Wow. Thanks for posting the link to what seems like a man (Styne?) singing most of the original score and some songs that were cut. But, at about 54:10, we get Streisand singing a couple of songs that didn’t make it in, including an early «Funny Girl » title tune. Streisand is, of course, a great singer....but this early Streisand, with her remarkable high notes, is thrilling. (At the very end is Sharif, it seems, singing the velvet cage song, so I guess this « demo » spanned a lot of years. But...fun fun fun to give it a listen! (It’s above in this thread).
