That question jumps out at us daily from magazine covers, TV news and online gossip sites.  In my world of entertainment, I've watched perfectly decent and talented people achieve the success they've been striving for only to crash and burn as their star rises.  It happens in every walk of life, not only in the entertainment field; in sports, in politics and in daily life when the assistant manager gets promoted at the grocery store.  It's something that continues to fascinate us, and for me it represented an exciting musical journey to explore, " explained Manilow.Making a guest appearance on 15 MINUTES  is young Nataly Dawn, lead singer of the white-hot group "Pomplamoose."  Her rendition of "Letter From A Fan" is both innocent and eerie.15 MINUTES, produced by Manilow and Michael Lloyd is a captivating tale of someone who achieves fame, blows it and begins again.
