 It's her only recording that I ever liked.
She would ONLY be photographed on her "Good Side."
If only she had one.

 The only song performed by Streisand that I ever liked was "Send In the Clowns"....... But even with that song, I thought it was bettered by other singers......

 according to Bacharach.. This video is from his TV special in the 70's in which Barbra was a featured guest.... I guess he liked her interpretation well enough to include it in the special.. And yes, I do love Marilyn McCoo's version with The Fifth Dimension otherwise I would not have gone to see her live a couple of times in concert with her husband Billy....
