Barry Manilow . . . who knew back in the 70s when he was singing “Mandy” he was really thinking of Andy.

Anyone who knew Barry got his start playing in the bath houses with Bette Midler.

Mandy is short for “My Andy.”

Actually the song was written by Scott English and Richard Kerr and it was titled "Brandy."

When Manilow recorded it, there had just been a big hit by Looking Glass called "Brandy (She's A Fine Girl)", so hence the change to Mandy.

Homer: Oh Mindy, you came and you gave without flaking, But I sent you Ben Gay. Oh Andy, you kissed me and stopped me from something, And I..

Lisa: Judging from your song, you're infatuated with a woman named Mindy... or a man named Andy.
