If we’re doing Barry Manilow then you simply cannot leave out any of Neil Diamond’s huge library!
Agreed! Neil Diamond and Engelbert Humperdinck. Two great singers!
Absolutely!! Hello My Friend, Love On The Rocks and Sweet Caroline
I prefer Neil over Barry.
@@dawngrant4918 both great, but for some reason my fav is Brother Love's Travelin' Salvation Show. I just love the energy of it I think.
Yes Neil Diamond.
Copacabanna is another great Barry choice. Really, he doesn’t have any bad songs.
Try “ I write the songs “ byBarry Manilow
Yes Copa is more upbeat that Jordan is looking for.
💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥 Copa is the up beat you NEED! 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
Yes,Yes,Yes
@@cnatview yes an upbeat song about murder. Lol
70's. Best time for music no matter WHAT you liked!
Barry Gibb, Barry White, Barry Manilow…I’ll take any Barry you’ve got to give. Those voices; so unique in each their own way.🥰
And no one's mentioned Barry Gordy either!
Well said!!!👍
Barry Goldwater
Barry Obama.
This Rabbit Hole Is Very Deep. This Man Wrote The Songs The Whole World Sang!!!
Fact!
It's a world-wide symphony!!!
Actually he didn't. He didn't write any of his hits.
@@comicus6769 actually he did write about 100 hit songs. Some he used others were used by other artist.
He didn't write the song "I write the songs". The keyboard player from The Beach Boys wrote it.
"I Write the Songs" is another one of his huge hits to check out.
and he actually did not write that song
He wrote this song about his cat that he gave away!😔
Ships...my personal favorite
@@sheilameyers152 Brandy
@@Gutts31 Glenn Campbell wrote it.
I was overjoyed to see you reacting to Barry!!! He does NOT get enough love. He is often deemed 'corny', 'cheesy' or 'elevator music'. And admittedly he is what used to be called 'soft rock', but he's one of those artists that is a guilty pleasure for like 80% of people. They disrespect the man by keeping their appreciation closeted, but they low-key love him. And anyone who ever heard his biggest hits (I Write the Songs, being the most iconic, I feel), have at LEAST five songs that they secretly love.
I didn't get to see him perform until my mom bought me tickets for my 36th birthday, and suddenly I was 13 and fan-girling. Thank you so much for doing this reaction. Oh, and the reason I Write the Songs is so iconic and will probably be played at his funeral - is because of all the songs he did AND all the songs and jingles he wrote that everyone knows! The State Farm them music, the 'you deserve a break today' from McD's or the 'I am stuck on Band-Aid' - all Manilow! Sorry for the rant. I just love him. :) And yes, Yes, YES - please do more!
I totally agree
I'm new here so I don't know if you did anymore Barry or not but if you did not you gotta feel him sing "Even Now" and I don't know if there's a video of it out there but if so Darius Rucker is a huge Barry Manilow fan and does a no music just Darius and his heart belting out Even Now from deep within his soul.... FEELING IT!
His music has brought me through some hard times. I love the piano playing. He has so many thoughts of love and life and peacefulness. Barry’s music is sensational and he’s a great musician.
@@denisemorant1109 And the thing that really makes him phenomenal is that he didn't aspire to be a performer/entertainer. He was most interested in being a composer, arranger, producer but he sent in a demo of some songs he wrote and performed and was fast tracked into the lime light. The rest is history.
True story: back in the 70's yours truly and her contemporaries were hard rock devotees: KISS, Queen, Blue Oyster Cult, Led Zeppelin, Sweet, etc. Guys like Barry Manilow were the constant butt of our jokes. Well, a couple of my friends got dragged to a Barry Manilow show by their aunties, grandmas, older female relatives, I forget exactly who, but anyway... they walked into that theatre as haters, but they walked out as fans!
Barry Manilow DEFINITELY deserves a spot on your WALL OF FAME!!! 🥰🥰
Yes for sure
Barry Manilow's whole career made people smile. His lyrics "I write the songs that make the whole world sing." Everyone loved BM in the 70's.
True. Ironically, the song you quoted from is one of the few that he did not write himself. ;-]
@@robertcartier5088, yep, written by Bruce Johnston of the Beach Boys.
