ALBUM DISCUSSION...Barry Manilow

[stevew2]

Alright, I have to admit that I don't even OWN a Manilow cd, but have always liked "Mandy"..He does have a great voice , even thought he makes Clay Gaykin look like the Marlboro man! I would post about a Journey album, but apparently Mike saw fit to lay claim to every album they've released. Oooooohhhhh, just thought of one he hasn't...

I saw his show a few years ago, wasn't a HUGE fan, but loved the stage show, and the orchestra he was touring with. He's an incredible songwriter and his voice has really held up through the years.

I think "Weekend In New England" is just an incredible song.

I love that song, I know you like Copa Cabana

Of course I do.

I bet you do a good job on it

I agree Bobby! I forgot about that song. I just remembered that several years ago, he did a concert that was aired free on Direct T.V., and the concert was amazing! He had an orchestra accompany him, and I was very impressed. I wish I had a copy of that now. I do pick on him for acting like Richard Simmons, but he is an amazing singer. I don't get his version of the damn Journey song though...go back to originals Barry!

I only sing "Copa" when I've got my Carmen Miranda fruit hat, which is most of the time. LOL

He's been doing those songs of the '50's, 60's, 70's and 80's and I think his brain overshot his vocal chords when he picked "Open Arms". I know this is pissy to say, but I don't want to hear too many people do that song and the ones I do want to hear better be a male tenor or an exceptionally voiced female.


I like the idea of redoing songs, but some are just too iffy to touch.
