No one understands Sondheim like Bernadette. She could pull the emotion out of a phone book if he'd put one to song.
Cyrille Aimée 's album "Move On: A Sondheim Adventure" isn't bad either.
Very well said
I would have listened to phone book The Show by Sondheim
I’m the lucky girl who shares a birthday with her. I adore Bernadette and have been fortunate enough to see her five times in person. May she live forever however Stephen is probably already writing something for her in heaven upon her arrival which I hope isn’t for a very, very long time.
@@jamikathharrison3623 I'm picturing that right now, trying to think of some song titles,lol.
In my opinion, no one brings emotion like Bernadette Peters. She can stay completely still on a stage and still make you feel like your heart is being ripped out just from the tone in her voice and the look in her eyes.
She is part of these actors as the great Glenn Close whose beautiful soul you read through her eyes!
I saw her in concert and when she sang, I’ll be seeing you, I didn’t know how she got thru it! Tears running down her cheeks!❤
Bernadette perfectly sings my self as I miss my husband day after day.
Visiting Sondheim songs upon the news of his passing.
What an extraordinary performance by Ms. Peters.
Every performance in this concert is stunning. No words, really. I need to rehydrate after every time I watch them.
really tghis concert was one of the best
Jim Barry what is this concert?! Links?
@@kirklawson8513 I realize this is 2 years later, but on the odd chance you're still looking, it's Steven Sondheim's 80th birthday concert
@@kirklawson8513 and
YES! I agree. All the ladies brought their A-game!
I watched her sing this song not long after her husband died, and I thought my heart would rip out through my chest. I don't know how she did it. She is a gift.
When even Patti Lupone is sitting next to you hearing you sing, and admires you, you know you are exceptional. Long live Queen Bernadette.
Patti Lupone has a great voice but she should have keep it in the music venue.
@@saradecapua3264 you and your 0 likes really told the booked and busy Patti Lupone
@@ZariahQween She was great until she went from singing/acting to spouting her mouth off about subjects that she should stfu about. That['s how you lose respect of tyler's. Many actors keep their politics to themselves with is a good thing.
@@saradecapua3264 and that’s how you gain the respect of others. Artist exist even when they aren’t creating art, in those moments they have the same right to speak up as you have to comment something irrelevant to the video and the comment you replied to originally.
@@ZariahQween Yeah but they want our money and say they will leave the country burt, unfortunately don't.
Ms.. Peters is so talented that it sometimes seems supernatural. The way she ends this song has always amazed me. She drops her volume to a very low level, with delicate phrasing, yet, she does not lose clarity and each note is brilliantly sustained, and that is so difficult to do, even sitting alone in your room. To be able to do it in a theater filled with thousands of people, including the genius who wrote the song,, and in front of five of the greatest singer/performers Broadway has ever produced is, well, supernatural is the only word that comes to me. Ms. Peters' beautiful eyes were filled with emotion, and Marin Mazzie seemed near tears throughout, for reasons that are now completely understandable. What an enormous loss her death was to the theater. I am glad that we have so many of her wonderful performances, like this one, that we can visit and enjoy, and that we can use to introduce her great talent to new generations. The entire salute was terrific, and these six gifted ladies were the best of the best! Rest in peace, Mr. Sondheim, Ms. Mazzie and Ms. Stritch ...
All this plus it's not just a lowering of volume while keeping clarity and sustaining the notes but doing so with emotion. Amazing.
This is perfect. A master class. All emotion. Not a single scream - not one - but actual singing.
Can you imagine. Flawless. So there's Hell to pay. Goes through like a knife
i saw her singing this last night (about 10 feet away from me!!!) and there was not a single sound except the orchestra and her voice. you could feel all the attention in the place trained on what was coming out of her. spectacular.
@@htdart “not a single scream” HILARIOUS 😂
@@MissOtis317 I really mean it. There are quite a few successful singers who don't seem to believe that there's a difference between singing and screaming - we can see examples in certain performances of this very song.
