- Barbra ended her show with "People" but it couldn't be televised because they reached the time limit of the special. Here's a RARE audio recording of that performance:
• Barbra Streisand - PEO...
The show was aired on March 9, 1975 and it was one of the rare Streisand live moments in the 1970s. It is interesting to note that the event was on benefit of the Special Olympics, but it also worked as promotion for the sequel to Funny Lady. She was awesome that night, performing songs from both Funny Girl and Funny Lady as well as The Way We Were -all Ray Stark productions. James Caan joined her for "It's Only a Paper Moon/I Like Him". Muhammad Ali makes an appearance at the end of the special to present a special medal for Barbra. The audio/video quality of this video is a bit better than most versions available on RUclips. Hope you enjoy it!

Only one woman held a note that nobody else could achieve .. very impressive . Well done lady of a style that was unique - a gift from God .
I have loved her for over 50 years. She is incredibly gifted, but it was her hard work and hunger for a better life that propelled her to her rightful place in entertainment history. Her memoir is fantastic. There will never be another Barbra Joan Streisand.
My mother-my only caregiver -who tortured me until her death a few years ago couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket-I’m a fairly good singer-she did one thing good,
she had wonderful taste in music, listened to Barbra Streisand from the day I was born.
I can sing her songs from memory and she put out a lot of albums
I bought into her diva complex created by the media
Just got done listening to her 40-hour audiobook (I drive 3 hours a day to teach yoga, so, I have a lot of wonderful audiobooks). My idea of her has done a complete 180.
The way she speaks here is the way she does on the audiobook, so gently that I listen to it as I’m going to sleep; she has a photographic memory,
is completely detail-oriented,
it’s a Masterclass in directing, singing, producing, writing, building and decorating homes, dealing with actors some of who were not easy, some hateful,
dating many extraordinary men, being very politically involved and friends with many politicians,
all with grace, class, kindness, vulnerability, and introspection and ALL AT ONCE (she is admittedly restless).
What would make her near to perfect is if she is ethical vegan and made this connection (she writes endlessly about her love of meat and dairy) between her love of her dog and other animals. She’s an environmentalist
and the only way all the pollution and destruction of the earth will end is if everyone becomes vegan and the hunting, fishing,
animal agriculture ends.
She’s a devoted mother and friend, too. She doesn’t compete with other women, she admires beautiful, talented
women because she knows her own worth.
There is no one like her.
When she’s gone, well, hopefully I’ll be gone before her.
💚🌱
No botox, no fillers, no plastic surgery and just absolutely STUNNING. Don't get me started on her voice! I just found out that she's never had voice lessons. A voice as smooth as the softest silk.
No female , ON THIS PLANET, DEAD OR ALIVE, can touch her LIVE, RAW VOCALS
The greatest female vocalist of the 20th Century. There is only one Barbra Streisand. ❤
This woman had stage fright??? She's SPECTACULAR AND GORGEOUS!!!
SILK - her voice is like silk, strong, soft and flexible enough for her to mold it around every note as clear as a bell and as soothing as glass. Beautiful, just beautiful!!
I was never lucky enough to be able to afford tickets to see her….and when I finally could, she’d stopped. When she was touring last in 2006 near me, we tried to get tickets but they were $600 each (and up) and sold out almost overnight. I had to be satisfied with buying her albums & CDs, watching as many of her performances on TV (including her last tour) as possible and owning & watching endlessly ALL of her movie - which I adore and watch over & over.
She is, was and will ALWAYS be my favorite singer of all time!! It makes me happy seeing anything she does.
I love Celine & Adele too because they both have a little bit of Barbara to them but NO ONE can ever take Barbara’s place in my heart……her music is the soundtrack of my life. The songs that mean the most to me are her songs!!!
I wish her good health and blessings. I hope she is living her best life and I hope she feels how much we miss her and how much she is appreciated & loved!!
Did u read her autobiography
Também amo a Barbra desde minha infância. Sua voz me transporta para dentro de mim mesma a um lugar de emoção ,onde não posso controlar as lágrimas que sempre vem quando ouço sua voz. É algo que não posso explicar. Sou do Brasil.
I have never heard such an effortless and well-controlled voice in non-operatic music in my life 😲
Audience comprised mostly of people from the greatest generation and some early boomers and their manners are on full display unlike what we would see today.
She’s a very soulful singer. I loved reading her autobiography, her approach to her work was enlightening. She’s a true artist.
My sister said she's so beautiful, yep, the most beautiful woman in the world imo. And she sings like an angel
She’s so insanely gorgeous, and her voice literally gave me chills in this performance
The absolute peak of her career. Never more beautiful - gorgeous - and her voice is pure magic!!❤❤❤❤
The most unconventionally beautiful woman in Hollywood history
I absolutely agree!
