Easily one of the most prolific and gifted artists of our time. His words, his delivery, his emotion and his beautiful music arrangements....can't be beat!
This is the most amazing live performance I have ever seen for a single song. So much emotion. I am 45 year old male rock fan from England and have seen hundreds of live concerts but this is the song that will stay with me forever. Simply awesome.
What an incredible powerful song and performance!!! Always have loved Barry. It would be absolutely fantastic to see one of his shows. Timeless music. I grew up in an age of such beautiful music. He touches my heart especially with those "baby blue eyes full of yes passion and meaning! I love you BarryM.!
gabrencel.. I'm a "biker" tatted and ringed and admit I've been a fan of his since his Carson Show appearance 30 plus years ago. The guy is fukin amazing!
This is his best vocal performance of those I've seen so far, in my opinion. I've realised what it is I love about watching him live - he sings like he means every single word, every single time. You know he can't possibly mean every word, and must be sick to death of singing the same songs, but he gives it his all.
Ah, sigh.. oh, this song is timeless. I loved this song when I was in H.S. I was very lucky to listen to this on the radio. Actual MUSIC, and talent. What's on the radio now? YUK
When Manilow was featured in Rolling Stone mag some years ago he attended a Prince concert with the writer. Bob Dylan once approached Manilow at a party and told him 'keep doin' what you're doin' man, it's inspiring all of us'
Looking back, I remember what drew me to him 35+ yrs ago ( when I was like 6 or 7). This is my favorite song of his. He is so sexy and I love it when he shows his teeth. Such passion.
O M G !!!! in tears ! How dare he sing this song , TO ME !!! THE COMMON PERSON ! wow ! thanks barry. My older brother loves you like you have no clue and he's married. My brother worships you. I like you but worship, well that is not possible in my little world. Hell, i could get hit by a bus today (walks with caution)...but thank you MR MANILOW, your music is well. to say it simple , TIMELESS> HUGS !
All those guys out there that mock Barry and call him gay should really watch all the passion he puts in this song.. THIS is what women are looking for ! Instead of mocking him you should take a page from his book ! Read all the comments from the women on here. Barry makes my heart melt!
Love his eyes ,,,ever so dreamy. Every one of his songs is exceptionally briliant and makes my day right. Just close your eyes and enjoy his music, like I do.
personally , i think that the name of this song should be changed to weekend in south carolina ! besides i have never been to new england. probally too cold for this florida snowbird !!
Thank you Barry Manilow as this song will always, always remind me of my first love and the love we had together. This is my Favorite performance of this wonderful song. Thank you for uploading it.
This may sound crazy but Barry Manilow reminds me of ABBA when you consider that they both broke through in the same year (1974) and needed only one word for their breakthrough hit (ABBA-Waterloo, B.M.-Mandy). And with that, they both rode a magic carpet that shaped music for the rest of the 70's.
What can I say?! My heart is thumping so fast after watching him sing that song! Barry really knows his stuff!!

@chrissilou813 I tried to emulate Barry many times, but every time, I ended up puking on my own shoes. Face it, there can be only one Barry!
Well, except maybe for Willy Wonka--he's a dead ringer!
