Puttin' It Together - Barbra Streisand
Barbra: Look, I've spent a lot of time working on this Producer 1: Look, no one's gonna buy it -- no one. Producer 2: No one in Middle America, anyway. That's for sure. Producer 3: He's right! Producer 1: Sweetheart, it's just not commercial! Barbra: What is commercial? Producer 2: It's not what's selling nowadays. Producer 1: I mean - personally, I love it, but Barbra (sung):Be nice, girl! Producer 3: Nobody's into this kind of material. Barbra (sung): You have to pay a price, girl! Producer 2: This album needs a hit single we can push. Barbra (sung):They like to give advice, girl! Producer 1: The whole idea's too risky. Barbra (sung): Don't think about it twice, girl! Producer 2: The audience won't understand this kind of thing! Barbra (sung):It's time to get to work! Barbra(spoken): I disagree! Why don't you wait until you hear it? Producer 3: This is like your old stuff! Barbra (sung): Art isn't easy. Producer 3: You've got to appeal to the kids. Barbra (sung): Even when you're hot. Producer 2: Why would you want to make an album like this anyway? Barbra (sung): Advancing art is easy. Producer 1: I think we ought to talk seriously about this. Barbra (sung): Financing it is not! Producer 2: Why take chances? Barbra (sung): A vision's just a vision if it's only in your head! Producer 1: Nobody respects your artistic integrity more than I do, but Barbra (sung): If no one gets to hear it, it's as good as dead! Producer 2: You have to think about you career! Barbra (sung): It has to come to life! Barbra (sung): Bit by bit, putting it together Piece by piece, only way to make a work of art Every moment makes a contribution Every little detail plays a parts Having just a vision's no solution Everything depends on execution Putting it together, that's what counts! Ounce by ounce, putting in together Small amounts, adding up to
