I have just come across this beautiful performance, I cant help listening over and over to it, Bette sings these songs so beautifully and puts so much meaning into them, there is no one better to sing the ballads, her rendition of the Song of Bernadette is another one of my favourites, thank you Bette for the beautiful soul you are, there is no way you can sing these songs unless you have a truly beautiful soul within you, God Bless you Bette. Thank you Mr Reto 2812 for sharing this with us especially for those of uswho didnt get the chance to see Bette in Seattle in 1999 what a fantastic concert I have been lucky to see Bette LIVE over the past 3years but this again was one of her best and poignant concerts. So thank you again.
I have waited 17 years to her her version of this song again. Saw this in Portland and was so disappointed she did not record this and also There's Still My Joy on any CD. I am so thankful you have posted this for the world to hear.
What a gem this is!! I heard her perform this during this tour in 1999 in Los Angeles Staples Center, it was mesmerizing to hear the beautiful melody and lyrics contrasting with a very funny and profane and typical Bette banter before it. Beautiful song, great perfomer, the best live act I have ever seen.
I went down to Pontiac from Toronto to see this tour and this song was soooo good but has haunted some of us Betteheads ever since because the only good recordings of it have come in the last week or so after 15+ years. Thanks for posting this.
MrReto2812, thank you so very much for uploading this performance. I have loved "Mary" from the first time I listened to Miss M sing it some 15 years ago. This video brought tears to my years. If you have all of The Divine Miss Millennium Tour, please, upload it.
I love Bette Midler's rendition of this song. It's a wonderful cover of Patty Griffin's song from her album "Flaming Red". If you love the song, you'll love everything about Patty.
THANK YOU FOR FINDING AND POSTING THIS!!!! I have been looking for this music and everything about it for years - since I saw her sing it in concert at Mpls in this same dress!!
This is incredible!!! I have such fond memories of seeing this tour.. Seeing these Miss Millennium clips have made my year. I didn't think I'd ever see any of it again. Simply amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! My other memory was her rendition of "Sunrise, Sunset." I remember sitting there completely frozen. I only hope that one day, this (or a recording from any of the Millennium tour stops, for that matter) becomes available on DVD or blu-ray. I could watch this every day. It would be a huge shame if it didn't. Thank you so much for posting these clips!!!! I wish I could give back to you somehow!
What a great tune.. thanks for posting. Never heard this song until just recently. Does anyone else have trouble with the sound when played on Android devices? Thanks again!
Absolutely beautiful ❤
Bette, this is such a beautiful song, your voice is gorgeous on it,
Oh sooo beautiful, makes me cry, she is a wonderful lady, gorgeous Bette
The Devine Miss M, Love her...
I love her, she is a great lady and singer, this song is so amazing, makes me cry
So emotional omg 😢
Bette Does a great job of covering patty Griffin's song. It is a beautiful song.

Why this was never released as a single has always bewildered me. it is one of Bette's finest performances.
Should have been released on DVD. Miss M is in excellent form.

Better Midler such a beautiful woman...
What a great tune.. thanks for posting. Never heard this song until just recently. Does anyone else have trouble with the sound when played on Android devices? Thanks again!
Yes Why is this?
que hermosa voz por dios amo a bett midler la tengo en mi memoria con la pelicula the rose
I wonder why Bette had Judy Garland’s portrait removed from the Palace Theater’s lobby before she played there in the early 70s’
Maybe because her sister was killed was named after Judy Garland
Wow - never sent this!
I ask again why is the audio so bad if this clip is pulled up on a smartphone but not on a desktop computer?
Joan Baez also did a strong version of this song; both Better and Joan pick great songs.
What the hell happened to this audio? You can barely here it...it wasn't like this a few weeks ago it had good audio.
@kristooherwhite, I use my headphones & it's great
I'm looking for the song called rocket ride I believe, but don't know which album it's on? Help!!
She never recorded such a song. What else can you tell us about the song you're thinking of? Was it fast or slower, older or newer?
