MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A singer whose five-decade career has been marked by numerous accolades and millions of albums sold has announced his farewell performance in Milwaukee.

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.

Barry Manilow will perform at Fiserv Forum on Saturday, Aug. 3 in a performance that he is billing as "The Last Milwaukee Concert."
