I like the bad boys…
Naw, naw! That’s all wrong! Zap is like neither of those but he does look great in a suit and has hand cuffs:)
Manilow for sure. His “Keep Each Other Warm” song is the best. He even looks a little like Rod Stewart, who kicks ass too.

The list could go on and on, ad infinitum.[/quote]
Leave the Carpenters out of that list, buddy!!!

I love Sinatra. No idea who that guy was though.
From the greatest TV show ever.
Then again these guys make a strong case.

Coming to America
Song sung blue
Kentucky Woman
Neil’s da shit!
Neil Diamond no doubt-more of a rocker.
Manilow more of a lounge singer,great voice though.

We only get to choose between Manilow and Diamond for greatest of all time?

He meant least worst.

SongNazi to Barry Manilow: “NO LOVE FOR YOU!”
I’m surprised this one hasn’t made into the mix:
Neil RULES!

dude, you just cataloged (sp?) my dream library.
Is this the…‘two men your mother forced you to listen to’ thread? I’ve got a bit of respect for Neil Diamond…but Barry Manilow…I can’t stand him.
There are two songs in this world that immediately spring to mind that I wish were never written or sung, one of them is ‘walking on sunshine’ by Katrina and the Waves, the other… ‘copacabana’ by Manilow. They are hell on earth. Ear bleeding material.
If you combine the two they still aren’t even in the same universe as Michael Jackson.
