I saw her during this tour. Hollywood amphitheater. My 16th birthday. My mom got me and my younger stepsister a white stretch limo from Oxnard to Hollywood. I hung around the back door and got in to meet her. I was 16 and it was the best 10 moments of my life.
It is so nice to listen to someone that could actually sing this song, Bernadette Peters pulls this song off filling the complete level. She plays the role so extremely well, and can actually sing as well!!! Love her!!!!
I saw Bernadette Peters in Gypsy as the mother about 10 or 12 years ago. She was the hardest working person I have ever seen. She gave it her all. Worked her rear off. Love her. Might I say also, Good Lord! That dress! Wow! Talented woman, but I'm drooling just looking at that.
She's the most talented person in brodway history she's really interested in her role as seen in manny of her live performances and especially in her album performances as well gosh dang I wish she was more well known I feel like if anyone's to get into musicals people should go to her cause hot damn not only is she really hot and beautiful but she knows what she's doing and she's really talented and her voice oh la la it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and also of course her role as rita in animaniacs was how I found out about her musical style as well as her vocal range as well annyways before the new year is dawned upon us I I thought now before i forget to do it I thought now would be a good time to go over my favorite songs from this year that I've listened to also it changes a lot and especially now since I've I've dedicated my life to only listening to rock sugar as well as Bernadette peters herself witch is what I'm doing right now lol anyways though in terms of actual music that's all that I'm listening to it will probably not change annyways for the other stuff I've been listening to those count for all the incarnations of the various different scooby doo theme songs as well as thier respective ending credits as well then almost every single song from animaniacs manly the ones that the warners and rita and runt sing that is anyways next is where the boys are sung by the talented fifi la fume and whoah man listening to that song for the frist time in over quite some time now it officially brought back some happy memories of when I frsit laid eyes on her in 2015 witch is also when I frist listened to that song as well I believed that's right dont rember what month or date I specifically listened to it I I remember is that I listened to it in that year annyways though listening to it now in 2020 brought back a lot of precious memories of fifi annyways moving on also all the songs from wakkos wish are catchy as well annyways then my last and final thing of songs that are my favorites from this year are from sesame street now these ones I've narrowed it down a bit becuase for this list I've only listened to the songs that characters like cookie monster elmo bert erine grover big brid zoe sniffy rosita parie dawn abby cadabby and the oinker sisters sing just to name a few also the list does not contain anny of kermits songs from the show I know that sounds harsh but hey that's my opinion so either deal with it or not annyways though one last song that I remember listening to way back when as a yingling was Hawaiian war chant from the enchanted tiki room as well as a bunch of other songs from that attraction annyways though when I listened to Hawaiian war chant I was like oh I rember listening to this when I was younger and I had no I idea that was an actual song in real life as well annyways brought back some memories as well annyways stay tuned because you never know when I'm going to update this list most of it will change but a lot of it will still stay the same becuase why change the stuff that's been already well established as being my favorite songs from this year
@@wickedfan811 It's too bad your comment can only be read if someone clicks on the 'reply'. Because up until I did that I was believing she was 60 based on the previous comment. So I can imagine how many other people are gonna read the "60" comment and move on without getting your clarification. Oh, I know what I'll do! I'll post a general comment about her age so people can see it readily.
I am a HUGE fan of both Sutton Foster and Bernadette Peters and they are both amazing and totally incomparable with each other! They are so different and both INSANELY talented!! If you want to say that one of the most famous Broadway veterans in history has no talent, go ahead, but nobody is going to like what you say... Go Sutton and Bernadette!!
Papa is... God? WHERE DID THAT VOICE COME FROM? So, so powerful. Her voice is crystal clear and demands attention of both the ears and the eyes. Thanks for posting!
I saw Bernadette in the ANNIE GET YOUR GUN revival in 1999. What a thrill to see her in a show and not on a TV screen. She never ages, and her voice keeps its power. She’s always perfect and amazing.
I'd be afraid I'd end up giving a free show, lol! She is the ONE AND ONLY Mama Rose!! The best Broadway has ever seen...and that goes for any role she's ever played. I met with her last year, and she is the sweetest, kindest person! The reigning Queen of Broadway!
I agree. Without getting nasty (since I know so many people love her) suffice it to say that no one is more impressed with Patti LuPone than Patti LuPone... and yes people, I do know her personally. Bernadette is a goddess.
@Divinedancedivas I personally think this performance is amazing (however, I loved Peters' interpretation of Rose). She absolutely commands this stage & makes the song her own. Even though she'd yet to play the character, she's totally immersed in it here. That's one of the many things I love about Peters: she totally gives herself over to the song & music, whatever the role. But, I will always be captivated by Peters' appearance, because I think she is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.
haha wow it looks like she almost forgets to sing into the mic when she sings "Goodbye to blueberry pie!" haha but that's how you know she's really into it! She just wants to throw out her arms and sing!!! AAAH I LOVE HER SO MUCH!
Patti, Ethel, Bette and all the rest of 'em can belt their faces off all they want, but no one does Mama Rose like Bernadette. She made the character SO human and real, when all of the others made some campy, over-the-top cartoon of her.
@HuckHuck96 I agree, you cannot deny talent. And she undeniably has that with charisma to burn. But even then, in my personal opinion, had her performance been as arresting as this song requires, no one would have noticed her dress. But you can tell from the performance that she has connected and communicated with her audience which is what really matters. I am not a huge fan of this particular interpretation sadly, even when I hear it without looking at the screen. But she is great.
I felt it was too upbeat at certain points compared to some of her other performances of it. However, she has the ability to do differently and still be awesome all the time!
No she doesn't, her hair looks like Merida's but her face body, and everything else not so much. But, I'm guessing, if your saying that, that you don't even know who she is. BTW she is a musical theater goddess, don't demean her by saying she looks like Merida, if ANYTHING Merida looks like her.
@@TimothyRobert93 Omg why the fuck are you being so defensive? Merida is an animated character and a GREAT animated character if you will. She looks realistic and has signature curly red hair.....that's what the person likened to Bernadette. Do you have a personal problem with Merida? Cuz if you have a grudge with an animated character believe me you're fucking pathetic lol
i saw both and wow they were so different it's hard to compare, i personally like patti's more but BP's was fab!!!! but they did kind of almost play 2 different characters...
BP fans are probably gonna roast me for this, but when most comments are about her appearance, specially in this powerhouse of a song, you just know the work itself is not gripping enough. Powerful voice, super talented woman, some lovely moments in the song ,but just did not have me at the edge of my seat and I really wanted to be! Somehow she just does not bring the emotional range that is required for this song.She does not make the material personal and immeadiate, its just a cover for her.
Bernadette Peters traded her soul to Sondheim for eternal youth.
That's a good deal if I ever heard one!
What?
True
I feel like he gladly gave her his youth lol

