llw40, Hard work is indeed not the answer. Once I said: "I'm bending over backwards to make this work" and he said "That's just it: you shouldn't have to."
In short, I join you in remembering heartbreak such as expressed so well in this song. Sometimes we doubt whether it really is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
But it IS better. Trust me. Some people never experience anything so wonderful - they haven't really lived.
what I love about ... ( 5 months ago by phillieboy)
what I love about Glynis is that she is not the BEST singer.. it's there... but she is the only one in my opinion who actually feels the song, and knows exactally what she is singing about. PHENMINAL performance. makes me cry everytime I watch this.

Did Glynis play Mrs Banks (Votes for Women) In Mary Poppins ?

In the actual musical, does the whole part with Desiree and Fredrik singing the song back and forth take place? Because I don't remember seeing that in other versions, but that's just me.

I like to think of it as having an "actor's voice", being able to act through a song and fully express its emotional and dramatic ramifications even with a less trained voice.
It's no wonder ... ( 4 months ago by bohemiawelcumsyou)
It's no wonder these two were chosen for the OBC. Len Cariou makes acting and singing seem as easy as breathing, and Glynis Johns is fantastic. It took me a while to get used to her subtle touch to SITC after having seen Glenn and Barbra do it, but I really like it now.
Thanks for posting
I really want to ... ( 3 months ago by 6funswede)
I really want to say a heartfelt thank you so much for sharing this with me. How can anyone not love it? I bow my head in respect for Sondheim, and sincerely agree that Glynis Johns feels this song. Please, please, keep this song in here.
I cannot agree with ... ( 3 months ago by leejohnson569)
I cannot agree with anyone more so than 6funswede. I really only know Glynis Johns from Mary Poppins but I was aware that she once performed on A Little Night Music. I know that people will never really praise Johns for her singing talent but this is real, raw and truly heartfelt. Truly magnificent. As 6funswede says please please please keep this on here.

oh i like this - she's feeling that song.
Not as deeply as dear Dame Judi but with a bit more bitterness.

You know Glynis originated this role. . . it is said that Sondheim created it for her.

Glynis' version of the song is Sondheim's favorite.
Some of the ... ( 2 months ago by bastablejc)
Some of the greatest performers in history had a magic that you had to see in person. People like Al Jolson, Gertrude Lawrence, Fanny Brice-- on record, they leave us scratching our heads, but to have seen them in person is to have understood and have been enchanted forever.
I saw this version ... ( 2 months ago by Natels)
I saw this version on Broadway in 1977, sitting in the second row, crying along with Glynnis. Still my favorite musical of all time. And no one yet has touched Len Cariou as Fredrick (or Sweeney), even Jeremy Irons couldn't get close.
Thank you. It is ... ( 2 months ago by trilipush)
Thank you. It is very unusual, and written for Glynis!

thank you for posting, i guess it's 20 yrs after she performed it on broadway. very moving.
Almost a complete ... ( 2 months ago by WillInNewHaven)
Almost a complete spectrum of great performers have done this song.
From Sarah Vaughan, a jazz artist, great musician and singer but not an actress
To this version, done by a great actress with a serviceable singing voice and a wonderful conception of the part.
I could listen to any of them. Streisand combines actress and musician best, perhaps, but every version I hear is great.
Hail Sondheim

In 1977? But it wasn't running in 1977, having run from February 1973 to August 1974. Or perhaps you meant you saw the event shown on this video, in which case, pardon me and never mind. I saw the original production towards the end of its run, with most of the original cast, other than William Daniels having replaced Cariou. It was marvelous!
i like how the ... ( 1 month ago by edmame)
i like how the romantic vision appears, then quickly vanishes in her take on "i thought that you want what i want, sorry, my dear". streisand is technically dazzling, dench gives multi layers of pain, but for some reason glynis is definitive. maybe it's her perfect ratio of strength dissolved in fragility, great youth and beauty unraveled by aging.

love this video , I remember Glynis Johns from some great movies of the 50's such as the Court Jester , the mermaid movies and some disney movies when I was a child she was a beauty with an unusual voice and still is as you can see from this video
