Hi Everybody!
This month’s MTV comes from our 2008 tour. That’s 15 years ago!
I thought it would be fun to try and take our Las Vegas “Music and Passion” concert on the road and show it to everyone in the country.
It was one of the biggest and most elaborate shows that we ever toured with.
It...
Hi Everyone,
This month’s Manilow TV episode is very special.
It’s an event that happened in Denver, after the last show of the last American tour. I called the evening “Midnight With Manilow”.
I wanted to do a free show for fans and friends who have been with me since we began tourin...

Hi Everyone,
This month’s video goes all the way back to… two months ago - May 2014!
It’s not a video that I would exactly call “from the archives”, but it IS in the archives now and it’s a show that we’ve gotten lots of response about.
This month...
Here’s an entertaining show from the Las Vegas Hilton in 2009. We’d been there for five years and changed the name from “Music and Passion” to “Ultimate Manilow” because of the success of the Greatest Hits CD.
We even re-did the opening film. Very exciting opening.
In this show, we were celebra...
Hi Everyone,
This month’s video is one-of-a-kind.
In 2006, while we were at the Hilton, I began recording a run of albums that paid tribute to the music of various decades.
The first was “The Greatest Songs of the Fifties” which amazingly entered the charts at #1.
That album was followed by “...
One Night With Barry Manilow
BBC One
Hi everyone,
This month’s episode is another one of those fantastic BBC music specials. I wish they would do that kind of special on American television. But they still do music specials in England and I’m so grateful that they’ve asked me to perform on...
I hope you’ve all been enjoying this very rare part of our website. And amazingly, there’s more where this comes from!
This month’s ManilowTV is a very important evening of my life and career. This was the show we did at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, in 2004. And what a show that was!
After over 3...
Hi Everyone,
This month’s rare video is the 2001 Houston Rodeo. We had done the Houston Rodeo many years ago and I remembered that it was a great experience. This turned out to be another one.
The audience was just as excited as I remembered, the huge rodeo was just as thrilling as I remember...
Hi Everyone,
This month’s Manilow TV is a rare find, indeed. The Sheba Foundation, a non-profit organization in Israel supporting the Ethiopian Jewish community of Israel, chose to honor me for their yearly dinner in 1999.
It was definitely an honor and a wonderful evening.
I had no ide...
Hi Everyone,
This month’s MTV is another favorite. It’s the full concert of one of the shows from the “Clicker” Tour.
I must admit that this tour was one of my favorite tours.
I loved doing the show every night because
a) the band was sensational. Only five guys playing behind me that sound...
Summer of '78 Special
VH1
March 10, 1997
Hi Everyone.
This month’s episode of ManilowTV is a rare TV show. I taped this one for VH-1 in 1997 when they were doing their “70’s month”. I had just finished recording “Summer of ‘78” so it was a perfect fit.
When I got to the studio, I real...
Happy Birthday to me! Happy Birthday to me!
Happy Birthday dear me! Happy Birthday to me!
It’s my birthday month. I am as old as the hills! But I still look fabulous! And most important of all, I still feel fabulous!
This month’s MTV comes from 1994. We were on a summer tour and played a lot ...
Marc has been suggesting that I look at this performance for months now. When I finally looked at it, I was knocked out.
This episode was taped in Australia during the Greatest Hits And Then Some tour in 1994 and it’s a killer!
Debra Byrd, Billy Kidd, Gina Taylor and the talented band are sensa...
Hi Everyone,
We found a real goody from the summer of 1993.
It was a medley of “Firsts”.
It was our first State Fair. We did a bunch of them that summer and the audiences were always great even if the accommodations weren’t!
They always set up the amusement parks right near the stage, so we w...
Hi Everyone,
This month’s Manilow TV is another real rare one.
We only played The Philippines once in my entire career and it was a once in a lifetime experience for me.
The audiences in Manila and Cebu were beyond my wildest expectations. 50,000 people filled up each of the arena shows there.

The Barry Manilow Concert Showtime
March 18th, 1982
We’ve decided to show the Showtime Concert that aired on Showtime on March 18th, 1982.
It’s very rare and out of print. There are some great songs in this concert and I think it will bring back some terrific memories to friends and fans.

Copacabana The Movie
This month’s video is my one and only starring film role!
I got to play Tony in the TV film version of “Copacabana”.
I learned a lot making this film. I learned that the crew of a film work the hardest of anyone.
I learned that making a film is all about the lighting....
