What can be said about todays Mystery Artist?
She is one of the most commercially and critically successful female entertainers in modern entertainment history and the best-selling female recording artist of all time, with more than 71.5 million albums shipped in the United States and 140 million albums sold worldwide. She is the best selling female artist on the Recording Industry Association of America’s (RIAA) Top Selling Artists list and the only female recording artist in the top ten. Her achievement is all the more remarkable, as she is the only artist who was not a part of the rock n roll genre. Along with Frank Sinatra, Cher, Jamie Foxx and Shirley Jones, she shares the distinction of being awarded an Oscar for a leading role and also recording on a #1 pop single on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
According to the RIAA, she holds the record for the most Top 10 albums of any female recording artist; a total of 31 to her credit since 1963. She also has the widest span (46 years) between first and latest Top 10 albums of any female recording artist. With her 2009 album, Love Is the Answer, she became the only artist to achieve number 1 albums in five consecutive decades. Her RIAA tally shows she has released 51 Gold albums, 30 Platinum albums, and 13 Multi-Platinum albums in the United States.

For the moment when we touch, No wind can hold me

Make It Like A Memory
Didn’t I like to hold you in my hand
I was doing you no harm
I made you understand
All my life I’ve been that way
It happened long ago
Didn’t I pray to love you through the night
I was dreaming wide awake
The early morning light shine on me
A sorry state
My heart has told me so
And the storm clouds gather overhead
No shelter we can share
Lie down on my flower bed
I got no control
I would sell my soul
To be there
So forever do or die
We just belong
Kiss hello , no wave goodbye
And the heat is stronger
For the moment when we touch
No wind can hold me
Come from loving you too much
And the nights are longer
Make it like a memory
Make it like a dream unreal
Make it like we never met
But I can’t forget
It’s how I feel
Make it like a memory
Take away the sound and the sight
There’ll never be another love
With the power of , you and I
Maybe I’m wrong to hold you in my hand
I believed you when you lied
I tried to understand
All my life , I’ve been that way
It happened long ago
Make it like a memory
Make it like a dream unreal
Make it like we never ever met
But I can’t forget
It’s how I feel
Make it like a memory
Take away the sound and the sight
There’ll never be another love
With the power of , you and I

babs, my homegirl, albeit a bit older than I, with make it like a memory, written by, of all people, not jimmy fallon or justin timberlake, but barry gibb ! I gotta tell you folks that with all she has done, to have seen her live on the Broadway stage twice, first in I Can Get It For You Wholesale, and then in Funny Girl, were two of the highlights of my theatergoing experience.
Well there’s no questioning her talent and versatility, thats for sure Alan. Although its not always my cup of tea, I do love this song and I don’t doubt her genius for one moment.
Nor would I doubt the talent of Barry Gibb, come to that… he might not always have put it to its best use, but that is a different story.

Hi Dave:
Clearly Barbra Streisand whom I have loved for as many decades as she has been singing. Alas, I don’t know all the lyrics for all her songs, which is why I have Madame Google. It comes up as “Make It Like A Memory”. As for awards and stuff, this woman has more hardware than Ace. That’s a US hardware chain in case you didn’t know it. Later
No, I didn’t know actually Hil…
I am quite sure you do love Barbara, there’s no doubt in my mind that she has one of the best voices in the industry … and with all her other talents in the entertainment business, the small blemishes she has (i.e. a rather larger nose than average – and Barbara, if you ever read this, i mean it in the nicest possible way lol) are sort of reassuring, showing us that there is no perfection on this planet…
WTG
{{{{{{{{{Dave}}}}}}}}} I’m gonna say Make It Like A Memory Babs errrrr Barbara Streisand
http://www.barbrastreisand.com/us/home
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbra_Streisand
I would say that that is a wise decision Cheryl. Barbara it is, and a nice pic you sent with your answer too … WTG
Make it Like a Memory
Barbra Streisand
completely correct, well done Brenda
STREISAND BARBRA: – Memory
as in Make It Like A …. you got it Lyle, WTG
This would be Barbra Streisand doing Make it Like a Memory. guess i have no memory of this song,
guess its time a jolt the very same then Scott… let me know if you remember it… WTG
I love Barbra Streisand…this is Make It Like A Memory.
hugs, Mike (mschoblue)
Understandibly … A lot of people do Mike. My dad (rest his soul) loved her, and my mother paid a fortune to see her live a couple of years ago…
I don’t think I would have paid that kind of money to see anybody though. I’m much happier with my local heroes I think, who offer better value for money. But that is unfortunately the way that the music business has developed.
Back to the subject. WTG!
LOL
Make It Like A Memory

Barbra Streisand w/ Barry Gibb
The insinuation behind that second pic …. you’re a bad man Pascale Severino roflmao
But you get a wtg anyway…
Babs from her Guilty days. “Make it like a memory” one of the Barry Gibb tunes. They did another album a few years ago, still good stuff. Streisand certainly has staying power. One of my favorite movies of hers was the one where she regressed into past lives – I can’t recall the title offhand but the song On a Clear Day was in it. Love that song.
Shar
I believe it was called “On A Clear Day YOu Can See Forever” Shar … also starring Yves Montand if I am not mistaken.
and yes, Barbara has been around for a while. And rightly so of course. There aren’t many female entertainers (if any) in her class
