It was a crazy comeback year for Barry Manilow as he returned this year for a series of shows around the country and his dream musical coming to life. “This crazy year,” Manilow said in an interview with USA Today. “People always say the nicest things. All they want to tell me how much my music has meant to them and to have a selfie and I am happy to do it. They believed in me when I didn’t believe in me.”

Earlier this year, he played a sold-out run right here at Radio City Music Hall too. He also played a record-breaking residency at the Westgate Resort & Casino in Las Vegas with his ongoing “Barry Manilow – The Hits Come Home!” He officially broke Elvis Presley’s record of 636 shows at the venue’s International Theatre in September. Plus, his 30-year dream of bringing his original musical “Harmony,” to Broadway has finally come true. 

He’s capping the year off with “Barry Manilow’s A Very Barry Christmas,” a holiday special airing on NBC on the 11th of December. “I’d been doing this Christmas show (on the road) for about five years and I love it and the audience loves it. We changed the set around and we have snow and Christmas trees and the presents and it’s wonderful. When the curtain opens, it looks like a Christmas card,” the singer said about the show. “It’s a cut-down version of my 90-minute show but it’s the highlights – Christmas songs and some of mine that people love.”

Barry Manilow has had countless hit songs over the course of his career – seven decades to be exact! – and you may wonder what he will be playing when he arrives at Radio City.
