Barbra and Kermit together...if that doesn't bring tears to your eyes I don't know what will.
Over 50 years I've been OBSESSED. Started at 7 years old listening to a star is born. Ill be there to say goodbye to Barbra when she leaves us to thank her for letting me hear the most beautiful voice ever given to a human being. Shes a true gift from God.
Your comment is morbid. You may go before her. Every thought you have doesn't need to be verbalize.
@@edglebennett6312 Yes. I'm 18 months younger than Barbra. We could live for another 20 years!
@@patricialavender2902 Let's not do sarcasm! Okay? Okay.
@@edglebennett6312 I was not being sarcastic. I'm stating a fact. I''m 77 yrs. and could, with good health, and a lot of luck, live another 20 years or more! Likewise dear Barbra could live for many years yet.
@@patricialavender2902 I really hope we can, wouldn't that be great? 💕🙏
She did this as if she were a young girl. Clever acting. She really pulls it off.
In 1979 I was in a furniture gallery on second avenue, "Joia", and she was there with her sister.
I didn't notice her until she spoke. I almost keeled over.
Wow lucky and you
Nobody sings like Barbra! Best voice ever!!!!!
When she changes the tune at 2:34, we remember another reason we love her: she's the doyenne of reinventing songs and making them sound even better.
No mo q.
She makes the songs she sings her own because she doesn’t read music.
@donzteri
A lot of people don't know how to read music and they still can't adapt a song the way that she does, though. She's unique and wonderful.
This makes me SOOOOO happy! Kermit & Barbra TOGETHER?!?!? Yaaaaasss!!!
Lovers, dreamers and me! Yes! ❤️🙂❤️✨🌟✨⭐️✨
Happy PRIDE!
When I am down or sad, this song always lifts me up again and gives me hope to continue my life!
@Barbra Streisand Since the movie What's Up Doc?
Barbra’s 70s voice is my favorite.
me too , the best ever is the 70s , her 70s albums just gems
And most beautiful photos too, pre-curly cut early 1976.
Me too. Seventies and eighties. I haven't been so much into her beyond that, for the most part.
Barbra Joan is my fav album. Also the first of hers I heard and bought. Stunning covers which are hardwired into my musical brain.
Her 60s, 80s, and 90s voices were all still phenomenal.
The fact that this masterpiece existed unheard during my childhood makes me both weep and celebrate.
Good for you. I was seven years old and it was the first album I owned. I played this song to death and it still resonates today. It has a beauty that is unique to its own. I can't think of a song that is reminiscent of this in any way. I was taunted by my peers when I took it to school - 'oh a kids record'. Well, thousands including you knew it was a brilliant song from the day we heard it as youngsters.
@triplejazzmusicisall1883
You mean you had the Kermit version, without Barbra?
@@alexisgs8800
😂😂😂
Her upper register was so pure and clear at the time she recorded this. When I first heard that she was singing a duet with Kermit the Frog on her Release 2 album, I dreaded the thought, but this is magical.
So unbelievably pretty! Love this so much. Barbra Streisand always brings extra and unexpected feelings to songs....
Ecstatic this song is.
I was very apprehensive about this selection as well and after hearing it then it became my favorite on the CD. I nearly have an out of body experience everytime I hear it.
Why would ANYONE dread someone duetting with Kermit the Frog? He’s such a loveable frog.
She held that last note a very long time. 🎶
Beautiful breath control....
Notice Streisand's trademark nuances. She sings to fit the song. Some of her best singing is her quietest. Superb modulation and control, heartfelt.
JUST INTOXICATING!
I've listened to this about 30 times now. Absolute magic.
Happy Pride! I'm in frogging tears. Listened to this 15 times now.
Yeah -- me too -- I'm going my second time and I think I'll drive my wife crazy (lol) --
@@herasmarket It must be 75 listens at this point. My hubby lost it because I won't stop. Hahaha
Over a hundred times now. Jesus... I need to take a chill pill. "Be Aware" will be about 3K views! lol
No. I'm glad back when this song was popular, the current meaning of rainbows did not exist. It should stay this way.
Barbra in 70's = magic
Barbra as a 10 year old. This is just about perfect. She had the good judgment to never leave the young girl persona, though she almost did once. His voice is perfect too. Very touching.
Wonderful Barbra, wonderful voice and wonderful woman !! 💓💖🙏❤🎶🎤🎶❤👌😌🤗 😍🤩👏👏👏👏 Thank you so much, "Barbra". 💕🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😊🌹❤💋 Thank you so much, Kermi The Frog, too. 😉🤩❤
Barbra in 70's! Magical!
