I also think its absurdity of the highest order to say that Jane is a better comedienne than she is singer!! Although funny, Jane has captured the heart of her fans not with her ability to make us laugh, but with the power to captivate and entice us with the beauty of her incomparable voice. Minelli or Streisand she may not be, but really, do we need others?
