Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga

When Tony Bennett sang With Lady Gaga, a duet, The entertainment level Was as cool as it could get. The difference in their ages mattered Not one little bit Since their voices, both exquisite, Did magnificently knit. But best of all, their friendship And their mutual respect Had, on everyone who watched them, A most powerful effect. News of Tony Bennett’s passing Means that golden sound is gone, But at least his voice and videos With Gaga will live on.

So well said. He was a legend and kids these days really don't know what real music is, do they? MY mother loved Lena Horne, Peggy Lee, Rhapsody In Blue. She would have loved Tony and Lady. What a wonderful pair they made, bringing each others beauty out. She was so fortunate to sing w/ one of the greats. I'm so delighted to have found this poem. It is just lovely as were they.

Never was a Lady Gaga fan but did like Tony Bennet. The music world lost a lot with his passing. Well done my friend. God Bless, JB
