My goodness. People usually lose that power or presence as they age, but this is just absolutely amazing. She has only gotten more amazing as time has gone by.

Nobody can sing this song like Judy Collins. She sounds the same as she did 50 years ago! She has aged very gracefully... Thank you so much for your years, Judy this is still beautiful and it brings tears to these eyes.

She really took care of her voice over the years. She still sounds beautiful.

This was one of my mom's favorite songs and favorite singers she passed away in 2017 my 28-year-old son Jeremiah passed away in 2021 from alcoholism at the age of 28 my 40-year-old daughter is having a major struggle right now with alcohol please pray for us thank you and thank you Judy❤😇🐸🙏🙏🙏❤

Wow that Oboe was killing perfect!

REST IN PEACE STEPHEN SONDHEIM.

It’s been said that if amethysts could sing, they’d sound like Judy Collins. Stunning and beautiful!

Watching this is like 1967 all over again! All of us have aged -- but she is still the same.

Her voice hasn't aged, if anything it is richer and more beautiful.

Just stunning at age 82. His light is shining on her.

Judy Collins was born in Seattle, Washington on May 1st, 1939. She is a Grammy Award-winning American singer and songwriter with a career spanning over 60 years. She is known for her eclectic tastes in the material she records (which has included folk music, show tunes, pop music, rock and roll and standards) for her social activism, and for the clarity of her voice. Collins has released 28 studio albums, 4 live albums, numerous compilation albums and 4 holiday albums. Today, May 1st, 2021, she is celebrating her 82nd birthday. UPDATE: She is now 83 (May 1st, 2022). Now 84 (May 1st, 2023)

One of THE most magnificent voices of my time.

Wow ... Judy is one of those rare talents whose voice has remained virtually (remarkably) unchanged. Send in the Clowns will always be hers.

Face of an angel, voice of one too. In this dying world as the great tribulation draws near I'm so glad I grew up when the world was beautiful and singers like Judy were there.

From a 75 year grizzled old coot….the tears flowed. And freely.

I took my mom to see Judy Collins perform when she came to our city. Her performance of this song was nearly identical to this video. At her age to still have that voice is basically unheard of. She's still as good as she ever was. They'll never be another one like her.

This lady is in a class all by herself. The Angels in Heaven take lessons from her. 🙏❤👼

He wrote the anthem of my life. He died on my birthday. Rest in peace, the creator of the most beautiful ballad of my life...Every birthday I will listen and shed a tear in honor of you our dear...,🌿

She is a cousin of mine, always have enjoyed her music since I was very young. She is unwavering perfection

I never hear you sing send in the clowns that tears don’t come to my eyes and I’ve listened to you sing it since your album “Judith” and in concert 3 times. Your singing touches something deep inside me.

The orchestra is also amazing

What an exquisite performance from Judy. Her voice has certainly not suffered from decades of performing. Beautiful!

The woman on the saxophone was as vital as Judy.

She is a treasure. Pure and simple.

for years I loved the song, but had no idea really what is was about---then one night I studied the song...and wow- it is so complex and sad. Learn the story if you have not.

A wonderful rendition by a beautiful lady.

I used to listen to this with my father when I was 5. That was 45 years ago. He's gone but I still have the memory and the LP vinyl record. It still sounds just as good on my turn table with the diamond studio stylus. When I play it I can return to that moment 45 years ago. Thank you for your timeless gift to all of us.

Each time I hear this, I shed a tear or two. Her voice is so angelic. To know the meaning is even more heart breaking. Love you Judy and thank you for years and years of all your beautiful music.

Makes me cry.every.single.Time. I have to bite My tongue. If You know, You know

Isn’t it rich,isn’t it beautiful With love from a gracefully aging lady full of class and elegance and finesse ❤

My late wife’s favourite! Always found the album Judith on the turntable when I got home. Miss you so much.

The voice of an angel. Stunning

I dont recall which song was playing on one of her albums but I’ll always remember that voice in the background the night I lost my virginity 😊😊😊😊

Paying respects to the brilliant Stephen Sondheim. Thank you for sharing your genius with us. We are the better for it, for you.

Woah! Age has not done a thing to Judy’s voice. I cannot get over her vocal control. ❤

As good as it gets. True, humble professionals. Thank you.

My mother was a professional clown, this was her favorite song. It was played at her funeral.

I'm crying again. Beautiful song, beautiful voice, but my stomach always aches when I hear this. .........💔

Judy Collins your voice is beautiful

Thank you Stephen. Judy you still have it voice in beauty. "Isn't it bliss?"

Masterpice song Judy is now age 85.

STUNNING. Still beautiful.

Perfect marriage of material and performer. A classic for all time.

Judy sounds as beautiful as she is to this day. God bless you Judy Collins. Stay Well!!!

WTH! Judy still sounds and looks amazingly beautiful!

I've got goosebumps. Love her voice.

