Hi Barry

Thank You so much for the fantastic shows you gave us, for all the memories and special times we have spent with you. For the Family of Friends we have made because of you, friends old and new made because of the shows, your music and this wonderful site.

You made a lot of people very happy coming back to the UK and we needed you so much, you came to see us at just the right time with the state of world economy. You made us all feel better. We've all missed you so very much, I hope you could feel our love coming to you, like we could feel all of yours pouring across those footlights.

Please take good care of yourself and come back to see us again as soon as you can. You know we'll be right here waiting for you, ready to continue the love affair that we have with each other.

Love you lots,

Hi Barry
What can I say they were the most powerful amazing shows I have ever seen, I thought seeing you in Vegas was magical but these shows were beyond words.
They just got better and better every night.
Thankyou from the bottom of my heart for an experience I will never ever forget.
Love you Barry,
Jackie X

Your shows were absolutely fantastic and I am so glad you came back to see all of your friends in the UK.
Please come back and see us again so that we can all share that magical moment again when we are all together in one BIG ROOM just listening to your music.

Lots of love

Dear Barry,
I just wanted to thank you for the most wonderful concerts you gave us this weekend. Having followed you for thirty years,this new show..."The Hits"...stirs up so many memories and I've found that we've had quite a few 'do you remember...' conversations! I loved every bit of every show but the moment I shall really remember (apart from "Forever and a day" on Monday in Manchester ) was Saturday night when you sang " Somewhere down the road" and got to the unaccompanied part. You had 16,000 people totally silent. To be in the middle of it was amazing.
Please come to see us again,
Keep well,
With love & sincere thanks,
Jill Lawes.

All my love

Hi Barry,
I dont know how to thank you for the past 4 concerts. I have been a fan since 1979, when I took my 8 year old daughter to see you. She has been a fan ever since and on Saturday a dream came true for me as I took HER daughter as well - who is 8 now and there was 3 generations of Barry fans there,
Over the years you and your music have helped us through so much and we will be forever grateful. Please come back soon Barry. You know how much we all love and respect you. We know if we wish hard enough and wait our dreams can come true.
Have a wonderful Xmas and we hope you have all you wish and more for 2009.
Take care
Rose

Hi Barry

A BIG THANK YOU for 4 nights, you are WORLD CLASS Barry. Athough I have been a fan for many years, it was my first time seeing you LIVE and you blew my breath away, your charm, your beauty, your charisma, I could go on and on. There is no one like you and never will be, you are the entertainer of the century. Please do come back to the UK very soon. You are one AMAZING guy.

I love you with all my heart forever & ever.

The shows were amazing.I cant think of any words to describe the brilliance of Barry.I have followed him for 30 years and been lucky enough to attend many shows,never been disappointed,however this weekend Barry took us all to new heights with his performances.

My husband and I love Barry and would like to pass on our thanks to him for just bringing this show to us.We went through many emotions which only Barry can bring to us.

Thankyou Barry,please come back soon we are missing you already.I hope you have now seen that you will always be loved by us in the UK no matter how long you are away from us.

HUrry back!!!!!

Dear Barry

You will never know in a million years what it meant to me to see you here with us again, I came to all three shows in London and I was totally blown away, I've not been able to get to Vegas, so it was wonderful to hear all your gorgeous songs again with the beautiful music that we all know and love so much.

There is just so much more I would love to say to you, but I'd have to write a book, but I just want you to know that you changed my life a few years ago (long story), and I will never be able to thank you enough for that.

I have made the most wonderful friends in the world thanks to you and your music and it was great meeting with them through this exceptional week.

Barry, please don't leave it so long next time, I don't think I can wait another four years to hear your beautiful voice live again, I really have no idea how you do it, Even Now was awesome with that long sustained note at the end, that in itself has been a topic of convervastion on it's own.

All of the guys in your band, plus Melanie, Monica, Keeley and Kye were all wonderful, and it was great seeing them all having a good time and enjoying themselves too.

Please look after yourself Barry, we love you so much and hope to see you here again very soon.

Love Ros.

Hi Barry,

Thank you so much for the 3 fantastic concerts at the O2 Arena. We made it a friends and family event with our daughter, sister, sister-in-law, friend and all the hubbies coming along too. They all had the time of their lives.

Your fantastic singing and beautiful music flowed over us and left us feeling on a natural high. You just get better and better and so good to see you looking so good!!!

I wish you good health and happiness for many, many years, and hope that you continue singing and performing for your devoted fans.

Please come back to the UK soon - I'm sure you know by now it is your second home.

Very Best Wishes

Deborah
