I just couldn\u2019t believe that it\u2019s over.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cThat is really upsetting. Because I don\u2019t want it to stop,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Manilow, whose career has spanned five decades, said he still does not even know if his voice will be ready for his tour, which is due to begin later this month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI looked at my band and they were all looking at the floor. So, that was the first hint that something was not right,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve always taken my voice for granted. Don\u2019t take it seriously. Now I do because it doesn\u2019t seem to be there the way it always was.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The showman, who also turns 83 later this month, revealed in December 2025 that he had been diagnosed with lung cancer and would require surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=525\">Trump Sets New Posting Record as Mania Spirals Out of Control<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Grammy Award-winning artist said at the time it was \u201cpure luck\u201d that doctors found the cancer so early and that his treatment would not involve chemotherapy or radiation.<\/p>\n<p>However, Manilow was admitted to the ICU for seven days after suffering from pneumonia during his treatment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was terrifying. There were a couple of moments there that I thought, you know, this may be goodbye,\u201d Manilow told <i>Good Morning America.<\/i> \u201cBut these people at this hospital, they were just angels, saints. I could cry so hard every time I think about these nurses and doctors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Manilow has since confirmed he is cancer-free and that he \u201ccan\u2019t wait\u201d to get back onstage if he is able to sing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m in great shape. I\u2019m ready to go. I just hope my voice is.