Her voice was in the sweet spot of it's maturity; its peak. Her delivery so effortless and relaxed. Her tanned skin and bleached locks....gorgeous!!! I too wish she had gifted us with many more live performances throughout these golden years of her career. Thanks for posting.
Yes ,but she has preserved her voice far longer than many others female singers and made a lot more records every decade, so...
@@christophepena2212 Her voice has aged badly. What she does retain, always will, is the ability to do exquisite things with the instrument she does still have.
Shame she was so shy...
I couldn't agree more. I remember watching this as a kid but I don't remember the goose bumps! Just, wow!
You are not alone. Many feel this was her best point vocally for her. But we still got to enjoy the later Barbras live.
Like Neil Diamond, Celine Dion, Adele, Edith Piaf, Sarah Vaughn, Julie Andrews, Whitney Houston, Nat King Cole & many other countless wonderful singers, Barbara Streisand is a superb singer, actress, director, writer &😂 humanitarian. Her beautiful, unique voice & many talents have touched our hearts/lives. This multi-talented star will always remain a guiding light in our lives. ❤❤❤❤
What a super nova... We'll never see the likes of her ever again.
Barbra is now 81 and James passed away last year. That’s why I absolutely love RUclips. If we relied on traditional broadcasters we couldn’t revel in their artistic genius on occasions like this, we’d be stuck with the depression of rap and comic book movies. In this performance Barbra is actually even better than she is in the movies she’s singing from.
YOU ARE REALLY ILL-INFORMED. GET A CLUE BEFORE YOU START POSTING MISINFORMATION LIKE ALL THE MAGA TRUMPERS. J. BROLIN IS VERY MUCH ALIVE AT 83. Wake up!!
Mohammed Ali not with us. Marvin Hamlish neither. Nor Brando. Caan never got Oscar. Funny Grandma never happened.
James Brolin still alive as of 2024
This highlights how sad it is that she didn't do many concerts (other than this and charitable stuff) in the 70s. For me, her voice in this decade was simply the best.
This is Barbra at her best. A true Goddess.
I’ve loved her singing since I was 9 years old in 1962. One of the best singers ever! And she’s a very talented actress and writer/producer, also. A superbly talented person!
Her shyness was not a burden. She became that artisan
.. the actress, director, producer, writer, complete exemplary human.
The fact that she has the most natural untrained voice of all time is secondary 😂, plus her compositional and orchestral skills are unparalleled.
I wish Amy had of lived longer to step Into some of that, and been clean.
Jewish musical goddesses - Toda!
A consummate performer. Director, actress, amazing voice. Accomplished professional. Personal, real, honest, beautiful, smart, full of love.
She is at the apex of her talent and beauty here
Barbra is a treasure ♥
Wow she is gorgeous, and talent no one will probably ever match.
May be her best live vocals ever! A shame she didn’t sing live more during those years.
Yeah I agree this is her peak. And she's so stunning! ❤️
@@barbraevergreen You should've seen her in person from three inches away. Absolutely gorgeous.
@@JeffBazell I'm so jealous of you oooh .... Where did you see her?
I remember her talking about her fear of live performances and insecurities. It’s a shame, she has an amazing talent.
She sang live according to her book.
I do not remember seeing her with long blond hair before. She is stunning; and the voice….gosh to be able to naturally and effortlessly produce that sound, amazing!
Ależ, Ty moja kochana, Basiu!!! Poszedłem do pierwszej klasy, tyle lat minęło, a my tacy sami! ❤❤❤
On the night that this aired (LIVE) on 3/9/75, we had a major snow storm here in the Midwest. Just as Barbra walked out and began humming the intro here, we lost all the power. Of course there were no VCRs or DVDs, and they never re-aired the special ... so it was not until over 30 yrs. later, that many of us ever got to see this (thanks to RUclips). It has been removed many times, but apparently Camp Barbra eventually gave up and decides to let the world enjoy it.
That's why she is the best female vocalist ever!! A lesson for all the other singers.
Best video quality I've seen. Maybe someday it'll be on DVD. PS: I see myself clapping one row in front of Jon Peters. After the concert, he moved up one row and Barbra sat just to my left and Jon to her left. Very exciting! Literally rubbing elbows and sharing the armrest with B.!!!
Amazing!!!
Oh my ... That's fantastic! Do you remember how she smelled? She looks unreal in this video oh my.. You must be her age right? I'm 29 and I'm obsessed with Barbra.
