We All Have Our Mandy's - Westlife and Barry Manilow

I was still a kid when this song became very popular in the late 70s. Of course, then, at the tender age of 4, I didn't yet realize what the song meant. Fast forward 24 years later, the song finally touched me since I met my own Mandy, whom I also sent away.

I was not surprised that Westlife remade this as ballads have often been their forte and bread and butter, so why not go with a classic like this. The song went to #1 in the UK, also, not a surprise. They made some slight changes in the latter part of the song, which was ok.

Below is the original version of Barry Manilow, which is hauntingly beautiful and sad!
