"People" Barbra Streisand

From the wonderful summer of 1964, "People" was Barbra Streisand's first hit record. The single peaked at #5 on the Billboard pop chart and spent three weeks at #1 on the Easy Listening chart. The song, from the Broadway musical Funny Girl, written by Jule Styne and Bob Merrill, was included in the album of the same name recorded by Barbra Streisand for Columbia Records and released in September 1964. The song and album were arranged and conducted by Peter Matz.. I dedicate this to Leona.

Leona is very lucky to have someone like you.

Thank you for saying that, bigsoundize. I like to think that she was, but she did not appreciate me. She ended our relationship. Although 48 years have passed, I still think about her and wonder what kind of life that we could have had together.

This is from one of my favorites.. Funny Girl <3

The first time I saw the movie when I was about 4 or 5, I fell in love with Barbra.. And true love, lasts a lifetime.

If you don't already have it, I highly suggest getting this album. It's one of her best IMO.

Catman if you had asked me at the time I had written it I'm sure I could have given you an answer. But it most likely was just a joke. However I'm sure you lack the sense of homour to graps the joke anyway. Just like I don't care for the name CATMAN it is offensive to me.

Lindsay, I chose the name because I have cats which I have rescued and I have a sense of humor.

I'm not sure what motivated your comment, Thistles1234.  I am a man and have loved this since I heard it for the first time 48 years ago.

Jag är lite för olycklig för att tycka om. Verkligheten är lite annorlunda än din dröm.