What was that like? A dream? Please tell us about it more.
@@barbraevergreen She's 13 years older than I.
@@JeffBazell How I wish I was there too! She is extra gorgeous in this era.
GODS' GIFT TO US ALL.!!! NO PNE IN THE WORLD CAN EVER COME CLOSE. HER PITCH IS PERFECT.HER NOTES ARE SWEET, EFFORTLESSLY, AND EVER SO CALMING. SHE CAN ALSO BE EVER SO STRONG IN VOICE. I SIMPLY LOVE THIS LADY, KNOWN AS " BARBARA ", AND NO LAST NAME IS NEEDED!!! MUCH LOVE, AND BLESSINGS TO YOU. FROM A FOREVER FAN
Forever Fan her name is spelled Barbra
@@sharonlabrecque1655 NO MATTER HOW YOU SPELL IT, ONLY ONE NAME IS NEEDED. HER GIFT TO US IS REMARKABLE AND VOICED ALL OVER THE WORLD.
@@sharonlabrecque1655 IT REALLY MAKES NO DIFFERENCE HOW YOU SPELL IT! SHE ONLY NEEDS ONE NAME. SHE HAS GIFTED THIS WORLD WITH THAT OF VOICE . SEÑORA STREISAND ES UN BENDICIONES PARA TODOS.
Best version of The way we were,
Best version of People,
Best version of My man,
Best version of How lucky can you get,
Best version of Dont rain on my Parade.
Best version Concert i have ever heard from her.
Hope someday will be included People version who is missing here.
And Hope someday will be produce it in High Quality Remastered for some Bluray
Can't agree more. Exceptional and unique performance. Sadly, she rarely did live shows during the '70s.
"People"is missing in this video.
Is hard to find in video from this promotional special of Funny Girl to Funny Lady.
Hope someday Barbra would make a LP or CD from this recording
@@magicchandelier Oh, so, then, People was indeed in the original broadcast? I found it interesting that TWWW was in it but not People, but I hope she actually did sing it that night - kinda would be a huge miss if she hadn't.
Thank you Gustavo . . . wow, wow, wow . . .This is Barbra at her absolute vocal peak. She looks
stunning. I love this 1970's California look! Barbra sporting her long blonde hair and Malibu
Barbie tan. Watch closely and you get a glimpse of her groovy platform shoes. I'm a bit
surprised this video from the 1975 TV special "Funny Girl to Funny Lady" has not been shown
more by other parties, or by fans, or even by Barbra herself. She has put together many video
montages for many of her past concerts, but she has never included a snippet from this from what
I remember. It is such a pleasure to watch this mini concert. Again, thank you for sharing this
clip from the past, as well as, for all the many other rare and unreleased gems you've shared on
your channel. Be well my friend, Louis Nelson, Los Angeles CA.
Simply sublime
I did not appreciate how extraordinary this was when I saw it on TV originally. Her voice, appearance, and stage presence---WOW!
Barbra Striesand is the best singer I have ever heard. That voice is a gift from God!
What a privilege be at that audience. ❤ Her voice is flawless at 35. She seems to be very comfortable at the stage.
33.
On GREAT form.......her voice was at a new peak at this time....
So utterly beautiful…breathtaking really.
Amazing! Love you Barbra! !❤
A better quality version of this magnificent show! GRACIAS!
This gotta be the first time ever she sang The Way We Were live.
This was a special treat to find on RUclips ❤ Barbra is so beautiful. Her voice is just extraordinary. I loved seeing James Caan and Muhammad Ali as well. I've always enjoyed listening to Muhammad speak, soothing tone.Thank you for posting this. 🎉👏🏾🌟
Thank you so much ! Barbra was STUNNING at this TV special ! Best version of "My Man"
She was at one of her best moments ever at every level, looks gorgeous with the califormia girl look the tan the color of the hair her voice at the best point, what make so secure and confident to sing effortles, the audio was veeeryy good the equalization, the orchestra was fantastic, for me the best she had ever had in most of her concerts. Everything converted to make this one of if not the best of her specials, too much 👏👏👏👏!!! And it is soo lovely to see how people admire her love her and respect her since then that as soonvas she aapears they get on their feet 🤗🤗
Singing live with such extraordinary and beautiful voice! THAT is a legendary and amazing singer! Barbra forever❤
Barbra is simply brilliant!
The way she lovingly kisses and touches these two kids is just so heartwarming!
Magnificent - incredible - beyond compare. There’ll never be another!!
Barbra is just wonderful!
Thank you so much for allowing us to see this show. Very good singers with a touch of humor. Very pleasant !
This is a much better quality. Thank you Gustavo!
