I watched Funny Girl for the first time last night. OMG.
I’ve known this song forever but seeing Babs perform it blew me away.
People who need people are the luckiest people in the world. ❤

Have to giggle. When that song was way up on the charts if affected me like nails on a chalkboard because I couldn’t stand having people SWARM ALL OVER ME the way everyone was always pushing me to let them. School counselors telling me I should “force myself to join a club.” Group activities. Team sports, It’s like being crawled on by cockroaches.
Friends, yeah, but just… people? peepulpeepulpeepul? Aren’t cats and plants better 90 per cent of the time?

When it was on the charts it was just one of many “show tunes” that were popular back then.
But NOW. I mean, Streisand is legend and in retrospect this song speaks of letting people in by needing them, opening our hearts, showing our vulnerable side. Which I am pretty sure refers to friends, not just any old people out there.
As much as I love my cats (and you know I do) they cannot hold me and talk to me and share their lives with me. You also know the number of people this close to me can be counted on one hand. Still, I’d be so lost without them.
