C'est Si Bon
(It's So Good)

Barbra's claims to fame in the music world are classics like "People," "Evergreen," "The Way We Were," The Broadway Album, and countless other English-language recordings. But Streisand also has a more international side:
below is a listing of the songs Barbra has recorded in six other languages.

If this polyglot approach to Streisand's songs seems to be a fringe aspect of Barbra fanatacism, please recall that this page's author is a linguistics major.
