I have never heard of Barbra Streisand or the Streisand effect. I love how the "Streisand effect" is an example of itself.
For the Streisand effect to be an example of itself, there would have to be an attempt to ban or suppress the usage or knowledge of the idea of the effect. I don't think that's happened, so I don't see how it's self-referential.
the Streisand Effect is fake news.
"It is named after American entertainer Barbra Streisand, whose attempt to suppress the California Coastal Records Project's photograph of her residence in Malibu, California, taken to document California coastal erosion, inadvertently drew further attention to it in 2003."
My point is that more people know about Barbra Streisand and the Streisand Effect because of Streisand's attempts to suppress information.
Here’s a “pop up” version of the music video with more details about the song: https://youtu.be/i_QOeWflG9g
I remember first hearing this song playing on someones phone back when the best mobile game was that nokia red ball thing.
In my opinion, in ten or twenty years this will shift even further and young people will know the Streisand name only because of the "effect".
But I reckon I could still sing along with You Don't Bring Be Flowers Anymore and Woman In Love and get most of the lyrics right.
She's more my parent's era than mine, but like The Beatles and Cat Stevens, I grew up listening to my parents music...
People want to get tickets because ticket are hard to get
