YMMV / Barbra Streisand

Go To

YMMV tropes relating to this artist:

  • Memetic Mutation: Duck Sauce's extremely thought provoking song named after her.
  • Overshadowed by Controversy: She was originally known for her acting and music career in the late 1900s, but come 2003 and most people know of her only for her infamous and unsuccessful lawsuit against a photographer for unknowingly photographing her Beach House which helped coined the Streisand Effect phenomenon.
  • Signature Song: "Don't Rain on My Parade." Also, "The Way We Were", "As If We Never Said Goodbye", and "People".
  • Tear Jerker: "Send In the Clowns."
    • "The Way We Were" is another one. It becomes even more somber when you watch Streisand's performance of the song in memory of its writer Marvin Hamlisch, who was also a lifelong friend of Barbra, during the In Memoriam segment at the 2013 Oscars.
