We saw Berry Manilow in concert, which I didn't think I'd like, but he puts on an excellent show.  It is sad to hear that he now has cancer.



I saw him one time as well @libertybele . Really good show. And you really can't argue with his voice or lyrics. I am, as well, sad to hear that he has cancer. Could This Be The Magic is an excellent piece.

Did he show off any of his commercial jingles? "Grab a bucket and mop!  Scrub the bottom and top!  There is nothing so clean,  as my French Fry machine!  You deserve a break today, so get up and get away...to McDonald's!!

No jingles that I can recall,  happy77   I was entertained by the 'theatrics' in his show and many of his songs.  He's a showman and a singer;  quite talented.  I was never a Manilow fan, but I thoroughly enjoyed the concert.

"I am stuck on band-aid"  --- it's lasted ---State Farm  as well (classics)

Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Romans 12:16-18

Mandy is my favorite of his...so beautiful ....I have just his piano music on my ipod (ya, I still use it every now and then) .... so relaxing.

His music is not my cup of tea, but he is extremely talented as a musician...perhaps one of the  best I've ever seen.  He's that good at it!

His jingles have become classics:  "I am stuck on band-aids".....

His original title for that was "Brandy," but that title was already taken (by Looking Glass?), so he changed it to "Mandy."

Ah, yes, the Very Strange Medley.