I must correct you. I Write the Songs was written by Beach Boy Bruce Johnston.
I dont believe Jay thought this was the 60s LOL Look at his hair and collar, A dead give a way lol This was the mid 70s Baby
And it wasn't a shock when this lovely talented man came out a few years ago.We ALL knew and not one of us cared.
J&A, You'll love his upbeat "Copacabana", "I Write The Songs", "Can't Smile Without You" and "Looks Like We Made It"
Yes- all of these!
Can’t forget Weekend in New England.
And Daybreak
All 4 of these are perfect suggestions !!
A lot of Manilow’s songs have a similar sound and feel. But that’s not a bad thing because his distinctive voice and songs are uniformly good.
L-E-G-E-N-D! Barry was the KING of the romantic ballad of the 1970s. I grew up with him and no one could touch him. He also did all of the piano and orchestral arrangements for his dozens of his singles and albums. At age 78, Barry is still a big star and is currently out in Las Vegas in a sold out residency at the Hliton. Barry did not write this particular song from 1974, although he wrote many of his hits. I recommend other hits "Could It Be Magic", "Even Now', "Looks Like We Made It", and "Somewhere Down The Road" (ballads) and "Copacabana" (a fun uptempo story-song)
You should also note that this song was originally titled "Brandy", but Barry got beat to the punch when another hit song called "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)". So he changed the title. Can't have confusion like that when you're writing hits, right? LOL!
Love Barry Manilow. Nobody admits to being a fan but his albums always hit #1. I've seen him in concert twice, An incredible song writer and entertainer
FAN!
Yes he knows how to entertain as well as sing and play music. And compose. Amazing voice
If nobody would admit being a fan of Barry, nobody would show up at his concerts!
i admit it...I've loved him since I was a kid!
They made an episode of Family Guy where when they are at the bar, they all admit to being Manilow fans and they end up going to one of his concerts and he takes Quagmire up on stage and sings to him. It's hilarious! I'm not afraid to admit I'm a fan of him and ABBA.
If you want easy on the ears.. James Taylor… pick any song, any record from 1970 to now. He’s a legend
Sweet Baby James, perhaps

Nobody's Better than James Taylor.
Deep rabbit hole that goes all the way to Pooh Corner...😉
Yes!
Jiminy Christmas! Barry has been around a 100 years with a thousand hits. Astonishing that he's another "never heard of" artist. Keep broadening your horizon, kids!
I think Barry Manilow and Dick Clark discovered fountain of youth together.
Since Barry is supposedly gay, it might be he’s singing to Man-dy.!
He sings the Copacabana song, too.
And he still likes the same! Ha.
@@stevegirardmedia2255 I realize this is an old comment, but since nobody else updated you; Manilow married Garry Kief in 2014. They'd been a couple, and Kief had been his manager, since 1978. Manilow said he didn't come out for so long because he didn't want to disappoint his fans.
@@akinpaws Good for him. He deserves to live his truth; it's sad that he had to hide for so long. ✌️💙
Add “Ready To Take A Chance Again” and “Weekend In New England” to the list of songs you need to hear. He’s an amazing musician, songwriter and arranger, but he’s unfairly maligned as being a schlockmeister from the 1970’s
Amber’s reaction to music is so genuine. She gives every song a chance, she immerses herself. Can’t fake that.
Give it up for the Fanilows! I love that you're watching him while wearing AC/DC and Beastie Boys t-shirts. Just shows that great music is great music! Other tracks to hit are Copa Cabana (a total guilty pleasure banger), Weekend in New England (going to make you cry), Daybreak, It's a Miracle
@Rob Wolf...... I've been a Fanilow for many years!!!!
I thought the same thing! Kind of ironic! 😂
oh Weekend in New England.... definitely will make you cry!!
I have playlists that consists of both AC/DC and Barry.
I noticed the irony of the T-shirts too. Always humorous whenever that happens.
He has quite a few hits to listen to - "Can't Smile Without You", "Copacabana", "I Write The Songs", and "Looks Like We Made It". He was popular in the 70's.
