  • wow

    

  • No existe ni una mujer cantante balada y que aparte de cantar bonito se le entienda el ingles como a Barbra Straisand, por eso para mi es la numero uno. Te amo Barbra S.

  • A voz do século XX, XXI e por toda a eternidade. Grande Barbra Streisand!

    Única, especial, tudo de bom! Obrigada.

  • Great and unique Barbra, an extraordinary voice!!!

    Grande e unica Barbra, una voce straordinaria!!!

  • @55npm

    Claro es unica, y yo a mis 30 años aunque no es de mi tiempo, la amo.

  • Barbara, you have been my consistant companion every day of my life for 20 years. Please, be a part of my life on my Youtube Channel. I know you never knew it, but your music has been like a best friend to me. I am inviting you. You are always welcome on my Youtube Channel. Thank you for the time you have spent with me, that you never knew about. :)

  • From Time Warner Presents the Earth Day Special, Barbra Streisand delivers a spectacular intro, written by Dr. Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan --- then returns with "One Day," written just for this show by Streisand's longtime musical partners, Michel Legrand and Alan and Marilyn Bergman. Cool!

  • ghettoblaster2 this tune 4 reel...

  • Magnificent,as everything from Barbra !!!

  • I remember this 1990 "Earth Day" television special: a star-studded event with multiple vignettes about the preservation of our planet. Ms. Streisand closed the show with this wonderful number, a spectacular return to her television roots. The direction is breathtaking, with the spectrum of the earth's flora and fauna on film, but Streisand herself on what looks like monochrome videotape. When she finishes the last line "that will be the day," I always tear up. A truly lovely sequence.

  • loved with passion her closing of that unforgettable Earthday special!

    truely impressive!

  • one of the most beautiful songs and vocals I've ever heard  Thank you.

  • I could watch, hear anything she does, anything

  • Barbra's phrasing and tone was never as better than in this song AWESOME!

  • The voice of the 20th century.

  • @academysounds And the voice of the 21 century too!

  • @academysounds and 21st. 

  • wonderful ..............................­...

  • SUBLIME!!

  • Her first album, The Barbra Streisand Album, won two Grammy Awards in 1963.

  • "One Day" Is one of the most haunting of Michel LeGrand, Allan and Marilyn Bergman's compositions! This piece is one of the great musical works of this idiom.. and it is very difficult to obtain the music. Barbra's interpretation is THE definitive one. The voice --and soul-- of Barbra is a national treasure.

  • Hey Streisand fans, Can you help me with the title of one of her songs?

    Some of the lyrics....."a room is still a room, even when it's filled with only gloom."

    Thanks.

  • @JD03ish It's from Burt Bacharach song *A house is not a home*. It's medley with with 'One less bell to answer' on 'Barbra Joan Streisand' cd.' Also on Youtube as live version from a TV special.

  • @JD03ish Hello. The song you wanted is "One Less Bell",

    which is on this page

    Enjoy!! Whitola

  • Amazing artist...just amazing.....

  • izvanredna žena, odlična glumica, fenomenalan glas...., nešto posebno toplo, nježno izvire iz njenih očiju....., obožavam je!!!!

  • luv her!!!!!!!!

  • thank you barb!

  • Is there really a reason for people to leave unkind comments? If you don't like Babs...why listen? I love listening to her...if I didn't I wouldn't listen.

  • wow !! such talent i love barbra streisand so much thanks

  • Over thirty years ago Ms Streisand entered a shop own by a friend of mine, She was not happy with his detachment, she said to him "Do you know who I am"? Barbra, the World knows who you are! Thank you for the many pleasures.

  • @TheFrenchrussian wow, today it would've been all over youtube. Great story.

  • i swear she pays people to leave good comments and people to boost them....

  • todas las canciones me parecen maravillosas, menudo torrente de voz, es espectacular y unica , me encanta

  • beautiful video

  • Hey,themirrorhastwofa

    ces,

    You have a verry nice Channel !!!!

    Cherizar1 :))

  • "One Day" is a fantastic song written by Michel Legrand, unfortunately Barbra didn´t give this song a place on an album...by the way, I love it if Barbra sings songs by Michel Legrand! For me, the Bergmans, Legrand and Streisand are soulmates...

  • Absolutely beautiful. The first time ever hearing this...raised my spirit and hope!

