  42. MP says – reply to this


    42

    I like Barry Manilow but that wasn't his best performance.



  43. 43

    It just sounds like a karaoke version. Doing a cover that sounds nearly identical to the original is pointless.



  44. 44

    THAT SOUNDS ABOUT AS BAD AS LETTY B WHEN SHE SCREAMS AND ORGASMS ALL OVER MY BEDSHEETS. WHICH REMINDS ME, OXYCLEAN DOES NOT REMOVE ALL STAINS!!!!

    I thought rick astley WAS dead.Re: LettyB – I changed my underwear today expecially for you!



  47. 47

    Perez never said Rick Astley was dead, he said Barry killed him with that HORRIBLE cover song.

    wow that was just plain awful



  50. 50

    HOLY SHIT HE HAS A FUCKING LISP!



  51. 51

    The Manilow wins every time for me.



  52. 52

    I will never understand why he's done that to his face!



  53. 53

    Okay whatever… Rick A- had blew it up big with this joint back in the day and maybe he's still doing his thing today…(I'll Google him)… so Mr M, is taking off on the joint/jam… GIVE THE MAN A BREAK…WTF!…Mr M is still a Legend in the Music industry with or without haters…SOOOOOO…blah…blah…blah!



  54. 54

    I am sure he sounds better when the polygrip doesn't give way.



  55. 55

    He got rick roll'd! Another thing rick ain't dead Perez.

  57. 57

    Damn, too much makeup and shit - what happened to his upper lip? where'd it go?



  58. 58

    Wow. Utter destruction.

    I didn't think that song could be any worse, but Manilow comes through.



  59. 59

    I like ANY version of that song!



  60. 60

    How many of you were even born when this song came out? Not many I am sure. Barry has been around for at least 35 years so I think he can do what ever the fuck he wants.



  61. 61

    He took a BIG BITE off this song!



  62. 62

    He just murdered that song! He should be shot! He needs to just give singing up…he looks freakishly weird when he sings.



  63. 63

    OMG, he gets paid $$ to do that huh?! Amazing, he doesnt make me wanna stab myself in the ears but he certainly isnt very good, kinda like the peeps on American Idol, "not terrible but wouldnt sell an album" yet here he is still making music & even more amazingly, people buy it! Its kinda sad



  64. 64

    Rick Astley is still alive:P



  65. 65

    That was way worse than being Rick Rolled.



  66. 66

    How very Vegas of him. IDK. Sounds OK. I'm kinda old though so what do i know huh?



  67. 67

    It's not horrible.



  68. 68

    Barry - no more covers get back to your own music!



  69. 69

    aww this song will never be the same…..



  70. 70

    I never saw Manilow's upper lip move through that whole song. How the hell does he do that????



  71. 71

    I love Barry Manilow, but he did butcher this song! That was horrible, but I still love Barry, and always will.



  72. 72

    I happen to be a fan of barry manilow. And although this isn't the greatest version of the song it's not all that bad. You people seriously need to grow up. if you don't like it well then don't listen to it. Get over urselves. who do you think you are jay z? yeah ok right. nice try!



  73. 73

    shiteous



  74. 74

    terrible



  75. 75

    It reminds me of Pat Boone's cover album of hard rock and heavy metal songs…I don't care for either one.



  76. 76

    I am not a fan of Barry nor am I a hater, but seriously some of you must be teenagers because you're going to go and talk shit about Manilow…when you have songs with lyrics like "Superman dat ho" (and yes I know what it means). I am 22 years old but you really have to have some respect for legends.



  77. 77

    gayez, you don't know shit about music so shut the fuck up. it was a crappy song to begin with. now it's neither better nor worse.

  78. ebee says – reply to this


    78

    HAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAA. this is just as corny as the original - it's just that we're in a different decade now.



  79. 79

    Re: StayTrue
    finally some fucking sense! people here are usually 14 yo's who know nothing about nothing and say leonardo di caprio is too old at 33 and compare him to zack from high school musical, for example. di caprio could kill zack in an acting duel.



  80. 80

    ok first its sad that manilow butchers aa song by a one hit wonder - i've heard better in karaoke bars, so i think rick is laughing his arse off, all the way to the bank..but more importantly

    what the fuck is wrong with barrys upper lip??! is it even there??



  81. 81

    Actually, I really don't hear anything wrong with it.



  82. 82

    The only Rick song I liked back in the day was Strong, Strong Man. Anyway, ya, this sounds like a bad karaoke version of the original. How embarassing for Barry Manilow!



  83. 83

    Oh those dentures!! And plastic surgery……………ugh.



  84. 84

    he looks sooo stretched !



  85. 85

    Oh my GAWD!!! Sounds like his dentures are slipping or something when he pronounces any word with the letter "S" in it!!! This is the worst…Poor Rick Astley…



  86. 86

    This is bad but yet you recommend Jesse M's song? I don't get it. I think this sounds fine.



  87. 87

    How can Rick Astley be rolling in his grave if he's still alive? Who ever has been posting lately is pissing me off! This site is such garbage now! You can tell at least 3 different people are posting and they're all idiots! There's not even any good stories being posted, just random facts and tidbits no one cares about!



  88. 88

    oh my lmaoo i just watched the video, does he have a lisp? he has some issues with pronouncing the S's



  89. 89

    It's not that much worse than the original. The original sucks enough.



  90. 90

    Dear god. I never had respect for Rick Astley's voice until I heard this… this… VOMIT come out of Barry Manilow's head. I would say lips but there apparently aren't any left.



  91. 91

    I



  92. 92

    Tell Clay Akin that his cover sucks… =)

    93

    Rick Astley is still alive, dumbass!!



  94. 94

    HA!!! I saw him on a PBS special and he did "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother." I was falling on the floor laughing. He can't move his face above his lower lip!! It's creepy but hilarious. Dude needs to lay off the Botox and surgery for a few years. Get some expression back man so when you crapitate pop music, we can see some emotion. Gawd, he can't even pucker his mouth to give a BJ.

    Re: If U Seek Amy! – Thank you!!



  96. 96

    THIS MADE ME THROW UP IN MY MOUTH A LITTLE.



  97. 97

    Rickrolling and the song itself is older than the fucking dinosaurs.

    Bel Air-ing is always classy.



  98. 98

    barry rolling?
    I'm sorry but it just isn't the same…



  99. 99

    Holy Fuck.
    I actually am feeling horrible for Barry.
    He is wearing lipstick, doing a robot bop move throughout… trying so hard to market himself…
    and it's soooooooooooooooo bad.
    His face…

    Like… Skeletor. You know, the baddest of the bad in cartoon land?
    He's well on his way to Michael Jacksonness.



  100. 100

    There was no good music in the 80's!
