Don't Rain on My Parade


This ultimate diva song from Funny Girl is one of musical theatre's best. The role was originated by Barbara Streisand and made popular again on Glee with Lea Michele singing the great role. I've decided to post three versions of it and let me know which is your favorite! I'm choosing the original - Barbara's live television performance from 1975, a 2002 Broadway Cares, Equity Fights AIDS concert with Lillias White (from the How to Succeed 1995 revival and from Once on this Island), and finally the live Lea Michelle performance at the 2010 Tony's... no auto-tuning here! :)


Go about a minute and a half in to where the song starts!

    I like the original the best too! Buuuut, Barbara look like a sparkly dementor in the that dress...Lea's was a much better choice. Just sayin'!
