Thank you, Space Captain, for posting this! I just saw it!!! I love both of these icons so much! This is AWESOME! :D And thanks for this info, Ralph! I didn't know that! Ari's Mom Rocks!
i wish ariana would be remembered when she's old, she's one of the few current mainstream artists that has shown to be extremely talented and someone who totally deserves the succesful she's getting. she's just special.
@@TheNYHITTINGACADEMY oh honey she can, ariana can hit higher and bigger notes than barbra, she's just being humble in this performance but if she isnt then she would've ate barbra up, her lower register is amazing in this performance tho
Not sure why but it seems Barbra has a problem with singing a duet live. Like her duet with Celine they haven't sang it live too. Its like Barbra always finds an excuse not to do it. So sad.
That is sad they never performed it live together-- back then Babs was too scared to perform live, which is why Donna Summer sang Papa Can You Hear Me at the Oscars for Barbra. But they did see each other and they did talk up until Donna died. Barbra had just talked to Donna about a month prior, I think. In a concert Barbara said she wished Donna was there to sing with her, and that maybe she could get an animatronic Donna Summer to sing Donna's lines.. lol
Notice how Ariane FACES Streisand! It’s so brilliant she never tries to hog the limelight. She can also hold her own vocally with the legend and again never tries to outsing her. Respect to them both. A life enhancing musical moment for 2019!
Their voices blend so well. I love the energy between these two. Ariana's hair looks great. I love the way they are moving and dancing bouncing together.
Branner September, 2019 Really, I didn’t get that impression at all. You may be correct, But, my perception was that Arianna was too consumed with playing around on Stage, as opposed to demonstrating that she could sing . To be “given “ the opportunity to share a stage with Barbra, I’d want my audience to remember my voice, And NOT; my ability to dance on a stage. I’m of the belief that Ariana knows the NAME, but NOT, her legacy of songs. It is her voice that she is known for, and NOT for any scandalous behavior.
I love how Ariana respected living legend Barbra with a lower register and a vibrant youthful energy. I love how Barbra embrace the new generation (and their parents) who idolize her. this was a perfomance done with class and sheer perfection. Love you both Barbra and Ariana. The Voice and my newfound admiration for Ariana brought me here.
What an honor for Ariana! It’s like she’s received the seal of approval from one of the greatest singers EVER-Barbra Streisand! And I thoroughly agree because I love Ariana’s voice!
THIS IS ONE IF THE GREATEST DUETS EVER. DONNA AND BARBRAS VOCALS, OUT OF THIS WORLD. ARIANA, YOU DID THIS JUSTICE. DONNA WOULD BE PROUND, MAY SHE R.I.P. 🤗
Barbra was in the 70s and now she’s 81 but she can still sing!! She had such great technique and that’s what allowed her to preserve her voice so well. And Ariana to be singing with this legend shows how amazing Ariana truly is. And I love how Ariana is slaying in her lower register here.
Clearly her voice isn't what it once was, but even a lesser voice is still better than 99.9999999999% of all humans who ever sang. It still gives me a lot of joy listening to her, and that's the whole point.
Ariana allowed Barbra to shine, even in her wardrobe choice, such obvious respect. Bravo Barbra for always recognizing and collaborating with generations of talented and gifted women.
The great thing about Barbra is that she sings 'live'. That's right, even at 77 she can still sell a song that she sang in the 70's & still sound great, tho her range is lower only in due respect to her age, but boy, the woman is a dynamo & still has tremendous stage presence. Simply adore her & have done for 40+ years. Sing that song Babs.
You betcha! The early London concert was a tiny bit ragged around the edges, but I think it was because so many - in that Hyde Park throng of thousands - were TALKING amongst themselves & threw off her legendary hearing. Some of cellphone-recorded things which first came out had a monstrous din around them!
What s night this was. Barbra has still got it. What a wonderful surprise Ariana coming out. The crowd went crazy. They should get in the recording studio and remake this. It would be a huge hit❤🎵❤🎵
A true icon that I've loved for over 45 years. Her voice is far from what is was in the 70's, but she's still got it! Way to go Barbra! Grande has quite a voice to be reckoned with as well. Time will tell how long her career will last.
