neither are "better", omg. you can't even compare them. this is the original, and lea's is an amazing cover. that's it. the rest is personal preference.
.......How can u even compare this to Glee???? This is REAL golden age Broadway/Hollywood. OBVS the voices are gonna sound different....just like any older songs/singers. Lea just sounded more modern..... (EXACTLY why I hate glee...they ruin the original song with their good pop voices).
OKAY PEOPLE!!! JUST BECAUSE BARBRA STREISAND IS A LEGEND DOESN'T MEAN THAT LEA MICHELLE'S VERSION IS CRAP!!! IN MY OPINION, LEA DID 10X BETTER, AND THAT'S AFTER HEARING THE BARBRA STREISAND VERSION FIRST! SERIOUSLY, JUST CALM DOWN!
okay so this might be the original version, but the glee version is SO much better, it's the truth. i'm not saying this one isn't good, glee's version is just better. and yeah barbara might be a "legend", but it just happens that a newer version was performed better.
I second that. She was awful... The film version of this song had such better orchestration than the original Broadway one, that's for sure - and had more "oompff" - but that horrible girl just tortured this and should not be allowed to sing it. She did an ok job on the recording, but I cannot stand the no vibrato till the last moment style that most pop/musical theatre type singers are doing these days... it's awful!
@rlee1976 you guys need to be open to change, and the change that different artists will bring to a piece. That is what makes a piece interesting, right? Not saying the Lea Michelle version was the best, but it definitely wasn't awful. She is good...and it isn't really her fault they do so much autotune crap on the show.
Shame on all the little ones who think the Glee version is better! I'm a total gleek and yeah, Lea Michelle is lovely, talented, and a solid performer. But Barbra Streisand is a LEGEND, her epic intensity just gives me goosebumps! There's something about Lea's sound that's just too "clean", she doesn't take risks like Barbra does.
It makes me laugh to hear that the youngens think that Lea's rendition is better than Barbra's. Given, hers is unique and she is great in her own way! But seriously people, do you know who Barbra is? She is the inspiration for so many people for decades and generations. No Barbra = no Funny Girl broadway and film ! Have some respect.
This is a powerful and truly outstanding performance by an extremely talented and gorgeous Barbra Streisand! Barbra gives so much energy and raw talent to this classic. I love you Barbra. You ROCK always & forever in my heart!!
you did an awesome job putting this video together! i like the song transition from one to the other. Did you do the song or is it available on CD? nice video- have seen it at least 13 times.
Great editing. I love all her versions, and its interesting hearing her thru the years. Her last 'Myy' before 'parade' is spine tingling!! I also love her medley version on 'My name is Barbra'. Thanku 4 uploading!
i love this song!!!

Don't tell me not to live
Just sit and putter,
Life's candy and the sun's
A ball of butter,
Don't bring around a cloud
To rain on my parade.
Don't tell me not to fly,
I've simply got to
If someone takes a spill
It's me and not you.

it's better to watch the film Funny Girl with this song. Go look for that scene and it's pretty much the same as the Glee version.
Glee did a good job with it though.
