not even close to being as good as streisand's version.
this is not an easy song by any means and she can hit the notes, yes, but streisand's timing and singing are effortless while this one's just trying way too hard
as for the girl, great voice but again her hiccupy style, ignoring the beat completely is annoying. it cannot even be attributed to phrasing or emotion because you can phrase and emote while staying in time. she's really off-timing a lot and throws off ...
great voice, great emotion but no sense of timing whatsoever??!! it's one thing to have unique phrasing,another to be constantly off the beat. even the orchestra is hiccuping to follow her. pity cause i like her voice and acting
THIS is the way this song's supposed to be sung - effortlessly spectacular
