Posting on her 81st bday! How lucky to have lived in the age of Streisand. I was born in 1963 and got enjoy virtually all of it! May her reign continue! ❤ you Barbra
I'm so glad I lived through her era also...... I'm really enjoying her book/I hope you got it too.
@@decam4117 listened to all 48 hrs twice!
😮❤❤🎉🎉😢😮😮😅😅😅
I have long thought that future generations will envy us because we lived when Barbra sang.
She made it so easy to be a fan for over 50 years.
Absolutely love her❤
This is why no one else should ever sing these songs.
linda eder does
You may be right. She not only sings perfectly, she's distinctive.
see this, J-lo??????????????????????
The greatest female vocalist EVER! That voice, that talent ... incomparable! 👍🤗💓
Yep. Agreed. Yep.
Absolutely ❤️
I agree with you Travis, with the major exception of Ella Fitzgerald. Whom I heard Live Twice
Won't argue with that.........
…I think Anna Moffa would be up there too…
Magnificent. Like a Stradivarius violin powered by a rocket engine with a genius brain.
Your description is perfect!!!
Oh my holy mythical god... this was at her peak! Truly no one could touch her from 1965-1979... truly a vocal talent touched by THE finger of some god!! She has no "break" between her chest, belt and head voice! A freak of nature and how lucky we are to live in a time period we can have these recordings!
...she can sing ...
"Like buttah" doesn't do her voice justice...butter wishes it was rich enough to describe her voice. I'm 56 and I'm as obssessed with her voice as I was in 8th grade.
I would of loved to see her and Freddie Mercury do a duvet
You're right. There are no breaks in Barbara's voice. It's like a "pop" version of Joan Sutherland.
And only a year later was a star is born hard to believe it's the same person
Barbra is simply sensational! This is the most spectacular performance by any female singer ever!!!!
I can see myself in the audience. I wish this would be released on better quality dvd someday. That was an amazing night.
Are you the guy bouncing enthusiastically on the right side (on screen) toward the front?
Awesome
Holy cow...I can't even imagine getting to hear her at this concert...she is ON FIRE...WOW
@@billpiechocki actually...that would be me....having one, big, giant NELLY-ATTACK! 🤣🤣🤣
Wow how lucky can you get !!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
What could possibly be more exquisite than this?? Barbra at her finest, and damn shes so beautiful
Barbara is exceptional..... Just got her book on audible a couple days ago, its really nice that she tells the story of her life She took notes all her life diaries and kept them and then she just goes through them that is her book It almost just sounds like she's chatting step by step about her life..... I'm so happy she's still alive and doing well.... So any celebrities die way too young.
It's BARBRA. 😊
Her humming in the beginning of the way we were is the most beautiful humming I’ve ever heard, very motherly.
Why on Earth has this piece of gold not be remastered or something????!!! She's out of this world!!!
I can still remember this wintery night back in March of 1975. It was indeed live and just as Barbra began to hum beginning of The Way We Were, we began experiencing power outages due to major snowstorm here in the midwest. It was decades before this special was ever seen again (thanks to You Tube).
47 years ago! She is eternal ❤️
Never to be replaced as the greatest singer of all times. Add in her acting, writing, directing and producing ...she's a gift from heaven!
She sings here one of the best versions of "My Man"! This performance is oustanding and leaves me speechless! 🥰🌺♥️
Streisand was at her vocal prime during the early 70's (well, in fact she was always exceptional, but......). Not only her best rendition to My Man, she delivered Don't Rain on my Parade like she never had before nor did later. Only time we got to hear her singing How Lucky.......live and it's a breathtaking experience.
@@popboy0 Agree Armando !
Agreed
Thanks for posting. An amazing performance from the best vocalist of our time in her best voice. What a stunner.
Her body language is outrageous. She's not foolin around out there! She knows exactly where she is and what she's there to do & she approaches it like a prizefighter who's not going down for anybody!
Nobody can doubt at that time she was certainty the best singer around
I think Aretha Franklin would be an exception
Ray Charles said she was THE best white woman singer in popular music...
The most unconventionally beautiful woman in showbiz history.
That's what i like with her...nothing is conventionnal with her, neither her physique nor her charisma and TALENT...there's a little bit of genius in her.
perfect definition of her
i disagree. she is white and blond, which is the convention of beauty not only in showbiz but in overall american culture
@@andrewhahn7489 She is actually a brunette. Check out her early work and you will see her natural dark hair.
For me, Barbra is the Hollywood version of ugly. Still beautiful but not fitting in the Hollywood standards. In fact, the only feature that is unconventional is her nose and yet, it fits her face. She has beautiful eyes, lips, cheek bones, bone structure, beautiful glowin skin. She's just beautiful.
No one is better than Barbra Streisand in her prime! What a voice and what a personality!!!!
Great concert - Barbra was totally on Fire! Stunning lady with a big voice.
Love this Streisand special wish it would come out on remastered DVD, she is in great form singing songs from "Funny Lady", loved it when first shown never forget it...enjoy!
I'm waiting with anxiety that someone restore at last all the little pieces of live performances she made on tv in all these years, including this one. hoping will be soon!
@@fulviopetri1442 She's working on it. There's a 5-6 DVD set coming out within a year or two.
