One intriguing example is “And I Moved,” a track written by Pete Townshend of The Who, specifically for Bette Midler. Although it didn’t make it onto any of her albums, just imagine the magic of these two iconic artists collaborating.

Another lesser-known tune is “Lonely,” originally by Petula Clark, which became part of The Toilet Medley in Bette’s acclaimed Broadway revue, Clams on the Half Shell. These unique renditions added a special touch to her live performances, showcasing her versatility as a performer.

Furthermore, Bette’s performances at the Continental Baths included other captivating tunes that may not be immediately recognizable to all fans.
