Barbra Streisand - Someone To Watch Over Me Lyrics
Looking everywhere haven't found him yet
He's the big affair, I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret...
There's a somebody I'm longing to see,
I hope that he turns out to be
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me
Although he may not be the man
Some girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key,
Hmm...
Please, put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me...

Barbra Streisand Someone To Watch Over Me Comments
We can't ever hope to fully understand truly unique and gifted people. They channel their talent given to them by God. They will tell you they don't fully understand it themselves. They just allow it to come through. Barbra is such a person and artist. Despite the emotional deprivation of her childhood, she has somehow managed to avoid many of the pitfalls of fame and success such as multiple marriages, bankruptcies, addiction, and even death. I think she has the finest singing voice at least in the second half of the 20th Century and beyond.
this is the version i prefer. Shes strepitosa!!!
Awesome 😍🥰😍🥰😍
Straight from my heart💖
Perfection all the way
a perfectly tuned instrument. absolutely perfect.
Mr. Gershwin was a genius. Love this song!!!!
profoundly romantic version
the best
She has such a beautiful voice
Looking everywhere haven't found him yet
He's the big affair, I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
There's a somebody I'm longing to see,
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone to watch over me
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the world
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me
Although he may not be the man
Some girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key, humm
Won't you tell him, please, to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
BIG Gershwin into Barbra very beautiful
What a voice. And what a song. One for the archives.
What a voice. Prime.
Babs!!! Still, got it.
I love Barbra … silky, lovely voice.
What a voice. That's all.
C est celle qui le chante le mieux l emotion la technique sans trop en faire je la preferen un miliard de fois à Céline Dion qui est trop technique et sans une âme comme celle de Barbara.sophie pianiste de jazz et chanteuse
This beautiful song and the accompanying video pictures are somewhat out of sync with each other. The song is soft and flowing, the pictures change in an abrupt and 'harsh' way, instead of softly blurring from one picture into the next.
Beautiful song, thank you.
No Julie Andrews' world class diction.
Barbra is an unconventional beauty.
Suffering. Trapped. The prisoner as titles,IMF
Ella 's version is the best and most effortless interpretation of this song.
Sarah Vaughn! Forget Ella!
Un deleite para los oídos !!! Barbra, mi respeto por siempre !!!
Ouch. Give me Ronstadt's on this tune much more important. Warmth and ...
Her voice is truly a gift from God!
i love her choices. she's perfection.
Compared to Amy Winehouse this is whitebread.
somehow I don't dig that new-york ish sinatra style of 'weird timing'
Fabulousoooo
I like Barbra, but not this version she did... sorry for the die hard fans out there...
Her singing soars and so effortlessly.
A true mark of a talented singer, there are few.
Ouch. Give me Ronstadt. Barbra was a great singer but no warmth on this one.
A voice for the Ages! She could sing a grocery list, and it would be poetry for the ears!
In looks, Amy Winehouse resembles her. But Barbra is one and only, one of a kind, one of the greats, if not the greatest.
That is not a voice, it's a musical instrument.
i thought she left the country.
No such luck............
I love this song and this version is just wonderful
Love the modulation that provides a sudden secondary harmonic turn (2:17) with a quick melodic resolve thereafter. Barbra has always been the consummate genuine article. It is nice to hear her on this one while she is still "prime". She has aged like a fine wine enjoyable even until this day.. I love her voice no matter the date of the recording. I hope she is full of the appreciation of life in general and her gift in particular this very day. Thank you for your work, Barbara.
pure magic
PERFECTION! WHAT A GREAT LEGEND.
The real deal.
She did it ¡again! Another song ruined by Babs. Better is Ella and Amy and so on... And Lady Gaga as well.
i kinda agree with you but she did have a beautiful voice everything really affected tho.
Her voice is so beautiful though! I like Ella's phrasing best though.
Go get your ears checked....
Flying Mondongo if I was as musically ignorant as you are...I would stay quiet!
You don't half spout some shite!
Beautiful Barbara :-)
Our father says that Hebrew people have the same heart. I don't know if I understand what all he means by that but I'll take his word for it. He wants the best for us.
once again let me have that feeling inside that best friends have, when they know they have each other's backs no matter what that absolute trust that we don't have to second guess. I am sorry for my part in our disagreements. I feel overwhelmed most of the time and I need your friendship. Maybe I need your Hebrew friendship.
Barbra keep me in your prayers and hope there is a right way out of Rod and me. You know that I love him. I've really missed you. Your music meant so much to me for most of my life you were my favorite. Let our friendship be healed and
There are good singers and there are the greats. Streisand is one of the greats.
