Whom would you rather hear sing?

Poll question: Whom would you rather hear sing?

Tough choice.

1. Streisand. She just has the better voice, IMO.

But it is tough to choose.

5. I hate to say this but I disagree.

I think Bette's voice is better. Don't get me wrong; I adore Barbra. I'd just rather listen to Bette. :shrug:

:hi:

8. No problem, Bertha!

This question is purely subjective. *I* think Streisand has a better voice...she's done Broadway, almost all kinds of musical genres. Streisand just has a more...accomplished voice, I guess. But again...it's purely subjective. It IS a difficult choice. :-)

6. I agree!!!!!!

9. Yeah, Terry, But That Style!!! Eeep!

It's like fingers on a chalkboard. All that breathless pumping of the words, and forced vibrato. It's like taking the world's best violin and playing it with a hammer. She has wonderful pipes, but how can you listen to the WAY she sings? It's all so artificial sounding!

2. Wouldn't it be great

to hear them sing together.

[Bertha Venation]

7. Heck, yeah!

Imagine these folks all doing a show together:

Bette
Barbra
Julie Andrews
Carol Burnett

. . . who else?

3. I'd take Bette singing Rose's Turn from Gypsy over anything Barbra

4. I prefer Bette Midler all around as a singer, person etc.

she is a hoot. :thumbsup:

10. I love Streisand's politics but I have to admit I have never liked

her singing.

11. I voted Bette - BUT!

My favorite is hearing my wife sing in the shower - preferably whilst we're washing each other's parts. I admit it. I'm just a dirty, semi-old man.

Hiya Bertha!
