Papa, watch me fly!
This hat is inspired by the hat worn by Barbara Streisand at the end of the movie ‘Yentl’ where she is sailing to America to begin a new life -- and holds one of the longest notes I’ve ever heard! Seriously, not only is she stellar in this role and soundtrack, but this song in particular gives one chills!
