What a wonderful version! I have never heard her perform this song before...so much emotion. The sax player is fabulous too!

Comparing Barbara to Madonna is like comparing Streisand to Britney Spears. There is simply no comparison. Check out Madonna singing this on YouTube - can anyone HONESTLY say that Madge's version comes anywhere near this? Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice knew what they were doing when they offered this song to Barbara, still a relative unknown at the time, on the original studio album of Evita.

Dickson is in a class of her own - lesser singers like Paige, Madonna etc just dont' compare.

Yip, Ive got the vinyl and cd version. you can still get the cd in the shops, amazon etc. I saw him in Newcastle playing in Jesus Christ Superstar in the 70s. Top man!

I dont think Madonnas voice carries the pathos of a vulnerable prostitute...cos i dont think Madonnas ever been a victim of life...Barbara Dickson's tender voice over Elaine Paiges caterwauling anyday

Does anyone have CT Wilkerson's "narrator" in Evita the Album??

the only reason u think madonna is better, (not just with this song but most evita songs) is cos u have heared that version more than this, yes madonna portrayed the part well but u cant beat the orig's julie covington, elaine paige etc

Madonna a better singer than Barbara Dickson! Don't make me laugh - and don't make yourself ridiculous by suggesting it.

Patti Lupone was the original broadway. The original concept was Julie Covington as Evita and Barbara Dickson sing the role of the mistress i.e. this song |
