A council in the Australian city of Sydney is taking radical measures against car-revving youths - the calming tones of singer Barry Manilow.
Officials in Rockdale say that local youths have been hanging around in car parks, revving their engines and generally annoying residents.
So the council has decided to strike back.
From July, Barry Manilow's greatest hits will be piped into one car park in a bid to drive the youths away.

I've been alive forever
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together
I am music
And I write the songs
[Chorus:]
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs...
MAKE HIM STOP! MAKE HIM STOP!

Crowd of hooligans singing in unison: "Oh Mandy well you came and you gave without taking but I sent you away..."
Police: I don't think this is working. I've noticed three new gay pubs down the street.

LOL I remember when he first became popular I thought "can this guy even do one song that DOESN'T include a key change on the last chorus?"

Fighting it only makes it hurt. Barry wants you to love him as much as he loves you.

Just the threat of Barry Manilow works on me. Barry Manilow scares me.
He's like a big ol' 70s Disco Era Monster.
And what was the deal where all of his songs had to have that big, dramatic crescendo thing in it?
