Wow. A freeper post that praises Streisand - I thought that would never happen.
I’ve been a Streisand fan for 40 odd years now. A great entertainer, an Israel/IDF lover, a woman who has brought women’s heart disease to an American audience when all they seem to care about is breast cancer and a complete doofus when it comes to American domestic affairs. Who knows why she has been overlooked? She’s got enough money and awards to last a life time. As her ex-husband, Elliot Gould, observed: she lives like an empress. And, believe me, she does. Maybe, one day, she can entertain our tacky, icky, goyishe American troops. Then, I can truly respect her.
I’m with you. I was only a kid when she sang People. It swept my heart away.
