Screw it! i've just bought 'ultimate Manilow' on Itunes, there's always been a stigma attached to him for one reason or another, but some of those songs are irrestible.

I blame 'Angel', when David Boreanaz sang 'Mandy' it was just too funny. Perhaps i'm getting old.

What's interesting is the original Mandy by Scott English was called Brandy and uptempo.

I’ve always had a soft spot for Barry. Weekend in New England, I Made It Through the Rain and Ready to Take A Chance make me tear up. boxed But Copacabana was my jam!



"Copacabana" was a disco jam music nobody expected him to come out with something like that,it was a departure for him.

sure I admit smile I got his greatest hits back in the days and had it on my turntable quite a lot. probably didn't put it on during the last 10 or 15 years but nevertheless... Manilow is hip cool
Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green. With a key... sissy!
