I SHOULD have been prepared for such a brilliant work, but I wasn't! This is a really great album. Each song is carefully crafted and tells a terrific, current story. Bravo, Barry!

[lauralee0713]

Love Barry no matter what!

[MyToita]

@lauralee0713 no importa qué! no entiendo que quieres decir con eso se mas concreto por favor si no qqqqqqq

These 2 songs are absolutely wonderful. Great storytelling in a lyrical format! I LOVE this CD. 15 Minutes is a keeper! I bought it from QVC.

[wackyjabber]

Barry could have been singing about Amy Winehouse.

[nemeckathleen1]

Another hit what wonderful music & lyric's...Great new album of songs. I always loved your creative side...You sound great I'm glad for you....These songs sound wonderful too. Right on the money! Keep it up!

I'm not a fan of most of the new tracks, but Train Wreck is so good.

[waynebrasler]

Barry's challenge is he so often is regarded as behind the times when in truth he is always ahead of the times. The New York Times review of this outstanding album is particularly vitriolic and dealt much more with Barry than the music. He expects his audience to come to with intelligence and maturity and gives them full measure in kind. I am proud to love what he does.

[mola211211]

is he even sing ????

[Mariannalow]

@mola211211 he usually sings live but he was just getting over bronchitis so I think he lip sang some of the songs which is not his style. He is awesome though....

15 Minutes is a work of art but there is something about 'Slept Through the End of the world' that has hit the spot with me...can't explain it but wow what an impact! Thank you Barry, didn't realise I was waiting for this until it came x

[tallboyandy23]

Thats a lot to come from being your "Security adviser" from Dress Circle Covent Garden. I was the one who got you the Black Vehicle, at D,Circle. Then guided you into the builing wto meet Murray... Im on video on you tube. Respect to you and your talent...

[tallboyandy23]

Amazing peice of music, pure Genius if you ask me.

I got given the album & have not stopped playing it!! .

Well if this is what Mr Manilow can produce .

Then what has he been doing all these years ???

Maybe things wouldnt have been so "Corny" and a "Joke" for some people to mock. But never the less, im Proud to OWN this amazing peice of History and love it.

Mr Manilow, i take my hat off to you.

An Award should "yours" if i was any influence......

[123Rockchild]

Ohhh.... I really like these two songs! The "Slept Through the End of the World" song is so pretty. "Trainwreck " is classic Manilow. Barry has done it again!

[PeteLI66]

These two songs are for me clearly the best on the album.

[MsLasvegashilton]

I love all of the songs-Barry had me with Bring On Tomorrow, but THIS one, has to be my favorite on the CD(#1). Sounds like classic Barry to me. ;)

[TheLyonsbj]

there is no one like Barry Manilow... I love him & his music... and so happy 15 Minutes is here.... GREAT JOB as usual...and thank you!!!

[Raquel1285]

Barry, you're back in our arms again....

I'm an Avid fan of yours ever since I was in high school and until now that I'm married with 2 kids. Thank you for all your songs that truly inspires me a lot. I love all of your songs from Mandy through this latest one :Slept Through the End of the World". Congratulations in advance, I'm sure its gonna hit in the market all over the world. Love you so much Barry.

[mrsshorty]

if any critic puts this album down in any way they need to turn in their critic credentials and their ear for music. this is absolutely a  perfect album in every way. i love you, Barry!

[tyler0983]

Great voice! Mike lent and ken berry are great gutairist who had such feel to the song!

[manilooney7]

mmmmm gorgeous song barry,,ahhhh

[lanikaibabe]

I was in the audience! This was an amazing evening! Barry is back! Slept through the end of the world is my fav. Thanks for posting!

[denisecolvin]

Thanks so much for posting these for those of us who couldn't see the QVC show.

[JusticeForTheDead]

now THIS song is the type of stuff he should be doing with most of his songs. the other stuff is quite dated, this stuff is so timeless and classic that it soars!!!

[dwsingrs]

@JusticeForTheDead

Just curious, how does anyone rationally determine that moment when stuff becomes "dated"? How about Duke Ellington's maxim, "If it sounds good it IS good," regardless of when? Had one never heard any of his songs, how could s/he tell it was "dated"? Just because someone said so?

[tyler0983]

These are so beautiful! Great to hear some original songs from the man himself!

[bornagainbarryfan]

Stunning performance of two breath taking songs

[gooner191259]

What a beautiful song!!

[luizotaviobarros]

This has got to be one of Manilow's best live performances of the last 10 years.
