Barbara Streisand Somewhere Reaction

[@jaybrielakoi7747]

1. Intro was long- That was the longest intro ever. Looked like a discovery channel type space thing. 2. Is this seriously what was being watched around the time I was born? Like this is seriously it. People were getting pumped up and watching stuff like this with these graphics. 3. I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't this. I didn't think it was going to be so powerful. I was expecting a lot less intense.

That's some stupid fan made video. Doesn't matter how long she makes me wait tho. Her voice sends me to heaven. Esp songs from either A Star Is Born, Yentyl, or Funny Girl. The ONLY other female can hold a candle to her vocally is Whitney. God had a blast with those two.

[@secondaryactons]

To be fair, this video was part of a longer documentary video for HBO on the making of the Broadway Album. The video wasn't really played on TV. And as far as the song is concerned, it's a tour de force, a three act play, a work of art to round out an album of incredible theatre songs.

[@caribeandude1]

There are countless Barbra Streisand interviews here on KZbin that you can view to learn about her. She is not only one of the greatest singers who ever lived but she's also an actress of great distinction, producer, writer, director. She has won Grammys, Golden Globes, Emmys, and a Tony award on Broadway. I would have researched her at least a little before attempting to review her music. An artist of this caliber deserves respect.

This type of analysis only serves to show how many young people today know so little about the music of previous generations and, precisely because of this, they don't have enough culture to understand and know how to appreciate its value. The commentator does not notice the magnificent arrangement and orchestration, he does not consider the lyrics of the song that contain a universal message, or the beautiful melody. The unique beauty of Barbra's voice and perfect technique also doesn't stand out to him, or even the precise use of vocal dynamics that goes from low to high volume with incredible ease, and the soulful way in which Barbra puts feeling into every word of the song. Yes, before analyzing one of the greatest singers of all times, it is necessary to learn a lot about music.

[@caribeandude1]

Barbra Streisand is a singer in the true sense of the word. Not one that needs flashy getups and over produced videos to cover up their lack of talent. Her amazing vocal chords is all she needs. Auto tune need not apply. Try listening to a song called "let's hear it for me" from her movie "Funny Lady". I'm sure you won't necessarily care for the song but it's her amazing voice and the notes she hits in it that you need to focus on. And that's just one of them.

[@1Benjamin1000]

Great, but It's Gonna Be a Great Day from the same movie is even better. As for Streisand's impact on the current music scene, Celine Dion, Beyonce, Lea Michelle, Sierra Bogess et al have named her as their idol. You're not going to do much better than that.

When you watch West Side Story, there is a meaning in this song with that crazy ending of a movie that we all know.. To me, this song is about a happy but tragic ending (where lovers know their expected fate (dying) and are choosing to go out happily. They are essentially living in it in the end, where they are in heaven. I am not talking about the 2021 remake, but the 1957 original of the beloved classic. I remember hearing this song at my friend's house, sung by Barb which is how I met my boyfriend at that same event. Such a refreshing song. My key point: 3:00 - 3:45 It tells a story, tragic, love, death, heattbreak..

[@Babaliciouss1]

This is homage to people suffering from aids and a place for gay people..there’s a place for us(lgbt people) she wants to take us from the pain and lead us to a safe place….this was timeless and classic.

This isn’t a typical entertainment music video from the MTV mold that did pop, rock, metal and other genres of the time. Streisand was a serious theatrical performer who also had a lot of tv specials and live concerts. This was done in 1985 by her record company to help promote her album titled The Broadway Album and was directed by respected director William Friedkin. Their intent was to stress the political themes behind the song, written by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim. Most of her “ music videos” were to emulate seeing her live in a serious concert and were not aimed at teenagers. The song is one of the most well-loved from the musical & film “West Side Story” and is the dream of lovers wishing for a time and place that is free of hatred, violence, anger and violence.

Everybody and their mother has recorded this song PRIOR to Barbra...not many have attempted it since. And, it is the closing of an album that takes you on a journey of the Broadway theater. Their were no "radio play hits" on the album, but as a whole, it was a smash both critically and sales wise.

[@victor1978100]

[@kevinsievert4531]

So, a couple quick suggestions. Initially, you probably shouldn't have a preconception regarding what you think someone should sound like before listening. What you listen to is what they sound like. Secondly, I thought the comparison between Karen Carpenter (incredible voice within a certain range) as the precursor to Streisand was way off. The Carpenters career spanned a decade at most, while Streisand began at a very early age (13 I think) and still has a career. Similar to thinking Atlanta (as an example) has a long and glorious history, until compared to Paris. Apples and Oranges

[@monalizalorenzo3662]

It has to be that long to show that an ethereal song by an ethereal being is about to be sang on earth. If you just stopped fidgeting how long the intro was, you may have noticed that it took you out of this world and back again. The intro and the fading music plunged you deep in the abyss. It's a very well composed song and music. Barbra is a diva and all her songs are intense.

[@davidferrara1909]

You're talking to a clueless kid. Don't waste your time. Hopefully his mom slapped him after she read his silly comments.

[@Babaliciouss1]

I loved and have loved this song…it’s about people who don’t fit into regular society and feel that there is no place for them. As a gay man and many with AIDS when this came out it was our mantra that we had a place in this world and she was going to take us there…The voice sores we really felt her continent to those who are different…she always felt out side of society too, that makes it all the more powerful. One last thing the intro is long so that you are taken you into this place not of the earth and into the song. Have you ever felt that you were outside of society? You are right this was state of the art at the time paving the way for what was to come…a bit of history if you will.

I’m just going to say you need a music education.. It’s great you listened to this but to be clear this song from ‘West Side Story’ which was a stage musical 1957 (then a movie 1961) by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim (I’m going to assume you don’t know who they are and have no idea their enormous contribution to music). As you obviously don’t know her incredible contribution. And finally, that you were comparing her to Karen Carpenter is hilarious. The Carpenters became popular in the 1970’s. Barbra Streisand has been a Broadway star and recording artist and movie star since 1964. I’m gonna suggest you do a little more research on what you’re playing so you have a bit of understanding before you just rattle off anything that makes clear you haven’t a clue what you’re talking about. With that said, kudos to you for listening to one of the greatest singing voices that has ever lived.

Regarding point #2. What do you expect people to be watching in 1985 only 3 years after the birth of the modern personal computer? Chip-based electronics had just been invented. Computer based video editing on a powerful MAC didnt exist because there was no MAC or the software. I can tell you what they WEREN"T watching back then. They weren't watching all the marginal young "talent" of today who have their inability to hit notes fixed with Autotune and their inability to play instruments in synch with others in the studio fixed with Pro Tools.

Like others said here, comparing Karen Carpenter and Barbra Streisand is hard because their music genres, styles, and voices are so completely different.

Karen was a pop star, Streisand was and still is to a degree, a true mega star. Check out is video of young new star Streisand singing with mega star Judy Garland on her show for a great example of both women’s styles which were much more similar: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHe5qYtph9msnrM

I now understand why you are a small tuber. Right in front if you and you miss it.

you are way off base. This lady is one of the great dramatic singers of all time. Do yourself a favor and listen to some of her early albums.