"Can't smile without you" in Hellboy II is one of my favourite scenes in any movie, absolutely wonderful moment
I would say “hugely popular” as a pop artist in the 70s.
Ironically, he didn’t write “I Write The Songs”.
Yes yes yes
Copacabana is definitely more upbeat than this.
Mandy was a rescue dog that he had to return. I tried to teach myself how to play this song on the piano. It drove my kids crazy, but they know all the words and the wonder that is Barry Manilow. It's not always a woman!!
When Barry Manilow wrote this song He Titled it 'Brandy', however at the same time a band called ' Looking Glass' came out with song with the same name, so Barry changed the title to 'MANDY'
It was written by Clive James I think.
Ok. Lots of people poke fun at Barry but he is a legendary artist. His voice, piano playing and songwriting are incredible. Mostly he does love songs. Weekend in New England is my favorite.
Always love him and his music
A lot of people are sh1theads too. Manilow is talented and his songs are really catchy. They build and deliver. If you are driving in your car by yourself and this comes on. I bet you’re singing along. I think he use to accompany Bette Midler when she sang in NYC bathhouses. I like her too usually.
Weekend in New England: yes!
@@myrevival4325 YES !!!!
Weekend In New England is also my favorite song. Not just Barry's, but of any performer.
C’mon! The man wrote the Dr. Pepper jingle:
I'm a Pepper.
He's a pepper.
She's a pepper.
We're a pepper.
Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m a Pepper! Been nearly my whole life! Now days I am a Diet or Zero Sugar Pepper, thanks Type 2 Diabetes! But still a Pepper none the less!
Mandy, you came and you by gave without taking
In a 1978 interview Barry told a British interviewer that he wrote this song for his Beagle. However, the song was actually not written by Barry Manilow so it's thought that Barry was just being very tongue in cheek with the interviewer.
Barry Manilow was the king of the 1970s shamelessly over-the-top ballad. His hits almost always featured an uplifting key change -- often several key changes -- in the final choruses. "Weekend in New England" and "Looks Like We Made It" are two great examples from 1976.
Weekend in New England has been my favorite since I was a little girl.
You are SO CORRECT about the key changes! I remember taking music theory in high school. My teacher explained all the classical ways to understand a modulation. He said, "If you still can't really hear it, if it's too subtle for you to notice, just listen to some Barry Manilow." And ever since then, I've thought that THIS is the only way to put in a key change. Why be subtle? (For the uninitiated, imagine a song being in C Major. Suddenly the song is different, but also it's not: all the chord changes are the same, and so is the melody, but suddenly it's up higher in D Major. Or even higher! You can really feel that lift.)
By the way, I back up the "Weekend in New England" recommendation. It is one of the few, rare songs that became a hit with the title being nowhere found in the lyric of the song.
Those are two great Ballads. Just beautiful music.
“Copacabana” and “It’s a Miracle” are both more upbeat songs.
Copacabana is a fun song!
@@laurel1634 A fun song... about love, cheating, sex, and murder. Brilliant. lol
The upbeat music hides the true darkness of the lyrics.
Cops over played (but not for them). Miracle is awesome.
I'm not sure I would call Copacabana upbeat. Kokomo by the Beach Boys is upbeat, Copacabana is kind of sad, like Delta Dawn (well done, but sad).
"Looks like we made it" is fantastic! Also, the best earworm ever "Copacabana". Barry is one of the best songwriters of all time!!
At 9 or 10 years old, this song used to break my heart. The longing and loss in his voice was palpable. Good stuff, good memories
This man has too many hits to even begin recommending. This was in the 70's. He started as a jingle writer. I went thru an intense Manilow phase in my early adolescence (about 77/78) when my emotions were all over the place and his music is just pure emotion and romance.
He was also Bette Midler's pianist and they played in Bath Houses in New York in the early 70's
He wrote McDonald's TV ad. Remember, "You deserve a break today at McDonald's?" That was his.
🎶 like a good neighbor State Farm is there 🎵
🎵 I am stuck on Band-Aid cuz Band-Aid stuck on me! 🎶
You start off with a great one by Barry. Coppa Cabana by Barry is good too.
