Music News: Barry Manilow’s Agonizing Cancer Treatment

Barry Manilow has shared an update on his ‘agony’ amid treatment for lung cancer.

The legendary singer shared a video message for fans on his social media channels, three months after pausing his farewell tour due to a cancer diagnosis.

Describing the mandated break from work as “agony”, Barry, 82, admitted he had “no patience” as he waited to complete treatment.

“It’s been a long ride and since I have no patience, it’s been agony,” he said. “But I am getting stronger. And I have great doctors and wonderful friends and family, but I am so looking forward to getting back on stage.”

The Copacabana singer announced in December that doctors had found a cancerous spot on his lung when they checked him over after a bout of bronchitis.

Explaining that although he had been working out three times a day, he was still unable to “sing more than three songs in a row”, Barry told his followers his concert tour would need to be postponed and recalled his doctor telling him, “Barry, you won’t be ready to do a 90-minute show. Your lungs aren’t ready yet. You’re in great shape considering what you’ve been through, but your body isn’t ready.”

On Tuesday, the Mandy singer managed to sneak in a plug for his new album, What a Time.

“What a time it’s been,” he reflected. “Hey, that’s the name of my new album! It’s called What a Time. It comes out real soon and I can’t wait to show these songs to you.”