Gorgeous Video ,! Thanks. Tomorrow She turns 80! Can u believe it ? Congrats 🎊 Bab
All her live performances have seemed flawless, but this one, to me, is when the best vocality meets the lushest musicality.
Many, many thanks for the wonderful post.
WOW, I’ve always loved Barbara Streisand ❤️ I have never seen this and so happy I stumbled across this. First of all she’s gorgeous, so sexy and her voice gave me chills, like always. What a voice and such an amazing talented lady!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️♥️♥️❤️
What a most touching conclusion to the performance section! Very beautiful and moving.
I’ve never seen this, fabulous! Love her long hair! Crisp, clean vocals! Only one super butter! Best singer in the world!!!
How have I never seen this? I love this.
Wowwwwww. What a pleasant and beautiful surprise. Thank you very much for publishing this concert of our dear and beloved Barbra.
15:13-15:17 The ring and projection her mid-chest belts carried around this era (‘68-75) was sublime. I mean wow…you can hear the voice lingering throughout the entire hall.
Thank you very much ❤
The Streisand sound...otherworldly, a complete one-off!
SIEMPRE MARAVILLOSA
There are so many shots from her left side in this! So rare to see her photographed from that angle.
I was just thinking what U said as I watched this and I really liked how she looked from the other side...but I guess she just didn't see it.
Effortless. And magnificent.
Vau❤!! What a perfect voice she had. Unique. Iconic. ❤love from Finland❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Her voice hasn't changed since her first recording at 12 yes old perfecton❤
Gustavo you are amazing! Thanks for sharing this.
It's her personality as well, she is incredibly funny, zany, mischievous, there's only one babra
1:33am Wonderful talent Beautiful woman, stunning actress, outstanding director. Love her. There will never be another like her. ❤❤❤❤
❤😊her voice is a instrument as perfect as a violin
A magnificent musical instrument and great humanitarian.
Who wouldnt love to fall in love with her!
To think she didn’t see her self as a singer per reading her book. She wanted to be a movie star which she is as well. The greatest but her voice tremendous!
Piękna muzyka, piękny głos.🌹❤
La más talentosa artista que ha dado ese país. Sin dudas Strainsand es una gran diva no del sistema de estrellas sino de su talento en su voz, y su linda estética del canto, su glamour discreto y su belleza femenina. Un abrazo desde Cuba, se te quiere y admira.
OMG, thank you for sharing this video an HD one! I adore Barbra Streisand!
This people are sooo well prepared they can do anything sing dance act whatever and pretty well!! They take their carrers seriously they study they have respect for what they do. We should learn in latin america, so that coming out of a beauty contest is not everything have to work hard and do your homework.. And Barbra that black dress WOW!!🤩🤩
That was her peak. Fantastik. It's funny : audiences in those days, they always were so old and stuffy. When you see old tv shows and they show the audience, they were always old. Or in old movies, when there is a party scene, the people are always sooooo old, like in their sixties.
They had the money to afford her tickets.
YES! MOST WERE WHITE RACIST JERKS TOO! LOOKING AT THIS AUDIENCE IT LOOKS REPUBLICAN! JUST NASTY & UNATTRACTIVE
I don’t really care for this song but her voice is so mesmerizing that I listen and like it. Mmm.
She came from the other planet...No one to similar. Unique
Wow ty so much for posting such a better quality version
THIS SING BRINGS TEARS TO EVERY TIME. SO BEAUTIFUL …
soaring voice during those years ! !
Excellent, brilliant.
No one can sing Rain on my Parade better.
34yrs old here
Величайшая певица всех времен и народов!!!!!Обожаю....
I have loved worshiped and adored her my whole life ❤
Rip James caan
I got to see Barbra in Philly in 2016, I think it was. I feel so lucky! She's just so incredibly amazing. Truly, one of a kind superstar voice!
She was with us in Philly in 14 and 18.
Glorious!
I saw her perform inpwrson twice. Once at The Blue Angel on a stormy minight show with 18 people in the audience. And then in Central Park with 175 thousand people.
Den Film hab ich gesehen 👏🙏in Deutschland und fand genial 🙏👏
Barbara is very special....All Time Great......
Like Antonio Bandeiras spoke she have a Velvet voice. To me the most beautiful in the world. I would like to die listening her singing. I would be in heaven. Waw she is the best for me. ❤
She is the greatest star ❤❤
Colek @sastaviyana
Yes!!!!❤
ArgentinabTe Ama ALELUYA PAZ
The very best of all time❤❤❤ we are blessed to have her films and songs…❤❤❤
Amazing
Her voice was at 100%