Year after year, like the moon in the sky, still beautiful.

I've had tickets for a year now to see Judy in Lenox, Mass.(postponed by Covid-19) and pray that it happens in 2021. Please. !! Just got confirmation for August show.

Thanks forever Stephen (rip) and Judy... soundtrack of my childhood... Madison, WI 1976-77

Arguably the most beautiful version of this magnificent Stephen Sondheim song.

Great song and voice. Where are the clowns? Most have resettled in Washington, DC!

I am convinced that she has the most beautiful voice that will ever exist. it never changes with age for the worse like others, but only gets better like the finest whine.

What a mesmerizing performer. She's every bit the Sweet Judy Blue Eyes I've loved these many years.

And I Will see her in Antwerp in November….really Wonderful!

Judy Blue Eyes.....her voice is so beautiful, and pure, after all these years.

Wow still a angelic voice and still a beautiful women at age 80.

Those vocal chords have top quality genetics. Was mighty surprised by how intact her talent is. Rare. ✊

I've always loved Judy for giving us her healing, comforting voice. She is surely gifted.

The woman ages with grace✨

Amazing,stunning vocal performance, one classy lady - beautiful

Takes me back to my child hood, happier times.

Just reminds me how lucky we were, 50 plus years of this quality artiste.

Best female vocalist, to date.

I was so thrilled to see Judy Collins who I had admired for over 40 years, when she appeared on stage in Hobart Tasmania Australia. We were honoured with her presence in a relatively remote part of the world, probably because of her generosity , and we were excited to see her at all , but more so because she sang with solo piano and accompanied herself on guitar most of the time. Not only was her voice as beautiful as ever, but we were subject to a rare , and for us , a remarkably overwhelmingly emotional experience of hearing several on the songs sung “ a capella” , I.e. solo voice. How rare for any singer to perform without accompaniment let alone at her age. We felt very honoured.

Stunningly beautiful in all aspects of her being......her voice, her presence, her appearance all so inspiring!

Wow! I had all her records when i was a college student in the 60s. It’s incredible that she hasn’t lost any of her voice or her beauty after all these years.

Wonderful instrumentation’s with this awesome voice!!! ❤️.

Good music! Send In The Clowns (Live)

I do not know the explaination, but this song remember me when I stayed in Itajubá on 10/26/1979...😢

Still a hauntingly beautiful song and well sung by the lady who made it famous.

The music from my/that era was MUSIC!!!

First time I saw her sing this, I became fixated on her beauty and grace. It was hard to stay dry eyed. The way a person sings a song has a lot to do with its power.

I saw this woman perform live on stage. She brought down the house. Judy Collins is a once in a lifetime true legendary singer and, entertainer.

Official anthem of the U.S. 9th Circuit court !

There's very few singers that as they have aged and literally have gotten better She's one them . Most get worse George Jones got better as he got older but very few a freak thing in music it doesn't happen much !

What a class act. She is breathtakingly beautiful in all ways.

Gate of Horn in Old Chicago was the venue where I celebrated graduation and Judy Colins as the wonderful headliner June 1962.

A beautiful song, sung by a beautiful lady. I closed my eyes and was transported back to when we were all young and Judy sung this song, which touches my heart every time I hear it.

Nothing left to prove Ms Collins! Bask in it as I am.

My Godess this is mum's and mine favourite song of our life. All due respect to life - saving vocal.Wojciech.

My grandfather loved this song.

If this is 2020 ish Nottingham, I was there, man on a piano. And Judy singing, one of the best live performances I’ve been lucky enough to have gone to. Thank you Judy and the guy on the piano xxxxxx❤🎉

One of my favorite songs of all times but only when Judy sings it. No one else comes close, the emotional sadness she conveys is just incredibly beautiful.

Such a magnificently beautiful soul,love her always!!!❤❤❤

I've loved her choice of songs and angelic voice since I first heard her sing this on the radio way back then. I was a teen then, and was surprised her Birthday was the same as mine, May 1. Would dance and exercise to her songs for years back then, then lost touch with her and her songs. Wasn't until I was like 50 that I stumbled upon her again. Still has the voice of an angel, that's for sure.

She's amazing. Bless you Judy and thank you

GRATEFUL, I AM, FOR GOD’S GIFT TO US ALL ! 👍❤️

Sums up my life in just so many words haunting music she looks as good as she did 50 yrs ago a classy lady if ever there was one

When I was young at 17, I usually watched T.V. sesame street shows, and Judy Collins sings Sending the Clowns live! so her beautiful voice always in my mind....

Can't believe her age. over 80. Sounds great.

Love this, but her version of Amazing grace leaves me in bits every time.

She looks so beautiful and sing just as lovely as ever she looks more beautiful now then when she was younger.

so beautiful. thank you, Ms Collins.

I am an old Vietnam vet. I fell in love with her voice sooo long ago. This song, this song oh my can't listen just once .. can't see to type any more
