Liza Minelli is looking rough...

@boynamedalexxx I'm with you. Eew. I agree with thamestango about Marin Mazzie's simple, emotional rendition. Especially with Sondheim, just shut up and sing.

oh michael ball you beautiful talented man
-
wish he would come to the States such a good singer they don't make his kind any more

Michael has a great voice, but to really see this song performed watch Marin Mazzie at the Sondheim 80th birthday celebrations. She is so still but the emotion is wrenching. In fact the sequence of the six ladies in red doing solos is a master class in how to perform a song. Watch it people !!!!!!!!!

This song tells evey aspect of what I feel for the guy that I madly fell in love\ over 35 years ago .Circumstances has led us to different directions.... but the feelings will always be there between us.... and no one, nor nothing will change that. He is the love of my life and my forever lover.

@couturesixfour When you've played starring roles in West End and Broadway theaters for decades, your packed houses easily justify the vibrato.

@superduffman22 This song is all about "wanting"; desire, passion, and, ultimately, obsession. It's an infatuation that isn't returned. It goes beyond love. It's not about being intimate or sentimental (which is what love implies...this is pain and anguish. That's why the only time the word is used is when referencing "you *said* you loved me". The end of the song carries realization that there is no real love here...just unrequited desire. It's called "Losing My Mind" for a reason.

@MrSwifts31 I wondered that, too. It really, really changed the entire number for me, though. "Want" is so much more effective.
Other than that, I found his performance self-indulgent & surface-level. All of the gestures and presentational expressions took me out of the song. This is, possibly, my favorite Sondheim number. Its genius is that you can literally stand in one spot & not move at all & deliver this gut-wrenching song with honesty & anguish, & it's better than "staging" it would be.