@ I hear ya. And it’s such a beautiful song that is almost sacrilegious when people don’t sing it the way it should be sung. I always think of Stephen Sanheim cringing in heaven when he hears it sung wrong.😑
1:09 always breaks my heart. What a brave decision it was for her to take on this song and draw from those real, raw, painful emotions that flooded her. I have nothing but respect and admiration for this wonderful woman.
She seems to feel it all so deeply. Admirable.
@@danaekolyva3309 I think of my late husband who passed at the age of 47 to cancer in 2003.Not a day goes by that I don’t shed a tear or a million for him. He so loved her and loved Each time I was in a Sondheim production. God I miss him so ♥️
Quarantine period brought me here. Been playing this for a number of times and it always makes me feel very emotional.
Oh honey, same here. If you want to keep that mood, you should check "Send in the Clowns" by Judi Dench, or "As long as he needs me" by Patti LuPone
I feel the same way
Play it at least every other day
I'm in tears again. We were going to see her this autumn. Damn COVID19
I hope to meet her some day! Believe it or not I am actually related to her, she is my grandfather's cousin!
She plays with her voice. It's amazing. She just does whatever she wants with it.
Bernadette sings as if she is crying.....and to me, I think the look on Patti's face was respect. Bernadette might be singing this song over and over again but I think she did it in remembrance of her husband....even though it broke her heart every time she sings this. Marin Mazzie looks close to crying herself in 3.21
But absolutely, the so-called rivalry is only a manager war and agent fight as usual.... Good for business too...
@@theogoldberg8919 lol what rivalry? The only person Patti Lupone hates is ALW and Sharon Stone. She's never had a problem with Bernadette.
@@cannibalisticrequiem ALW ? Who is that ?
@@cannibalisticrequiem some say Patti was a bit frustrated over some parts Bernadette won in Broadway and she wanted to also create. But naysayers I guess...
@@cannibalisticrequiem tell me about the Patti Sharon feud ! Never heard of it before
The fact that her husband died a few years ago in a crash makes me cry in the first line already.
@trf12567 Me too. I was amazed to find out though that she is 71.
@trf12567 What a narcissistic way to view the death of someone.
@trf12567 Two men telling a dirty joke isn't sexual harassment unless directed at someone, but 99% of the time it's fucking disrespectful and degrading. Comedians still perform, they're getting Netflix specials left and right, tours around the world, roles in film & tv. There's no issue of comedy content, but some comedians unprofessionally bring it out to contexts in which that content becomes inappropriate and often uncalled for. You don't bring your work or talk about it outside of work spaces, it makes everyone uncomfortable or confused, especially those who don't understand it.
@trf12567 Only a tiny population of the world give a shit about what the CEO of some social site says. Btw, FB is an USA invention, most people outside of western cultures don't use FB e.g. Korea uses Kakao Talk, China uses WeChat. Americans make a big fucking deal about every word uttered from some politician or big business figure, thinking they run the world. In reality, the rest of the world take a peek at your narcissistic obnoxious chaos and walk off to something of more quality than quantity.
@trf12567 There are people who have a lot more integrity than some social business figure or unprofessional comedians that you could surround yourself with but you consciously choose to surround yourself by people drowning in narcissistic stubbornness. You join them in generalising and defending figures who project insecurities as if the world is ending and take too much enjoyment in making everyone uncomfortable.
The stroke of Sondheim genius when he makes the big build instrumental. He literally lets you sing in your head to the music. It’s simply perfection. Also, Bernadette is absolutely heartbreaking and glorious here. The inflection, the acting, the gorgeous vocals, the respect for the work; perfection.
Sondheim loves her singing, he writes most of his music with her in mind. She brings so much emotion into this song because her husband died of cancer about 2 years before this and it cut her to pieces, if you want to know what loss is, just listen to her emotion, it gets me every time I listen
He died in a Helicopter crash actually, but you're right- such an emotional song for her
It was 5 years after he died actually. I wonder what it would have been like if it were 2 years. Probably a lot more raw and incredible.
