There was an earlier song entitled "Funny Girl", which was attached to the Broadway show (whether it was ever used or only a 'trunk song' I'm not exactly sure) - it's quite different in tone to what was written for the film.

"The Music That Makes Me Dance" is THE highpoint of the original stage score, in my opinion. It's a crying shame it never wound up in the film, although the "Funny Girl" song has it's own lovely charms.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this restoration at least partially instigated by Miss Barbra herself? I think I read somewhere that she contacted Sony about running off a new copy of "Funny Girl" for her own collection, and that Barbra alerted lab techs about the bad condition of the film?

I just got the Australian release (part of the 'Audrey Timeless' collection along with "Tiffany's" and "Sabrina") but haven't got around to watching it yet...

Will definitely be indulging, Robert. It's been years since I've actually sat down with the film.
