Could It Be Magic? Yes! Barry Manilow Tribute

Barry Manilow’s “One Voice” is wonderful! In fact, “It’s a Miracle”. For over 30 years, Barry has written beautiful music and performed before millions of people all over the world. Because of his talent and his warmth, we who have seen Barry in person feel like we’re “Old Friends”.

I love Barry, but that’s ok. My husband loves him, too.

Being from the same generation as Barry, I feel like he’s been a big part of my own musical experience throughout my life. “The Kid Inside” me grew up in Philadelphia. Some of my friends even danced on American Bandstand celebrating the “Bandstand Boogie”. Later when I moved to New York, I marveled at how Barry was able to capture the throbbing energy of that city with “New York City Rhythm”.

And while I never went to the “Copacabana”…I feel like I went there with Barry. In fact, all the people who love Barry’s music have been to the Copa….Copacabana.

Barry once sang “I Write the Songs” and he sure does. His talent for writing music and performing are legendary, but Barry is also successful performing music of other composers as well.

So whether he is performing his own music or another’s, his talent as an arranger can never be underestimated. He has the power to make music come alive.

“Even Now”, so many years later, Barry still has it. If possible, his it is more powerful than ever. His voice is stronger than ever and his presence is mesmerizing.

So Barry, “Looks Like We Made It”. You’re here, I’m here. Your fans are everywhere. So you sing, and we’ll listen. When you sing, we all have “The Best Seat in the House”.

Barry’s new music makes my heart soar. Wow! “Sweet Heaven I’m in Love Again”.

Join us this weekend. We’re going “Barry”, along with Movies, Broadway, Singers and Beyond.