Angela Lansbury was his original muse. She could do and sing anything and had a range that would put Ms. Peters to shame. And I love Bernadette! She took the baton and has been exquisite.
She brings just as much emotion in performances prior to his death....
Keith Romero I cant find it but there is a video with Sondheim and Peter’s at a piano he plays and she sings and they discuss his music and he tells her that he thinks of her when he has written most of his music.
Maybe when Sondheim gets to know these wonderful talented people he has them in mind when he writes, he probably uses them all as his muse
my husband died 14 years ago and I have every emotion Ms Peters sang so well: heartbreak, sadness and yes, anger. I feel them all. DAY AFTER DAY, NOT A DAY GOES BY!
love and light to you....
Breaks my heart. Love to you.
I love how the song builds, from fragile and sentimental to tough and angry - a sublime performance Ms Peters
Bernadette Peters ... I die a little every time I listen to her ... I can't just say that she's my idol. I have many idols ... But Bernadette, she reaches deep inside my soul with every emotion she puts in her songs.
Better stop listening.
Ms. Peters and Mr. Sondheim. A match made in heaven!
Love love love this ...She is FAB-U-LOUS
God bless you, Ms. Peters. what a gift you have been and are to us. Such a humane and earnest performance. I expected nothing less. ❤
donna murphy's reaction is me any time bernadette does anything. god this woman is glorious.
One song in her hands becomes an entire show.
That woman is a Muse. She was for Allen briefly and more consistently for Sondheim. What a legendary career. Mine is hopefully about to begin
Good luck!!
lmao I love how the reply is literally 3 years late
Best of luck
Her generosity and sincerity as a performer are unequaled on Broadway. You look into that Lady 's Eyes and only thing you see is PURE AND SHEER BEAUTY
This is THE best rendition of this song by anyone.
Except perhaps Nancy LaMott.
+Paula -- look for Bernadette singing this on the Kennedy Center Honors musical tribute to Stephen Sondheim. You will like that.
Marin Mazzie!
Carly Simon did an AWESOME job with it, too...
Bernadette Peters to sing Stephen Sondheim
I die a little every time I listen to this song... She manages to dig so deep, just amazing ❤️
+Alex Van-Gelder of course, I don't know how she manages to perform this, I know I couldn't without breaking
She isn't having emotions. She is presenting them, with utter clarity.
Do you listen to it day after day after day after day after day after day?
The pain in this song is so real, I am widowed and these are the words.....
The face journey around 2:15 is such a brilliant piece of emoting
I wish the hadn't cut away from the close-up, because I'm quite sure there was more to see.
Favorite version of her singing this...never fails to make me cry. Love you Bernadette!
Not terribly long before this performance, she lost her husband. I feel like she just leaves her grief in this song. It tears me to shreds.
Such a lovely song. Always moving at my rather rapidly advancing age.
Wow! That was powerful, and so moving!
Absolutely breathless. I’ve been watching her for 30+years. I still am moved to tears. Thank you Bernadette for graciously giving your incredible gifts to all of us. ❤️🌹
Not a day goes by
Not a single day
But you're somewhere a part of my life
And it looks like you'll stay
As the days go by
I keep thinking when does it end
Where's the day I'll have started forgetting
But I just go on thinking and sweating
And cursing and crying
And turning and reaching
And waking and dying
And no, not a day goes by
Not a blessed day
But you're still somehow part of my life
And you won't go away
So there's hell to pay
And until I die
I'll die
Day after day
After day after day
After day after day after day
So there's hell to pay
And until I die
I'll die
Day after day
After day after day
After day after day after day
Till the days go by
Till the days go by
Till the days go by
Brava 👏👏👏
Thank you it's always nice to have the lyrics along!
Seeing Marin Mazzie watching this makes me so sad, heightened by Bernadette Peters’ incomparable performance ❤️
I have only recently decided to listen to the songs Bernadette Peters has sung. It makes me feel bad I didn't uncover her before. What a voice, and performance-in each and every song she performs.
