Sobre el álbum
La banda sonora de la película "Yentl" es uno de los proyectos más personales y ambiciosos en la discografía de Barbra Streisand. En este trabajo, la artista no solo protagoniza, sino que también dirige, produce y co-escribe el guion, y interpreta todas las canciones. La música, compuesta por Michel Legrand con letras de Alan y Marilyn Bergman, es una parte fundamental de la narrativa. De hecho, las canciones funcionan como los monólogos internos del personaje, una técnica innovadora.
El álbum contiene piezas de una belleza y una carga emocional extraordinarias, como la ganadora del Oscar "Papa, Can You Hear Me?" o "The Way He Makes Me Feel". La banda sonora se convirtió en un éxito rotundo por derecho propio. "Yentl" es la culminación del genio de una artista total, una gran obra que fusiona cine y música de una manera inolvidable.

Letra
Tell me where Where is it written What is it I was meant to be? That I can't dare It all began the day I found That from my window I could only see A piece of sky I stepped outside and looked around I never dreamed it was so wide Or even half as high The time had come (Papa, can you hear me?) To try my wings (Papa, are you near me?) And even thought it seemed at any moment I could fall I felt the most (Papa, can you see me?) Amazing things (Can you understand me?) The things you can't imagine If you've never flown at all Though it's safer to stay on the ground Sometimes where danger lies There the sweetest of pleasures are found No matter where I go There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve But there will also be More to question, yet more to believe Oh tell me where? Where is the someone who will turn and look at me? And want to share My every sweet-imagined possibility? The more I live - the more I learn The more I learn - the more I realize The less I know Each step I take (Papa, I've a voice now!) Each page I turn (Papa, I've a choice now!) Each mile I travel only means The more I have to go What's wrong with wanting more? If you can fly - then soar! With all there is - why settle for Just a piece of sky? Papa, I can hear you Papa, I can see you Papa, I can feel you Papa, watch me fly! - The Way He Makes Me Feel [Studio Version]4:09
- No Matter What Happens [Studio Version]3:18
