I haven't bought a Streisand cd for years as the last one I bought bored the pants off me, I didn't even listen to it all the way through - she has made some great albums in the past!

Great film---plus great song---played at my lovely Mathis friend , Ann 's funeral. When you really listen to the words, it makes sense.

Sng by JM not Barbra.

Don't care for these "duet" albums especially those where the other singer in the duet is dead and they've added his/her voice to the other's. I see Elvis Presley is one of the singers on this new Streisand album. Did she ever sing with him when he was alive? I doubt it, so it looks like this is one of those kinds of albums. I shan't be buying it.

Elvis and Striesand ... 8)


Elvis was going to be in A Star Is Born ...with her but turned it down as he did not want a role,that would associate him with a drug addict ...saw on a documentary about The Musicals .....

I agree Jon. I don't like any of those duet albums, except for the one of Matt Monro and Matt Monro Jnr. Some of the songs are better than the originals.

I can't believe Barbra Streisand agreed to this promotional stunt. She used to be only focussed on making the highest quality music in the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

Barbra has done a duet album before---but nearly everyone has done one.
