"Sandra" is a song written by Barry Manilow and Enoch Anderson. A piano-based ballad, the song takes the voice of a lonely housewife looking back at missed opportunities, because she married at an early age.[1] It was originally recorded by Manilow on his album, Barry Manilow II in 1974. Dusty Springfield covered the song on her 1978 album It Begins Again. In a contemporary interview with Music Week, Springfield praised the song's "own inbuilt drama" and considered it to be more personal when sung by a woman.[2] Entertainer Bruce Forsyth recorded a version for his 1975 album The Bruce Forsyth Album. This version was Forsyth's first American single release, on Warner Bros.[3]