"actually"
That dress sure adds an element of suspense.
If anyone is wondering... Bernadette is 50 here. This is in 1998. But posted on UA-cam in 2008.
This song suits her voice so perfectly!!!
I saw Bernadette Peters in Gypsy as the mother about 10 or 12 years ago. She was the hardest working person I have ever seen. She gave it her all. Worked her rear off. Love her.

If I was told she was actually in her 20's, I'd believe it.
She's amazing and eternally youthful.

Unbelievable voice. Impossible to believe that she's 60 in this video, and almost 70 now.
Actually, in this video, she's 50.

I love how when the orchestra starts shes in character the walk chances its fanastic

My goodness, how she kept her chest from flying out of that dress! Bernadette is a legend.
I was really surprised when I found out that She turned sixty this year.Yet She is still just as brilliant.
Dude I want her dress! It's gorgeous.
So is her voice :D
Her presence on stage is remarkable
She's such a queen!
Tearing the stage uppp
She is adorable. Also a goddess.
What a great performance.....if not the best out there for this difficult number that takes a lot of talent and energy.
In that Dress? She didn't need his 88 cents! Bernadette Peters made her own way her style on her merits Bravo for her!
Papa is... God? WHERE DID THAT VOICE COME FROM?
So, so powerful. Her voice is crystal clear and demands attention of both the ears and the eyes.
Thanks for posting!
I saw her do Gypsy on Broadway. It was wonderful.

She never ages, and her voice keeps its power. She’s always perfect and amazing.
Is there a more talented woman in show bus than this lovely gal? Help me out here cause I can't think of any. I just love her so damn much.

