Barry Manilow performs "It's A Miracle" live, taken from The Kentucky Derby Concert at Freedom Hall in 1975.
A note from Barry...
This one is a very rare recording. It’s a show we did to open the music portion of the Kentucky Derby in 1975.
My small and talented band and my three beautiful friends and background singers had just begun our tour. “Mandy” had shot to the #1 spot and “It’s A Miracle” was moving up the chart. We were having a great time on the road, but we were broke.
I remember that I bought a Ronco Rinestone Studder that I saw being advertised on some late night show. All of us sat in one of our hotel rooms and studded the skirts that the girls wore, because I couldn’t afford to buy them fancy outfits. (Check out their skirts and you’ll see our handiwork!).
We were so excited to be on the same bill as Blood, Sweat and Tears and headliner, Roberta Flack. The crowd was very kind to us and we left the stage on a real high.
Hope you enjoy this blast from the past!

LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
You wouldn't believe where I've been
The cities and towns I've been in
From Boston to Denver
And every town in between
[Verse 2]
(Everyone looks the same)
The people they all look the same
(Yes, the same)
Oh, only the names have been changed
(Just the names)
But now that I'm home again
I'll tell you what I believe
[Chorus]
It's a miracle (miracle)
A true blue spectacle
A miracle come true
(Whoa ohh ohh ohh)
We're together, baby
I was going crazy
Till the miracle came through
(Ohh ohh ohh ohh)
Now you're here and my arms are around you
And, baby, there'll be dancing in the street
For the miracle (miracle)
A true blue spectacle
The miracle is you
(Woo! Hoo hoo hoo hoo)
(Hoo!)
[Verse 3]
I never knew you looked so good
Oh, I never knew anyone could
I must have been crazy
To ever have gone away
[Verse 4]
(Almost forgot you, babe)
I almost forgot what it's like
(Every night)
Oh, holding you near me at night
(Every night)
But now that I'm home again
You know that I'm home to stay
[Chorus]
'Cause it's a miracle (miracle)
A true blue spectacle
A miracle come true
(Whoa ohh ohh ohh)
We're together, baby
I was going crazy
Till the miracle came through
(Ohh ohh ohh ohh)
Now you're here and I'm feeling so good
And, baby, there'll be dancing in the street
For the miracle (miracle)
A true blue spectacle
The miracle is you
(Woo! Hoo hoo hoo hoo)
(Hoo!)
[Bridge]
Now you're here and my arms are around you
And, baby, there'll be dancing in the street
Ha, there's gonna be dancing in the street
Whoa ohh ohh ohh
Dancing in the street
[Interlude]
(Dancing in the street)
Dancing, dancing, dancing
(Dancing in the street)
Dancing, dancing, dancing
(Dancing in the street)
Dancing, dancing, dancing
(Dancing in the street)
[Outro]
For the miracle (miracle)
A true blue spectacle
The miracle is you
(Hoo! The miracle is you)
Hey, the miracle is you
(Hoo! The miracle is you)
Whoa, the miracle is you
(Hoo! The miracle is)
