Timeless (2001)
Columbia Records released Barbra's 2-CD live recording of Timeless in September of 2000 to coincide with her final concerts. However, it took until 2001—nearly one year after it was filmed—for the Timeless television special to premiere.
The television special captured both of Barbra's performances at the MGM Grand Hotel from New Year's Eve 1999/2000.
When the special finally aired—on FOX television—the concert was edited for content. Airing on Valentines Day 2001, Streisand fans noticed that all references to the Millenium and New Years Eve were edited from the television broadcast, which ran (with commercials) 2 hours. Numbers like “Miss Marmelstein” and “A Sleepin Bee” were not shown. FOX aired Timeless again on May 25, 2001.
The Timeless VHS and DVD (released on February 20, 2001) contained the complete Millenium-themed concert. It was the first Streisand music DVD available (and with a 5.1 surround sound mix!).
