BEYONCE The Way We Were (Live from Kennedy Center Honors)-2009 Live Performance

[thelouiseyoutub]

God ! God ! Thank for Beyonce , Dieu create a beautiful creatur ! Her voice ! My gosh , I love beyonce you too you love B ?

[2tim149]

Nope. Not from the first note. For all Barbara is, you must admit, she can blow. She's one of those singers, you can just listen to her hum with no lyrics for three or four minutes. Not many of them around. No contest.

[missjessica221]

Words can't describe that beauty

[YngMan25]

Beautiful!! I remember this, she was the best that night!!

[robopad]

Barbara looks like she smelling shit, It's probably her liberal husband.

[10547177]

Beautiful !!!!!!!!!

[robopad]

@10547177 Yes Qaddafi really enjoyed this song when she gave him a personal concert. Barbara was really proud of her too.

[BBBYpsi]

To me it was just alright. The one thing people do not realize about babs is she really loves alot of different type of singers. She even really likes eminen. She was even pulling for him to win some awards. Now compare babs in 1975 to this version no comparison. Babs wins in a landslide.

[TheBelleJess]

@BBBYpsi i like this one way better :)

[daamqc]

Uh...Beyonce just earned her a handful of brownie points in my book after that performance. Really classy.

[BlueDuchesse9]

Barbs was definitely the best, then there is Celine who is like a tie, then Beyonce who definitely has the best voice of today

[billygoyboyII]

I think Beyonce did a fine job with this beautiful song. and it seems clear that Barbra enjoyed it. I get kinda chocked up when Beyonce says: "It's an honor to sing for you Ms. Streisand." I can't imagine just how intimidating it must have been to sing for Barbra Streisand, arguebly the greatest singer on the planet.

[holamypeeps]

SHE DID AMAZING!! STOP HATING!! EVEN BARBARA KNOWS AMAZING SHE IS!

[tomharrison714]

Anybody notice the video was out of sync besides me?

[LohengrinT]

Barbra's vomiting expression at the end of this exhibition of bad intonation by Beyonde is worth 1000 dollars :))

[greattimed]

@LohengrinT where? at 2:04 she was clearly nodding and then at 3:11 she was clapping. Absolutely wishful thinking on your part. Poor you, can't admit when someone else does a good job of covering a song and its originator applauds them. Whatever.

[virgo8308321]

@LohengrinT ...REALLY?!?!...WHERE?!?!...sh­e seems quite pleased to me ESPECIALLY at the end...i dont know what your seeing....i sense a troll lol

[LohengrinT]

@virgo8308321

I know Barbra for 25 years since I was 12! Trust me, I know her expressions by heart. Troll why? because I dont like Beyonce's off tunes? she sings this song terribly like when Aquillera sang I loves you Porgy... a serial of bad intonation.

Visit my page - trolls have nameless accounts without anything uploaded etc. I only say and write what I believe with the same nickname 10 years now and believe me Intonation in singing is my forte!

[GCassa94]

@LohengrinT can you please say to me when she wen out of Key?? I really can't find that part!

[workitout80]

@LohengrinT that must be the reason why Barbra accepted to film a video where she said how much she loved Beyoncé when she was awarded with the Millennium Award last May and now that she's planning to record a duets album, she's willing to sing with her. Now get back to stanning for.....Lagy Gaga lol dumb bitch!

[LohengrinT]

@workitout80

this beyond woman with the super fat ass and the dreadful intonation as well as ALL the rest (madona, that screaming mariah carey copy i keep forgetting her name etc etc) simply do not exist

The only person from pop world that has managed to attract our eyes in recent years is lady Gaga

[workitout80]

@LohengrinT you said it, your EYES ;) and yet you weren't able to reply with some logic argument to what I told you, that Barbra was so impressed by her performance that not only she had very kind words for her, but she decided to DUET with her on her next record. So much for someone with a supposed "vomiting expression". Eat this mad delusional hater.

[LohengrinT]

@workitout80

this beyondFatAss does not have a voice ;)

I dont know why Barbra supports her, perhaps Beyonde has paid 1 bill to her Jewish organizations? very probable

It is very easy to take Jews to your side, you just pay them

Only problem is, take them at your side usually earns u nothing (Mady paid millioins for a Jewish Grave and that cannot get her out of the nothingness she has fallen ;)

[JunkE4Theatre]

look at James all....good looking

[dannys2222]

SHE DOES NOT SING THIS AS GOOD AS BABS BUT SHE IS THE NEXT BEST THING!!!!!!

[nathanstan]

Way to go Beyonce. You always crank out your special talent. You are special and wonderful.