When she was her best she was the very best. This is magical.
ABSOLUTELY 👌🏾💯💯💯💯💯
She is STILL the very best!!
This is one of my favorite Barbra duets for Barbra for a long time. She sings so simply and pure, as though she is singing to a group of children. She doesn’t over sing Kermit. It is spectacularly done. Simple. Sweet. Kind. Well done. I was two when this was recorded. Could they have been singing to me? I like to think so.
So cute. I fell in love with her when I was seven.
@@stevenfay3810 how could you not fall in love with someone so magical?
Kevin, your comments are almost a lovely as the song.
@@markmasi5219 well, almost as colorful, Mark.
Yes, it is magical and childlike simply because she doesn't over-sing Kermit. Thank you for that observation.
Like she’s singing to children. The ultimate interpreter of lyrics. That voice.
This song is always heartwarming, but with Barbra it's special 😇🙏💕
I don't know why, but this song makes me cry everytime I hear it ! It touches the little boy that still lives inside me !
Same here!
This is whimsical and sweet.
Very well put David
Thank you kind sir.
Worked in a jazz club in Chicago (when such things existed) and one night the pianist headliner asked for requests. A lady asked for this. I smirked a bit figuring she was in the cups. Not only did he know it and swing it, he made me realize it's a really beautiful tune. As a long time fan of Barbara am thrilled that her version is just that.
The most touching version!!! Barbra did it again!!!!
They could make a great animated video clip for this song. Almost draws itself...
Barbra's voice is magical. When she sings I'm transported away from all cares and worries of this world. I have loved her as a performer and singer for at least 50 years. This is a new song I haven't heard her sing before, and I love it.
The best of those darn NERD'S. And the ability to make a person enjoy a tune.
There's no apostrophe here 😿🔫
Barbra, I love your version of this song with Kermit. Back-in-the-day I used to play this song on a jukebox in a bar and it drove the customers nuts hearing this song over & over & over.
1964. I was a high school junior in a small South Carolina town. My cousin lip-synched 'Down With Love' in our talent contest (2nd place). I had never heard a voice or an energy like that, and I can say that Barbra Streisand changed my life. From that moment on, she let me know that it was okay to be different, to be exactly who I am, with no apologies. Her first three TV specials are high-water marks of what television could achieve. She redefined glamor. Never have I ever stopped loving her. Not for a moment.
I am from South Carolina too I've been a fan since 1974.
I absolutely agree. No other singer has even come close to the effect her voice has on me. She's beautiful too. The most gifted singer alive.
If “The Muppet Show” was ever revived, I would want Babs to be one of the guest stars.
This song never sounded better. There is no other voice like hers, Just beautiful.
After hearing so many versions of this song by other artists, finally Barbra brings LIFE to it.
I agree with you 1 million percent I've been listening to this basically daily weekly since it was released you got good taste lady or bro I didn't look at your name I just looked at your comment 😉😘❤️🌈🌈🌈
Karen sings it better
BAAAARBUUURAAAAAA BBAAAAAARRRBUUUURAAAAAAAAAAA
@evanhughes1510
Don't be a musical Karen
This is gorgeous, I wish it was solo 🥺
THE Voice of AMÉRICA!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Barbra Super Star!!! 👏👏🎙🎤👌👌🔷🔶💯✔⚘🌹💐🌷🙌🙌🙌
Oh my goodness what a beautiful magical gift I hope Jim got to hear this before he passed. He certainly is smiling down from heaven and hearing this again she has made this just simply magical
Absolutely beautiful!💖 She never disappoints.
The greatest Star by far. Let us all capture this because it will never happen again
She’s just a joy with the voice of an angel
Amazing....the duet we never knew we needed!🙌🙌🙌
I've always loved this song.. love you Barbara Steinstrand forever and forever. You too, Kermit.
No one can turn a three-minute song into a musical. No one, except Barbra, the actress who sings. She turns "Rainbow Connection" into a wistful dialogue between a 12-year-old girl and a frog so desirous of being much more. At the end of the song, you realize that both of them are jaunting off, hand in hand, to a brand-new world beyond the end of that rainbow. Barbra's (and Kermit's) performance is so immersive--and the orchestration so moving--you forget what the song was originally written for. It's that good.
Spot on! Only an actress like Streisand could pull off duets with partners with as diverse vocal styles as Celine Dion, Willie Nelson, Josh Groban and Kermit... not to mention with herself playing a mother and an infant ("Mother and Child").
