I want to hear him SING, not talk. I also dont listen to the radio to hear DJs talking. Great song but i will find one without the talking for my playlist
Had the privilege to be 2 feet away from him at Tower Records in London about 15 years ago with him signing cd's for people. As I watched a young woman asked me if he was someone famous. Staggering. A musical entertainer genius really.
I'm just too young for this.. Cuz I'm just 19 and 2 years ago.. My exlove send me this song and he wanted to tell me.. He want take a chance again with me.. But that time I didn't know much English enough.. And I thought was a song and I never feel it.. And after we broke up.. I relized this song is meant a lot to me... :/
BARRY MANILOW! Great ballad from a great singer and performer! I view Barry Manilow as one of the top two singers of the past 60 years! He deserves great praise! Barry's music is heartfelt, beautifully sung and phrased, and sung with passion.
By the way, that other great singer is another great. His name is Frank Sinatra! These two singers have sung thousands of great songs!
der is only one barry manilow... im lucky to know his songs... nit like now a days the singers are just singing for the sake of money but they dont have any talent.
This is my favourite Barry song, but hardly anyone seems to know it. Well, non-fans, at least. First heard it on the movie Foul Play, which got me into his stuff, and then recently used hilariously on Family Guy. Saw him last night in London, but unfortunately he didn't sing this one. Never mind, was still amazing to see a living legend in the flesh.
There are NO singers out there today of his calibre. He is STILL one of the professionals who gets it right everytime and is also humble. He's like a music machine. What is also incredible is how amazing is voice is just straight off cold like that. He's got near perfect pitch, like an instrument. I really feel for the kids growing up now since music has become part of the whole corporate machine. If there ARE any singers/musicians like this, you really have to go and search for them.
@FredericaBimble I sing for Heavy Metal projects, but admire those that can really sing. You are dead on about his pitch and how natural his voice is. He is an amazing talent with beautiful catchy tunes that transcend generations. He is remarkable
@FredericaBimble Well the benefit of this guy is that he's versatile. He could be taken like a pop singer but he could also play vegas or go out on tour with soft rock bands. Nobody today is a triple threat like that. Not Ozzy, not Justin Bieber, Britney... its actually pretty dumb, in my honest opinion. Everyone but Bieber couldn't hack it last decade when people were grooming them that way and hid behind President Bush. Then it all fell apart and ever since have been trying for a "comeback."
This musician will never fade. Talent Lasts forever. He is superb !!!