[birthdayjin]

i love her! she's my 2nd fav singer! and this proves how awesome she is!

[txdreamts]

omg she is such a great performer i love everything she does she did such a great job.

[DatBitch009]

Atleast Beyonce doesn't try to oversing other people's songs like Christina Aguilara.

[Beyoncefan1000]

my God this woman don't have 16 grammys for nothing, she proves it right here that she's the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go Beyonce!!!!!!!!!!!! Barbera was so proud!!!

[Annazayla]

Most of Bey's Grammy's aren't for singing, but for collabs.....in addition, Bey is a great stage peform. and singer--one of the best. Barbra is such a successful woman and she has accomplished what no other female enterin (Bey included) has in their entire career. I can understand why Bey wants to be the next Striesand.

[DatBitch009]

@Annazayla Actually 6 of Beyonce's Grammys are for her Vocals.

[Annazayla]

@DatBitch009 Uh...I beg to differ. At any rate she has 16 so far and she is probably going to win more with her new album that is coming out.

[DatBitch009]

@Annazayla I know she has 16 grammys. I said she has 6 grammys for her vocals.

[DelvinJordan15]

@Annazayla That's not true most Beyonce Grammys aren't from collaborations. 3 for Single Ladies, 1 for Halo, 1 Dangerously In Love 1 and 2, 1 for her album B'Day, 1 for I Am....Sasha Fierce, 1 for at last, and 2 for Crazy in love. Crazy in love his her song and Jay Z collaborated with her. So, Beyonce has 16 Grammys. You do the math.

[pearpeas]

Oh shit--with Barbara in the audience-----

I think Barb wanted to jump out of her box and grab the mike.

[corky7ca]

a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice!

[Annazayla]

Hopefully one day when Bey is Striesands age, the younger singers will show her the same respect that Bey has shown the legends before her.

[dxmania95]

@RelicHunter321 get a life!

[RelicHunter321]

How about you suck on my ass for 5 minutes and then get back to me.

[dxmania95]

@RelicHUnter321 im srry but iv got bettr things 2 do (thats not that digusting) and by the offr id say u dont get out much do u?

[papashowtyme]

"Very Well" done....she did that song justice.

[dxmania95]

the next person who says they didnt like this im gonna throw my compter out in my backyard! its beyonce she cant possibly sing anything wrong! clean your ears!

[RASHAD19able]

@dxmania95 lol....

[butterbeebrown]

horrrrible....

where was gladys knight 4 this??

[QueenofNeverland008]

I love listening to her singing so much!!so talented

[plus0size0barbie1]

i love it!

she can sing anything.

the hate on hereissimply a mess,'

if you dont like her dont listen. simplee*

[PhatMag09]

i swear every song that i love beyonce has sung...this one, desiree kissing you, wishing on a star...these are my favorites...please stop hating bc i dont see any of you with the negative comments on anything:)

[hedwigkiesler]

hmm, well, she's doing a hard job. not succeeding at all, but still. is it just me or is she out of pitch most of the time?

[blessed1982]

Beyonce's voice did nothing for the song. This is not her style, guess she has to stick to the growling and attitude riddled songs.

[kent504]

Barbara was looking bored.

[kankey100]

god i thank you for giving us fans beyonce the best ever god counteuing to give all the blessing god bless her and her family

[dimaswashere]

i think her voice is so good... i love u B

[RocknRollDina]

she's not as good as barbra but she lookek great and sang well

[willynne23]

u are really amazing B

[RSDjam17]

why beyonce try to sing everyone's song. she singing etta, Barbra, tina, diana, all the legends. is she tryin to make a statement. she will never be like them. i listen 2 this song today and it made me sad, beyonce just messed it up

[vclch]

wtf is ur problem! shes been invited to honor Barbara Streisand and thats because she can give her all. and in fact Barbara loved it.

[sedlarspela]

Barbara atcualy looked like she was going to cry. She's a legend, but I think anyone can be honored if Beyonce sings their song.

[henrysinaga]

or horrored?

[CarlyIsAGangster]

Beyonce is just great.

I like how she just sang the song ya know?

She didn't over sing it.

It was just lovely.

Barbra looked like she was enjoying it as well.

Personally I would of been SO nervous. I mean Barbra Streisand's song, and she's in the audience.

[LoveTheSupremes]

Barbara was looking at her like, "You better not phuck up my song, you brand new diva bitch." LOL!

[CarlyIsAGangster]

Hahahahaha.!!

Yeah she did look serious,

[sweetbutchilly]

OH MY GOD !!

is beyonce real !!

i mean is she humen !!

no such humen perfect like that ,

the face , the body and the voice

SHE IS THE BEST

[Marker773]

Beyonce sounds and looks gorgeous in this video, but the most beautiful moments are the shots of Barbra herself. So touching.

