    I listen to this about 50 times. The musicians and the Fabulous Lena Horne are a force to be reckoned with in this video. I wish I could have been there to see this live. That Whoooo took me out!!!

    This is my favorite performance of hers of this song that I have seen. It tops her movie version, her Tony performance, and the CD recording of her Broadway show. IMO

    That's it, right there. The song has been sung, the message has been delivered. No need for anybody else to bother after that.
    Lena Horne, the voice and spirit of greatness.

    Chills. I really like this soprano like version of "Believe". I think Horne's wordy additions and top notes and accentuated phrasing really make you believe this is Glinda telling Dorothy something magical. aAout her heart and those shoes and more importantly herself.

    Showtime used to show Broadway shows all of the time in the early 80s. I'm not sure why the airing of Broadway shows on the channel stopped? Lena Horne's Broadway show was one of the shows that I would watch over and over again.

    Most of the performing girls artists are not giving life like this performance by the Legendary Ms Lena Horne. Not even the gospel singing girls!!! Pure Top Show Womanship. Sheeesh baby!!! The only one of our most current days that have given this kind of pure power and energy and emoting is The Legendary Ms Whitney Elizabeth Houston…Sheeeesh after watching that performance I definitely believe in myself even the more! Ase’ to the Ancestor Ms Lena Horne Ase’ Ase’ 🎶💖✨✊🏿✨👑✨♾️✨🙏🏿✨

Unfortunately they probably are just racist against this groundbreaking and supremely talented being. Look up her last live performance on the Rosie I Donnell show. She tears up Stormy Weather in her 80s

    Si vous croyez dans votre cœur, vous saurez
    Que nul ne peut changer
    Le chemin que vous devez aller
    Croyez ce que vous vous sentez
    Et savez que vous êtes l'homme parce que
    Le temps viendra autour
    Lorsque vous dites qu'il est le vôtre
    Croyez que vous pouvez rentrer à la maison
    Croyez vous pouvez flotter dans l'air
    Oui, cliquez sur vos talons trois fois
    Si vous croyez
    Oh, alors vous serez là
    Voilà pourquoi je vous veux
    Croyez en vous, oui
    Depuis le début
    Vous devez croire, croire à la magie
    Juste là dans votre cœur
    Allez-y croire toutes ces choses
    Pas parce que je vous ai dit de, pas
    Croyez en vous
