this was my mom's favorite song, when she was sick with cancer I would play this song for her, I would help her into my room, sit her in my chair and she would close her eyes and escape her illness for a few minutes, Rest in peace Mom.

Barbara is officially recognized as one of the greatest female singers in modern music. Kris Kristofferson is a powerhouse country artist. Beautiful song.

[@anthonyb1752]

"one of the greatest"? She is THE greatest female singer.

[@sharonlabrecque1655]

Barbra Streisand is hands down the Best singer of the last 60 years. In fact, so is the only singer male or female to have a #1 hit in every decade of the past 60 years!

[@donnamentrasti2695]

The closing numbers of Barbra's "A Star Is Born"..."With One More Look At You/Watch Closely Now" is an absolute must see! Nobody emotes the lyrics of a song better than Barbra. As the great lyricist Marilyn Bergman once said of Barbra..."The best singer that any lyric writer could ever have."

[@I_Kare]

The acting during that one scene alone was Oscar worthy. The range of emotions she went through was just amazing.

[@donnamentrasti2695]

@@I_Kare You're absolutely right!!!

[@jeanettesmith765]

Oh my God. Yes. I love that song!

One of my favorite songs of Barbra Streisand's

[@annadipietro4379]

Now you have heard the queen of romantic music and the best singer ever!!!!!!!

[@amb6899]

Barbara is in a league of her own. Maybe the greatest singer of all time Been around since the late 60s remember her great song People who need People. Many great songs

[@barzaVida2011]

Barbra Streisand is a true Living Legend, a one of a kind Artist, she has one of the best voices of the last 50 years!!

[@foxchasejrt1]

Such a beautiful song and scene from the movie, "A Star Is Born". IMO this is the best version of that movie made - beautiful and heartbreaking. Both Barbra and Kris are outstanding in their roles.

[@timmistorey5989]

I cannot tell you how happy I am that you did this. It's a beautiful song and so sexy with Kris Kristofferson xx. Do Barbara and Barry Gibb "guilty"

[@Sandyg1961]

Barbara Streisand is widely considered to be one of the great performers of the twentieth century. She has won Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards, one of very few people to achieve , what is referred to as EGOT. I personally rate A Star Is Born from 1976 one of my top ten movies of all. If you’ve seen the 2018 version with Brad and Gaga, you will certainly enjoy this one.

[@rebeccalipps23]

Oh, I love her! She shares the exact birthday with my mother...4/24/42. I also enjoy her turns at straight-out acting (Prince of Tides). She also has humor enough to poke fun at herself in SNL skits (She's like Butter).

[@JohnTBorek]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for hearing BARBRA STREISAND! She is absolutely the greatest female singer EVER!!! IT is a HUGE rabbit hole as her career spans 60 years. If you would like a suggestion for another song by her, PLEASE TRY-- ONE LESS BELL TO ANSWER/A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME. She performs this as a duet with herself and it is staggeringly beautiful, you will not believe your ears.. THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH. YOU TWO ARE TOTALLY AWESOME. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!

[@michaelasay8587]

I think Karen Carpenter!

[@tomschmitz261]

@@michaelasay8587 I personally prefer Karen carpenter myself, but comparing the two are like comparing apples and oranges.. Streisand actually said that karen had a "marvelous instrument"... Karen's brother Richard, told karen, that she was just as good as streisand, just in a different way. Karen sadly had extreme low self worth and could never believe such words. Paul Mccartney thought she had the greatest voice in the world, and John Lennon told her "I just want to tell you, you have a fabulous voice luv"...In closing, I always felt that Karen Carpenter was the ULTIMATE vocalist who sang to us the listener and NOT AT US...

[@BrettTwinSavage]

@@tomschmitz261 I agree--it is apples and oranges. Their voices are very different and both beautiful. Some like Barbra, some prefer Karen's. Thankfully, in regards to vocals, music, visual arts, drama, literary works, we have so much to choose from, and the way two people respond to the same work is never the same. (Though I do have an identical twin and we sometimes come really close...🤓🤓)

[@angelado3]

❤❤❤ She has a voice like no other- When you hear it you just know it is Barbra Streisand. And I did not miss spell it I double checked- 😃

[@michaelasay8587]

So does Karen Carpenter who I feel is better.

The Way We Were by Barbara ❤️

[@Marcus-Oh-really-yes]

This song was co-written by Barbra Streisand and Paul Williams (who wrote "We've Only Just Begun" and "Rainy Days and Mondays" for the Carpenters and "An Old-Fashioned Love Song" for Three Dog Night and "Rainbow Connection" for the Muppets from 1979's "The Muppet Movie"). "Evergreen" won the Oscar for best original song. ... You might also like Barbra's song "Papa, Can You Hear Me?" from the 1983 movie "Yentl," which Barbra starred in and directed and co-wrote the screenplay for. It was nominated for an Oscar for best song.

