She also now has the longest span of number one albums in history and first landed at the top of the US charts in October 1964 with PEOPLE.

Among the songs included are ‘New York State Of Mind,’ with Billy Joel, ‘It Had To Be You,’ with Michael Bublé, ‘Come Rain Or Come Shine,’ with John Mayer, ‘Love Me Tender,’ with Elvis Presley, ‘The Way We Were,’ with Lionel Richie, ‘What Kind Of Fool,’ with John Legend, ‘People,’ with Stevie Wonder, ‘I Can Still See Your Face,’ with Andrea Bocelli, ‘Evergreen,’ with Babyface, and Ms. Streisand’s first studio-recorded duet with her son Jason Gould, on ‘How Deep Is The Ocean.’