Queen, I got misty eyed too. Maybe it’s because the great Donna Summer has been gone for almost a decade now. I never thought anyone could take Donna’s place in the song, but Ari surprisingly did it well. Did this take you back to your childhood? It did me. Those were the days.
Barbara showing the likes of mariah carey etc how u keep ur voice looked after well trained... so so brilliant.. and ariana held those low notes amazingly! Love love !!!!
Youth! Magic. Sole! Well that comes with time. I born was in the 60's so heard Barbra when she was younger belting her songs out with ease. Still admire her now. Arianna is a talent for sure, so to see two quality singers together is literally music to my ears.
WOWWWWW Ariana doing those low Donna Summer notes on the bridge!!!!!! JEEZUS!!!!! "I had no choice.... from the start..... I've got to listen to my heart...... Tearing us apart......."
Singers who have that wide a vocal range are rare & rarer still, are singers who have 'power' up & down their whole vocal range. Brava Ladies, Multi Brava!
Omg this is soooooo GREAT!!! They should record more together. I love this so much!!! I love Ariana and Barbra together!!! MORE MORE BRAVO!!! OH GOD! GIVE THESE TWO WOMEN TIME ON TV PRONTO!!!!
First of all, Ariana ate this up. Second of all, I'm glad she applied the same things in the voice battle that she did here like the background vocal and by using her hand at "out that door now".
THIS PERFORMANCE WAS ENJOYABLE AND MEMORABLE, WHAT A COUPLE !!! WHAT A LADIES !!! I LOVE BOTH OF THEM. TWO GENERATIONS COLLIDE TOGETHER TO CREATE A MASTER PIECE.
I know me too I lost it when that pic came up. Can't no one sing it like her. Barbara should be ashamed she never sing this live with Queen Donna Summer i cant believe that.
Barbra streisand is one of my favorites. After all these years she still have that voice. So beautiful how she sings with young singers nowadays only proving she aint place that superstardom in her head. She is still and will always be the diva of all divas. Legendary artist. On the other hand, ariana grande is one of the best young female singers we have today and she admires barbra as her idol and inspiration. What a great collaboration. Hoping that barbra will do duets with beyonce, christina, kelly clarkson, katy, lady gaga, rihanna, miley cyrus, demi lovato etc maybe on her next album.
If both can't have a studio recording of this song, at least Ariana should record this for the new generation to enjoy! Love when Ariana "dared" to "command" Barbra by tapping her and grab her hand for the dramatic ending. I always thought Barbra is "untouchable".
Why y'all had to sing this Omg I'm in tears now😭😭 I'm sorry but no one can do it like DONNA SUMMER. I miss her sooo much but Ariana was Amazing her Vocals were on point. For a split sec she sounded like Donna on the record LOL.. Thank you & Love you Barbara for the memories those were the times.
Barbra Streisand was beautifully belting this song at age 77! And major props to the excellent Ariana Grande for this dynamic duet where she sang WITH and not OVER the legend!
inspirational!!!!.....77yr old n still pushing n going strong.........their voices compliment each other beautifully....Ariana cld easily attempt to upstage the queen but payed her respects by staying in her lane.....GO STREISAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!....god bless the child!!!!!!!!!!!!
Barbra ks such a queen and an icon. bless Ariana, you can see how much she adores her. i'm so happy that Ari gets to be in stage with legendary artists and you can tell how grateful she is for it. both amazing and their voices blended so well
Ariana is so lucky to get to sing with her idol! ❤ Back in 2004 she was watching Barbra's concert with her mom and now she's on stage singing with the incredible Barbra Streisand! 🎉😍👑
That... was... AWESOME! Not necessarily an Ariana fan, I like her, love that song she does with The Weeknd, but she killed it! And Barbra ... What is she... In her 70s here? Wow!!!
I am also Donna's fans seems like finaly has poster she and Donna I maybe wrong but I never saw Barbra endorsed this song before other than it is on her album Wet, I am happy, I also like Donna Summer sang Papa Can You Hear me at the Oscar
I have new respect for Ariana. She could've outshone Barbra (I mean, Barbra's voice is older, it happens to all of us), but she didn't. She stayed on the low notes for the most part, let Barbara take the high notes, and didn't do runs. I'm sure it was arranged that way, but even in the live performance she wasn't tempted to just hit a whopper of a note and come out louder and over the top like she EASILY could've. And at the end she was helping Babs know when to end the song...she got her attention and held her hand and indicated with her head "we're ending at this point," because it looks like Barbra got lost on where they were in the song. She did an amazing job and gave Barbra the respect she deserves.Brava!
