BARRY MANILOW - COPACABANA REACTION (REQUEST FOR KIMBERLY)

[@jjfurbable]

Lol your facial expression completely changed on that second verse.

[@allendixon1044]

Hhx I thought the same thing I think it was like you know she was putting herself there right I mean this is my opinion you know but I think you know that she was there herself and then it come to the Bad Endings you know and like she cut her head off you know what I'm saying

[@freddbarragan9635]

😺😺😺😺😺😺

[@sungodrah]

right I was just about to say THAT! lol a whole different song now ,Jayy .lol

[@inibrius5380]

It's such a great song. Sounds like so much fun but is SO dark.

[@sito7186]

It's a typical night in Rio

[@lordlightning2339]

Yes, so tragic

[@deannebenkert6700]

Great reaction, the audience goes wild when he sings this at his concerts & he always sings this in concert! He won a Grammy for this song!

[@LA-fz5qw]

Barry Manilow literally does write the songs that make the whole world sing weekend in New England my favorite Barry Manilow song Also the look on your face when the song took a turn for the dramatic was hilarious💕💕💕

[@gregoryadkins2213]

Yet his biggest hit-I Write The Songs.He had Nothing To Do With.It was written by Brian Johnston Of The Beach Boys.

[@Dexy83]

This song, no matter how dark, is my favorite because my Mom would blast this every Saturday morning while she cleaned the house. ❤️

[@JermainePerry-qu2et]

Great upbeat drama sad life journey almost dancing but back in day ordeal well done timeless music video

[@kristinabushnell3652]

It is kind of a dark song, but after a few drinks me and my sister's can absolutely kill it at karaoke, lol. Such a fun beat. Great reaction!! You're Awesome!!🙂

[@fidel2xl]

JAYY!!! You CRACKED me up with this reaction!! The way your facial expression suddenly changed during that 2nd verse was freaking hilarious..LMAO. I love it!! hahahahaha

[@fredmarinovich5477]

Barry Manilow started as a piano player for Bette Midler and went on to write the Jingles for many famous commercials including McDonalds and dr. Pepper

[@williamgallucci9913]

Login vibe and moves great reaction to a talented Barry m

[@raulnovoa6098]

Don't fall in love and those strings. Badass

[@patsloyan9755]

♥️♥️ Lovin me some Barry❣️. 🎶🎶 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🎶🎶🎶 ♥️♥️

[@shadowsgathered6878]

LOL, your expression was priceless! I saw him perform this back in the late '70s at one of his concerts. It was awesome because he is an awesome performer. I've always thought of Copacabana as Barry's most well-known song, although I could be wrong about that. Mandy is also very well known and one of my personal favorites. And yes, it is amazing to hear such a catchy song, one that makes you want to dance, about something so dark and "unsavory"? A similar song would be Mack the Knife by Bobby Darin. I don't think you've reacted to that yet, but hopefully you will. I think you'll like it, too. Thank you once again for such a real reaction!

[@marieriddick8388]

Oh my goodness, Jayy, your reaction was priceless. Your eyes said it all. Not only did she lose her youth, but her mind as well.

[@lordlightning2339]

I legit started crying when he said 'she lost her Tony and lost her mind'

[@Rafferty_09]

YOUR FACIAL EXPERSSIONS MADE THIS VIDEO I LOVED IT

[@SatansSimgma]

Don't forget he wrote the State Farm and Band Aid jingles..

[@erichirsch583]

Hi there Miss Jayy you are looking amazing as you always do!! 🥰Barry had so many hits !! This was one of them!!

[@alvaroflores8831]

Barry usually sings of the beauty and longing of love. But here he is singing of the tragedy of love. One of the few songs he sings with this theme.

[@selectronium]

i am always amazed by a songwriter who can turn a tragedy into a bouncy disco tune... eek!

[@JamiJR]

The fact so many people don't know the Copacabana is a famous New York nightclub makes me feel so old. I'm Californian born and raised since 1976 and I knew that. Maybe because I watched a lot of I Love Lucy reruns as a kid.

[@suzanneprock7286]

Love Barry Manilow, he was huge in the 70's! A voice like no other!

[@shellymarquez9320]

I’ve always loved Barry, since I was young! (I’m 48 now). Back in 2009, he was doing a residency in Vegas. My husband, brother, sister in law and I were there, and I wanted so bad to see Barry, but none of them would go with me! They said they would drop me off and pick me up! I was crushed! Fast forward to 2012, Barry came to the Bay Area where I lived, so I bought tickets and my mother and I had a wonderful girls weekend and we both absolutely loved seeing him! Even at 70 something yrs old, his show was amazing! This song has always been one of my 16 yr old sons favorites! When he was 2, I would put on Karaoke music on the TV as background noise, and when this song came on he would light up, get excited and he knew ALL the words! He would sing it for anyone who would come to the house!💞💞💞💞

[@mikegarrens5286]

Nothing like Barry manilow telling you about life!!!!

[@richardbaker4068]

Love Love Love this song . An 80's classic Great Great!!!!!!

This song is awesome, and so is Barry. Mandy is a must. Thanks, Kimberly for this request. Thank *YOU* for this awesome reaction. Until next time, keep safe, and keep on keeping on.

