Barry Manilow CD Review and Giveaway...

BARRY MANILOW TO RELEASE ALL ORIGINAL
NEW ALBUM ENTITLED 15 MINUTES

Guitar-Driven Pop Album Explores Fame’s Double-Edged Sword

15 MINUTES, the first original album from singer-songwriter Barry Manilow in 10 years was released on June 14th.

Manilow released 15 MINUTES through the independent label STILETTO Entertainment and in partnership with FONTANA, the award-winning independent marketing and sales company of UNIVERSAL Music Group.

More than two years in the making, Manilow teams up once again with lyricist Enoch Anderson for this latest work.

After having recorded six critically acclaimed albums of songs written by the greatest songwriters of all time – from Gershwin to Bacharach,  as well as two Platinum Christmas albums, Manilow returns at last to his true passion –songwriting.

Inspired by the Andy Warhol quote that “In the future, everybody will be world famous for fifteen minutes,” this exciting guitar-driven pop album explores the perils and pinnacles of fame’s double-edged sword.

“There are very few things that you can count on in life, and one of them is Barry Manilow delivering an incredibly soulful, dynamic and reflective album like 15 MINUTES,”stated Ron Spaulding, President of Fontana. “Songs in this collection are quintessential Barry, soaring vocals and true craftsmanship. We’re delighted to be playing a part in the next chapter of his already storied career.”
                              
15 MINUTES, produced by Manilow and Michael Lloyd is a captivating tale of someone who achieves fame, blows it and begins again. 15 MINUTES is being released by STILETTO Entertainment and distributed by Fontana in association with the Universal Music Group as part of a multi-product partnership.

Track List:
                   
             1.                   15 Minutes
2.                   Work The Room
3.                   Bring On Tomorrow
4.                   Now It’s For Real
5.                   Wine Song
6.                   He’s A Star
7.                   Written In Stone
8.                   Letter From A Fan / So Heavy, So High
9.                   Everybody’s Leavin’
10.               Who Needs You?
11.               Winner Go Down
12.               Slept Through The End Of The World
13.               Reflection
14.               Trainwreck
15.               15 Minutes (Reprise)
             16.               Everything’s Gonna Be All Right