The reason is Streisand NEVER DID CONCERTS!!! Period. She was an academy award winning actress who dominated the movie box office in the late 60s and 70s and then went on to become a director in the 80s and 90s she doesn't like to sing! I've worked for Barbra over the years and can tell you she only started performing this song AT ALL within the last 6 yrs. Barbra likes interpretive songs and ballads vs disco or pop and shies away from singing anything off her "guilty album" which is her biggest selling album at 6M copies and pure pop. The point, she doesn't care about popularity or pop music. She adored Donna Summer and has referenced her in many concerts and tweets that she wished she were still alive so they could sing it together. I think in her 70s Barbra is more willing to sing stuff she's not crazy about and have more fun on stage. As an FYI, during the recording and rehearsals with Donna, Barbra said, "this song is in your arena. if you have any suggestions, i'm all ears." Streisand is more interested in DELIVERING a great product, than showing someone up... a la the rumours of Mariah and Whitney and Celine.
Thanks, Karim! This is the first time in a very long time that I've seen Barbra in such ebullient form while performing! Magical! I can only imagine how explosive this would have been had Donna Summer been there instead of the beautiful and lithe Miss Grande.
I don't think Barbra would ever sing this song onstage with Donna (even if she was alive). I noticed that after Donna's death, Barbra added this song to her show. The two legends NEVER sang the song onstage together. I believe the reason why Streisand performs this song is, to pay homage to Donna and her legacy. Notice the picture of them in the background on stage.
Thanks Paul. Agreed it would have been phenomenal with Donna. You/re right about the performance; it was spectacular; just brought blew the lid off the place!
Barbra and Donna I've always loved both of these ladies ♥️🤗. Ariana WOW, she's an awesomely talented young lady 😊. I miss my Donna♥️♥️♥️, still loving my Barbra♥️♥️♥️.
@@takemyhand1988 Ariana us the best Vocalist of this generation. Her technique is the most improved out of all the young vocalists out here. None of the current vocalists of this generation have the range, skill, or ability that Ariana does. So it's best to not say things to ridicule yourself. You'll look stupid if you disrespect a singer who can outsing you any day.
@@CosmicWin not really. Ariana is the best mainstream singer in this generation. But the best vocalist is not her. Her phrasing is bad. Her chest engagement is less. There's not enough open throat sound. Her notes most of the time can get pitchy. I would say she's the best vocalist of this generation is falsetto. No one can beat her in that.
Ariana's mother tweeted the link to this video!!
Really? Thankyou Mrs. Grande!
Yess hehehe
@@thespacecaptain1 thank you for preserving this magical moment.
Thank you, Space Captain, for posting this! I just saw it!!! I love both of these icons so much! This is AWESOME! :D And thanks for this info, Ralph! I didn't know that! Ari's Mom Rocks!
@@thespacecaptain1 Recently on The Voice Ariana said that she and her Mother sang this song together, they love it!!!!
Donna is smiling.
i wish ariana would be remembered when she's old, she's one of the few current mainstream artists that has shown to be extremely talented and someone who totally deserves the succesful she's getting. she's just special.
Ariana's tone OMG. And Barbra's voice is still impeccable.
I love Ariana's lower register and Barbara's voice is STILL so strong and resonant! This was a treat.
Really? You love this? Then learn how to spell BARBRA. Go away.
@@bingovegas4867 it was just a mistake, Babs is amazing so I’m not surprised that this user love this She or he just made a mistake
@@bingovegas4867 Telling someone to go away when you're the one replying to them ??? strange
She did it justice I got a chill when she hit that one note. And there will never be another legend like Donna Summer..
Donna will be forever missed.
Bryans song alone the Queen is sadly missed...
NEVER another Donna...One of a kind....Amen to that.
Dammmm Babs!!! Still got it, sis. Great job!!!!!!!!!
RIP to my disco queen, Donna Summer 😪🙏
i really love how Ariana didn’t oversing it & didn’t try to outshine miss Barbra or miss Donna.🖤
that pop tart cant outsing Streisand or Summer