  • She's the best! Love her voice, not her politics.

  • She's the best! Love her voice. Love her politics!

  • @billyboylb safeguard and love our planet ,our nature ,call it lord's creation has nothing to do with politics ,more with ethics and real morals,true peace!

  • @DANIELDMARTINRIOS But I DO like her politics. She very supportive of equal rights of the gay community, she's against the war in Iraq, etc. But I love her voice too....

  • Absolutamente increible! Es ELLA, es Barbra...

    .....de pues de oirte puedo morir tranquilo!!

  • why do people go on to a beautiful site like this and argue? How small minded do you have to be to find that worthwhile? Just listen and appreciate.

  • @FunNotNuts  AMEN!

  • Wooow, I didn´t know this little masterwork!

    I agree, Streisand at her best, absolutely ...

  • Exquisita,fabulosa,enoorme,arm­oniosa,magnifica.Todos los calificativos positivos son válidos para esta cantante.

  • Y llegò para quedarse, a mi Gran amor Dios , mis hijo`, familia e` Hicham... Thanks for love

  • amazing how little one's world is to spend your time insulting a woman's nose...would someone get a grip on reality and grow the hell up!

  • Exquisite...never have I heard this before. Loved it.

  • maravillos!maestra tu vot tu espiritu t tu belleza gracias....barbara steissand......elisasegal bendiciones de luz argentina e rios parana

  • OH LALA VERY NICE

  • C'est une belle chanson, émerveillée par la très belle voix de Barbra Streisand. C'est un régal bravo Barbra.

  • @streisandsucks

    hahahhahahahhaha ou my goodness.. hahahhaa i must confess she is really really great artist..and i love her music but you are really great comic ahaha

  • @streisandsucks

    Do you think it is funny?

  • Yes I do.

  • perfect.

  • Bless your heart . . . such a shame to be so provincial.

  • Oh, damn. I can still remeber your comments to her videos on youtube which 2 years ago. And what can we see now? After 2 years you STILL need to write every day comments about her nose. You are really obsessed with her!

  • Well, her nose is definitely bigger than your brain...

  • Hehe, good one .

  • @NoMind87 Well...yo opino lo mismo.Es una de las pocas mujeres a lo largo de la historia de la música y del arte en general que ha impuesto su propia identidad por encima de toda mentalidad masculina.Ha convertido su nariz en su máximo exponente...Brava!

  • I wish they could just pare this down to just her voice.....I love it lush, but sometimes, just her voice, without all the mechanical manipulations and added background....would be nice to hear.

  • With love for each one of those, who found such a place on YT...

  • Barbra Streisand is my nr 1 ! The best female singer-actress ever in my opinion ./ and this video is so great and reminds me allways to our briljant lady when i hear her speak in the beginning with such intelligence and her soft ,warm voice is a Gods blessing to hear. NR 1

  • what a beautiful video!!!!! thank you for posting this. it's amazing. i am filled with joy. joanna1943

  • First part of the song are lyrics from

    SOMEWHERE ( West Side Story) music

    by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen

    Sondheim.

    Song ONE DAY, music by MICHEL LEGRAND, and lyrics by ALAN and

    MARILYN BERGMAN.

    a great combination.

  • I just found out that this ONE DAY was recorded earlier for her What About Today Album and slipped in here with the reference to Somewhere for use in the special. I sure wish it had been released as a cut on CD or single. Can't find it any where.

  • Comment removed

  • Sorry, couldn't resist. What being nasty, infering you the real Streisand fan knowing every nuance, each breath, blah blah blah, you're exactly the fan she stears clear of. You should have resisted, honest! Nasty catty little Im better than you comments are never taken well. Please check yourself. Information would have been nice with out the I know more Im better than you inuendo.

  • Comment removed

  • @mikesterSTLMO you see to do quite well at being a beotch. and yes you were being nasty as eveidenced in your closing comment Sorry, couldn't resist.

  • still being a child and calling names I see, I called you nothing I referred to the your comments as nasty. Now please just go away and take your nasty little names with you

  • @alaric59 what crap

  • GTH

  • briljant Barbra , 'the best ever' : Wauww...

  • my grandpa loves barbra and now im likein her but i still love Celine

  • she looks lie tzipi livni....

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome talent. Thanks, also, Barbra for supporting the rights of ALL people!

