Debut:  68

Pop Bits:  Streisand was on top of the singles chart with "Woman in Love" when this title track to her #1 album made its entry. The silky smooth duet seemed tailor made for the pair and it wasn't long before this track followed right into the Top 10. It also ended up winning the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Duo or Group.

ReduxReview:  Mmm, mmm. Tasty and delicious. Barry Gibb just couldn't miss during this time. He was at the top of his game and luckily some artists like Streisand were able to jump on board. This is just pure AC heaven.

ReduxRating:  9/10

Trivia:  All tracks on the album were co-written by Barry Gibb (some with Robin Gibb), but the song "Guilty" was the only one co-written by all three BeeGees.
