"Could It Be Magic" is a song by Adrienne Anderson and Barry Manilow. It was included on Manilow's 1973 debut album, Barry Manilow I.
Due to its success, it was released as a single in 1975 where it reached #6 in the United States.
Donna Summer also sang the same song on her album Love Trilogy in 1976, and took it to #3 on the US Dance chart.
The song is based on Frédéric Chopin's Prelude in C Minor, Opus 28, Number 20, and Manilow's singing in the last verse fades into a straight performance of the last few bars of the Prelude.
Cover versions
- In the UK, the song is primarily associated with boy band Take That, who had a #3 UK hit in 1992 with their version from their debut album Take That and Party. This version is used as a backing for Disney Cinemagic during the previews on the range of Disney channels though the night.
- British Eurodance/Hi-NRG artist Abigail recorded a dance version on her debut album Feel Good from 1994.
- A house remix of the song appears as the penultamate track on Hed Kandi: Disco Heaven 01.05, credited to "Andrea T. Mendoza & Tibet feat. Ife Corcoran".[1]
