Answer: My Heart Belongs to Me

Answer: Evergreen

"Evergreen" is so recognizable, timeless and simply a meritable recording. This song is the love theme from the movie, "A Star is Born", starring Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
I made all other choices simplistic. You're welcome!

9.

Answer: Songbird

Another composition of "Songbird", under the folk music genre, was recorded by Christine McVey of Fleetwood Mac and another arrangement released by Eva Cassidy (whose voice is soothingly pure).
The new millennium, and the successful TV series, "Glee", included this same composition on one of their episodes, sung by Naya Rivera as Glee character Santana.
Kenny G plays saxophone in one more composition of his own creation and it's a staple inclusion within any Elevator Music collection.
And, if that isn't confusing enough, people mix-up Anne Murray's song "Snowbird" with Barbra's "Songbird".

Complimentary Elimination- "Crowing Its Obnoxious Song"

10. "There's no chill, and, yet I shiver. There's no flame, and, yet I burn. I'm not sure what I'm afraid of, And, yet I'm trembling. There's no storm, yet I hear thunder, And I'm breathless; why, I wonder? Weak one moment, Then the next I'm fine." Lyrics from the soul - name this composition.

Answer: The Way He Makes Me Feel

From the movie "Yentl" for which Streisand wrote, produced, and directed the film, as well as produced amd sang on the soundtrack.
Another song from the "Yentl" soundtrack was sung by Donna Summer at the 1984 Academy Awards, "Papa Can You Hear Me?", a contender under the Best Original Song category.
Oddly, while researching in 2016, as beautiful as "The Way He Makes Me Feel" is, I can't find where it has been recorded by any other artist. Hummmmm? I wonder if Babs is holding tight "all rights"!?!

"Can't Feel My Face" is actually a song by The Weeknd (numbing love song, I'd say)
