Also true. Yes, I always got a good laugh out of watching her try to run on film - knock-kneed and pidgeon toe'd, if you ask me. But her voice was perfection (possibly because of the risks she took as a performer, more than anyone around today) The first three album releases are magnificent. And as far as comic performance goes - I LOVE her in What's Up Doc?.

Posted: 8/4/05 at 8:37pmI love early Barbra Streisand, and still do but she kind of lost me about the time she started doing duets with Don Johnson.
#28re: Barbra Streisand - Guilty Pleasure
Posted: 8/4/05 at 9:19pmInterestingly enough, I liked that first (at least I think it was the first) duet with Don Johnson - 'Til you Loved Me. But most of the other stuff from that part of her career did certainly tend to lean in a downhill direction, if you ask me!

I love early Barbra. I love What's Up Doc...(we miss you Madeline)

Posted: 8/5/05 at 8:26amOh God yes - Madeline was a genius. "What have you done with Howard's Rocks???!!!"

Madeline once made a statement that she was dissapointed that she and Barbra didn't become more than professionally friendly during the making of WHAT'S UP, DOC? "I liked her and I thought we had a lot in common. But she wasn't interested in hanging out with me at all."
To be fair to Barbra, she was merrily boinking the young and oh-so-tender Ryan O'Neal during the filming.
To be fair to Maddy....You were too good, sweetheart!
#34re: Barbra Streisand - Guilty Pleasure
Posted: 8/5/05 at 8:40amQuite frankly, if I were given the choice of hanging out with Madeline or boinking the (then) amazingly handsome and dangerous Ryan O'Neal, I'd do what Barbra did - and without having to worry about damaging my vocal cords.

Posted: 8/5/05 at 8:43amHe WAS cute, wasn't he? That scene with him in the boxers and black socks is just plain Hot. And I don't usually go for blondes.

He was in great shape and a hairy blonde guy, which I love.
And you just know he could go for hours and be rough and tough.

Yeah, he was a furry juicy thang, wasn't he? 
Oh, how the mighty have grown puffier...
#38re: Barbra Streisand - Guilty Pleasure

older, yes, and some get more 'bear' able.
But last I saw him, Ryan really puffed out.

Posted: 8/5/05 at 11:50amBut he's still a talented man - remember that short lived series two years ago, Miss Match or something like that - with Alicia Silverstone (we were liking it at the beginning, but then they brought in Melissa Errico and for some reason the series plumeted!LOL.) Anywhoo - I think, if I recall correctly, that Ryan played her father, and he was quite funny.

Posted: 8/5/05 at 11:51amHe always played comedy well.

Posted: 9/20/05 at 1:39amThe album is out tomorrow? I thought someone said December.Funny how some people here trash Barbra but think nothing of a 47 year old Madonna trying to keep up with the 20 year olds (like a parent who gets up on the dance floor of their childs school dance to show she still a "groover").

First of all, AMEN alterego!
Secondly, I bought the cd today and it is DIVINE. Definitely one of her best in many years - every single song is beautiful, and her vocals simply shine. Standouts include "Come Tomorrow", "Without Your Love" and "All The Children". There is also a wonderful cover of Andy Gibb's "(Our Love)Don't Throw It All Away".
All in all, I am very happy with this album. It is all I expected and more!! I hope this is a huge hit because it definitely has the potential!
