Actually, Barry Manilow never sang on the original jingle. He did write the music for it, though. Also, he did sing it as part of his V.S.M. (Very Strange Medley) in concert for a number of years. 1976 is the year that State Farm started running the ads. BTW, that VSM is on Barry Manilow Live, the one that was released in May, 1977.
Yes. Barry Manilow sang the U.S. national anthem at Super Bowl XVIII, for the game between the Washington Redskinsand Los Angeles Raiders on January 22, 1984.
