 15 MINUTES - BARRY MANILOW: When you're talking about pop music, you've got to talk about Barry Manilow, at least I do. Yes, Virginia, I know there are some people out there who still don't dig Barry. I really don't like those people. On the other hand, I love the fact that Barry Manilow has decided at this point in his life and career to write with Enoch Anderson and record a rather ballsy concept album about fame in the 21st century. Let others keep cutting cover albums celebrating pop music's past; I say Barry should keep writing new songs like these. P.S. The independently released 15 Minutes just debuted at #7 on the Billboard album chart - proof positive that pop music can actually be popular. - David Wild, TV Writer, Rolling Stone Contributing Editor and author 'He Is... I Say'
