She is mind-blowingly brilliant.... My God. Thank you. More of her please🤩

No female singer, ON THIS PLANET, could top her LIVE, RAW VOCALS

Barbra is a true living legend, she is in a class all by herself👍🏽😘

She is the whole package...gifted AND talented. Not many artist can top themselves over and over again like Streisand has. She has a brilliant musical legacy, but has succeeded in all mediums. I find her to be, no less than, astonishing.

She is the greatest of all time!

I grew up listening to Barbra, such a great voice, great stylist, but I never has heard this song before, so thanks!

I started watching Barbra Streisand in the 60s. You should watch the black and white video of Barbra singing Cry Me A River on The Edge Sullivan Show. Brilliant!

I love your smile when you have such a wonderful reaction to Barbra's singing. So much joy!

That song was from a play Porgy and Bess on Broadway about a black girl in the old South of America. What a song rendition. Stunning control. Been listening to Barbra since I was 12 years old, she taught me how to sing. react to more of her. If you can please react to "My Man" from her first movie Funny Girl. Amazing!!!

Welcome to the Barbra Streisand rabbit hole that we fans of her's [some of us for 6 decades] have been down. Your reaction was a delight to watch. I chuckled when at the end you appeared lost for words on how to describe what you just saw and heard. She has that affect on everyone, and it's great to see the younger gen appreciate this rare and gifted vocal talent that hasn't been matched since she landed here in 1962. This song was a live performance on her TV special titled "Barbra Streisand...and Other Musical Instruments," which couldn't be more apropos, don'tcha think? Her voice is like a musical instrument. She can bring you in like a soft violin, hold you with the clarity and precision of a piccolo, or blow the top of your head off with the power and control of a French horn. And you're correct, she is self- taught, but it's deeper than that. Barbra sings from a place of truth and authenticity. She was once asked how she manages to hold a note for so long, her response was "Because I want to." She did try a singing coach once, but found the technique so unnatural, that she felt it detracted from her natural ability to sing a song by interpreting and emoting the lyric. Marilyn Bergman, the late great lyracist and wife of lyracist Alan Bergman, once said..."Barbra Streisand, the best singer that any lyric writer could ever have singing their song.” She's a marvel for sure, and I look forward to many more great reactions, like this one, from you. 👏👏👏

I had that album as a young kid and that was my favorite. Im 61 years old and she’s my forever favorite. The best in my opinion! 🥰

Watching you watching Barbra...that look on your face says it all! She's captured you in the same way she has captured all of us over the years. I don't know if you like to watch movies (musicals) but you have to check out her acting career also. A few on repeat for me are Funny Girl, On a Clear Day, Hello Dolly, What's up Doc just to name a few! Hope you will check them out I think you will enjoy them.

One of my favourite Barbra Striesand songs is "Somewhere". Highly recommended

Love Streisand... & love this reaction vid... ... Just became your newest Sub... 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽

we need more of this. Stunning

She can hold extremely long phrases and then top it off with a riff, all in one breath, like all the great ones. The lungs! Her expressions work brilliantly with the music and the message. She broke the beauty mold of the day, and looks lovely. She’s a natural on the screen. She can do everything except dance, LOL. For that, you have to go to Liza Minnelli.

One of the greatest performances from one of the greatest singers. Can't be beat.

FYI - This was from a TV show she recorded. So it was recorded live but I'm sure with many takes. Lovely piece and arrangement for her voice. You had me at "exquisite"!!! Ha

You should to see " a piece of sky" and "evergreen" , it is something like 😮😮😮.

You are so much fun to watch! Have you ever heard her sing Steve Wonder's "You and I" from her Lazy Afternoon album? It's one of my favorites.

Please continue to react to Barbra. The joy of watching you listening to her brings me JOY!

THE VOICE

Barbra is teaching a Master Class in how to interpret and sing a song. It was live in front of a British audience from a tv special called Barbra Streisand - and Other Musical Instruments.

Great review. My Mam used to play her in car when I was a kid. Been a fan ever since. Barbra is one of a kind.

Yep she blows your mind! There will never be another female vocalist to come close; you need to go down the Barbra rabbit hole.

The most beautiful voice ever!

Very nice reaction for the great Barbra and a great song! I would recomend you another one from her: since i felt for you. Thanks.

I just turned 59 and Streisand was HUGE growing up. Even the other celebrities were in awe. Hands down best voice ever!

If you want to give your ear drums a treat then listen to Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered and Melancholy Baby by Barbra Streisand. Actually, the whole album is great. Old standards slowed down. She was only 21 years old when they were recorded.

It's so lovely watching you GET this vocal. She is simply perfect in her vocals.

🙋🏻‍♂️Oooo! Me! 🙋🏻‍♂️ Pick me! 😅 (This was FAB-u-lous! Thank you!) From the same TV special-a duet with Ray Charles, "Cryin' Time/Sweet Inspiration". Loving your good vibes! Thank you! 😊

Really enjoyed your reaction. You were correct to bow down and worship to the incredible vocals only barbra can give you access to. It's all there. And you are changed forever.

Thank you so much for this. I realy enjoyed your reaction to bardra. And the voice. There will never be another barbra stresand. I was thirteen years old when i first heard barbra and her voice just captured me like it has done for you. And i am 62 now.. I still think her superman album is one, if not her best album. She was on a roll of success after a star is born.. Her voice on the superman album it was at its peak...

Without a doubt one of the greatest voices of all time, Barbra Streisand has everything one can expect from a great singer, try watching her 1986, if I´m not mistaken One Voice concert performed at her house to a selected few lucky people, simply delightful, outstanding, what I would give to have been a part of that evening. I´m surprised to see that you have uploaded this reaction 9 hours ago, as I am writing without your channel being flooded with likes and comments, what a crazy world we live in these days. Anyhow, I appreciate your reaction not to mention your refined taste in music. Cheers man.

Barbra Streisand and Other Musical Instruments - a TV special. It would be best if you watched it.

November 1973. Words and music by Truman Capote and Harold Arlen.

I loved it... Thanks.. Like "Enchanted evening" from the Broadway Album.. "Piece of Sky". Cheers.

The reactions to Barbra's live performances like this gorgeous one are so superior to music from videos which are by and large dated at this point. Good examples are the "Memory" or "Somewhere" vids. "Somewhere" for instance so much more moving ifrom either the "One Voice" concert" from 1986 or "Barbra the Concert" from 1994. NOTHING beats experiencing Barbra live but a live recording is the next best thing!

The song is from a musical set in Haiti and it's sung by a prostitute --the lyricist, Truman Capote, who was from the southern US, used an approximation of African American dpech patterns to concey Haitian speech, hence the "never has," "road to take me whwre i wanted to be took," etc.

Just superb

You actually heard her hold a note in the Donna Summer disco song. But today people are so used to computer manipulation that you didn't seem to attribute that perfectly held note to her. That is the downside to the tech enhancements in today's music. We lose appreciation for the most talented and professional artists.

Barbra is really a great singer and I've always preferred her to Celine Dion. In the interviews, she doesn't really seem nice.

This is so very 'live', she's really very bad at lip-syncking
