On March 21, 1965, that is 47 years ago, Barbra Streisand filmed the Bergdorf Goodman
fashion sequence for her first TV special MY NAME IS BARBRA. Here is a tribute to that
great TV special and the famous fashion sequence.
I have always wondered what if other songs were used in that sequence. What songs
from Barbra's vast repertoire could be used. So here I chose a few of my favorites:
1) I'm Late ( from the TV special MY NAME IS BARBRA)
Sammy Fain, music and Bob Hillard, lyrics. Originally from the Walt Disney Film
Alice in Wonderland ( 1951).
2) SMALL WORLD from the Color Me Barbra special ( 1966) Music by Jule Styne and
Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Originally from the Broadway musical GYPSY ( 1959)
and will be used in the forthcoming film GYPSY starring Barbra Streisand.
3) TRY TO REMEMBER from the Color Me Barbra special (1966) Music by Harvey
Schmidt and lyrics by Tom Jones. Originally from the Off Off Broadway show THE
FANTASTICKS ( 1960 ).
4) THE WAY WE WERE ( Love theme) Music by Marvin Hamlisch,
Lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman ( from the 1973 film)
5) SING ( Sing a Song) composer: Joe Raposo from the TV show
SESAME STREET.
6) I'VE GOT NO STRINGS music: Leigh Harline Lyrics: Ned Washington. From the Walt Disney film PINOCCHIO (1940)
from the Lp: My Name is Barbra ( 1965)
arranged and conducted by Peter Matz

As per your requests, here are the lyrics:

I'm late, I'm late
For a very important date,
No time to say hello,
Goodbye, I'm late, I'm late
I'm late, I'm late .
And when I wave I lose all the time I save.
My fuzzy ears and whiskers took me
too much time to shave.

I run and then I hop, hop, hop,
I wish that I could fly.
There's danger if I dare to stop
and here's the reason why.

I'm late, late, late, late, late...I run and then I hop, hop, hop,I wish that I could fly.there's danger if I stop, stop, stop and here is the reason why.You see, I'm overdue.I'm in a kinda rabbit stew,Can't even say goodbye, hello, I'm late.

I'm late, i'm late
I'd love to stop and chatter,
But i don't have a minute
I must meet with the mad hatter.
The mad, mad, mad, mad hatter.
We must chatter about a very important matter.

We have so much in common
It's a phenomenon
We could pull our resources by joining forces
From now on...

Try to remember
And if you remember
Then follow, follow, follow follow...

Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me
Would we?
Could we?

Sing, sing a song
Sing out loud, sing out strong
Sing of good things, not bad
Sing of happy, not sad
Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that
It's not good enough
For anyone else to hear
Just sing, sing a song
La la la la...

La la la la...
Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that
It's not good enough
For anyone else to hear
You just
Sing your song
La la la la...

I've got no strings to hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings but now I'm free
There are no strings on me
I've got no strings so I have fun
I'm not tied to anyone
How I love my liberty, there are no strings on me!
Hi-ho the me-ri-o, I'm as happy as can be
I want the world to know nothing ever worries me
I've got no strings to hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings but now I'm free
There are no strings on me

I've got no strings and I'm so glad
No strings at all to make me sad
I had strings but now I'm free,
There are no strings on me
Oh, hi-ho, the way we go
I'm as happy as can be
I want the world to know nothing ever worries me!
I've got no strings so I have fun
I'm not tied up to anyone
How I love my liberty, there are no strings on me!
No ties to bind me, it's not easy to find me,
'Cause I've got no strings on me!

"Barbra remembers in Just For The Record: "'Second Hand Rose' became part of a tongue-in-cheek fantasy sequence which was shot at Bergdorf Goodman's...And thanks to people I loved and loved working with—Joe Layton, Dwight Hemion, Peter Matz, Robert Emmett, Tom John, and, of course, Marty—I was able to realize my dream."

Happy Birthday Barbra 70 years young on April 24th

I watched this video on the new Ipad at the Apple Store, and I was amazed at how well
it looks, in glorious black and white. Steve Jobs was really a genius in designing such
a sophisticated tablet. the New Ipad