He was one of the greatest songwriters of all time.
Barry had all the tween girls swooning in the 70's & 80's. He's magnificent. If you love Manilow, you're a "Fanilow!"
Ha3x!, I like that "Fanilow". . .i was one of them before. 😊
Barry Manilow has MANY hits. This was his first. Time In New England, Trying To Get The Feeling. I have his greatest hits DVD. So I am a Manilow fan. People love to put his music down.
Manilow is awesome and I will die on this hill.
People without a musical soul don't like anything. Every song ever written has never been liked by all. Enjoy your musical soul and forget the critics. Its about how it excites your inner spirit. Some have it and sadly some don't.
Time in New England is one of my favorites of all time.
I believe that they are called Fanilows
People put his music down because they catagorize him as an artist geared more towards the ladies. I listen to everything from Metallica to The Carpenters. I'm also a hugh fan of Doris Day's studio recordings, particularly 1956-66. So I could care less what narrow minded critics say. I like Manilow too.
BM is the king of the Easy Listening genre. He has a huge catalog. “Weekend in New England” and “Somewhere in the Night” are 2 of my favorites. Very powerful.
Agree totally! My two favorite songs by him!
Really enjoyed both your reactions. Barry Manilow, just had that voice.
Manilow is a legend. His best is "I Write the Songs", IMO. Y'all PLEASE listen to Neil Diamond's "I Am I Said" and "Solitary Man". His voice is heaven and totally unique.
Yes !!! I AM, I SAID ❤️
If you’re looking for an upbeat song by Barry Manilow that tells a story, it doesn’t get much better than Copa Cabana.
Yeah I mean Copacabana is certainly an upbeat tempo song but have you listened to the lyrics?!? I never paid much attention until a couple of years ago playing the song for a co worker ... those lyrics go a bit dark! The lyrics aren't upbeat!
@@molsongrrrl Yes, definitely meant to say uptempo, not upbeat. LOL!
You need to hear Barry sing "Weekend in New England".
He didn't write this song it was originally called Brandy and it was upbeat he slowed down the tempo and changed the name to Mandy and it became one of his biggest hits
I got a lot flack for Barry in my collection back in the day.This video is from the 70's.
I think “Even Now” is great choice to continue this journey of Barry M.
Even Now is totally my favorite. Great recommendation.
Barry Manilow is an amazing songwriter and singer. He has many, many ,many beautiful songs but sometimes doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He’s a more recent crooner although he also has songs that are upbeat, one of which is Copacabana. The songs “Weekend in New England “, could it be magic ( covered by Donna Summer), I can’t smile without you are a few of my favorites.
Theme from American Bandstand is very upbeat you have to dance. It's the law!!
A few years ago I met a woman who was a fanilow and I often mocked her for it. I started calling her Mandy and as a joke i decided to learn this song on guitar and sing it to her. The joke was on me, what a song! The arrangement and especially the lyrics are so powerful. I play this all the time now. 😊
I got to see Barry in concert, that was so good.
He’s called the ‘King of Crescendo’, his songs start out quiet and slow, then ends huge and powerful. ‘Can’t Smile Without You’ is a perfect example ✌🏼
Thats a great one...Can't smile would be my second fav after Mandy..Just because I was named after the song Mandy..My mom had a whole other name picked out and as I was born the song came on
In all my years I never heard that expression, but it's so fitting! Thanks for sharing.
Barry Manilow' Could It Be Magic is even better.
My favourite of his. Long version, totally engrossing.
‘Could it Be Magic’ is one of those songs that just carries your soul away to another place, you forget everything else. Thanks for covering him. You guys cover so much. All your fans appreciate you.
Barry picked me at his concert to dance to this song ❤ One of the best moments of my life 😍
@@trinakoch6240’m jealous !! One of my favorites too along with Mandy and ready to take a chance again.
I saw him in concert about 15 years ago and cried like a baby. I grew up listening to these beautiful songs. They hit me right in the heart.
