Barbra also covers Stevie Wonder’s “All In Love is Fair”. Stevie plays harmonica for Barbra on The Broadway Album as well as does a duet of “People” with her on Barbra’s “Partners” album.
With the prominent synthesizer setting a celestial tone, if the first two thirds of this beautiful song feel like floating among the stars, the last third (beginning at 4:52) feels like Barbra has started engaging thrusters. By 5:43 she has reached warp speed, bends the cosmos and is gone, leaving a few seconds of shimmering space dust at the very end. Stunning.
Stevie and Babs are two of my idols, but I personally think her cover of Stevie’s “all is fair in love” dwarfs this one - she does it so flawlessly it’s almost beyond description
I’ve been singing that song for most of my life and I screw it up all the time. Thank you for the correction. I do no better I just reversed those words all the time.
I almost didn’t finish listening when you paused but I gave it a chance. If you had paused again, I wouldn’t have, nor would I have subscribed because even if I like the person, I don’t subscribe to what I call “stoppers.” I was relieved and happy when you let that gorgeous song play. Because you did, I did finish listening and did subscribe. I love your respect for the song by not pausing again. And, I love Barbra’s stunning rendition of it, which came out in 1975. I grew up on her music and after 47 years, this song still thrills me. The whole album does, I played my cassette tape of it till it wouldn’t play anymore. I love that you loved it as much as I do, I loved your reaction to it, it did show that you were captivated. I did not know Stevie wrote this, what a talent!
All in love is fair is one of my favorite Stevie songs and Streisand does an INCREDIBLE version of it! Check it out! That’s a wig? Couldn’t tell looks good 👍🏻
One of my favorite of hers. I find it perfect when you're... intimate with someone. ☺️ You should react to her version of "Mother" next (a John Lennon cover).
Just love your reactions... so organic and real. This is one of my favorite songs of Barbra's and I've heard it 100s of times, but every time is like the first. The way she starts so soft and gentle and then builds into a crescendo of passion, ending with a whisper of delight... very emblematic don't you think 😉. A story that only Barbra could tell so perfectly. Barbra did duet with Stevie many years after this cover of his song, to one of Barbra's signature songs from "Funny Girl," "People" which is a cut from her "Partners" album released in 2014.
Papo, you just reminded me of the 1st time I ever heard this song. Just your facial impression and body language took me back to my teenage years! Babs also captivated me
You are wonderful! It's tough being "that guy"! lol the one that knows the songs, or remembers who was in that movie or on that show! As a fellow weirdo, much love, my friend :-) ❤
Great reaction Video as always! As as suggestion can you do a reaction video about Patti LaBelle: Stir it up (music from the 80s at its best!) Its from the soundtrack from Beverly Hills Cop. Thank you very much in advance and happy pentecost to you and the whole community! Greetings from Germany👍✌️

One of my favorite Streisand covers ever! Gorgeous!
Arguably the greatest Stevie cover ever.
The best. Period.

Thrusters?!?
@@jons.105 What if I had said Stoobulators??
@@BrettTwinSavage I think it's pronounced Stubulator.
@@jons.105 Listen, Mr. Know-It-All from-reading-a-Iot-of-books, I did my time on a couch!
@@BrettTwinSavage Oh, that's an expression you picked up in the theatrical; profession, no doubt.
There are no words. I have always loved this version. It's stellar.
Love this song.. Barbra is so good.. Thanks for your reaction..
Oh those notes she can hit and hold !! The best ever

The title of the song is "All In Love is Fair" despite the first line of the song being "All is fair in love."

In her prime, nobody could touch her. And nobody still can. As time goes on, we realize what a Uniquely monstrous talent she had........
One of my favorite of hers. I find it perfect when you're... intimate with someone. ☺️

Barbra Streisand is simply the best 💖
I got this album when it first came out on vinyl. It's still amazing all these years later. One of my favorites. :)

Thank you so much! I love hearing that about your love for the song. Yea I'm going to have to take a listen to their duet for sure
Just spectacular!
Fantastic!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
From November 1975. Try “A Child Is Born” from the album where it’s her and piano.
Whew it’s amazing! ❤❤❤

So true! Much love to you too!
You should listen to her pop off in Woman in the Moon from A Star is Born.
Great reaction Video as always!

Whitney, Mariah, Celine, cannot do it any better. They just don't have the vocals.