@@samwharton7313 or with her own self (the "One Less Bell to Answer" medley)--a duet that is now as iconic as "Happy Days Are Here Again/Get Happy".
exactly...I've heard this song many times, I don't get it. Only now I understand what this song is about. No one can deliver the message of the song like Streisand. She's incomparable.
@@PaulAncheta Hi Paul. Her (their? 🤔😊) performance of “One Less Bell…/A House…” on the Bacharach special never ceases to amazing me.
Sydney has just gone into lockdown. This song has just released me. Bravo!
The most sensational, inspirational, celebrational Barbra
perfection :) bring me back to the 70s
Her voice here is like Waterford Cut Crystal - clear and pure... love the woman - saw her in the movie Funny Girl at 12 - 53 years ago and the love affair still continues...
It's the late seventies Barbra! So magical!
@Jameson Orr I want to be as loyal as you guys. It's been a year since I rediscovered Barbra and I'm just so glad I did.
Thanks people for taking the time to reply greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
@@PaulAncheta Paul you are a marvel like Barbra
@@ilovemovies725 I know and each one is its own reward love from Ireland
Thanks Barbra, we love you, we love you Kermit
PERFECT AND DELIGHTFUL !
Awe thanks again Barbra, Somewhere Over the Rainbow We Will All Be Safer and Happier Again, Stay Safer Darling and Everyone, XX
70's Streisand vocally is unsurpassed by all others. Pure and sublime. This is a voice gifted from heaven. Sit back and bathe in its wondour! Listen out for the 19 second note at the very end on the word 'me' by the way! Zero note looping, full orchestra and one big breath. Just wowwww.
Yes!!!!! 😃🌈
oh yes so true :)
Unfortunately, Jim Henson's original recording of Rainbow Connection is very heavily autotuned.
Jim Henson is no slouch, either!
You can add KAREN CARPENTER , who also recorded this song and her take of that song is also a masterpiece, her vocal is a fairytale from a magical land that come alive and you can't ignored her lower register which is a pure note. Love both of the, KC & Barb. ❤💞
I’m so so so happy they used Jim Henson’s Kermit vocal tracks for this 💜❤️
Unsurpassed, vocal perfection. Icon for the ages.
Legendary Barbara Streisand 💞💙💞💙💞
Randy Rainbow is my connection!
Loving and Purity of your Voice, always dear Barbara🙏☀️🌹 thank you thank you💚
Amazing!!! I would have loved if Barbra had been a guest on the Muppet Show!!!
According to Muppet Wiki, she was listed as a proposed guest star for the show’s second season.
@@carolinestrouse474 I wonder why they didn't go for it. But I didn't see any evidence on that site to support your claim.
It’s on the potential guest stars article on Muppet Wiki.
Two legends Barbra Streisand @ the loveable Kermit singing a song that makes me believe there is truely a Rainbow Connection love love this
How lovely is this already? This is a guaranteed put a smile on the face song😁 Barbra from the 70s and Kermit the Frog from Sesame Street. What a great throwback memory.
Kermit was from the Muppet Show. I wonder when this was done and for which show.
@@mikespindler6712 This song was made for The Muppet Movie (1980). They've even used (and autotuned) Jim Henson's performance from it here 💙
....And maybe some love for Paul Wiliams, the genius composer of this ditty, you might know him from A star is Born and many a Carpenter hit ?
Bugsy Malone ?
@@mikespindler6712 - Thank you, Mike, for this correction🐱
@@tomas8256 So this is actually Barbra early 80s! Thanks Tomas for this update.
what a voice !!!!! she is so great
💞🎶✨YESYES, YESYES✨🎶💞
Merci bien beaucoup, I love you Madame 💜💛❤️💜💛❤️
Barbra is the best! She is genuine beautiful talented! You have the # 1 voice in the world. Billboard says you’re the # 1 best singer ever. You’re the best actress too!! Love you Barbra!
Singer, songwriter, actress and director.
Goodness I love your voice. Your voice has accompanied me through some very hard times. I am so grateful 🙏 💛 I was 72 yesterday and I suppose you could be one of the heroes of the century at least for women and gays and maybe some of the men too.
My love xxx Susan 🎶🌈🦋💚🙏🏻
This is discussed as a duet with Kermit the Frog. In fact, it's a duet with Jim Henson, who was Kermit's voice and creator. Not enough credit is given to Henson for being such a good singer. He brings real charm and, ironically, humanity to this song.