This song was my biological father’s song and my song to sing together when our family would get together and sing ( he said it reminded him of losing my mom- in their divorce) , my biological dad died when I was 12 and I remember the final time we sang it together. Years later I sang it in our High School talent show and barely got through it without crying. But with the help of my wonderful stepfather who sat right in front of me, I did( he knew how much this song meant to me). I’m so glad you chose this as your first Barry Manilow song. Thank you for the wonderful memories. God bless.
That made me tear up......such a beautiful memory to keep forever....at least partially because of Barry Manilow. God Bless you
Beautiful
Teared up, too. Peace, Erin, forever.
A true songwriter. Maybe the “catchiest” song writer ever. Even wrote McDonalds commercial jingles.
Dont forget the I was stuck on band-aids commercial jingles as well
Pretty sure he wrote 'and like a good neighbor, State Farm is there..."
And “I’m a Pepper your a Pepper wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper too?”
Dr. Pepper👍
He also wrote and sang American bandstand, Dick Clark!
Didn’t write this song. The original is called Brandy but same words same melody. I can’t remember his name Something English, Scott maybe. So he changed Brandy to Mandy.
Mandy is his dog (but not really).
This song was originally called 'Brandy', but was was changed to 'Mandy' to avoid confusion with the song 'Brandy (you're a fine girl)',
Written by Scott English in 1971, so this is a cover.
After this song came out a reporter called up the songwriter in the middle of the night, and asked who the song was about, and his said it was about his dog (but he made that up just to get rid of the reporter). This was a hit #1 in 1975.
"Can't Smile Without You", "Copacabana", "I Write The Songs", are worth a nice listen
"Could it Be Magic" is THE BEST song Barry created and he's had major hits over the years.
By far.
That song, on the 1st listen way back then, made me say out loud, "I need to fall in love right now!"
@@parisbrat It's utterly BEAUTIFUL!
Absotively
Especially the 1975 "remake", or the Single Version. Same arrangement and length as the album original (no "play it" from Grandpa, though), just more musically refined and more confident vocally. Seems like it was put out as a double a-side with "I write the songs" ? My memory has faded about how it was released, but this is the "gold standard" version. Seek it out!!
Barry Manilow is a guilty pleasure for so many. He has a string of hits. Definitely do a deeper dive into his catalog!! 🎹
Many Manilow fans in the closet.
I do love Manilow, but I never tell any one.

He really is. I was a folk and Rock fan but loved Barry. All my friends made fun of p who liked him. So I have been a closet fan since the 80s. I'm 65 now. I reckon I can come right out and say I really do love Barry.
He started in the 70's I believe but he is still performing now.
A met a guy in the 90s who worked on mtv unplugged. He had signed albums from EVERYBODY and in his role spent about a week with all the artists. I asked him who was the coolest person or group, expecting him to say nirvana or the stones, etc. Without a beat, he said Barry Manilow was hands down the best artist he ever worked with. The most fun and with a great sense of humor.
Neil Diamond:
"Love on the Rocks" and "September Morn" also " I Am, I Said." All great songs to react to in my opinion.
Holly Holy. You will be a woman soon. Love on the Rocks
Sweet Caroline!
America, Forever in bluejeans, Longfellow Serenade, You Don't Bring Me Flowers (with Barbra Streisand) ... so-o-o many great Neil Diamond songs.

This is 1974. Barry has been going at it ever since, through today
I named my Daughter Amanda so I could call her "Mandy" because of this song in 1983. She passed away in 2016 at 33 so this song means the world to me!!!!!!
This was the 70s. We listened to everything back then. Zepellin to Manelow!✌❤

CAT STEVENS “Peace Train” “Morning Has Broken” “Wild World” the kids will love Peace Train! His voice is textured like none other!
Absolutely!! Must have Cat Stevens. ❤️🔥
Absolutely!! Must have Cat Stevens. ❤️🔥
Yes! They’d love Cat Stevens!
Yes Cat Stevens please. Jordan would love the piano on Morning has Broken.
'Matthew and Son' would be my Cat Stevens choice, which btw, contains a perfect prelude to Mad World by Tears for Fears (which I'd also recommend).
How wonderful to see a Rap-loving guy wearing an ACDC shirt vibing out to one of Barry Manilow's best songs. I, too, love music of all genres. "Tears are in my eyes and nothing is rhyming...". Beautiful. Also loved when Jay asked who Mandy was, and Amber said, "Well, she came and she gave without taking!"