Cause she can never will
Ariana is so incredibly talented she’s adored by artists from every genre and every era. That there should tell everyone how amazing she really is.
Meh 😒
She wouldn't be there if Barbra Streisand had not existed. Barbra was the biggest star in the world in the 60s,70s,and 80s FYI.❤💖
In your opinion.
@@blubeaz do u know how to read…the comment is about how Ariana respects and adores artists from different eras…why are being so defensive….
@@HS-sr3go I'm not, you're rude and defensive and can't write!
Sad Donna Summer & Barbara never performed the song live.
Ariana did a good job. Donna was smiling down on her.🙏
I think there are some rumors that barbs was afraid to be overpowered by donna summer
Not sure why but it seems Barbra has a problem with singing a duet live. Like her duet with Celine they haven't sang it live too. Its like Barbra always finds an excuse not to do it. So sad.
Lenny A. Walker she done Donna proud 👍

Donna has done in her DVD live and more encore with Tina Arena.
I love Ariana, you could tell she never wanted that moment to end. She just wanted to keep hugging her. What a beautiful soul!

Their voices blend so well. I love the energy between these two. Ariana's hair looks great. I love the way they are moving and dancing bouncing together.

That was great - you could really tell how much Grande loves Streisand.

The late Donna Summer would be extremely pleased with Ariana Grande stepping in her shoes for this remarkable song with Miss Barbara Streisand.
It's "Barbra." 🙂

I have new respect for Ariana. She could've outshone Barbra (I mean, Barbra's voice is older, it happens to all of us), but she didn't.

She did an amazing job and gave Barbra the respect she deserves.Brava!

What a pleasure for you all to get to watch this in person..... omg!!!!!
It was surreal, for sure. It would not surprise me if this ends up being one of her last live performances.
girl can sing; and ariana doin' the diva stuff pretty good, too. Ms Streisand: "Isn't she lovable?"
I can't forgive Barbra never did the original duet with the great Donna!

Thanks Paul. Agreed it would have been phenomenal with Donna. You/re right about the performance; it was spectacular; just brought blew the lid off the place!
THE QUEEN AND THE PRINCESS!!!! It doesn't get better than this!!
barbra streisand's no more tears
ariana grande's no tears left to cry
i love a concept.
Barbra and Donna I've always loved both of these ladies ♥️🤗. Ariana WOW, she's an awesomely talented young lady 😊. I miss my Donna♥️♥️♥️, still loving my Barbra♥️♥️♥️.
not people in the comments disrespecting the vocalist of the generation
Who?
Ariana is not the vocalist of generation. She is the best mainstream singer out there. But she's not near best vocalist of this generation
@@takemyhand1988 Ariana us the best Vocalist of this generation. Her technique is the most improved out of all the young vocalists out here. None of the current vocalists of this generation have the range, skill, or ability that Ariana does. So it's best to not say things to ridicule yourself. You'll look stupid if you disrespect a singer who can outsing you any day.
@@CosmicWin not really. Ariana is the best mainstream singer in this generation. But the best vocalist is not her. Her phrasing is bad. Her chest engagement is less. There's not enough open throat sound. Her notes most of the time can get pitchy.
I would say she's the best vocalist of this generation is falsetto. No one can beat her in that.
@@takemyhand1988 totally agree.
Amazing concert Streisand’s voice still mind blowing
brabra she's legend....queen songbird...6decades in music industry love from the philippines no another one barbra straisand
I was there in the nosebleed section!!! Her take on Send In the Clowns was iconic.