  • everytime i get turkeyskin, when i hear her singing. she is absolutly magic and by the way an excellent actress. she's never boring...never and that makes her really unique!

  • one of my most favorite streisand songs. hope it gets released on a cd ONE DAY

  • nobody better Barbra

  • About life being so precious that we must defend it.  About exploring the universe and thus far the only life we know of exists here, only on earth is a profound narrative. Thank you Barbra. Choose Life.

  • Thank you for sharing (tmhtf). I have been a Streisand fan for over 35yrs (I'm 42) and I have never seen this before. How did I miss that? lol.

  • I like this song- have never heard it before. Has Barbra sung this song in any of her concerts before? Love Barbra- she's a true diva!

  • the beginning is "somewhere" from the musical West Side Story, but I guess the song it flows into must be called "One Day". Never heard this one before.

  • Wow! Some weird comments so far. Anyway,I find it interesting how Barbra utilizes an image or theme that has recurred in several of her performance pieces---- that of a single prson of normal stature casting a giant shadow. Great metphor for how the enormous talent of this single person and her good works (both artistic and charitable) have affected so many. What a blessing to be alive to witness, first hand,her amazing contributions.

  • This clip was shown in the early 90s as a TV special...whether she recorded it then or not doesnt matter...its HER voice, so she deserves the incredible credit due to her AMAZING interpretation and phrasing...the SOMEWHERE clip sounds as if she rerecorded that part for this...as the original Somewhere was recorded in 1984/1985...so who knows...except how WONDERFUL La streisand is and always was to us...

  • This voice is the voice "of the century." I can't stop thinking about how she stated that she doesn't even "like" to sing. I understand her when she says she's an actress who sings. So, we all benefit from her love of acting. Madam, your time has come..indeed.

  • for me Barbra still is today the finest non-operatic singer around :) She still is Magic whatever she sings

  • And yours is perfect?

  • I listened to these words tonite, and I wish

    Barb would bring this out as a single. The

    words seem so right after Barack's win a few

    days ago. She sang words that were so hopeful,

    and that's how the United States feels, now...

    HOPEFUL. Barb make a single of this with ONE

    GOD on the other side!! PLEASE!!!

  • Actually that was Cher and you are a typical lying Republican idiot!

  • Magica e coinvolgente come sempre, brava Barbra!

  • Comment removed

  • I have to agree with hurleywilliam, the tone of her voice sounds like young barbra; it still has that funny girl sound.

  • i agree. as a barbra fan(atic) for 20 years, her voice has different techniques and tonal qualities from 60's until today (for me her voice was in full bloom from 1983-1985 where her sound reached the pinnacle of beauty unparalled in the history of music). going back, her "someday,somehere intro was clearly 90's, quivery, nervous and tremulous..but her "one day, the stars.."is very early 70's sound! regardless, barbra is THE best singer, unmatched, unparalled...

  • I LOVE STREISAND!!!

    this was filmed in 1990, but the audio of the song "one day" was recorded around 1972, she's lip-syncing a song that had recorded 18 years prior. if you're a barbra fanatic, close your eyes and listen to her voice, you'll be able to tell that this is not a 50 year old barbra singing.

    it's especially noticeable at 2:30

  • Lip-syncing yes, but to a song recorded 18 yrs. prior? I'm skeptical; from which albums' recording sessions are you speaking that Barbra recorded this song?

  • I think you may be right. I have all her CDs and it is possible to pinpoint time due to how her voice has 'altered' over the years...but, because she didn't sing 'Somewhere' until the 1980s I think the intro may be a later recording...this clip is from an American TV special about how we are wrecking our only home (I think Bette Midler, who has done sterling work leading a clean-up campaign in New York's Central Park, played the 'doomed Earth'). And let's face facts, we are wrecking it...

  • that song is so great and powerfull...Other beautiful Streisand's song..Thanks for share!!!

  • She also has beautiful hands - a true artist.

  • like this song a lot and what she's doing with her mouth is fascinating!

  • Barbra is our queen! God bless Streisand!!

  • Never heard this song beofre I love it.. and it shows something different in Barbra. One thinks of all the movies she might have made over the years instead of the very few.. especially musicals... its a shame really.

    Anyone know who write this song... is it a Michel Legrand /Bergman number?

  • what a wonderful surprise to hear Barbra sing a song that is new to me and that I never knew existed. She is a true miracle and our lives have been enriched by her presence.