This song was out my freshman year in college, and it really takes me back to that time - thank you for this one! (btw, Mandy was actually his dog - who doesn't love a man who writes a song about his dog?? ❤) (my mom went nuts for Barry)
My brother-in-law wrote a two page obituary for his dog. And the newspaper printed it. My sister is hoping for the same respect.
Y'all stepped into a gold mine with this guy. He really did write the songs that make the whole world sing, like his song said.
Ironic that his biggest hit was the song Love on the Rocks, which was written by Patti Kristoff.
Except he didn’t write that song that made the world sing lol
@@jerryboese8820 how ironic. I just looked that up. You're right.
he didnt write 'mandy' either, it was scott english
@@trhansen3244 That was Neil Diamond.
I agree with the person who has suggested Neil Diamond. “Hello again” is beautiful it always makes me emotional 😭
So many great songs by niel diamond... today's favorite (changes almost daily 😄) is I've Been This Way Before 🤷♀️
Same, Neil Diamond is awesome - can't go wrong with his songs!
Hello Again was one of his biggest hits and was written by his wife Jennifer. She also went on to write the song The Rose.
Great song!
little story about this: originally he wrote the song naming it "Brandy". However, the group Looking Glass released their song called "Brandy", so, Mr Manilow simply changed the tile of his song to "Mandy".
I am a total 'FANILOW'! He ruled the radio from the mid 1970 through the early 80s. Barry had many ballads hits (Could It Be Magic, Weekend In New England, Even Now), uptempo hits (It's A Miracle, Copacabana) and iconic songs (I Write The Songs, Can't Smile Without You). BTW: "Mandy" was a #1 international hit in 1974.
Manilow used to play piano for Bette Midler before he hit it big Songs to listen to Could it be magic, can't smile without you, Daybreak Coupacaba. Last one I can't spell ...lol.Mandy was 1975.
I was going to mention that. Thanks for remembering, too.

Always loved Berry Manilow. Women were in love with him, but he plays for the other team. His career spanned more than 50 years. He did it all ...singer-songwriter, arranger, musician, producer and actor.
Now what Im gonna say was said back in the early 80's so no disrespect to anybody but i use to have a boss that was so in love with Barry Manilow and when anybody would say that he was gay she would say, I volunteer to go find out for sure!!!🤣🤣
Turns out Mandy was Randy.
He also has a Christmas album which is just wonderful.
Barry Manilow at his best is called “Trying to get the feeling “. Classic
The dude is 78 and still doing concerts. No one can contain the legend of this Barry!
Barry Manilow was my favorite!!! He was the king of the ballads in the 1970s and is one of the most successful musical artists ever. He took a lot of crap in the early years because he wasn't considered "cool" but his fandom was legion! He's had so many hit songs and in later years (the late 80s and 90s) he did other genres like jazz and blues. He still tours, but as what happens with age, the voice isn't the same. Still, he's a legend!

Mandy was Manilows' first hit in 1973. The song was presented to him by Clive Davis, the head of Arista records. The original title was Brandy and the tempo was faster. Barry changed it to Mandy and rearranged it to what is called a power ballad. That launched his career. If you want an upbeat tune from him, try listening to "Copacabana" or "Daybreak". His masterpiece, I believe is "Weekend in New England." Thanks! Love your channel.
My daughter will tell you how much of a Barry Manilow fan I am. I have loved this man since I was 13/14 yrs old I am 57 now and he's still the man..Luther Vandross was asked when he wants to set the mood who does he put on? He said Barry Manilow
Jay, all 3 vids today have had audio issues.
Sounds like skipping or interference, but only happens when song is played, not when you are just talking.
thanks, thought it was my headphones, guess not
@@cjpew nope, not your ,or any, headphones. I'm hearing it through my computer speakers.
Yep. Definite audio issues today.
Almost sounds like a dirty album 😊
I Write the Songs was a huge hit for him.
My wife and I fully appreciate your review, your reactions, your comments, your perception. Truly a wonderful review. Superb!