Dragostea
Have you heard her rendition of Cupid? It’s a masterpiece. It is on her cd I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight. I love every song on it, but Cupid and Hills of Shiloh/Faithless Love are brilliant.
better late than ever. you can enjoy her repertoire on youtube at your leisure.
Gets me every damn time😫😫😫🤧.... I can't stop crying because this is simply the best woman to sing this. She emotes and digs so deep and connects so well. Bernadette Peters the living legend💓💓
This makes me cry, every time
This is why l love Bernadette Peters and Stephen Sondheim!
Oh we understand you Dear Kurt...
this song is so heartbreakingly beautiful and no one can make your heart break like Bernadette Peters
I love listening to her sing this song.. she's so sincere brings tears to my eyes
utterly devastated. Goodnight, Stephen.
This is the most vulnerable and truthful I have ever seen her. How powerful to see such a powerful woman be so honest with such a beautiful tone
Sondheim made my plagued 2020 better than I thought at first it'd be before I die out of sadness and exhaustion. Still here 💙
Such a song from Sondheim: he was a genius. How we miss you, Mr. Sondheim. Thank you for expressing the inexpressible: and yet the completely, intimately known within us all.
Patti looks like she's gonna cry any moment. This is so moving!
Ugh this song hits harder with the passing of Sondheim
In 1970, I fell head over heels in love with someone who couldn't feel the same way I did. The heartbreak was crushing. Even today I still wonder how and where he is.
Bernadette Peters is a treasured artist. What we see/hear in this performance is not unique for her. She has ALWAYS connected on a very personal level with the music and lyrics of the songs she performs. I can remember her walking on ‘cold’ on TV talks shows - over 40 years ago - and filling her performance with life that had me sitting up from my seat.
She is a legend of stage and concerts. One of the Greats. ❤️
My God, I know this was years ago, but Bernadette Peters was always so angelic and absolutely beatific that I almost cannot shake her out of my mind.
The incredible strength it must take to sing this time after time. Knowing she sings it for her husband that died makes it that much more of a gift.
Does this girl age? My goodness she looks exactly the same. Her hair is gorgeous.
This is some years ago. She looked pretty good then -- late fifties - maybe sixty. But by now she's had the usual surgeries and is no longer herself.
Ninecats Magee this is a rude and untrue comment. She looks exactly the same today.
@@michaelalvarez_ Nah. She looks like people do and what's wrong with that? This video is old. 2010. She was sixty then and now she's seventy. Had her neck and eyes worked on, dyes her hair. So what? She doesn't sound the same either. Singers lose their pipes. Especially women when their estrogen levels drop. She's got a wobble even here. It's normal. That's how it goes.
@@ninecatsmagee8384 I won't agree with you at all. She had very smart and little adjustments this is no Dolly Parton's ugly botox caricature of a Joker face lol. She looks splendidly natural and shaped at 72 (check her recent impeccable vocally above all live) She is an eternal nature...
@@michaelalvarez_ of course it's rude but no she changed and thank god! She is smart to preserve her beautiful face and wrinkles. She is a comedienne and you have to show your face as a map of all of your experiences.
I'm pretty sure I've listened to this at least ten times today.
I've watched your performance of this song in so many different ways, different days, different moods. Still....this is a match made in heaven.....Bernadette and Not a Day......Your signature song. Congrats!
Bernadette owns this song. She is sublime. Her rendition is in a league of its own.
Beautiful song, beautiful lady. Bernadette was made for this song. Her interpretation is sublime.
Such an iconic voice and I love her rendition here!! Very emotional song.
It breaks my heart every time I see or hear her sing this song. I saw her sing it live in concert in 2009 and I was in tears.
They all bring a different stand out skill to this that seem like signatures for each of them. Bernadette has the purest whisper singing voice, Audra has ridiculous range, Patty has an unparalleled power voice, Marin has incredible control, Donna is the best character singer and Elaine is just utterly Elaine.
