Synopsis

Spoiler shield

The internationally renowned superstar Barry Manilow takes requests for Christmas songs and performs live with a band, an orchestra, and special guests including Cyndi Lauper. And in a rare holiday treat, old friends Barry and Bette Midler join together, via media magic, in a duet that each taped separately. Mr. Manilow also hosts this 2-hour festive songfest.