There's some bootlegs
@@fulviopetri1442 Yeah. This is not the entire special. And I remember Barbra and James Caan doing another duet where they actually danced together. Shortly after that, they ran out of time and Barbra said, in essence, “Well that’s live television for you.“ I hope that part has been found and can be restored!
@@JeffBazell how do you know? And how did you get to attend that show
That one guy in the audience, as soon as she walked onstage, filming her from behind....on Barbra's right....furiously clapping, rocking from side to side with such enthusiasm....that would be ME....having one, big, gigantic ...NELLY ATTACK!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Omg how amazing it must’ve been to be there.
Me 2. Im crazy about Varbra. Over 50 years and I would have given anything have been there. She's my idol.
Yo también pase el medio siglo pero esto no es cosa de edad la gente joven si tiene buen gusto con los años dirá lo mismo. Yo tengo cxvll years old
What a perfection!! No words what she can do with her voice, comes from heaven. She was, is and will always be a Diva, the #1 vocalist of all times. / along with Whitney and Celine. No one will ever be greater than them /
I agree with you. And I'm an opera singer. All I ever did was sing opera. But Martin you left out Ella Fitzgerald, who might have heard twice. she's flawless
I remember seeing this at my Grandmother's as we didn't have a color tv at the time. It was a GREAT show!!
So sweet Cheryll
I remember watching this when it was on tv in 1975. I was 9 years and it's stuck with me all these years.
i remember to , i was 13 .
I remember too! I was 14 years old and mesmerized. I’d seen Funny Girl and loved hearing her belt out her big hits from that movie. My goodness, I feel blessed that my lifespan overlapped with hers to experience her amazing talent.
this is great and she looks so fresh and beautiful
Such a pity that we don’t have more live Barbra from that time
Barbra ,The best performer ,singer for me ,love her voice .
I have been looking for this performance of How Lucky Can You Get for years and had nearly given up hope of seeing it again! Thank you so much for uploading!! Just had a cry watching it again!
it's a pleasure!
Oh Michael me too. So many memories of these movies and this era.
Her very best live performance.
1993 concert
Agreed Tom
This and Evergreen at the Oscars.
Absolutely!
The best singer ever!!!
She still got the voice simply the best❤👌
Think about this. A career of 60 yrs. There’s not one person who hasn’t heard a song of hers in their lifetime. Lucky us.
Nobody can ever replace the sweet and beautiful Barbra Streisand ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤if I was Dying, I would want to hear Barbra’s voice before I died. To me that’s heaven !
Perfection always!!! I have always loved Funny Lady - every time Barbara sang it was magical
It's BARBRA. 😊
A moment to think about what it must be like to be Barbra Streisand ...people at your feet, constantly..cheering, absolutely enraptured at your mere presence...not even making it into a room before the entire audience is giving you their love, over and over...
Her voice was at its peak in 1975. FABULOUS!❤❤❤❤
How perfect is her duet with James Caan; simply WOW!
Outstanding!
I fell in love with that girl in 1965 when I was 17 a senior in high school when her first hit song was "People" when I saw her picture I thought she was a knockout for real.
Although I was a huge fan even back then, I did not think that much of this special at the time. I remember her running out of time and not being able to sing People. But watching it again now, it is amazing. Thank you so much for posting it.
A GOD GIVEN GIFT HONED TO PERFECTION!!!
She is beaming. She kills it with her heaven-sent voice, talent and charme. She has left all those way behind her who would follow her: Whitney, Beyoncé, Mariah, (not to even mention Gaga) etc etc... She is one of a kind - and no one will ever get close to her.
Ohh Barbra best artist in the wiorld .What a voice I adore you forever 💜
Absolutely amazing.
Thanks much for posting, a gem! waiting for DVD!
WOW!!! Electrifying.
Thanks for sharing! I remember watching this as a kid and taping it on a cassette. It eventually wore out so this is fantastic even though some of it is a little out of focus
This is amazing - watching a piece of musical history
Hope this video will be someday in high resolution.
And high sound.
AMAZING
Amo Barbra.....Ninguém canta como ela . dezembro 2020

It's so wonderful to see and listen my love Barbra
Barbra sera ma star for always jusqu'à ma mort et peut-être après quand sa voix se mêlera à celle des anges ou des petits démons de mon cœur ❤️ ❤️
Peak Barbra Streisand. This is it
The audience was a who's who in D.C. and entertainment/sports: Sen. John Glenn, Mike Mansfield, Pres. Ford, Roger Mudd, George Foreman, Dick Gregory, Ray Stark, Cis Corman, Barbara Walters, Sec. of Treasury Wm. Simon (whose glasses I knocked off by accident when the lady in front of me threw her mink stole around, hit me in the eye, made me throw my head back right into Simon, as were were leaving the theatre-totally 100% true story), Eunice Shriver, Rose Kennedy, Sen. Ed Kennedy, many more.
Thanks Jeff

Such a beautiful human being, Barbra!
STUNNING.
I think in the film she should have looked like that. He never would have left her.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Several television veterans in the credits, including Herb Sargent (1923-2005), who went on to write for "NBC's Saturday Night"--what "Saturday Night Live" was originally called--later in 1975.
