This must be the one song which has always been synonymous with Barbra Streisand. It was like.. Think Barbra Streisand, think People. Ms Streisand has even been asked on one occasion to sing four lines of People to prove her identity over the telephone! (to Pat Conroy, author of The Prince Of Tides, who thought a friend of his was playing a joke on hik when he got a phonecall from "The Legend").

People, People who need people Are the luckiest people in the world Where children needing other children And yet letting our grown-up pride Hide all the need inside Acting more like children than children Lovers Are very special people They're the luckiest people in the world With one person, One very special person A feeling deep in your soul Says you are half now you're whole No more hunger and thirst But first be a person who needs people People, People who need people Are the luckiest people in the world. With one person One very special person A feeling deep in your soul Says you are half now you're whole No more hunger and thirst But first be a person who needs people People, People who need people Are the luckiest people in the world.
