Even if the expression doesn’t exist, it’s still about Barry Manilow.
Seems to me that you’re so young as to never have heard of him.
urbandictionary.com has a definition for ‘manilow’:
“Someone who is boring, or a let down.”
Derived from the word Barry(Barry Manilow).
“Don’t be a Barry” or “Don’t be a Manilow”.
Ben: “I can’t be bothered to go out tonight”.
Matt: “Ah, don’t be a manilow”.
This site states that is doesn’t have a definition for “manilowesque’ – “yet”.
