Have you ever watched mcavoy in becoming Jane? He will melt you with his vulnerability, charm and more than excellent acting skills. Trust me, it’s worth a look.

Luke Evans, another Brit, has an even better voice
This is literally so wholesome. Notice how Manilow changes his style to match Jame's style. That is how you know he knows what he is doing.

seeing him be the one to ask if he wanted to sing it with him was so nice!
I didn’t think I could find James McAvoy any more attractive, but my attraction has just gone up by 5000%
This was so so special, bless Barry Manilow’s heart, it was so kind of him to play piano for James (who was clearly thrilled) And James killed it 😂

And who wouldn’t want to get a hug from Barry Manilow?! Hello! Copa is still one of my favorite songs!
Wow, was not expecting that singing voice to come out of James McAvoy. Kudos.
I can't believe it's been over 40 years since that song was released. Barry was an anomaly back then because disco was at its peak and he came out with beautifully arranged love songs with Broadway appeal.Those songs meant everything to me then and I still love them..

That is the best description of his songs I have heard. They mean so much to me too. So fantastic to see this moment!
Awww their sweet hug at the end!!! I love how James seemed so starstruck he couldn't really look Barry in the eye-- and then they both killed it during the performance!! This was just perfect!!
Barry Manilow is a goddamn national treasure! They don't make performers like him anymore.
The feeling you get when your idol is playing the piano and you're doing karaoke to his song
Didn’t realize James could sing. Love him even more.
Gotta love James McAvoy 😁 this was great. Great voice.
Barry Manilow deserves these moments, he's infectiously fun and enjoys his talents.
i could listen to James McAvoy's singing all day long
Whoa mamma, that just made James McAvoy even sexier than he already is.... lit the room on fire!!!
I've always loved Copacabana, and I loved hearing James MacAvoy sing it, especially with Barry Manilow playing the piano.
Could it GET more wholesome? No. No, it could not. So sweet. ❤
Barry Manilow is such a lovely person, he just makes everyone around him light up
This needs to go viral! What an amazing duet, amazing vocals from McAvoy
Barry Manilow studied piano at the prestigious Julliard Music School in NY. He spoke about being there in a most modest way when he performed recently at the Palladium. It was an amazing concert and his voice has just not aged at all. Immensely talented and all round nice guy too. Very generous in praise for his backing singers and musicians as well.
One of the greatest musical talents with no Hollywood drama
I love Barry Manilow. ❤ I love his music, and his beautiful voice.❤ I love how he’s such a lovely humble guy.❤ I love that he’s been in a relationship for about 50yrs. I used to worry that he had been lonely. ❤ And I love that so many people still love him, and his music.❤
My Mom was a huge fan of Barry Manilow, and I knew all of his songs too. I would've been starstruck as well. This was so sweet and uplifting. Big fan of both James & Barry.
What a surprise! And James did remarkably, esp considering he was nervous.
Omg! You're a revelation James! 🤩😍 I didn't know you have a gift in singing. A true talented actor! 💯😊❤️
Fantastic. Love Barry Manilow and also always impressed by James McAvoy's amazing talent.
James and Barry, well done! Lovely ❤️❤️🎂
James didn't do half bad, especially for being nervous. Well done to both of them.
How beautiful an artist should be to do it this good. James did it with utter respect to the artist just in the right level. He sang perfectly in tune but never intending to challenge Mr Manilow. He indeed was singing well but with respect and admiration at the same time. Love to all of them. One of the greatest videos I’ve ever seen on this show. Thank you Jonathan and to the other artists participating.
i LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!!!!!!! Barry you're so awesome!!!! James you're so awesome!!!!!

Imagine singing Copacabana with Barry MANILOW accompanying YOU on piano!? Like, WHAT??!! Who gets to do that!? James McAvoy, that's who.
Some of my fav from Manilow's songs are Even Now, Mandy, Ready To Take The Chance Again and so so many more... Growing up listening to his songs some how taught me how to be poetic...
Is there nothing James cannot do?!

I saw a film called The Pool a while back, a teen slasher movie, the best thing about it was a young Scottish lad, the one and only James, he was also in the movie Wimbledon, again where he was quite young.
That was awesome!!!🍹
