He based the music on Frédéric Chopin's Prelude in C minor, Opus 28, Number 20, crediting Chopin on the album. This isn't unheard of in the music world, not even unheard of before popular times. And nowhere in the otherwise very strict rules of the Megapolls is it written that Barry Manilow had to have written each of his hits.
I get that you hate Barry Manilow, that's understandable and maybe a little desirable. But don't fucking lie about it, dude.
According to Wiki, these are some of the songs for which Manilow wrote the music:
Bermuda Triangle
Copacabana
Could It Be Magic
Daybreak
Even Now
I Dig New York
I Made It Through the Rain
I Won't Be the One to Let Go
I'm Your Man
It's a Miracle
It's Just Another New Year's Eve
New York City Rhythm
Only in Chicago
Perfect Isn't Easy
Some Kind of Friend
Stay
Street Singin'
Superheroes
This One's for You
When October Goes