[@LadyGator1983]

Beautiful song! Her voice is the best.

[@robrobertson4619]

Great reaction! Great song! My wife and I met at end of 1976 during our first year of college. We started dating and this became our song! 45 years this year! This song works!! 😁

[@workingman6681]

Must see movie.

[@catenystrom6506]

The notes she hits in this song are amazing!!

[@lilpoohbear653]

flawless

[@dagmar.6954]

"Evergreen" is the theme song from the 1976 film "A Star Is Born". Such a beautiful song. It was composed & performed by Barbra Streisand with lyrics by Paul Williams. Streisand & Williams earned an Academy Award for Best Original Song, making Streisand the first woman to be so honored as a composer. She also earned a Grammy Award for Song of the Year.

[@wnsafford1854]

Evergreen/Barb received 2 Grammy's (nominated for 3); Song of the Year & Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female. Also earned a Golden Globe (nominated for 2) for Best Original Song.

[@tammimorton1634]

This was our wedding song in 1980! Thanks for the memories!!

[@octoberguy]

I like early Barbra.... Listen to "People" ... "Don't Rain on My Parade".... and "Happy Days Are Here Again"

[@danastearns7939]

She also starred in "The way we were" with Robert Redford and released a single with the same title. Another great love song from a movie is: "Love Story" ('68?), movie with the same name and the single was sung by Andy Williams. Definitely a few of the best ever. She most definitely one of the icons of American Music, arguably the most accomplished and recognized female voices ever. Very nice reaction.

[@acripe9875]

My favorite Star is Born!!! They have great chemistry in the movie!! You should definitely watch this version.

[@moonstone1159]

[@sandyleewhite]

Barbra Streisand is an American singer and actress. With a career spanning over six decades, she has achieved success in multiple fields of entertainment, and is among the few performers awarded an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. She is one of the last surviving stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood. She is simply timeless & evergreen 😊💖💖😊

This is my all time favorite movie. I watch it about three times a year and it never gets old.. the whole soundtrack is awesome.. do women in the moon next

[@aharon59]

A Star Is Born was one of the most popular movies of the 70`s and made Barbra Streisand, who was already a superstar , into a mega star. Kris Kristofferson, her co-star was a very popular singer and actor in the 70`s too. They were not a couple, He was married to another singer at the time Rita Coolidge .

[@davewhitlow2984]

You've now heard the best female voice of the past 100 yrs. (Oh, but the studio version of this one is incredible)

[@paxonearth]

Incredibly special.

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

If there was a Mount Rushmore of female vocalists, the first face that would be carved would be that of Barbra Streisand. Arguably the greatest female singer in history. This song, "Evergreen," didn't have Kris Kristofferson singing on the single that rose to #1 on the charts. Barbra re-sang it for the movie, and Kris was added because he was in the film. You could do a deep dive into Streisand's hits; the catalog is pretty large. But none of the reaction channels have yet done a reaction to the song that put her on the map in the first place. I strongly suggest you do a reaction to her 1962 hit, "People." It is one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. From the Broadway musical, "Funny Girl." "People" is definitely worth a listen. You guys would love it.

[@ellenfaulkner5070]

This is one, if not my favourite, of Barb's songs. Still play it from time to time when I'm alone. Love to be immersed in the highs n lows of this uniquely beautiful song which evokes your imagination, lyrically speaking. One of the best power-house voices with a phenomenal top register of all time in my opinion. Also worth noting, I'm truly amazed how she could sustain those notes without fumbling with Kris Kristofferson being so wonderfully distracting🥴 lol. Thanks for reacting to this one, it was a treat 🍬🍭

[@knew3355]

That scene is from the second remake of “A Star is Born” with Barbara Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. The movie was remade again a few years ago with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. Original was in 1937 and the first remake was in 1954 with Judy Garland. The storyline was a little different but the premise the same. This song was everywhere back in the late seventies and really is beautiful. I recommend you guys watch both the 1976 and 2018 versions of the movie if you haven’t, they are both great.

[@davidvornsand9551]

Third remake the second remake was Judy Garland the original was Janet Gaynor but was not a musical ☮️❤️

I've seen the Judy garland and James mason one and the Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson one.i like gaga but am not interested in the.current one at the moment. Judy did a brill job.

[@liamthompson9090]

Great song.

[@brl0522]

Hands down my favorite movie of ALL time!

