The Barbra Streisand song you're thinking about right now thread
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Can't find a link to it, but her new thing with her younger sister Barbara Streisland, 'For Lovers Only: A Tribute to Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music', is great and side/movement 4 is totally rad. Especially the locked groove at the end when Babs hits that high C note.

I listen to this song every time the cops come to my house because I casually mentioned to the neighbors that I'm deep-cleaning dried bodily fluids from the freezer in the secret underground annex to my backyard toolshed again. I like this song best because she doesn't sing and there's no music.

Funnily enough I've heard Woman In Love twice this week after not hearing it for years. It is pretty awesome.

I don't like her voice much, but Hello Dolly and the Kenny Rogers duet are fine. My wife's a fan.
Re: The Barbra Streisand song you're thinking about right now thread
I love "Enough is Enough" - her duet with Donna Summer. That's about it.

Especially the locked groove at the end when Babs hits that high C note.

What? You don't like it? Sure, Babs seems a bit out of place sometimes, but her sis Barbara Streisland is all over it. Very poignant stuff.Marky Dread wrote: ↑02 Nov 2017, 11:17pmThis is the biggest pile of crap I've ever heard.

Well of course Streisland is good but not a patch On her cousin Barbara Streisand. She has a voice like gravel thrown on top of tarmac. Makes Tom Waits sound like Karen Carpenter.muppet hi fi wrote: ↑02 Nov 2017, 11:27pmWhat? You don't like it?

Re: The Barbra Streisand song you're thinking about right now thread
Exactly, and that's what I love about cousin Barbara - so different from Barbara Streisland and her massive screech - so fitting for the album - and Babs' sensual bombastic shrieking. Gotta have those counterpoint tonalities going on in a project like this.Marky Dread wrote: ↑02 Nov 2017, 11:30pmWell of course Streisland is good but not a patch On her cousin Barbara Streisand.
