Barry Manilow Greatest Hits This is what Barry Manilow is all about. This CD is excellent. NO one sings Memory as well as he does. This CD is a must have for anyone who just like to listen to good music where you can still understand the lyrics.
Track title discrepancy
It's for the alternate compilation released several years later. Although the review inlcuded here is for the correct album, the track listing included here IS NOT the corresponding track listing for the original "Greatest Hits Vol 2" release that the review and album cover posted here are referring to.
Even more hits
is this guy prolific or what? Good CD with a lot of the songs you love.
Let's Hang On
Well, it's a great CD. I must admit, I bought this CD only because I heard the Barryitized version of "Let's Hang On" and I just HAD TO HAVE IT! I had all the other songs on other CDs already. Only 10 songs, but a great collection.
"Let's Hang On" is my favorite. Duh. Who woulda thunk it! I put the car windows down and blast it until the (other) nuts on the road cry for mercy! Of course, "Dirt Cheap" has that great, heavy dance-to-me beat. And I always enjoy "Read `Em and Weep. " There are the beautiful others, including "One Voice" and "Memory. " Let's not forget the uplifting and encouraging "I Made it Through the Rain," which I betcha has helped a lot of people get through some baggage, including me.
A great CD and I am glad I bought it. Com-mon, ya spent more for a cupacoffee and a bagel.
Update: April 2008
My 15 year old granddaughter who insists she hates Barry Manilow music, was singing her little heart out with "Let's Hang On" in the car yesterday. I had to keep playing it over and over in the car for her. I consider this quite an accomplishment. Another closet Manilow fan. But she threatened my life if I tell anybody she was singing along with Barry, so please, don't tell anyone. I value my life :-)