[tazhtazh]

aww.. Barbra looked like she's about to cry.

[dereckswim7in]

Beyonce has an excellent voice. Her beautiful body & perfect face are just extra blessings. But let's not forget she's a superb singer & not just a pretty face. Thank God for Beyonce.

[Charlottafan]

that's right :)

I love her...she is the best singer at the moment ;)

[bcairns47ntlworld]

look like two fried eggs hangin' of her ears

[LoveTheSupremes]

And you have no class, and don't know anything about fashion

[noahsarcooo]

beyonce always fucks up other peoples songs!

des'ree

barbra

toni

...

damn i wish she would shut the F&%$ up!

[whyte1luv]

Beyonce is great..She sang beautiful..Beyonce can take a song and remix and make it nice but Im glad she stuck to the essence of the song and still made it her own without remixing it..I know Barbara was proud..I would b if it was my song..lol

[Arnez2222]

love the performance...but i was scared that those earrings were gonna rip her earlobes lol

[musickidjg]

beyonce has a voice with a beautiful tone i never heard with any other singer! go to musickidjg please

[russellg7981]

she still aint no barbara

[kennylondon123]

and your point ?

[sugamama4]

who is barbara

[lilunchik]

She is so talanted, and due to it she could sing this song in a very nice manner, but agree no one can replace the best classic Barbra Streisand...

[lilunchik]

She is so talanted, and due to it she could sing this song in a very nice manner, but agree, no one can replace classic Barbra Streisand...

[titofagbenle]

shes not trying to replace anyone

[Annazayla]

Why try? She can't.

[999xander999]

She's amazing end of!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Genevaave]

Remember thiese words when she gets to old to do body shaking, she will transition into a movie career, and the only singing she will do with be this type of music. Mark my words. EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE B

[asuarez9]

beyonce could have sang the SHIT out of this song if she wanted to , she wasnt trying to "oversing it" , she sang it as a tribute too of course mrs babs the legend she did a great job like always i love ya b !!!

[AndreFLaranjeira]

I Love Beyonce, she can sing any kind of music, but in this, Barbra is better, the voice is much sweet! But she is great artist!

[rassac6]

This was great,,LOve to see them both sing..now that would work #1..joe

[killahskillz157]

she is a fuckin legend u go mrs.beyonce bitch

[yimheretoday]

I'm not a big beyonce fan but she sounds fabulous singing this. but did barbara even know who she was? lol

[kennylondon123]

ha!ha! you fucken CUNT!!

[kayleon1]

beyonce is amazing as always i love her

[7johndoe777]

WOW!... Beyonce is like the only artist who can performe at a honoring for someone.

For someone like her ( Beyonce) who has developed such a unique (and very much copied or attempts to) style, she can definately grace another's song inbetween their style and her own! :D

[sugamama4]

no fantasia is the queen of honoring. but B's my favorite artist

[Melshaaa]

she is good in copying sm else job, only! that is the truth

[filiseme666]

Maybe that is even more difficult to do, especialy when you copy someone famous... And she is doing a great job. Now my question is.....Did you found on You Tube someone to copy Beyonce original songs that exceptionaly as she does with other artists? If yes, send me.

[royalty333]

u took the words out my mouth filiseme

[MCFan20000]

beyonce isnt in a place yet, where anyone wants to honor her that way she does for other artists

[wooyea08]

Shanice does a WONDERFUL rendition of Halo. Look it up. I love her high notes she hits too. But the best I have heard Halo to this day ( And dare I say even better than Bey herself) is this guy on my page. I have his version on my favorites. And I'm not downin Bey becuz her voice is a Godsend but I wouldnt say she's just collasal. Her voice isnt different. Its beautiful as hell but it doesnt change n is very recognizable. U know its her regardless of what she's singing...hers or another's.

[kennylondon123]

ofcourse, thats wat real artist do!!

[jiggyjilli]

why are all her clothes suddenly all dark. hmmmm rihanna inspiration?? hmmmm maybe/maybe not

[kakafck]

Lol! Why?

[donnellgaines111]

Holy cow! This was simply amazing. I never would have believed it but Beyonce is truly a legend in the making.

[XxKatie0701xX]

i agree, shes a real legend ,looks like barbara quite enjoyed it too. x

[michiorange]

ahah l'orecchio si e' fatto tutto lungo x il peso dell'orecchino! pero' che bella che e'!

[ILoveBeeByMe]

ti amo amoreeeeeeeeee

[jennifergrnr28]

i love it

[Soetjoo]

Wauw Beyonce !