[@peggyryan2851]

My favorite Barry Manilow.

[@tomski120]

Its all fun and games till someone pulls a gun lol your expression was priceless

[@lordlightning2339]

30 years of despair within the happy moments. It's like someone refusing to cry in spite of everything going on.

[@patriciawaring]

My favorite Barry Manilow song. Thank you! Love, from the Great State of Oklahoma, USA.🤍

[@jillk368]

The 80s had a bunch of really catchy, danceable, depressing songs. We Didn't Start The Fire, 99 Red Balloons and I'll Melt With You fit this category as well. Interesting reaction.

[@cindyshawver9986]

wow, i never was a big Manilow fan, but i was totally impressed by his dancing !!!......i had no idea he could do that.....LOL

[@mariflame1821]

LOL I loved your reaction on the Copa Cabana song. 😅 There is a movie called Copa Cabana based on this song with Barry playing Tony. Love Barry's music and the movie.

[@donnavalenzuela1142]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 just luv your expressions to songs especially when they catch you off guard👍🏼🤣🎼🎸🎤

[@MarcusC68]

Your facial reactions were fantastic!! 😆 🤣 😂

[@jomac2046]

A time when those that couldn't sing didn't.

[@patsloyan9755]

Sad Song , that you can’t help dancing to ❣️

[@martinsmusic1724]

A cheesy song - and I've always loved it!

[@craigbartlett5374]

Music is an amazing thing in how such a sad story can actually make you happy when you listen to it :)

[@ReactionsByJeff]

The story and song was made into a broadway musical in the 90s

[@richardbaker4068]

Its a typical night at an 80's disco club!!!!

[@maryellenazack4466]

There was very hot club in n.y.c. the copacabanna! 💞💕 love your reaction!

[@hah424]

Copacabana is a club in NYC. You know, nightclub disco drama!

[@almirandrade519]

Copacabana Brazil Rio De Janeiro my love Samba Bossa Nova e Etc

[@sheryljones5207]

Barry is so talented. Love hos music.

[@geoffelder2236]

Your reaction and your smile is exactly what disco music is all about! It may be cheesy or even silly, but the beats/grooves are still what makes these songs so endearing. I don't know how familiar you are to a few "classic" disco artists such as the Bee Gees, KC & The Sunshine Band, Barry White, Donna Summer, etc.. (You can't go wrong with most of their hits.) A few suggestions that represent disco that are some of my favorites: "Dance Across The Floor" (1978) by Jimmy "Bo" Horne (underrated hit), "Every 1's A Winner" (1978) by Hot Chocolate (I know, "You Sexy Thing" is their probably best known song, but I think this one's better), "I Get Lifted" (1975) by George McCrae (again, I know, "Rock Your Baby"...), and easily one of the coolest disco songs (in my opinion, anyway) is "The Groove Line" (1978) by Heatwave (I know, "Boogie Nights"..., but again, I think this is their best song). Anyway, I could name others all day long, but then I would be traveling down the disco "rabbit hole"!

[@freddingman2969]

If you like that rhythm, you should check out Gloria Estafan. 1,2,3 or anything else

[@fabian4ever69]

Your reaction was priceless...the story turned pretty quick..lol

[@stormdancer0]

You cannot miss with Barry Manilow One that not a lot of people know is When October Goes

[@ernestheron2008]

Probably and arguably the best song on the 2am paradise cafe album..I mean, how can you go wrong with Johnnie Mercer handling the lyrics and Manilow doing what he does best.. everything!!

[@anntaplin4960]

This song was turned into a full Musical and a TV movie (Barry playing Tony) about Lola and Tony. You need to watch that.

[@chucks9205]

Who played Lola?

[@anntaplin4960]

@@chucks9205 Annette O'Toole played Lola in the movie

I looove Barry Manilow. I'm a Fanilow lol. Check out the song Daybreak by him. I think you'll like it. 🎶💜

Hey Jayy, Copacabana was made into a movie.

GOtta watch Glee version, Where they act the lyrics out. And Melissa "Supergirl" Benoist overacts SO MUCH.

[@oscarantoniomoreno5247]

That went south quick.

[@filmsensei]

As usual you have the best reaction, LOL. It is deceptively perky song. You know who else sings like that is Lily Allen. She was a little flash in the pan in the mid to late 2010's (people either loved her or hated her) but she has a very light, feathery voice that sounds really upbeat until you really listen close to the words then you're like, "HUH?!" Anyway, I adore Barry Manilow. So sad he has retired for the most part. I never got to see him in concert and always wanted to.

[@rubbersole79]

Roxy Music - "If there is something" / Jane's Addiction - "Just Because"

[@djpaul146]

I did here that this song was a true story and it happened at the cobacabana club in rio it was just what I read on the Internet but it might not be true

[@joshuapeterson6072]

Never knew Copacabana was a country song.

[@Mike-fp5rc]

OK, see now this is what these "reaction" videos are supposed to be about. She like, "Shot" ... blood ... say what, who got shot?" LoL Our girl Jayy is a Jayynilow!

Ja, a very fun song hiding a rather tragic story-line. :-) Ist fictional though...not about any true event.
