    No one understands Sondheim like Bernadette. She could pull the emotion out of a phone book if he'd put one to song.

    In my opinion, no one brings emotion like Bernadette Peters. She can stay completely still on a stage and still make you feel like your heart is being ripped out just from the tone in her voice and the look in her eyes.

      True, because I'm crying right along with her, and I've never even experienced the kind of pain about which she's singing.

    Ms.. Peters is so talented that it sometimes seems supernatural. The way she ends this song has always amazed me. She drops her volume to a very low level, with delicate phrasing, yet, she does not lose clarity and each note is brilliantly sustained, and that is so difficult to do, even sitting alone in your room. To be able to do it in a theater filled with thousands of people, including the genius who wrote the song,, and in front of five of the greatest singer/performers Broadway has ever produced is, well, supernatural is the only word that comes to me. Ms. Peters' beautiful eyes were filled with emotion, and Marin Mazzie seemed near tears throughout, for reasons that are now completely understandable. What an enormous loss her death was to the theater. I am glad that we have so many of her wonderful performances, like this one, that we can visit and enjoy, and that we can use to introduce her great talent to new generations. The entire salute was terrific, and these six gifted ladies were the best of the best! Rest in peace, Mr. Sondheim, Ms. Mazzie and Ms. Stritch ...

    Bernadette sings as if she is crying.....and to me, I think the look on Patti's face was respect. Bernadette might be singing this song over and over again but I think she did it in remembrance of her husband....even though it broke her heart every time she sings this. Marin Mazzie looks close to crying herself in 3.21

      @trf12567 Two men telling a dirty joke isn't sexual harassment unless directed at someone, but 99% of the time it's fucking disrespectful and degrading. Comedians still perform, they're getting Netflix specials left and right, tours around the world, roles in film & tv. There's no issue of comedy content, but some comedians unprofessionally bring it out to contexts in which that content becomes inappropriate and often uncalled for. You don't bring your work or talk about it outside of work spaces, it makes everyone uncomfortable or confused, especially those who don't understand it.

Btw, FB is an USA invention, most people outside of western cultures don't use FB e.g. Korea uses Kakao Talk, China uses WeChat. Americans make a big fucking deal about every word uttered from some politician or big business figure, thinking they run the world. In reality, the rest of the world take a peek at your narcissistic obnoxious chaos and walk off to something of more quality than quantity.

    As the days go by
    I keep thinking when does it end
    Where's the day I'll have started forgetting
    But I just go on thinking and sweating
    And cursing and crying
    And turning and reaching
    And waking and dying
    And no, not a day goes by
    Not a blessed day
    But you're still somehow part of my life
    And you won't go away
    So there's hell to pay
    And until I die
    I'll die
    Day after day
    After day after day
    After day after day after day
    So there's hell to pay
    And until I die

    Gets me every damn time😫😫😫🤧.... I can't stop crying because this is simply the best woman to sing this. She emotes and digs so deep and connects so well. Bernadette Peters the living legend💓💓

    Bernadette will always be the greatest interpreter of Stephen Sondheim's music and lyrics; she is absolute perfection! 😍If you enjoy this video, I highly recommend the video of her singing "Johanna" from Sweeney Todd, too. She sings it beautifully and brilliantly!

    In 1970, I fell head over heels in love with someone who couldn't feel the same way I did. The heartbreak was crushing. Even today I still wonder how and where he is.

    Bernadette. You may not even read this. But I would like to tell you that even though bad things do happen to good people that you are not forgotten. Even if you haven’t realized it, God has sustained you through all of this and will continue. Please know that you are loved so much by our savior Jesus Christ. Thank you so much for digging deep and allowing your life experience to be shown in such a way as to help others who have walked a similar road. I pray your healing will continue and your burden will be lightened. James

    She is a superb actor who happens (amazingly) to be blessed with a monument of a singing voice. The double barrel.
    Her vocal technique is astonishing and underrated at large (not by the community that gets it so to say). And, at base, to act - portray character - is unique. No wonder Sondheim gravitated to Peters.

    The incredible strength it must take to sing this time after time. Knowing she sings it for her husband that died makes it that much more of a gift.

    In 1982 I saw Christine Ebersole sing what I believed was the Definitive version of this song. I was 26 - shecwas a tad younger.
    Then Bernadette did this.
    I was closing in on 60 - and.....THIS is the song. THIS.
    God love and bless you Bernadette