Bernadette.... Stand Still !!!
She's so cute
One word.
VaVaVOOOOOM, lady is lovely beyond words.
Flawless!
Eternal material too.⭐️⭐️
What a gorgeous woman !
Why some people just love Bernadette Peter
O! She is just perfect!
PERFECTION
"I was just so busy with El Nino."
Makes me laugh every time. :P
haha wow it looks like she almost forgets to sing into the mic when she sings "Goodbye to blueberry pie!" haha but that's how you know she's really into it! She just wants to throw out her arms and sing!!! AAAH I LOVE HER SO MUCH!
She is so beautiful
SUCH TALENTED WOMEN!
my hero
I don't know why we can't praise Bernadette while putting down other amazing female performers.
Goosebumps.
Great performance.
Homer
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH I just love her!!
killed it!!!!
BRILLIANT.
LOVE!!!!!!
She's so damn amazing.. :L
Bravo, magnifique, bravo, bravo!
No one sang it better than Liza in her prime. And Liza's "Rose's turn" is the best. Liza would have great as Rose.
2:46 I love how the volume of her voice dips there as if the character is saying something hush hush.
bernadette's hair flip makes me giggle =]
... living legend... 🤯😱🎭♥️♥️🍀🖐️🤞🙌🎶👑🌹🌹🌹🌹🌟🌟🥰
Oh..my... Thats amazing. Thats amazing... What else can I say?!
Great
Just...
...just all kinds of "damn".
LOVE HER!
"You ain't gettin' 88 cents, Rose?"
My response to that would've been, "Lord?"
Patti, Ethel, Bette and all the rest of 'em can belt their faces off all they want, but no one does Mama Rose like Bernadette. She made the character SO human and real, when all of the others made some campy, over-the-top cartoon of her.
@CaliCaliente00 She was only in her 40's in this! This was 1998 :P
❤❤ ❤❤❤❤
and then she went to be in gypsy as rose lol
That made ypu laugh out loud?

very great
Fab! Watch her march!
id go straight for you Ms Peters
Why 21 people doesn't like this?? What's happening with your ears??
lol. That's funny. I have the concert tape and never even thought of that.
Sher's perfect!
It's spelled Cher, and this is Bernadette Peters. Come on, pay attention.
I felt it was too upbeat at certain points compared to some of her other performances of it. However, she has the ability to do differently and still be awesome all the time!
+Molly C. She emoted the full diaipason of emotions of this song. A tour de force triumph.
JudgeJulieLit I completely agree. I've listened many times to her soundtracks, so that statement about tempo/beat is biased.
Does anyone know when whether there will be any more concerts in England?
I would love to see her...
She is just amazing!
XD she looks like merida from brave
No she doesn't, her hair looks like Merida's but her face body, and everything else not so much. But, I'm guessing, if your saying that, that you don't even know who she is. BTW she is a musical theater goddess, don't demean her by saying she looks like Merida, if ANYTHING Merida looks like her.
Timothy Robert Jeez chill I wasn't attacking her. I know who she is, her voice is beautiful, I hardly think I'm demeaning her though.
Ironically the character of Mother Gothel from Tangled is more or less based on Bernadette's performance as the Witch in Into the Woods
@@TimothyRobert93
Omg why the fuck are you being so defensive? Merida is an animated character and a GREAT animated character if you will. She looks realistic and has signature curly red hair.....that's what the person likened to Bernadette. Do you have a personal problem with Merida? Cuz if you have a grudge with an animated character believe me you're fucking pathetic lol
for loop purposes, song starts at 1:16
ME TOO!!!
What a wardrobe but amazing performance by Bernie P!
i saw both and wow they were so different it's hard to compare, i personally like patti's more but BP's was fab!!!! but they did kind of almost play 2 different characters...
Whow.
Omg, I can't believe she was almost 60 in this 0___0
one word Berna
CLEAVAGE!!!
but other than that she was great!
I just died. Died.
@boynamedalexxx That's wonderful. You are getting more bang for your buck, which is great. :)
How does she do it?
Way better than Patti by far. Geez, Patti assulted my ears.
BP fans are probably gonna roast me for this, but when most comments are about her appearance, specially in this powerhouse of a song, you just know the work itself is not gripping enough. Powerful voice, super talented woman, some lovely moments in the song ,but just did not have me at the edge of my seat and I really wanted to be! Somehow she just does not bring the emotional range that is required for this song.She does not make the material personal and immeadiate, its just a cover for her.
If I wanted to sing 16 bars of this song, how long (minute-wise), would that be?
agreed! far more talent in her pinky than all of them put together... better looking too.
I rate her 35C. Terrific.
I love GAGA, but I agree :-)
