Beyoncé The Way We Were Live at 31st Annual Kennedy Center Honors

[@Superchick2]

Beyonce killed it! Only Queen Bey's powerhouse vocals could carry such a beautiful, iconic song.

[@nealbrice]

"It's an honor to sing for you Ms Streisand"..... you won my heart Beyonce.....respect, and admiration.......... thank you for such grace.

[@justinjoseph6966]

I love how Barbara is watching her like a proud teacher watching her prized pupil! Beautiful performance!

[@AnnaMaeBullock]

I love her humility when she addressed Mrs. Streisand. It overflows with sincerity! Her earrings, hair & choice of dress were captivating. Her earrings were especially stunning! They made the whole thing work.

[@Mosey1966]

Beyonce should release this as a single!!! What an amazing job she did with this song!!!!!!!

[@reaunasims]

Beyoncé did incredible and you can tell Barbara approved. I love that Beyoncé always shows love and respect towards the legends that came before her.

[@johnosahon]

Barbara did some STANNING for Beyonce at the beginning. Your favs can NEVER get that reaction from a legend like Barbara, but mine can. LOL

[@shipp715]

She has Grown sooo much like she has became so powerful with her vocals she is def. a Icon

[@nadiatube]

Isn't she A TRUE QUEEN...Love you Queen Beyonce

[@icesk8js]

I love Barbra, and Beyonce! Its clear Barbra adored the the performance!

[@Faeze78]

That nod of apperciation Barbra gave to Beyonce is already enough :)

[@justdolphy2814]

Love this. And Love that Beyonce did a dress, makeup and hair style tribute to Barbra in "My Man" in "Funny Girl" movie. What a smart and talented girl!

[@DOMINIW5]

i love how plesant she started and how beautifully she said like the corners of my mind

[@valarangel]

freakin beyonce... she is so so so so good!!! perfect technique!! bravo!

[@normadesmond6017]

well. compare it to the streisand version.... that was perfection. this one is good. there's a diference.

[@ShotzFiredPyro]

@@normadesmond6017 yes da difference is Beyonce OUT DID THEE ORIGINAL

[@normadesmond6017]

[@aletabeystan]

I love this tears always in my eyes when Beyoncé sings

[@guywill7875]

The one part of this song that is a testament to the perfection of Beyonce's cover of "The way we were" is that pause at the end and then the humming at the end. She nailed that note for note from Streisand's original performance.

[@reaunasims]

Voice of an angel ❤️

[@HeidiPusskins]

She's gorgeous

[@ricardodiazf5953]

One of the most beautiful performances of this song, greatly listened by Barbra in life. Thanks!

[@nolaa64]

Ms. B Streisand personal picked Beyonce for this tribute to honor her! With that been stated, I guess they preferred her choice and not some stranger on youtube who preferred Celine Dion or Leona Lewis,lol :0)

[@fbueller]

I thought the entertainers selected to honor Kennedy Center awardees was always a surprise to them. Do they actually get to provide input?

[@TerrellAmari]

Hauntingly beautiful

[@haddynough8402]

Memories light the corners of my mind Misty water-colored memories of the way we were Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had the chance to do it all again Tell me, would we? Could we? Memories may be beautiful and yet What's too painful to remember We simply choose to forget So it's the laughter we will remember Whenever we remember The way we were The way we were

[@sascha1977]

AMAZING!!!

[@MANILHA-68]

magnificent, two divas.

[@nealbrice]

What respect you show MS Streisand!! That wins our Streisand hearts... and we Streisand fans are always loyal......... plus, such great hair.... very "The Way We Were" looking.. love you Beyonce......you have no limits.............."Dreamgirls proved that to the world."

I love Barbra for ever🥰🥰

[@TelvinLewis]

You can definatley tell Beyonce draws her vocal style from Barbra Streisand! Sounds just like her !! AMAZING!

[@truongphan90]

well, I think Beyoncé's voice fits this kinda of songs, and Christina's fits soulful songs. And they just perform the way the genres demand. :)

[@theluckyonez8744]

the voice that needs no filter and autotune👌🏿

[@JoshBroadhurst]

first of all, why are you not a beyonce fan????? you should reconsider this. secondly, i completely agree! she is brilliant live and so beautiful and genuine.

[@MrBeyonceful]

wow

[@toomuch4em]

You know that is it common practice for a performer to physically wear the Microphone on their body and to have the other one as a backup. You do know this right? Nope, you don't. Also, the Microphone is just as capable of picking up her vocals even as it is being lifted towards her mouth. It doesn't matter where she holds the microphone in her hand, the vocals are being picked up by both.

I have to agree jalex, I am not a fan of Beyonce at all but, she indeed was everything you said she was with this performance. IMAGINE how much more musical she (and others) would come across if they had even a small percentage of the class shown here, in their other material.

[@wyattcrow433]

i like her when she singing like this, shaking her booty is not enough for her..

[@happymarkkj]

i wonder how Barbra really felt during that performance.....how great it would have been to know the truth. But Beyonce did do a great job.

[@robincarter6474]

are you fucking stupid Barbra Streisand can't even sing that song like that beyoncé took that song to infinity and brought it all the fucking way into the future like you must really be deaf or old as fuck😡😡😡🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
