@@user-xe5cz3dw8m I hear you, at least we are so lucky that it was all captured on film! And I was there for her closing night at Staples as well as January 1st an MGM. I was suppose to attend weeks earlier but she got Laryngitis; so I was bumped to the last night which turned out to be the night HBO filmed her special! And after the show ended, she had to re- film 5 songs for some reason, so she comes out after we thought it was over and said "I know u must be tired, but I have to re-film 5 songs so if any of you could stay" and before she could finish that sentence the crowd burst in to the loudest cheers - we just lost our collective minds!!. She goes off for about 20 minutes and Marvin Hamlisch, her conductor, comes out and entertains the crowd playing Happy Birthday on the piano the way each of the great composers would have played it - Beethoven, Chopin, Mozart etc. I got to hear her sing Somewhere twice! The sad thing is actually the first time she sang it in the real concert was better, she was a bit stronger at the end and held the last note longer.....but the one in the HBO film is the 2nd take. Anyway, it was a time and a night I'll always remember. I almost didn't get to go, only a miracle happened and I did finally get a ticket, but that is too long of a story. I paid 1,007.00 for that 1 seat, and it was worth every penny! BEST - enjoy the HBO special! have a beautiful life!
@@jamesk8s1 WOW! Thank you so much for taking the time to share that incredible experience. Barbara coming back on stage and beginning with, "I know you are tired but if you could stay" sounds exactly like her. She is so unassuming and kind. I am so glad you got your money's worth and them some for that evening. As Linda Richmond said, "You paid a beautiful dollar!" Have a lovely life, friend!
I was too! Do you remember all the stars that were there? Michael Jackson, Kathy lee and Frank Gifford, Daryl Hannah was with JFK jr and then Gregory Peck walked in!
@@rickipeltzman9795 hi, such good fortune we had! Glad u got 2 c it too!!! Yes, yes, I do remember the spot light on each one of them and them being announced as they arrived. It was like Royalty coming to see the Queen. Now, my biggest dream is to see Dimash live. If u don't know him, I would suggest starting with his song SOS from the 2017 I AM SINGER vocal competition which launched him into international super stardom - just an other worldly voice!
When I lived in Skokie, IL, there was a restaurant called Barnum and Bagel and the women looked like Linda, big hair but ridiculously sequined jogging outfits on 80 year-olds who actually sat around tables discussing Barbra Streisand. Kinda like The Nanny. So funny.
I'd forgotten how funny this is. Here are some translations (Yiddish is very funny, but hard to translate): Linda - look at that punim (look at that gorgeous face); Linda - I'm farklempt (choked up); Barbra - I've got schpilkis in my genecktigesoint (butterflies in my guts); Linda - that author is a miskeit/able boodled in the keppe (she is ugly and crazy in the head); Linda - it's a shanda for the neighbors (a disgrace); Linda - it stuck in my gedarim like last year's gedempt (stuck in my guts like a bad storm); Linda - das de ligene zibele (roughly means stick your head in the dirt like an onion); Barbra - geh schtugidaf (go stick it); Linda - geh cocken auf in yom (go shit in the ocean); Barbra - nebbich (poor thing); Linda - feh, poo poo poo (gross, don't give me the evil eye); Barbra - farmished (mixed up); Linda - farcocked (fucked up); Barbra - fartootsed (confused); Linda - farschtunken (smelly); Barbra - fartig (end of this discussion). Hope this helps!
@@MellowWind my parents who both spoke Yiddish to each other when they didn't want me to know what they were talking about, both passed away 30 years ago. I never had an interest in learning Yiddish as a kid, and now I regret it. It was right there, in my own house! They'd go "schvog" (shut up) the KLEINAH is due." ( The child is here.)
When A Star Is Born came out in 76 i eas absolutely dead in love with the hair i was the first chick in my highschool to get a oerm like hers. I love her
Amazing. I am reading her autobiography right now. This is mentioned (and the walk-on on SNL and in another chapter the diss on the NY Times op-ed), so I had to come look up the video.
Most New York Jews speak Yiddish. Mainly because we're primarily Ashkenazim. OMG, Linda Richmond was my FAVORITE Mike Meyers character and Coffee Talk was my FAVORITE skit on SNL.
Guys heeelppp.. what is d reference on this?! 2:55 i know they seem to be sarcastic on something but not sure where 8s from..am smiling frm start to finish..😊
All the parts where they appear to be looking at the audience or at each other, they’re reading their scripts. Especially before Michael goes onto the stage, and it appears they’re directing their dialogue at each other, but there’s clearly a prompter. Barbra had an ironic line, “I’m surprised you remembered all your lines” as PART of the script…

I’ve been verklempt for Barbra since I saw “A Star is Born”. She completely blew me away!
I was there 29 years ago!!!!! 🤩Amazing!
I am jealous!

I had forgotten what a great actress Barbra Streisand is!
OMG Linda Richman and Barbara Streisand on stage together. I am so verklempt, I can die now.
I love so much how she incorporated that into her concert. That alone would be worth the cost of the ticket!♥♥
Talk amongst yourselves.......I'll give you a topic....Barbara and Linda Richman are both Shaina Punim Shaina Madelach! DISCUSS! 😄
Lol 😅❤ she has the Best voice in the world 😊😊
Wow this skit was supberbbbb. The comedic timing the entire time was *chefs kiss*
Loved it, loved everything about it! Linda Richman and Bahh-bra together I love it ❤️!
I was verklempt from the first moment. But, it was like butuh
HaHa!
Michael Myers is wonderful as Ms. Richman.
Really talented.
There really are women like this character here in New York.
Linda was his mother in law, she was also an agent in Hollywood.
Mike Meyers speaks Yiddish better than Jews.😮

@@JeffBazell 😆😊😁👍
Linda Richmond is based on his former mother-in-law.
Michael Myers is hysterical as Linda Richman. Together with Barbra is a total laugh riot!
This has made my YEAR! 😍
This segment was hilarious!
Love Barbara as a " Funny Girl"!!great comic timing!