[@patty3188]

Perfection

[@belkyhernandez8281]

Barbra Streisand was one of those actresses that could be believable as a goofy dork, a devoted daughter, a regular woman in love, or a temptress one minute and a signing phenomenon the next. And sometimes she did both at the same time. What makes her special is that she acts the songs, she doesn't just sign them. So without context we aren't sure what is performance and what is real Barbra. She is 80yrs old now I think.

[@auntyangie33]

This is a great film. Every generation makes a version of "A Star is Born"

[@lutdesimpelaere2947]

The more Barbra the better. It would be great to do “ crying time” , Barbra in a duet with Ray Charles.

[@Deej496]

No matter how many times I see this, I still well up with tears..

[@starlightperkins330]

Streisand wanted Elvis to play her love interest in this version of "A Star is Born", but manager Colonel Parker ruined the negotiations and Elvis didn't get the part that he wanted so badly.

[@jeanday9747]

Goosebumps. Thank you both for bringing back my memories. Love you both.

[@dks6714]

This is my mom's favorite song. it is beautiful

[@robertasirgutz8800]

The greatest natural talent, Barbara's voice. She wasn't considered beautiful in the Hollywood sense. But I think she's gorgeous.

Definitely watch this movie. Tearjerker (spoiler!), but an amazing soundtrack. Her voice has such power, range, and control. La Streisand is an icon. Thanks for this one!

[@jessmontes8129]

So Beautiful!!!!!

[@d.j.starling3559]

Barbra Streisand = a rabbit hole you absolutely MUST jump into. Early (1962) live version of My Man is incredible. So is her rendition of Somewhere from the play/movie WEST SIDE STORY (you shouldn't miss the 1962 movie version. One of the best movies ever - with exquisite music!!!!! Barbra wasn't in it, but she eventually recorded several songs from it) Of course, just about anything by Barbra is quite special. One of my favorite recordings of hers is What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life. Jump into the Barbra rabbit hole & be entertained like you won't believe!!!!!

[@bruceeven9942]

My favorite of Barbra's. She's simply the greatest female singer of all time.

[@TangoEliott]

Barbra Streisand is, in my opinion, the greatest voice I ever heard.

[@rhh3582]

Thank you, thank you, thank you - why the thank you - you are the very first to allow a song by Barbra to play completely with your interrupting with, to me, meaningless comments. I thank you. Evergreen was written, composed, song by and was in a movie staring Barbra (A Star Is Born) and, if memory serves me - won an Oscar for Best Song - it really is a beautiful love song and done extremely well by Barbra and Kris Kristofferson. Thank you over and over again. A suggestion - one song sung by Barbra was during the 2001 Emmy Awards closing number - Barbra sang "You Will Never Walk Alone" as a salute to those who lost their lives and to the first responders who lost their lives trying to save those who unfortunately lost their lives when the towers collapsed _ it was an extremely moving and emotional performance. That performance is here on You Tube beginning to end.

[@suzanneprock7286]

This Star Is Born is a remake of the 50's version with Judy Garland, one of my favorite movies and Barbara is a hard act to follow. Her voice is hard to match and I would recommend watching this movie, lots of wonderful songs in it. Kris Kristofferson is an amazing song writer.

[@robinschulze934]

It’s great to see The love in You to !!!!

[@sirpoppinchuck]

My mom used to love Barbara Streisand. I saw the movie in 76 it was very romantic this song n the movie. She one of the greatest singers ever!! I think she listened to Shirley Bassey because their ranges are similar. Shirley Bassey is 86 n still can belt out tunes. “Diamonds are forever” James Bond theme and “Gold finger” classics Shirley is a serious check her out!!!

[@faithnyou1732]

Barbara Streisand and Kris Kristofferson was never a couple in real life. They were the leads in the movie "A Star Is Born", and "Evergreen" was the theme song. They both are rabbit holes you should go down! Thanks for this reaction! 💙✌

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

[@NeptuneLady1957]

Beautiful song; terrific film (A Star is Born). I liked it much better than the Gaga/Bradley Cooper version. Note, Kris Kristopherson had that same chemistry with Rita Coolidge (she was his wife for a time) and they sizzled together.

I love that you guystry and appreciate new things ! keep up the good work. . .she has a lot of music and movies under her belt !

[@delisamarchetti5926]

That is such a beautiful thought Mel, I know what you mean. I like to be around people who love each other too. Especially couples that show their love for one another by talking kind and sweet to each other and especially so when they are around their children. My mom and dad, had many pet names for each other and as kids it always made me happy when they would hug or when dad would put his arm around mom's shoulders and spoke to her with these sweet endearments. My husband did not grow up around that , but when he saw my parents he thought it was beautiful too and that is something we have incorporated into our marriage. We have often thru the been called the "love birds". I would not want it any other way.