So adorable, many thanks for this lovely song.
Magical! Perfect release for Pride weekend
Yessssssss❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Fabulous. Love that frog 🐸.
Ohhh! This is wonderful!
Thanks so much! 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈
🌸Pure Joy!!! Listened over, and over.
Thank you!!🌸
God damn, Barbara nailed it!
Pitch perfect perfection
@@dan74695 you need to see an audiologist lol auto tune and Streisand in the same sentence is an insult to the best female vocalist of all time
@@dan74695 that's why I prefer the original recordings made before auto tune was invented. Her voice in 1970's was sublime
@@dan74695 streisand loathes autotune and makes fun of "singers" who use it.
@@dan74695WHERE does it sound like she is auto tuned?
@@dan74695 Autotune might not have existed when this was recorded back in 1979. Besides, Barbra Streisand needs no autotune; she is a natural singer of the ethereal kind.
TALK ABOUT ALL THEE BABES WHO THINK THEIR THE BEST !!!! YOU JUST LISTENED TO THE BEST !!!!!!!!! A FEW SING VERY WELL , NOBODY HAS THIS LADY S RANGE , SHE COULD REALLY SING THE PHONE BOOK , AND IT WOULD BE A BEST SELLER. . ❤️❤️
I know that God chose Barbra to give this beautiful gift to. I love the asleep line. You really can see the movement in her glorious voice. The various tones and ranges in particular in this song. I dont think I've heard a more articulated range in her voice. I've basically run out of words for Barbra and the sound of her beautiful voice. I often wonder if her father would have known what he left her in that voice how amazed he would be at the success she's had. Anyone as gifted as Barbra couldn't have gone unnoticed. It was only a matter of time. Im just in awe of her. So many years of feeling this way.
Yes! When she sings the words "Half Asleep" her unbelievable talent exudes. Never hear this kind of skill from other singers. Ever.
Any music video? Barbra Streisand voice is so pure and innocent here...love it!
This is so beautiful Barbra 😍😍😍. Thank you.
B A R B R A
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 Oops sorry omg I didn't notice. It's an honest mistake , I'll fix it. Tadah! My spelling's correct now.
Magic and so much fun ! 2 Legends ❤️🐸
Super.. amazing 🤩🥰😍 nice voice I'm from India 🇮🇳😍🥰🤩
Honestly,all i can say about this duet is Thank You 💚
At 1:17, the chills from a particularly glorious vocal choice...that voice. Pure magic. This song is a perfect gift to us at all at this moment in time. Beautiful.
Legendary before her name is truly fitting.
I hope kids get to hear this and fall in love with Barbras music for life.
In Memoriam:
Jim Henson (1936-1990).
Lovely song, Barbra’s pure voice, reminds me of stand on the lanai in Maui gazing at the double rainbows. RIP mother and dad.😢😢
Did Kermit seriously sing this with her? Because this sounds amazing with the two of them!
This is a real recording. I think they asked her years ago and her son loved the song so she did. I think it was a one take song too. Pretty incredible recording. Don’t think it was ever released not sure though.
Thank you Barbra we love it.
Two icons ,who are both still relevant 🌈💌🎤🎼💚
Omg Barbra inspired me then and now! Came upon this by accident! I sing along with 2nd hand rose throughout my years! Thank you for a fun vibration and lyrics. Will listen again
LOVE YOU BARBRA! You sound fabulous! Miss you in the movies.
MAGICAL ❤❤❤
Barbra legend and goddess thank you, your voice and your being is a gift from God. 💜
She never sings this high. Charming.
Love Is Only Love from Hello Dolly?…like the high chords on a violin.
Thank you Barbra and Kermit. this is amazing!
I thought that this would be ruined with the way that it was put together but I really enjoyed it!
Barbra and Kermie!!!! 🤗💕. 🌸
BEAUTIFUL VOICE BARBRA, ALWAYS THE BEST!!
Wow, what a wait to hear such a wonderful charming song hidden in the vaults of unpublished Barbra's work. Barbra's voice is just the best. I can't stop playing. It brought a tear to my eye when I first played it. Its so charming this could be the next John Lewis Christmas advert.
I Love This Song! 😍🤩
🙈🙉🙊
Just a little bit of joy!
What is even more wonderful about this duet is hearing Jim Henson singing as Kermit. He was taken from us much too early and hearing him here with Barbra is very special and touching indeed.
Thank Babs 🌈 We love you 💕
Well, this is a very unique version of this song.
My favourite version of this wonderful song