I think Yiddish needs to be taught in public schools. What a great language.
VERY nicely done! Proud of you! - a Yid in Philadelphia
❤️👍

Hate to tell you but genicktegezoint is a made up word-not Yiddish!! But funny!
@@ruthiscurlyHow do you say “pedantic” in Yiddish?
LOL this was both a delicious comedic moment and a Yiddish lesson.
Loved the Yiddish!
She talked about this in her book. I love both of them!
I SO Love this! Myers is a genius and Barbra is fabulous with him. I'm still laughing.
Peak performance.
This was epic.
Amazing interaction of tho amazing performers ❤
Wow! This is so good. ❤
So much fun, thank you for sharing this!
I love Barbra Streisand and Linda Richmond
One of the greatest and most talented humans EVER to have walked this earth and....
Barbara Streisand.
this was so satisfying after Barbra shortly appearing in the skit with Madonna and Linda on SNL..
OMG, what a wonderful surreal moment! Of course I'm verklempt!
When A Star Is Born came out in 76 i eas absolutely dead in love with the hair i was the first chick in my highschool to get a oerm like hers. I love her
Linda Richman should have a talk show, sitcom....
Wow - I just noticed Nick Ashford & Valerie Simpson in the background @1:24 - Ashford & Simpson!!
That's brilliant!
My favorite video on RUclips!!!
Feeling nostalgic! ❤️
Barbra eres única té amó no tendremos otra cómo tú
This is so brilliant
God I miss HIM!
This is like butter.
So funny! I love this skit...xoxo
How fun!!
Amazing. I am reading her autobiography right now. This is mentioned (and the walk-on on SNL and in another chapter the diss on the NY Times op-ed), so I had to come look up the video.
Loved 😍
This really made me verlempt!
A lot of seniors in the audience that probably have no clue who this character is.
iirc, the "real" Linda Richman was also in attendance. i wonder how she was reacting lol
Oh my gosh he's brilliant: 'Kathie Lee, eat your heart out'
Should have lots more views
How many people got shpilkes in their genechtagazoink watching this like I did? This is brilliant ❤
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️❤️
Linda Richmond is based on Mike Myers’ mother-in-law.
Former mother-in-law. They divorced. He’s now married to a different woman.
Lighten up Francis
Random... but I'm pretty sure that's Ashford & Simpson in the background at 1:13
Is Paul still recovering? Was she sitting in the audience the whole time? I love this, thank you!
This is hilarious haha
BARBARA IS THE BEST!
I didn’t realise Barbra spoke Yiddish
Not sure she speaks but for sure knows words. She is jewish and from brooklyn
Yes, and this is really going to blow your mind ... she's been known to sing too.
@@snarkyenigma9219 like n the movie Yentl.
@@stumack9755 Yental? 🤣 You mean like . a scolding nagging bad-tempered Yiddish woman?
Most New York Jews speak Yiddish. Mainly because we're primarily Ashkenazim. OMG, Linda Richmond was my FAVORITE Mike Meyers character and Coffee Talk was my FAVORITE skit on SNL.
Of course Barbra speaks yiddish. How young are you?
Young enough that she thinks the "Meet the Fockers lady" is singing Lea Michelle's songs.
@@snarkyenigma9219 LOL. Great comment!
@@cathynewyork7918 Someone actually wrote that here on RUclips. I think it was Lea Michelle butchering _Don't Rain on My Parade_ .
Guys heeelppp.. what is d reference on this?! 2:55 i know they seem to be sarcastic on something but not sure where 8s from..am smiling frm start to finish..😊
BARBRA STREISAND IS SO TALENTED AND SO CLASSY. SHE DOESN'T DRESS LIKE A TEENAGER LIKE CHER MADONNA AND DOLLY ETC
This is hilarious. Can someone explain the Kathy Lee reference?
Kathy Lee was doing her show and she talked about Barbra Streisand all the time. I was there and it was really something!
@@rickipeltzman9795 LOL!! Thank you!
LIKE BUTUH!!!
Very funny 😂
Secretary of the Interiors. Lol.
Mike Myers was great…….
His only really great role.
@@nonenoneonenonenone Not fair. Mike Meyers has done a lot of good comedy work.
You should be the Secretary of the Interiors....😅😅
❤
I got a little toots up for you. 😂
It just like butter lol
Linda and Babs on one stage? No big whoop!
Is that Yiddish?
It’s really more New York Yiddish than Eastern European Yiddish, but it’s close enough! I provided a translation above.
This was so spontaneous and unscripted that I think Barbra was genuinely surprised.
it was so scripted that it was cringe how bad of an actress Barbara was.
All the parts where they appear to be looking at the audience or at each other, they’re reading their scripts. Especially before Michael goes onto the stage, and it appears they’re directing their dialogue at each other, but there’s clearly a prompter.

Haha! Yay
my zorch is on fire!
Kevin Lee eat your heart out LOL
You and I wore Donna Karen ...is that me..oh no
Bigger hair and Linda Richman would be a dead ringer for my Aunt Ida from Brooklyn.
a massive hoot LOLOLOL
Oy my child self is verklempt
Lol! ☠️
BARBARA DURANTE
Like BUTTAH
Hahahahahahaha
Sing. Don't talk.
Butuh??But uh??? What???
Linda is a take off of Myers mother in law
Barbra eres única té amó no tendremos otra cómo tú
