TIL The song "Mandy" by Barry Manilow was originally "Brandy" and sung by Scott English
The story that Mandy is about Barry Manilow's dog comes from Scott English. He was annoyed by someone asking at a late hour on the phone and just said it was about a dog. It's just a made up song about no one in particular. More on reddit.com

1 week ago - "Brandy", later called "Mandy", is a song written by Scott English and Richard Kerr. It was originally recorded by English in 1971 and reached the top 20 of the UK Singles Chart. "Brandy" was recorded by New Zealand singer Bunny Walters in 1972, but achieved greater success when released in the United States in 1974 by Barry Manilow.

Barry Manilow's 'Mandy' 50th Anniversary Fun Facts
January 18, 2025 - But that year, super-producer Clive Davis took over the record label that released Manilow’s music, forming Arista Records — and approached Manilow with a pitch: Release a cover of Scott English’s “Brandy.” Manilow recorded it for his second solo album, Barry Manilow II, which was released in October 1974. One big difference between Manilow’s song and the original version? A decision was made to adjust the title and lyrics to “Mandy,” rather than “Brandy” — The Looking Glass had had a major hit in 1972 with “Brandy (You’re a Fine Girl),” so the tweak was made to avoid listener confusion.

r/Music on Reddit: The song "Mandy" by Barry Manilow was originally "Brandy"
September 7, 2025 -

After the post regarding people's associations with the name "Brandy," I feel inspired to share this story and video about the original name for the Barry Manilow song "Mandy" (which I did in the comments when someone remarked about mixing up the name for the Manilow song with Brandy). I had the opportunity to meet Ron Dante, the lead vocals for The Archies, at the Grammy museum for an Abby Road Tribute concert with other great musicians like Debbie Peterson from The Bangles. When I introduced myself, he told me this story. The song was originally "Brandy," but when the Looking Glass song, "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" came out, they had to change it.

Here is the video clip I took

Here's "Mandy" by Barry Manilow for those not familiar
