand saw how much passion and talent Chris put into his performance, she would be impressed and proud
Singing this for a cabaret- so excited :) As for the whole Barbra vs. Chris situation- both are immensely talented performers: with different interpretations of a fantastic song. Chris brung a fresh face to it, and Barbra made it what it is. Barbra is a belter, Chris is a mixer. Both both actors are extremely talented.
@kenzieebabeyy It is :) The whole "Hey Mr. Keeney here I am!" Here she sings it to the producers, but in Don't Rain on My Parade, she sings it to get her love back "Hey Mr. Arnstein..." :)
If you want to comment about Glee's version, go post on that video and not this one; where people actually appreciate the amazing woman singing it and do not want to hear your opinion of someone else being better. You can like it more, but do not say it's better. You damn immature children.
I adore Glee and Chris Colfer is my favorite actor and singer on the show, but you guys have got to stop doing this. Going on the original and saying that the glee version is better just pisses people off and makes people hate the show and the show's fans. It doesn't matter who you think did a better job, it just kinda makes you look like a dick. Glee is a show of covers which makes people hate it enough already, saying that the cover was better than the original is just digging a deeper hole.
@kaylee674 Except it's not the truth. Barbara sang it first. Barbara sang it best. Chris did an amazing job with it, but it just doesn't compare to the original.
guys calm down... Barbra AND Chris did a wonderful jub i can't pick a faverate... they are bth incredibul performers so stop arguing and enjoy the song and BOTH of their tallent ♡☆☆
I'm sorry. I'm just SORRY. But anyone who thinks that Chris came anywhere near to equaling or surpassing this doesn't understand acting or performing. Chris started out at 11 and stayed there. This song is about slowly, subtly revealing to the audience how talented the performer actually is when all outward appearances are that she's terrible. Barbra slowly, slowly lets us in more and more to Fanny's true abilities and by the end we forget that she was ever rejected. Chris gave us NONE of that.
This is the real deal. This is how young artists start out, they have to fight for their art, and that is how it is, a major struggle. But, she is soooo inspirational for all young artists to fight, struggle, and just do it.
Everyone knows she is a talented actress,comedian and singer. She likes to direct, also. But she is tough as leather to send autographs to fans.Is Ok. I forgive you Barb.
