What a wonderful night. Barbra blew us all away. Others had performed before her, e.g., Michael Jackson, but when she commanded the stage, the excitement reached a fever pitch. She could not have been better. For me, one of the greatest moments of her career. This song was the perfect prelude before Bill coming on stage.
I too am watching this in 2024 and I got goosebumps all over again watching the legend Barbra Striesand perform. She is Gods gift to us. She is caring, she speaks only the truth,she is so intelligent, and so incredibly talented. I don't know if she has finally accepted that she is just as beautiful on the outside as she is on the inside. Hello Gorgeous!! Lol. Love you Babs 😘
Hello from Paris/France/Europe ! Inspiration and god-given-voice gives this Art of Singing mastered with her soul . She let is flow and it reaches straight our souls too... Miss Streisand is The Ultimate Artist - I wish Judy Garland could have been as healthy as Barbra...- Many many thanks for this clip. From the bottom of my heart. André.
I remember watching this on live television. This was a huge deal seeing her perform live on television because this was before she did any of her return concerts in the 90s. There were flash bulbs going off everywhere. People found it difficult to understand her stage fright because she looked so relaxed up there. That song went straight from Barbra's lips to God's ears! BTW, I think if Frank Sinatra saw Trump dancing to any of his songs he would puke.
I love how LA STREISAND'S 'tea' is still onstage when she leaves, and introduces the president of the united states. lololol she is such a diva, i LOVE her.
On January 19, 1993, a cast including Michael Jackson, Barbra Streisand, Elton John, the Alvin Ailey Dance Troupe and actors Jack Lemmon and James Earl Jones performed at the 42nd Presidential Inaugural Gala at The Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland.
@ferrierepc Could not have more summed up my thoughts--and it isn't like Bill Clinton would have had any reason to be distracted what with taking on a very hard job either than morning or the next morning. not sure if this was the day of or after.
Dude.....you're not getting the jist of the moment. Whether Clinton was looking away or not, it was a moving moment. You seem to want to take away from we who were moved, by the song, the man, the mood, that very sweet moment when we were seeing something new, an opportunity. The song is about just that and when we, peacefully, change the powers that be, that too is this song. That it is being sung by a legend is too, that song. Was not a moment for pointing out nano seconds of distraction. Ciao
@donpazer Did you notice this is 20 years ago (almost more than)? If you are talking about chelsea she has certainly changed in 20 (almost plus) years! Check out any photos online or her or her wedding photo inperticular.
I am seriously laughing out loud at this clip as I either never remember chelsea victoria that young or I forgot what she looked like. I probably hardly remember that far back as that was WAY in early 1993!! LOL So sweet looking. she looked very much in awe of her father walking on stage. and I forgot if I saw this or not a long time ago but is there any significance of BC sitting with that big group of people. were they like worker people for the day after?
@blykken or he could have been genuinely distracted and then genuinely touched. What with being a major leader of a large country less than 30 hours away and all. I agree with above post. He might have been distracted but it isn't like he was doing something for "political gain"
@savoytruffle4 That is true! :) LOL! I wonder if the innaguration festivities seemed a little bit intimidating to her. Not scary but just a big adult environment. Also, not guessing 12 year old chelsea would have cared if B. Streisand was a God as that was just a music person her "parents" listened to.
I’m listening to this here in 2024 and we need this now more than ever. It’s so sad how bad things have gotten and this makes me so incredibly sad.
Me too

Barbra, the greatest entertainer the world has ever seen 😊
The most famous person in that room on that night. Yes, absolutely. And possibly the one most able to bring inspiration and hope to everyone.
I was in the audience that night. Was one of the biggest thrills of my life.
Queen of standing ovation Barbra Streisand! Perfect in all aspect!
The most beautiful rendition of God Bless America 🇺🇸 ever sung ❤

I've been a fan for 50 years. She never disappoints.
AT 1:38 I love Bill's face.
You can tell how much he appreciates Barbra.
Everyone there was in awe of her.
How could you not be?
Well God wanted someone to have the perfect voice... crazy
A beautiful song, a beautiful rendition of this Berlin classic. Thank you, Ms. Streisand for the lovely vocals. Thanks for this post.
Best rendition of God bless America 🇺🇸 ever!
What wonderful times of hope!
Trump and company ruined it! President Biden he's worked so hard to heal us. Vote blue 💙 across the board in 2024 😊 😊😊😊😊
As always, Streisand knocks it out of the ballpark!
I was proud then, I sure ain't now!
Barbra & Bill. Nothing better than that!
What a beautiful tribute to America!. Thanks for this post.
Well done my friend. ❤️🌹😻💋😍🤟
The ending classic Streisand!
I love how LA STREISAND'S 'tea' is still onstage when she leaves, and introduces the president of the united states. lololol she is such a diva, i LOVE her.
Loved those days! What has happened to our country since trump arrived on the scene? So scary and disappointing 😞
nr. 1 she still is ! (and how she performed in the Vanguard 2 months ago was simply amazing and shows us ,she's still THE big living legend .
Soberbia interpretación ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just noticed that that's the same necklace she wore in The Prince of Tides in the dinner party scene!This is wonderful and she is amazing.

If God had a voice, She would sound like Streisand.
La perfeccion llevada a lo insuperable❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 2:19
@AnneLiesveld Love the face too! :) Bill was genuinely giddy and looked very much to be
having fun.
Barbra is fenomenal and so wise : i do love her liberal thoughts : the best
Do you have anymore of these videos with the other performers?
Gorgeous…🙏

Can't wait to hear her sing at Hillary's inauguration ball.
Did she end up going??
LOL , Still waiting ?
When he made a first visit to The King David Hotel in Jerusalem my staf said that he was a creep, over 25 years ago
@CarlyIsAGangster can I be a spy and know what some of those peoples' thoughts were like a row behind them that could touch them if they wanted to??
We are so lucky that Barbra choose to be a singer than politician.
Too bad Trump decided to become a politician. What a pig.
@blykken or he could have been genuinely distracted and then genuinely touched. What with being a major leader of a large country less than 30 hours away and all. I agree with above post. He might have been distracted but it isn't like he was doing something for "political gain"
No teleprompter.
There was a teleprompter, saw it on stage.

lol
Hillary has fangs, i swear!!!
Now she's just a misled ,bitter ,political, divisive liar.
Wspaniała jak zawsze,szkoda,że przybyło Jej lat
A fiend and pedo, we did not know back then either.
This just in Barbra begs to sing at Trump gala, Trump gives her the finger
Instead he got Kellyanne and Sarah Sanders to sing "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves."
I’d say she can sing!
