Her voice was not in as good a shape as it is in now. But I loved her in this number when she got the vanguard award. Marc Shaiman accompanies her.

Thanks Dame! She really knows how to sell a song and captivate an audience. I've been showing my 14 yo daughter some of her stuff from the 70's. She loves "Mein Herr"!

I love this as well. No, the voice isn't quite up to scratch, but it's totally committed.

I also loved her speech and the p.s.a. following the clip.

This song was unknown to me but is really interesting and Liza is captivating as she performs it. Did Marc Shaiman write it?

I love this performance! It's on the Liza With A "Z" dvd.

From the video notes on the YouTube video:

"The original song was "Comme ils disent", written and sung by Charles Aznavour"

It is also a popular drag number.
