Barbra Streisand is an American icon ... a national treasure! No other like her in the entire world. Her voice is a musical instrument that has been unmatched since she came on the scene in the 1960s in her 20s ... in April of 2022 she turned 80 years of age and is still going strong. She's always been simply AMAZING! 👍

Barbra Streisand is The World's Greatest Star.

When I’m 90 years old (if I live that long!) I will still be listening to Barbra Streisand.

BARBRA.. Artistic Originality and Brilliance. ✨

She is magic. She actually makes you feel the words. You are listening to perfection.

The greatest singing voice of my generation.

Eschew Obfuscation Mariah Carey is one I’ve personally never care for. She can do a lot with her voice but I feel she doesn’t sing from the heart. Too into herself in my opinion.

I'm very glad you have somehow accidentally stumbled upon the brilliance of Barbra Streisand. Is she an actress too you ask? Watch, and listen to her Oscar winning performance in "Funny Girl" where she delivers a rendition of "My Man" that is even more devastating.

A classic moment in the history of television--Barbra's one-woman TV show My Name Is Barbra. It sent out shock waves across the nation and some of us STILL have not recovered! Glad you have discovered her!

She wasn't old in this video.. In fact she was very young then. Check out all her music. She has material and high notes to keep you busy for years. She's a legendary singer, actress and director. Give a listen to "The Woman in the Moon" from her film "A Star is Born" recorder live for the movie.

Woman in the Moon... excellent choice!!!!!!

Barbra is the GOAT twice. Greatest Of All Time and Grammy, Oscar, Tony, Emmy.

You picked a good one to start with. There’s a lot to say about Barbra Streisand, but there’s no denying the power of her voice. Especially when she was started out, back in the early ‘60s.

A lot of power in her voice.

It's okay, son, I am 73 years old and I come from the 50's 60's and so on so on and so forth, and I sometimes listen to my parent's music which was "big band" and I LOVE Glenn Miller! So I say, don't be ashamed listening to Barbra.. Just go for it! 😁 ..

Check out When “The Sun Comes Out” from that same TV special. Singer, Actor, Director, Producer, Writer and EGOT winner. Phenomenal

Check out Barbra Streisand singing "Send in the Clowns." It's another incredible performance. Thank-you for posting this!

Barbara YES ! The woman is a legend.

Just perfection

Like butter!

Everyone knows she's a spectacular singer and actress.

Love your reaction to something brilliant! Keep checking out Barbra, the only artist to have number one albums each decade for six decades!☮️❤️

That song that she sang comes out of the musical called, "Funny Girl, which was loosely based on the life of the comedian/songstress Fanny Brice who was performing back in the 1930's (around there). Who was an American/Jewish descent in (Brooklyn)New York. She was first discovered by a famous producer/ director/ founder of the Zigfield Follies.Named Florenz ( Flo) Zigfield. He was very well-known at that time up and down Broadway, since he would run several shows at different venues located there at the same time. So the movie was about her, Fannie Brice. Back in the 50's and early 60's musicals were the rage and people loved them, because songs were blended in along with the actors speaking their lines to enhance the drama and effectively show what the character was experiencing at the time..they were looking for to appeal to the audiences emotions, and it had raving reviews if it was done well. And "Funny Girl" did!! Barbra Streisand won an Oscar for her performance and she deserved it! And if you dig deeper and check back to find the original Fannie Brice (which I did!) through You- Tube's vault, you can find not only videos of her,( Ms Brice's) original comic skits,and some of her original recordings, you'll find that "My Man" was one of them! And then you can compare both Fannie Brice's recording of the song and Barbra Streisand's, Barbra's was much better! Barbra got the way Ms Brice's personality, mannerisms, and voice down petfectly. It just wasn't coincidental that Barbra is also an American/Jewish woman from New York (Brooklyn) either! Even though they were born and lived decades apart and weren't related! That's why she gave an Oscar wortby performance! She also acted in the follow up movie called, "Funny Lady' It didn't win an Oscar for Barbra, but I thought it still was a good performance. An added note, it was produced by Fannie Brices son in law, who died long before the first one was made. This is for FY I,but I hope you found it interesting enough for you to explore these things I told you. Be blessed! 😘🌹

You gotta react to her singing in the central park in 67!!! That just.. wow

She can sing!! Legendary ....

I watch this frequently you frequently

When she got to Hollywood they told her she had to "fix her face". She refused. And she's not old here, probably 30.

About time!! Big thumbs up. Great reaction.

'My Man' is actually not from "Funny Girl' (and this live recording is years before the film)--it is actually an old song from th 1930's that was put into the film version (along with 'I'd Rather Be Blue") as they were songs that the real Fanny Brice actually sang back then. Streisand added it to her repertoire before she made the film.

My favorite song by her is called "Comin' in and out of your life". But there's no video to it that I know of.

She calls herself "an actress who sings"---check out a movie called "The Owl and the Pussycat" 1970

Yes, she was an actress and won the Oscar for Funny Girl. But, first and foremost a singer. You should check out Don’t Rain on My Parade from that movie. kzread.info/dash/bejne/X42aysF8oKSfg84.html

nice comments

You might know her from the ‘Meet the Fockers’ movies with Ben Stiller. I think she’s in the third one. A true legend! This song is from the film ‘Funny Girl’, released in 1968😄!

David Hasselhoff. LOL! Glad you finally jumped on the Barbra bandwagon.

You and this song were just what I was looking for. You are the first one reacting to Streisand that I have heard so far. I had forgotten. This was from the movie and stage play (i believe) Funny Girl with Omar Sherif! At the beginning, of movie she starts to sing but she sounds bad and she gets booed. You know what happens next. Thank you!

She is beautiful. When she started her career they wanted her to get a nose job. She said the nose stays. There was this actress named Jenifer Gray. She was in Dirty Dancing. I saw her in a movie or something later on and I did not know who she was. I knew I hadn't ever seen her face. She had the nose job and it completely changed her face into a whole other face. Her career never really took off. God, I loved watching you fall in love with Streisand. It was so cool to watch a man get her!

Before Barbra, there was Judy Garland. This is toward the end of her short life from a TV variety show she had for a short time. Check it out. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZYZ2saR_hNG9YJc.html

That's just the tip of the iceberg. Try Great Day from one of her movies.

Although I don't agree with her politics, I can separate art from the artist. I bought every album as they came out in the 60's & 70's. Loved her half a century and I refuse to let politics ( as long as not in the actual song) keep me from beauty & talent.

Well if truth be told...you probably don't like her politics only because you don't agree with them. Me, I resonate completely with her views so it makes her even more desirable as a human being and an artist.
