"Happy Days Are Here Again" is a song copyrighted in 1929 by Milton Ager (music) and Jack Yellen (lyrics) and published by EMI Robbins Catalog, Inc./Advanced Music Corp. The song was recorded by Leo Reisman and His Orchestra, with Lou Levin, vocal (November 1929), and was featured in the 1930 film Chasing Rainbows. The song concluded the picture, in what film historian Edwin Bradley described as a "pull-out-all-the-stops Technicolor finale, against a Great War Armistice show-within-a-show backdrop" Today, the song is usually remembered as the campaign song for Franklin Delano Roosevelt's successful 1932 presidential campaign. According to Time magazine, it gained prominence after a spontaneous decision by Roosevelt's advisers to play it at the 1932 Democratic National Convention, and went on to become the Democratic Party's "unofficial theme song for years to come". The song is also associated with the Repeal of Prohibition, which occurred shortly after Roosevelt's election where there were signs saying "Happy days are beer again" and so on

The gig features a once-in-a-lifetime lineup of guest performers in addition to Streisand, including a routine by shtickmeister Robin Williams and musical support from giants Barry Gibb, Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager and Richard Marx.

Tracks include: "Somewhere," "Evergreen (Love theme from Star is Born)" "Something's Coming," "People," "Send in the Clowns," "Over the Rainbow," "Papa, Can You Hear Me?" (from Yentl), "The Way We Were," "It's a New World," "Happy Days Are Here Again," "America the Beautiful," and two duets with Gibb, "Guilty" and the showstopper "What Kind of Fool," both culled from the 1980 StreisandGibb album, Guilty.
