In a rare interview on the eve of a new album, control-freak BarbraStreisand reveals something that recently occurred to her. |EXCLUSIVE by mdwriterguy

There’s no singing in Barbra Streisand’s house. “I never sing at home. I certainly don’t sing in the shower. I just don’t do that,” she says in that blunt Brooklyn cadence that invites no discussion. Factor in a stay-at-home pandemic and it’s kind of shocking to realise one of the most extraordinary assets in showbiz has been laying utterly silent for the best part of three years.

“He sent me a new track, in three different keys,” Streisand says. “But I never had the time or interest to sing along with them.” Without being able to book an orchestra, what was the point?

But “people weren’t interested in how I felt”.

“I’ve always kept my things,” she says. “I would keep track of the tapes that weren’t used. I kept track of some of my movies, the deleted scenes. And they come in handy.” Take. “I had final cut, which was so unusual at the time, 1976. So I could play around with the movie.” As executive producer, “I controlled that movie,” she reminds me.
