  1. Along with Mel Torme, Sinatra, Andy Williams, etc. And even Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison… He represents the large number of talented celebrities who've passed during my life, which began in 1950.

  2. Never heard of him or his songs

  3. Rest in Peace Tony Bennett 😔

  4. When these champions dies it's like our musical fundament is disappearing. Their class, style and charm can not be replaced. Been through a war must have given this generation a whole other level of joy being on stage. Not so sure today's artists have that. It's rather superficial.

  5. Why did they hashtag lady gaga for this video..?

  6. Sad day for humanity. Tony is unforgetable!

  7. RIP Tony.
    NBC presenter: 'Pop'. Jeez, girl. Jazz.

  8. RIP Mr. Tony Bennett!!
    😢

  9. Rip brother you'll be up there jamming with pac

  10. Awe man that’s sad. Yeah he’s 96 but you still don’t want them to go. Farewell to a legend. 🙏💔😢🎙️

  11. Crisco (pointing at the picture of The Mask): There! That is the savage! He ruined my performance with his pluckage. Ruined it, ruined it!

    Detective Doyle: Aw, gee, well, that's too bad. It Looks like you put on a real nice show.

    Lt. Mitch Kellaway: Listen, pal. There's no way what you do could be called a performance. Mr. Tony Bennett…now that's a performer!

  12. I loved his voice and his gentlemanly ways.!

  13. Yk, this was a wonderful peace….

    Until your video footer ruined it. 😑

  14. So many amazing achievements and yet they had to mention drug addiction and a ten year hiatus because of it. I never even knew that and I was ok with not knowing. Maybe stick with the highlights the next time a legend dies.

  15. Prayers for his family, he will be missed.

  16. Have watched just about all his duet videos with the greats as well, so versatile was he that he could sing with just about anyone! A true icon, a true loss. OUR HEARTS❤ HAVE BEEN LEFT IN NY WITH YOU MR BENNETT. ❤REST IN PEACE

  17. The last of the big cats . Thank you

  18. I doubt Tony loved the state of San Francisco in his last few years.

  19. Thank you, Tony. Rest In Song.

    With ❤,
    Every Greatful San Franciscan

  20. You should not advertise your own content at the end of a death notice .. it’s plainly exploitation

  21. Thank you for your beautiful life❤

  22. Rest in Peace Tony Bennett (1926-2023)😢💔🕊️🙏🏾🤍

  23. Rest in paradise, Mr. Bennett. Thank you for the wonderful songs and times you gave us. "San Francisco"is my favorite.😢

  24. Another "Great One." Is gone
    R.I.P 🕊️

  25. This man was pure class. And his voice is like Velvet. May he rest in peace!

  26. I have no idea who this man is
