Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand sing "Get Happy" and "Happy Days Are Here Again" in a counterpoint duet. This performance is from episode 9 of the Judy Garland Show, broadcast on October 6, 1963. It is available in a number of DVD "Judy Garland Show" collections which seem to go in and out of print. U.S. viewers can probably buy or rent one of these DVDs online; worldwide viewers are probably out of luck.

Barbra was 21 years old at the time and received an Emmy nomination for her guest appearance.

On October 12, 2010, the hit television series GLEE featured this duet, with Barbra's role performed by Lea Michele and Judy's role performed by Chris Colfer. Lea was 24 at the time while Chris was 20 years old. Both Lea and Chris are very talented young singers and gave an amazing performance of this song. Kudos to GLEE for including this song on the show.

I still wish GLEE didn't feel the need to disguise the warmth of their talented cast members' voices with AutoTune. They hire wonderful singers, then electronically distort their vocal skills. However, GLEE is introducing a new generation of viewers to wonderful songs like this, so I can't really complain.

    LOL! THIS IS ABOUT AS GAY AS IT GETS. UNLESS BETTE MIDLER AND LIZA MINELLI ARE SWINGING AROUND ON THE CHANDELIERS! AND BILLY ELLIOT IS CLOGGING IN THE BACKGROUND. I LOVE THESE TWO LADIES SO MUCH IT HURTS! OK. SINCE I ASSUME I'M AMONG FRIENDS HERE, I'M GOING TO SAY IT. BARBRA STREISAND IS THE BEST SINGER WHO HAS EVER LIVED! "NOBODY, BUT NOBODY," IS BETTER. AND NOBODY, BUT NOBODY IS GONNA RAIN ON MY PARADE!

    The two best damned singers of their generation and do not forget it! Barbra was on her way up and Judy was starting her sad decline. But here the two met on equal turf and created one of television's truly great moments.

    Seems like Barbra had already that persona that is Barbra Streisand at the age of 21. But then if you look at it a different way, she is just a person that loves to sing and happens to look so beautiful. The smile when she sings, its really gorgeous. Judy on the other hand, its like she is just enjoying the showcase of talent. Just a laid back, girl get some of this fun of entertaining millions.. Anyway, I just saw this for the first time, its great.

    It's like Judy is passing on the mantle. What a mantle it was. And what Barbra did with it...
