Barry Manilow has canceled and postponed several live performances, including Las Vegas residency shows and a concert in Lexington, citing bronchitis, vocal strain, and unforeseen circumstances. He was also among the notable figures honoring Clive Davis at his funeral, alongside Bruce Springsteen, Alicia Keys, and Dionne Warwick, while also being remembered by peers for his influence on music. Recent retrospectives highlight his early work and lasting impact, including his role in shaping a crossover hit later popularized by Kenny Rogers.
