I love Bette Midler. She's so multi talented and funny. This is one of my all time favorite Bette Midler songs.

I love Bette because she was no 70s stick figure and she proudly displayed her body despite what people thought. The song "Friends" written by Buzzy Linhart and Mark "Moogy" Klingman which appeared on her debut album "The Divine Miss M" released in 1972. On that LP she breathes new life into folk singer John Prine's "Hello In There". A stellar debut from a sensational artist. This is a real video gem from your collection. Never lose it and thanks for posting.

Let's not forget the songwriter, Mark Klingman, for this wonderful song. He's going through a tough bout with cancer right now. You're prayers will help to heal him.

Bette is crazy, and I love her. :D

[nancylp1111]

In the old days she used to come out for her encore in a bathrobe and flash the audience...She's just a character and even now she's probably one of the greatest all around entertainers in many decades.

I have realized that one of the keys to success whether it be a small business or a big dream is having amazing friends. thank you so much all of you for the love and support!

[DaveWollenberg]

Hit only #40 in Billboard. God bless! The Zoomers later covered it on 'Zoom.'

@KarenEngSwallows If you're a girl, how can you spout such filth?

[MalubaySyecado]

That's not Bette Midler, that's Buzzy Linhart in drag.

(True Bette Midler fans will get this joke and laugh their arses off).
