Barbra Streisand & Guillaume Côté – “On A Clear Day (You Can See Forever)”
My director for the production of A Chorus Line I’m currently working on sent this to me.
We are both Barbra Streisand fans. And, as we are working on a “dance show,” both fans of dancers.
Set to Barbra Streisand’s recording of “On A Clear Day,” dancer/choreographer Guillaume Côté is spectacular here. The music, the movement, all exquisite.
Interestingly, I found that the video was originally created as a clip called “Lost In Motion” with different music. But the exact same footage, edited exactly as you see below. Amazing how the same video fits so beautifully with Barbra’s recording.
My associate choreographer Kat Murphy was here when I first watched it and we screamed over Guillaume’s feet, turns, strength… Everything.
Wow.
Happy birthday gorgeous! Barbra Streisand is 72 today!
It’s hard not to be awed by Barbra Joan Streisand’s talent, drive and achievements. I’ve been a fan as far back as I can remember.
In her first 72 years on the planet, Barbra has won two Academy Awards, eight Grammy Awards, five Emmy Awards including one Daytime Emmy, a Special Tony Award, an American Film Institute award, a Kennedy Center Honors award, a Peabody Award, and is one of the few entertainers who have won an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award.
She is one of the best selling female artists of all time, with more than 145 million records sold worldwide. She is the best-selling female artist on the Recording Industry Association of America’s (RIAA) Top Selling Album Artists list, the only female recording artist in the top ten, and the only artist outside of the rock and roll genre.
I wanted to post something to enjoy of hers, so below is Babs’ entire “One Voice” concert – a benefit concert at her Malibu, California home on September 6, 1986.
What a great star. What a great talent. Happy birthday Barbra Joan!

Heartbreak leads to world travel for Morgan Reynolds
What do you do when you find a long-term romance has ended?
Well, Morgan Reynolds took a musical trip around the world singing Barbra Streisand.
Watch Morgan as he hits five countries and 20 locations singing “Don’t Rain On My Parade.” I’ve gotta say, it’s really well shot. Some great angles and framing of the international landmarks he hit.