The great Manilow, his voice is just so pure and sweet and also great piano player. Oh, how I miss the 70s. He’s up there with Barry Gibb.
“I write the songs”, “Ready to take a chance again” and “Could it be magic” are another few tracks from Barry Manilow.
I played "Could it be the magic" for my friends (when the album came out) and my friends were blown away!!!
Ironically he didn't write 'I Write the Songs'.
Barry has tons of hits. He began as a commercial jingle writer. He’s amazing. One Voice is my personal favorite. He layers his own voice in amazing harmonies using his “one voice”.
Love VSM
Barry Manilow.."It's a miracle " is an awesome song
Early 70's, I remember my very cool aunt listening and swooning over Barry Manilow. He was quite a performer and songwriter. he wrote a lot of commercials too.
Yes, finally. Barry Mailow is so insanely talented. So glad you decided to do this one!

It's not upbeat but "Could it be Magic" is magnificent. Other great ones: "Daybreak" "I Write the Songs" "It's a Miracle" "Let's Hang On" "Read 'Em and Weep" "Somewhere in the Night"
Yes! Daybreak and Could it be Magic.
I've been a huge fan of Barry since I was in the 3rd grade 50 years ago. I purchased his greatest hits from Amazon 2 months ago and for the first time I truly listened to the lyrics of Could This Be Magic during my commute to work and this song gave me goosebumps
When our daughter was born in 1975 we were expecting another boy, so we didn't have a girl name. We were pleasantly surprised when we had a girl, so we named her Mandy after the #1 song at the time.
I love Barry Manilow!!!❤❤❤
Barry! Now here's a rabbit hole to explore - he has so many great songs. My absolute favorite of his is 'I Made It Through The Rain' - it came out around the same time that I finished a long childhood cancer battle. It's my survivor song. 🙂🎗
Barry was popular mid to late 70's.. His songs mostly always starts out soft and crescendos toward the end.. like a big finish. "Time In New England" is one of my favorites by Barry.
Richard Marx is another great piano/singer. "Right Here Waiting" and "Hold On To The Nights" are excellent reaction videos
My #1 too!
His catalog is ridiculous! Barry is one of the greatest!
Barry Manilow's 'I Write the Songs" was one of his biggest hits!
Barry is legendary! Check out "Weekend in New England" 🥰
You have officially become “Fanilows” and he had many hits! 70’s
Oh man I have heard this song in so many years. It’s great to hear this again it’s probably been about 40 or 45 years since I heard this. Makes me realize that this tune is absolutely timeless.
I had forgotten how great it is. Hey, Barry was big time in the 70’s. Very popular.❤
He is still performing in his 80's I have been to several of his early concerts late 60's n 70's. This is my favorite song of his n even named my cat Mandy I play this song on my piano all the time. 3 other favorites are Looks Like We Made It, I Write The Songs n Could It Be Magic. Barry, Elvis, John Denver n Righteous Brothers were part of my life. I met Barry once, John 9 times, Righteous Brothers 2 times n got to be friends with Charlie Hodge Elvis confident n best friend for years after Elvis died. N I went to the Aloha concert 1973. I have always loved your reactions Keep the videos coming
Most of his best songs have the same vibe. Weekend in New England, Somewhere in the Night, Even Now, Looks Like We Made it. His more high energy hits are It's a Miracle and Copacabana
More Manilow songs: It's a Miracle; Copacabana ; Can't Smile Without You; Looks Like We Made It; I Write the Songs; Daybreak; Some Kind of Friend; Weekend in New England

This is a cover. The original was called Brandy. You should seek out the concert version when he duets with his younger self. I've been to over 220 Barry Concerts, since 1978. With another 7 next year. He is like a great wine, getting better and better with each passing year. Even at 78 he is still amazing..........
Growing up tough in the '70s/80s you could not say you were a fan. I had the privilege to double date with a friend to a Barry concert. Not the lady I would wanted that memory with but enjoyed the show never-the-less.
Mandy was going to be Brandy but the band Looking Glass had a hit with a song called Brandy so Barry had to change the name at the last minute. You should hear their song Brandy as well.