There is absolutely NO ONE alive with a better singing voice
+Maxharddrive64 AMEN!
Bull Shit.
KD Lang is amazing too, but yeah, you can't beat Barbra. In fact, I don't know who is better of all time out of Ella Fitzgerald or Barbra. I love those pure voices.
This is my mother's favorite song- -Barbra Streisand sings it so beautifully!
Absolutely beautiful!
-- the more i listen to her, the more i appreciate how supremely talented she really is -- watch and listen to her duet with judy garland, back when she was just starting out -- she was wonderful from the very beginning --
@bostondad406 Yes, certainly one of the best. I used to listen to her a lot. To bad her dementia spilled over into politics.
@Ken Hilderbrand the worst kind of citizen is politically apathetic -- we should all be informed, caring citizens, doing what we think is best to make the country better -- kudos to her for doing that -- work for what you believe in -
Simply tehe best!
Great song and the best female singer to perform it with her special interpretations.
Barbra is an excellent singer, one of the best of all time, but I would argue that the versions by Ella Fitzgerald, Keely Smith, Joni James, and Linda Ronstadt are equally excellent.
I concur. However, Barbara' s voice which
has that unique nasal quality and vocal
range, just makes her style and interpretative
qualities very special, if you are a Streisand
fan.
@SuperCarver2011
I am a Streisand fan and have loved her version ever since I first heard it. The My Name is Barbra albums are classics.
+catman916 and Sarah Vaughan, the best in my opinion.
Amy Winehouses version beats this by far and even though I love frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald and Babara, Amy's version is a lot better and jazzier.
Barbara, simply the very best for so many years. Sophistication that enters every cell of your body.
What a golden voice.
Love you Barbara.
WOW, amazing intro
technically stunning, gorgeous interpretation. think it lacks a little soul though (eg too technical)
from Jose' Sepulveda....The Kid From L. A.............My word, she is beautiful......a unique, marvellous, special kind of beauty.......and, of course, THAT VOICE.........
from Jose' Sepulveda......positively orgasmic......
from Jose' Sepulveda......my other favorite lady singer, Ella Fitzgerald, said Barbra is one of a tiny handful of singers she would pay to go see...
Both are among the great female singers.
from Jose' "Timo" Sepulveda........Barbra is other-worldly......she OWNS every song she sings........SPECTACULAR,,,
Well, my mother also sings it beautiful but Barbra's version is out of this world, meaning TERRIFIC.
Look up the version by "Jenna Anne" IT IS ASTOUNDING!
rondstats best
Its not just her voice - somehow she manages to squeeze her entire personality into everything she does. Totally brilliant. There is only one Barbara!
When you walked down the stares at the opening of the arts sentor in Otowa in1967 you looked like a goddes and it scared me that you may trip over my lighting cables but like a true LADY you handle it well xx
I wish I could of lived in that time when music was simply beautiful!!
This Song This Woman= Brilliant
0:05 oh dear !!
As long as she's singing or acting she makes me happy.
There have been some other terrific recordings of this marvelous song, including those of Frank Sinatra, Keely Smith, Ella Fitzgerald, Joni James, and Linda Ronstadt. Jean Louisa Kelly's version is among them.
I like Jean Louisa Kelly's version better.
shiver...
Uma maravilhosa melodia inesquecivel, na voz da melhor cantora americana.É um delirio.
adorei. Mira
If only my voice was like hers [or comes even close to hers], then I'd be on Broadway by now!:P
A lot of the artists today, thought they do sound rather good, close your eyes & you won't be able to tell them from the next one. But Ms. Barbra Streisand's vocal styling's only one & the same... Simply AMAZING<3^_^!!!
Very well said^_^!
I am so happy to have lived through the greatest decades of the greatest music and singers ever. The 40's , 50' and 60's.
Clasica - bellisima!
Elvis was a pedophile ... what did she say about him?
Who cares? This is about the singing here. Keep your or her politics out of it!
Yes, entertainers' political opinions and observations are usually liberally wacko because they're aren't grounded in reality like ordinary people. They usually are poseurs for the poor and downtrodden, but they wouldn't give them a dime unless a tax credit were involved.
WHAT A GREAT SINGER BUT I DONT AGREE WITH HER POLITICS
I have just always thought she is such and incredibly beautiful woman!
The only Singer that can sing "Silent Night" with feeling. Interesting
because she's Jewish. LV the Barbara
You should sing for me.
Mitt i allt så är världen vackrare med dej
@claretothe10th Yes, it's from The Way We Were.
the picture of her and Robert Redford together, is that from a movie?
never liked her politics , or attitude toward elvis , but i love this ,very perfect!
