    Growing up, money was tight so my parents owned a grand total of 12 LPs. One was the soundtrack to this play with Rex and Julie. Mom played it endlessly. I'm no expert but I so like this version and this person singing it. I disagree with the commentator who said she performed it like a dirge. Frankly, I like this interpretation way better than the endless bubbliness in the film version. Ms. Ambrose brought a longing to the song I hadn't realized could exist. A longing that such an experience would continue and not have this be the end.
    Bravo. Will listen again and again.

      Mark Marderosian: Your had the ORIGINAL BROADWAY CAST if Julie Andrews was included, OR, the ORIGINAL LONDON CAST (in stereo). The soundtrack with a few bits ‘n pieces of Audrey Hepburn had her vocals replaced by Marni Nixon and too well, but that was a production issue. Hearing Hepburn’s own vocals is interesting because she has more lift and personality. It’s not that Nixon was poor-of course not-but Warner Bros. didn’t put the work in behind the scenes that 20th Century Fox did when Nixon dubbed Deborah Kerr in THE KING AND I.

      Bartlett Sher knew. He was going to do Funny Girl with Lauren, but it fell through. Said that she was his Eliza all along despite many auditions. From Wikipedia: "A revival directed by Bartlett Sher had been announced to premiere at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles in January 2012[13] with Lauren Ambrose starring as Fanny Brice and Bobby Cannavale as Nicky Arnstein,[14] and then open on Broadway in April 2012.[15] However, on November 3, 2011, producer Bob Boyett announced that this production has been postponed. He said "We have made the extremely difficult decision today to postpone our production of Funny Girl." Long postponement.

The manufacturers of course comped the buyers and of course Broadway tickets were a big hit. So when I was six years old I got to see the original Broadway production with Julie Andrews and Rex Harrison. It's really become the soundtrack for my life!
