Barry Manilow will play San Antonio this summer on what's billed as final tour

During his '70s and '80s heyday, Barry Manilow divided listeners into those who loved his tuneful sentimentality and those who wrote it off as schmaltz or insert a less-polite word here. In the end, Manilow had the last laugh. The singer-songwriter moved 85 million albums worldwide and racked up nearly 30 Top 10 hits, including "I Write the Songs," "Looks Like We Made It" and "Copacabana," all of which — for better or worse — retain their earworm qualities to this day. Oh yeah, the guy also bagged a Grammy, Emmy and a Tony, and he was also nominated for an Oscar.
