Hard to believe… at that time, you had been singing those songs for at least 25 years, but you sing with such emotion and exuberance they sound new. Love this! ❤️

Barry.....Still one of your best, especially "Daybreak". I have not heard that whole song in any video in a long time. I agree with you too, isaisabel. Barry Manilow forever.......Betsy

[@isaisabel8086]

Thank you so much user-ko9sf9kx6o Barry forever, obviously ! ❤

[@betsybasile-n6d]

Barry.. This one will always remain #1 on my Medley Playlist. I have seen quite a few, but you can't beat this one and I love the way you sing " Daybreak" . It is hard to find a video with that song. It is one of my favorites. You are so bouncy, energy driven and the facial expressions you use suits every song you do. Also, you picked the perfect songs for the Medley. Barry.....I will always be your devoted fan. We are much older now 76 and 80, but I still love every one you do. Love you always.................Betsy Basile

[@user-sg9bi7vc2u]

Barry's musical career was peaking when these songs were written. Barry wrote most of the songs for the outstanding movie "Foul Play." An Outstanding career Barry Manilow.

[@trudyappleby1622]

Classic Barry Manilow, the soundtrack to my life! He’s been there in my life since the 70’s. I’ve followed everything he’s done, sang every song! Yet the times I went through he had no idea. Yet the music he sang did! This one’s for you is so powerful, it moves me every time. I don’t think we get music like this anymore except from Barry. He still sets my heart alight. See you soon in Leeds U.K. bring it on!!! ♥️♥️♥️🙏

SO LUCKY..... YOU ARE. I WAS ABLE TO SEE BARRY IN MPLS IN LATE 70S. WISH ITD BEEN MORE

[@betsybasile-n6d]

When you talk Medleys, Barry Manilow is the MAN. You always choose the right songs to put together and this one is still my favorite, but the medley on Broadway is pretty close to it, except you bounce ,run and dance up and down this stage. The other one you are sitting much of the time but your arrangement of songs is better than this one, Love you Barry, the BEST..................Betsy

[@BetsyBasile]

Barry....Still my Number 1 Medley. It has been such a hard day for me today, but as soon as I chose this, I started to feel better as you are very fabulous in this one. Your range in your vocal cords is just amazing and all these songs are my all time favorites. Love you Barry,..........................................Betsy

I am completely agree with you, Betsy. This medley is unforgetable for me. And when Barry sings Daybreak , his talent as a musician and as a showman, cross the screen. I think that we are very lucky for living at the same time than him. Barry Manilow forever ! My best wishes from Spain. Isabel ❤

Just watching tonight so I don't miss a minute of this superior Medley. You really sing this like you love all the songs................BB

My very first concert. Maybe 75 or 76 in San Carlos at the Circle center. That was back when a comedian would open for the musical artist. Jimmy Walker opened for Barry that night! Still love Barry to this day! ❤💙💚💛

[@betsybasile-n6d]

Barry....Love this, my #1 Medley. Something really odd happened to me yesterday. I was watching NCIS, the old ones and I kept looking at Mark Harmen the Boss if you never watched it, and I could not figure out who he reminded me of and then it hit me. He could be your twin and the two of you were my favorite entertainer and he my favorite actor at that time. WOW. How great was that. I could watch NCIS the whole day,but of course I had to stop at 7pm as it was your turn for me to watch you for 3 hours. Yesterday was really grear for me............................Betsy J. Basile

What a performer. He gave it his best every time he went onstage.

[@betsybasile-n6d]

Barry....I haven't heard this one for awhile, but it still is in my top 2 Medleys that you have done. You are so peppy in this one, going up and down the stage, clapping your hands and songs you picked are impeccable and that is why you are so good. Also, " Daybreak " is one of my favorites that we really can't get the whole song except here. Love to you...Betsy Blue-Eyes

What energy and all the audience was screaming and I even know what face you made when that silly mic acted up. Love you always, Barry~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Betsy

I am only a couple years younger than you and I love the song on your LIVE CD about New Year's Eve and you say you are singing it for our generation of which I am one. I have always loved everything you have done.

[@betsybasile-n6d]

Number 1 Medley of all the ones I have listened to. You just seem so happy and moving back and forth on the stage time after time. Daybreak is Really spot-on, Barry. You picked all the right songs though. Everything in this one is the BEST, but then you are THE BEST so what do I expect? I just wish I had the opportunity to meet you even if it were only for 5 minutes. It would be the answer to my dreams that I have had since 1974. Love ya.....Betsy Basile

Barry .....I think you just topped yourself on my Medley as Number 1 on my playlist. I found a couple of days ago a Medley I never saw before and it is one with the Brooklyn Blues. New York City Rhythm, Avenue C and Woodside Inn and a couple of others. These two are neck and neck for my Number 1 spot. Love them both almost as much as I have loved you since 1974...............................Betsy Blue -Eyes

[@BetsyBasile]

Still love this Medley and how you bounce around the stage and make the facial expressions that are perfect with that song. I really like it when you you sing "Somewhere in the Night" and towards the end you cross your fingers. I know all the words to all the songs, all your moves and the way you make certain expressive eyes and mouth. I could do this Medley with you and you would not believe it. Love you, Barry..............................................................
