More quotes by Barry Manilow
The melody seems to have gone to the country. The country music seems to still have melody and interesting lyrics. But pop music, you've got to really listen hard to somebody who's doing a good melody and a good lyric.
Barry Manilow
I believe that we are who we choose to be. Nobody is going to come and save you. You've got to save yourself. Nobody is going to give you anything. You've got to go out and fight for it.
Barry Manilow
You know, when I did 'American Idol' the three times, I tried to tell these kids you have to tell the story of the lyric.
Barry Manilow
I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life. Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time. No one person or material thing could ever come close to the feeling I get when the music is right.
Barry Manilow
I've always wanted to marry Elton John.
Barry Manilow
Misfits aren't misfits among other misfits.
Barry Manilow

The public needs to know - they need to know as much about atrial fibrillation as they do about cancer and diabetes.
Barry Manilow
Atrial fibrillation has been the low man on the totem pole and so were just trying to get more visibility about this particular disease and how dangerous this could be.
Barry Manilow
I've been up, down, trying to get the feeling again. All around, trying to get the feeling again. The one that makes me shiver, made my knees start to quiver.
Barry Manilow
The dark night of the soul for me was one night in Florida, when I had been on the road for about four years and I realized that everybody around me was on my payroll, that my old friends hadn't been in touch with me and my family didn't know where to get me. I was a very unhappy guy and it was because I was really alone.
Barry Manilow
For a Jewish guy, I've recorded a lot of Christmas albums.
Barry Manilow
No one person or material thing could ever come close to the feeling I get when the music is right.
Barry Manilow
Yeah, I'm old as the hills and you would think I'd be out to pasture someplace because I've done everything, but nothing has changed.
Barry Manilow
I stay glued to my piano and my work. I don't look up. I write, I produce, I do the next project, I do my job. I don't look up, and I try to be kind. I try to be kind to people. That's what I do.
Barry Manilow
I think my music is like anchovies - some people like it, some people get nauseous.
Barry Manilow
I think the people who are out there for fame get themselves in a lot of trouble.
Barry Manilow
I was always into the music. Music, in general, saved my life. But the fame part... I would look up, see what was going on around me, the reporters and photographers and all, and then I would just go back to making my music.
Barry Manilow
I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life.