#jpetersgoyanks EEEEEXAAAAAAAAAAACTLY
How does Bernadette sit on a stage, watch the others perform, stand up, and just let the emotion flow? It's like going from 0 to 60. There is no chance to warm up or slip into a role. It's just stand up ....and open a vein.
She is a superb actor who happens (amazingly) to be blessed with a monument of a singing voice. The double barrel.
Her vocal technique is astonishing and underrated at large (not by the community that gets it so to say). And, at base, to act - portray character - is unique. No wonder Sondheim gravitated to Peters.
Oh god, this woman. She breaks my heart every single time. And I always come back.
she is extraordinary...tears every time I see this video
it doesn't get better than this,thank you
Anyone who has known loss feels themselves in this song, this performance.
I was just watching "The Jerk" and it brought me here! Bernadette is amazing 👏 I've always thought she was stunningly beautiful and she has the most beautiful voice!! I just wanted to say that! Luv her curly hair, I'm a curly hair girl too!!
This is such a beautiful song, and no one sings it like Bernadette!
I agree. This is the best rendition of this song ever.
She's amazing as always! Thank you for posting this!
She did thid shortly after the tragic loss of her husband. The emotion is real … 😢
Love you Bernadette! A very talented Lady indeed!
Bernadette will always be the greatest interpreter of Stephen Sondheim's music and lyrics; she is absolute perfection! 😍If you enjoy this video, I highly recommend the video of her singing "Johanna" from Sweeney Todd, too. She sings it beautifully and brilliantly!
She sings them the way he wrote them. Simple-in theory.
She really knows these lyrics. Makes me cry every time.
I had the pleasure of seeing her in one woman show in London. Amazing. A superstar.
I saw her too. How wonderful and rare. That was not the best performance. After the show, in Joe Allen, she sang while Jimmy on Piano a lovely melody just for him. That was beautiful and couldn't ever be repeated. Pure Magic!
Beautiful song beautifully sung by a beautiful woman. The emotional connection is overwhelming.
This just breaks my heart. love all these women.
That look she gives at 2:13 of exasperated sadness 😍 what power!
Look at 2:17 what an artist, what a human.
That's incredible. She's incredible. Wow.
Lucky enough to have been taken as a youngster to "Songs By Sondheim", a stage production featuring his work and it was wonderful.
how can you not adore miss Peters singing this beautiful number xx
Bernadette. You may not even read this. But I would like to tell you that even though bad things do happen to good people that you are not forgotten. Even if you haven’t realized it, God has sustained you through all of this and will continue. Please know that you are loved so much by our savior Jesus Christ. Thank you so much for digging deep and allowing your life experience to be shown in such a way as to help others who have walked a similar road. I pray your healing will continue and your burden will be lightened. James
Excellent performance she really is such a fantastic performer bravo to you Bernadette peters
This is a group of amazingly talented women!!
Ive been told that years before this performance, she lost her husband in a plane crash, so I can only imagine what this most feel like to her. I saw her recently in NJ and she embodies Sondheim in the best beautiful way.
Absolute perfection.
Goosebumps...
I agree. She's so wonderful. Perfect interpretation of this Sondheim masterwork. Thank you, Bernadette!!
Magnificent. Pure art!
The fact that she sings this for her husband makes me cry even more.
She is such a powerful and gorgeous performer. I just wish that the audience had waited a moment before applauding to give the song the silent reflection it deserves.
Such control and yet freedom to make each performance unique.
This was the quickest 4:24 in my life
This cuts deeper than almost any other performance.
I had the amazing opportunity to meet this woman last year and have lunch with her !!!! She’s absolutely amazing !!!!
Who paid? :)
Ghosh this is why I love Bernadette peters as a whole such a charming person with talent to spare it goes to show you that she is still such a great singer who gave us the voice of rita the stray cat from animaniacs
and that is why she was Sondheim's muse.
Right in the feels.
This is the gold standard l! Bernadette gets all aspects of this delivery spot on!
Never. She's always close to tears, you can tell the song speaks to her. ^_^
