A performance of "With One Look" from Sunset Boulevard, by Betty Buckley on The Rosie O'Donnell Show, July 19, 1997. Like my clips?? Check out my radio station, Sho-Toonz, at www.live365.com/stations/mr_bu...
Betty Buckley was also the best actress on eight is enough. As genuine as can be. She kept that cast together. Pure humility and extraordinary talent!!!
Agreed. I get it’s a jazzier arrangement, but between 2:27 and 2:33 he plays 4 or 5 obviously wrong notes. You can even see in his face that he knows they’re mistakes. No tea, no shade, he’s a great pianist and Betty’s longtime accompanist. But this version was not great.
bootsamou She also played Carrie’s mother, Margaret White, in the 1988 musical adaption of CARRIE. The show was produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company (their first musical since “Les Miserables” and their last until “Matilda”) It closed after 8 performances and was Broadway’s biggest flop.
Streisand had the absolute and the very greatest advantage of not singing this song live in a performance but all of the many advantages technically of a recording studio.
@@SamuelM.-iz1un I agree with you. However, I do not recall when Barbra sang this song live. Barbra did sing live "As if We Never Said Goodbye" live in her to concerts. Please do not misconstrue my comment. I am and have always been a big Streisand fan for many years. Barbra does do a very great version of this song which is one of my very favorites!
I'm a super huge fan of Betty Buckley but I did not like the arrangement at this music at all. There's something to be said for just leaving an original piece of music alone and not trying to play with it and make it somehow unusual or different. Andrew Lloyd Webber's music doesn't need to be enhanced or toyed with even for effect.
Fair interpretation by Buckley, although she’s fine better. The dreadful, tuneless accompaniment otherwise ruins the number. All in all, a mess. Bummer waste of air time.
