A much rewarded love song Evergreen, is part of Barbra’s Streisand album named "A Star is Born", that was the soundtrack for the movie with the same name, from year 1976.
Composed and sang by Barbra Streisand, with the written lyrics by Paul Williams, Evergreen won 49th Academy Awards for Best Original Song and Best Actress, also Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song.
A lot of other awards were won and the song went directly to the charts in Canada, Australia, UK, US Billboard Hot 100 (peaking at number 1) and Asia.
With this song, Barbra earned the Academy Award for Song of the Year.
As a pop hit, sold in more than 2 million copies, the song also appeared on the tribute album "Diana, Princess of Wales: Tribute" in 1997, became Streisand’s second number 1 single and spent three weeks at the top of Billboard Hot 100.
The song is a solo instrumental, and regarding instruments and elements present in the song, we can find in the song are, of course vocal (Barbra’s voice is one of the greatest ever), piano, guitar, trombone, double bass and trumpet.
The romantic lyrics are of course, beginning with "love":
"Love, soft as an easy chair
Love, fresh as the morning air"
It is soft and strong in the same time, because of the lyrics and with the help of Barbra’s incredible voice.
The song was released in late December 1976 and it is a wonderful mix of vocal pop and adult contemporary musical genres which lasts for 3 minutes and 4 seconds.
The single’s B-Side is "I Believe In Love".
