I Know Him So Well.(from CHESS) Barbra Streisand + Brooklyn
Love theme from the musical CHESS. I KNOW HIM SO WELL Nothing is so good it lasts eternally (More) Love theme from the musical CHESS. I KNOW HIM SO WELL Nothing is so good it lasts eternally Perfect situations must go wrong But this has never yet prevented me Wanting far too much for far too long. Looking back I could have played it differently Won a few more moments who can tell But it took time to understand the man Now at least I know I know him well. Wasnt it good? oh so good Wasnt he fine? oh so fine Isnt it madness he cant be mine? But in the end he needs A little bit more than me More security He needs his fantasy and freedom I know him so well. No one in your life is with you constantly No one is completely on your side And though I move my world to be with him Still the gap between us is too wide. Looking back I could have played it differently Could have played things some other way. Learn about the man before I fell I was just a little careless maybe But I was ever so much younger then. I was so much younger then Now at least I know I know him well Wasnt it good? oh so good Wasnt he fine? oh so fine Isnt it madness he wont be mine? Didnt I know how it would go? If I knew from the start Why am I falling apart? Wasnt he fine? isnt it madness He wont be mine? But in the end he needs a little bit more than me More security He needs his fantasy and freedom I know him so well It took time to understand me I know him so well. Music by: Bjorn Ulvaeus & Benny Andersson. Lyrics by: Tim Rice CHESS, A musical ( Wikipedia): "Chess is a musical with lyrics by Tim Rice and music by Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, formerly of ABBA. The story involves a romantic triangle between two players in a world chess championship, and a woman who manages one and falls in love with the other. Although the protagonists were not intended to represent any specific individuals, the characters' personalities are loosely based on those of Victor Korchnoi and Bobby Fischer." Video: ERASMUS HALL HIGH SCHOOL, Brooklyn, New York. Circa 1955-1960. Barbra Streisand's Alma Mater, ERASMUS HALL HIGH SCHOOL, located on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn. Barbra graduated in January 1959, so let's assume she attended that school from 1955-1959. She sang in the school choir along with a future duet partner named Neil Diamond. She was described by her fellow student as sort of a loner, dreaming of becoming a famous actress. At the school cafeteria she sat opposite another loner living in his dream world, chess maven Bobby Fischer. He was already becoming famous in Chess circles, and newspapers articles and TV shows mentioned the wiz kid from Brooklyn's ERASMUS HALL H.S.. I wonder if he was the one who taught Barbra how to play chess. Other future famous at Erasmus High School at this period were basketball player Billy Cunningham, musical arranger Artie Butler, and Richard Hirschman (D.D.S.). Don K. Reed, (1960) (disc jockey, hosted "The Doo-Wop Shop" radio show on New York oldies station WCBS-FM.).Lainie Kazan (Lainie Levine), (1956); Broadway, film and TV actress and singer.. BOBBY FISCHER: "In 1956, when he was 13, he became the youngest winner of the U.S. Junior Championship. In 1958, he stunned the American chess world by winning the U.S. championship, which qualified him to play in the Interzonal Tournament in Portoroz, Yugoslavia. He became the youngest international grandmaster in the history of the game." "At Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn, he excelled in Spanish, math and the sciences but considered his teachers "all mental cases." He devoured chess books and magazines, including the Russian publication Shakhmaty. In 1957, in Cleveland, the gangly kid from Brooklyn won the U.S. open championship in a field of 175 players, tying with U.S. champion Arthur B. Bisguier. The victory qualified him for the U.S. Chess Federation's championship tournament at the Manhattan Chess Club, where, on Jan. 7, 1958, the 14-year-old defeated Bisguier, thus becoming U.S. champion." The Chess game shown at the end of the video is part of the 1958 encounter between Bobby Fischer and Bent Larsen. Bobby Fischer played white. Wonder if he discussed the game with Barbra at the school cafeteria. Guess we'll have to wait for Barbra's autobiography to know more about her years at ERASMUS HALL HIGH SCHOOL. JANUARY 1, 1959 Barbara Streisand graduates from Erasmus Hall High with a 93 average and a medal in Spanish. Barbra Streisand (class of 1959) Barbra Streisand was a member of Freshman Chorus and the Choral Club. She graduated with a 93 average, and a medal in Spanish. "Thomas Lawrence - in Richard's class at Erasmus Hall High School (1958). One of Richard's favorite teachers in high school. -Richard Hirschman" -" Ein Jugendfreund war der spätere Schachmeister Bobby Fischer." (Less)
