Barry Manilow (born Barry Alan Pincus; June 17, 1943) is an American singer-songwriter and producer. He is best known for such recordings as "Mandy", "Can't Smile Without You", and "Copacabana (At the Copa)".
In 1978, five of his albums were on the best-seller charts simultaneously, a feat equalled only by Herb Alpert, The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, and Johnny Mathis. He has recorded a string of Billboard hit singles and multi-platinum albums that have resulted in him being named Radio & Records' No. 1 adult contemporary artist, and winning three straight American Music Awards for favorite pop/rock male artist. Between 1974 and 1983 Manilow had three No. 1 singles and 25 that reached the top 40. Although not a favorite of music critics, Manilow has been praised by several well-known entertainers, including Sinatra, who was quoted in the 1970s saying, "He's next." In 1988, Bob Dylan stopped Manilow at a party, hugged him and said, "Don't stop what you're doing, man. We're all inspired by you."
Barry Manilow is the debut album by Barry Manilow. It was released as Barry Manilow in 1973, then re-mixed and re-released as Barry Manilow I in 1975.
"Could It Be Magic", "One Of These Days" and "Oh My Lady" were remixed at Media Sound Studios, NYC, April 1975 for the re-release on Arista Records. This version was also re-issued by Arista Records on CD.
Barry Manilow is the sixth self-titled album released by singer and songwriter Barry Manilow. Manilow released a total of six self-titled albums in his career: Barry Manilow (later re-released as Barry Manilow I), Barry Manilow II, Barry, Manilow, and this album with the same title as his first. The album was released in 1989, and reached Gold certification. This album also represented a hint of future album releases...95% of the songs were not written/co-written by Manilow, which had up until that point been rare. Manilow, known for being a composer, typically always stocked his albums with material he co-wrote with his celebrated lyricists. After the release of this album, the 1990s dawned and a new era in his career began as he embarked on introducing contemporary audiences to pop music of the 1930s through the late 1940s. This album is also one of his longest of original material, clocking in at nearly an hour. There are few up-tempo songs, favoring ballads of which he is known to perform.
"I Should Care" is a popular song by Axel Stordahl, Paul Weston and Sammy Cahn, published in 1944. It first appeared in the MGM film Thrill of a Romance. The original recording by Ralph Flanagan and His Orchestra, with vocalists: Harry Prime and The Singing Winds was made at Manhattan Center, New York City, on July 18, 1952. It was released by RCA Victor Records as catalog number 20-4885 (in USA) and by EMI on the His Master's Voice labels as catalog number B 10389.
The song has become a popular standard, and a jazz standard, with recordings by many artists.
Always and always now
Where there was just one
There'll be two
And you won't be alone again
I'm home again
Over and over now
We'll make up for nights that we missed
And kiss like we once kissed again
I'm home again
Close your eyes
I'll close mine
Remember how much we once had
And babe, I'm so glad
To be home again
Love you, I love you now, now
There's no one but you in my life
And I won't let you go again
See I'm home again
Oh close your eyes
I'll close mine
Remember how much we once had
And babe, I'm so glad
To be home again
Love you, I love you
Oh more then anything else in my life
And I won't let you go again
I'm home again
I'm home again
I'm home again
