dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Another great singer/songwriter and actor has died. The amazing 96 years old Tony Bennett has passed. He was ill for a while but didn't want it out. My mom and grandparents loved this man. He was born in Queens NY, fellow Italian American. Got his break when Pearl Baily asked him to sing with her. The rest is history. He's sung with some many of today's great singers like Lady Gaga. He had a long amazing career. RIP Tony. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lame ass security Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 What an icon, one of the best voices ever. His collaborations with Lady Gaga and Amy Winehouse were amazing but the duet with Billie Holiday on God Bless The Child is otherworldly. I remember seeing a vid of him joining Billy Joel onstage for New York State Of Mind which was epic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 What a legacy to leave behind. One of the greatest voices from a generation of incredible singers. Rest easy, Tony. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted July 22, 2023 Author Share Posted July 22, 2023 Yeah, Tony was one of a kind. bless him. And he sang with Bono too. My mom remembers seeing him on the Ed Sullivan show. Back in the 60's all American families would sit and watch Ed's show every Sunday night. he had the best talent around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
