A Most Thoughtful Balladeer, Endeared: Mr Tony Bennet Tribute

"YES! THERE ARE MANY SINGERS WITH GREAT VOICES... JUST THEIR MERE SOUND, ALONE, TELLS US THAT THEY CAN HOLD A NOTE AND CONFIDENTLY "CARRY A TUNE!" BUT... WHAT ABOUT A SINGER, WHOM WHEN THEY ENTER A ROOM, OPEN HIS* MOUTH TO TELL A STORY... IN A WAY THAT STAYS AND LINGERS LONG IN YOUR SOUL.. "LIKE A SIMMERING!" LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I AM REFERRING TO THE GREAT* MR. TONY BENNET! "HE WAS A TENDER *HEART-SURRENDERED* SIGNATURED SINGER!" TODAY, JULY 21, 2023. HE MADE HIS TRANSITION. HIS IMPACT, FOREVER IN-TACT...HEARTFELT FACTS!!! "MAY HE FLOURISH IN ELEVATION ON HIS NEXT MISSION!~" I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE AN EXPERIENCE, I HAD...LISTENING AND VIEWING MR. TB, A FEW YEARS BACK... IT HAPPENED TO BE A PARTICULAR YOUTUBE PERFORMANCE AND THE SONG WAS "THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT!" WELL, DURING HIS PERFORMANCE, THERE CAME A PART WHERE INSTEAD OF WORDS.... HE SUNG A SPECIFIC "LA LA DAH- DAH...DAH DAH" AND WHAT STOOD OUT TO ME THE MOST WAS HOW RIVETING AND SINGULARLY THOSE SPECIFIC SOUNDS OF UTTER CONTENTION AND CONTENTMENT HE SUNG WITH SUCH A SIGNATURED REVERENCE, THAT HAD ME SO FLOORED!!! I RECALL RE-PLAYING THAT PART IN PARTICULAR, OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN! HE WAS PART OF MY ALBUM COLLECTION AND AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED... THERE REMAINS "NO REPLICATION!" ABSOLUTE NONE. THIS MAN KEPT A GLINT IN HIS EYES, I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL WHEN YOU WOULD SEE THAT IN A HUMAN BEING, WHO DID WHAT THEY LOVED DOING... REACHING ANOTHER HUMAN BEING THROUGH THEIR EXPRESSION AND {OWN* INNER LENS AND CORE SEEING!} ALSO, THIS MAN WAS AN AMAZING ACCOMPLISHED PAINTER! {SMILE} EVER SEEN HIS PORTRAIT OF LOUIS ARMSTRONG, FOR INSTANCE, A.K A. "SATCHMO" YOU CAN TELL EACH PAINT STROKE, *EVOKED* SO MUCH ADMIRATION, GENUINE ELATION...WHAT AMAZING REGARD!!! "FAVALOSO! :-)" "WHAT PROFOUND COMMUNICATION!!!" WHAT MORE CAN ONE ASK FOR TO GIFT* ANOTHER, MANY OTHERS...THAT SOUL TOUCHED SENSATION!!!! NOW HIS GIFT WILL LIVE ON, STRONG AND TIMELESS! HIS SMILE WAS SOOOOO RICH AND WARM! YOU COULD FEEL HIS AUTHENTICITY, {SUCH ELECTRICITY} THAT'S INDEED A SPECIAL SYNCHRONICITY... "THAT'S WHAT HE GAVE!" IT'S WHAT I FELT* LEAVING ME SMILING SO* (A GENUINE HEART- MELT!!!) AND I WILL *ALWAYS* REMEMBER HIM, "FOR THAT!" REST IN PEACE...MR. TB* THROUGH SONG... "HOW YOU GAVE TO THEE!" YOU'LL *NEVER* BE FORGOTTEN! "RISE IN POWER..." MAY YOUR NEXT JOURNEY BE *JOYOUS* IN ALL YOU ARE IDENTIFIED TO DO... MAY *IT* ELEVATE AND GENERATE UTTER HAPPINESS TOO! YES! MAY YOU BE UTTERLY SATISFIED {GRATIFIED} LIKE THE GIFT* YOU GAVE US... *UNDENYED* {MR. TONY BENNETT} "AMPLIFIED! ! !" "YOU WERE BEYOND A DELIGHT... A *GO-TO* SOUL-SOOTHE HIGHLIGHT. . . SINCERELY, NOT MERELY, I THANK YOU!!!" Renee D. Gross {GHPPR} July 21, 2023#