  • One Day is a great song! Sony/Columbia please release all of Streisand's music videos on DVD. Where is Yentl and Live in concert 2006 at?? Why does it take so long for Streisand fans to ge their material released!!

  • The first song is "Somewhere" from Leonard Bernstein/Stephen Sondheim's Broadway musical/film "West Side Story"

  • I have never heard this song before. Is it from a Broadway show? Just exquisite.

  • The first song is from Leonard Bernstein's broadway musical/film "West Side Story"

  • This is soo beautiful.....

  • I think Barbara's voice should be the chosen one for representing Earth.....

  • whoa ive never seen or heard this before and i thought i'd seen everything!! lol thanks!!!

  • I remember this from 1990. The special was so stupid. This really was the only good part. Good thing they had this to close that 2 hour special.

  • Barbra is just the best ! and if you ever will have the chance to see her live then i say : you must !!! She is extraordanary and in my eyes she was and is still a funny girl with a huge gift . love Babs, hehe.....

  • Yeah, Absolutely Flawless! Gods Gift To Song...

  • Their is no one who can compare! Excellent.

  • Oh she gives a taste of the Barbra flair here, wonderful song.

  • Oh she gives a taste of the Barbra flair here, wonderful song.

  • Inner space...The final frontier.

  • I remember recording this as a kid and always watching babs sing this song. Oh, the way I was...

  • I remember watching this as a kid. I'm so glad to be able to revisit it once again, it's still as fresh and exciting as ever.

  • That BY FAR is one of the best SONGS she had ever recorded.

  • such common sense and wisdom...why oh why oh why are billions spent on space programmes when people on THIS planet are starving and need help in learning to love?!!!

  • Do I need to answer this? Some people want to starve and don't care about what happens to them. They'd rather not work. They'd rather do drugs and be dependent on welfare programs. The others who are sick and dying --we can help and the government is not deaf to their plight. Millions of people die everyday of other causes besides starvation. We can't control what happens to all of them. No matter how much we care. All we can do is pray for them.

  • Pray for them? After trashing them?

  • All of us on this earth have choices to make. I do not condone the ones who are mentally or terribly sick. But we are human beings. I've seen/met people who'd rather beg everyday rather than work.

  • Phenomenal! - Penny

  • thank you so for this!

  • That is so beautiful! I never saw this. Thanks!

  • We have searched the sky for signals...but, as far as we looked, there is only one place in the entire universe, where the miracle of life exist - Our own planet Earth! WOW! Every time I watch this video opening with Barbra saying those words I got goose-bumps all over! What a voice, even speaking Barbra gets us thrilled! LOVE YOU BARBRA!

  • Superb! She just gets it soooo right!

  • this is the most awesome song and video, why was it never released. she is flawless and always will be!!!!!!!!!

  • the first earth day must've been 20 years ago... when i saw barbra sing this song -- i wished that one day i would watch this over and over, and buy the record.... thank you for showing this, i've been waiting years... but why wasn't this song released? one of the most beautiful songs barbra has ever sung... should've been the theme to a movie.. and won an oscar.

  • Nobody like Barbra! Perfect.

  • Thank you so much for uploading this.

    I love the song and the video .............just Barbra.

    I need nothing else.

    Mark x

  • She's magnificent!!! No more comments!!!

  • At her BEST! Simply Streisand!!!

  • Barbra, your fantastic. To me your voice will always be identified as one of the greatest in the world! It doesn't matter when it was recorded but it sounds like this was recorded around the time of NUTS. Excellent!

  • Fantastic!!!

  • When I first saw this when it aired, I immediately felt that the age of the voice in the recording didn't match Barbra's sound in the present. When she says "you'll see", it is just a sound that her voice had from 1969-1975.  I can't remember who the producer or arranger was, Marty Paich I think. I think she recorded it at the same time she recorded What are you doing...

    Chime in, what do other people think or know about the actual date of the audio recording?

  • If I also remember correctly, John Arrias is credited as re-mixing the song in the credits. At the time of the broadcast he had just finished working on all the re-mixes of Barbra's unreleased material for JFTR.

  • Just watching this now, I thought the same thing. I actually thought her voice sounded much like it did a little earlier around 1965 or 67.

  • PERFECTION as always!!!!!
