  • a classic from my teenage years. It still sounds fresh and beautiful and Tony is one of a kind!

  • I wandered through London's Covent Garden recently and competent singers abound sang notes and reached for the scales but none sang with a feeling and expression that makes this one a great. Floated moments in just the right places and a wonderful performance,. Thanks dude for posting this. :))

  • Amazing

  • one of the greatest artistes of all time. a wonderful rendition of a beautiful song.

  • i love this <3

  • For more than 30 years Frank Sinatra was my number one singer in the world. I guess because to me his music was more accessible. Now, for the last 3 years i got Tony Bennett's music more freely. Tony has become my number one now, equal with Frank Sinatra. Because i have Tony's songs i don't abandon Frank like many others are doing. It is because i have felt their music in my heart in different era's, that's why i do not make an exchange but compare and find both soothing to my soul.

  • @georgiansolitaire - It's wonderful videos such as yours which remind us that, in spite of all the man-made and natural tragedies around us, there is still beauty in the world and much to be grateful for. Thank you for posting this superb effort of Mr. Bennett and making my day. Greetings from London, Canada.

  • 電腦翻譯 Stranger In Paradise 天堂的陌生人 Take my hand 牵着我的手 I'm a stranger in paradise 我是一个天堂中的陌生人 All lost in a wonderland 在仙境中迷失一切 A stranger in paradise 一个天堂中的陌生人 If I stand starry-eyed 如果我站着空想 That's the danger in paradise 那会是天堂中的危难 For mortals who stand beside an angel like you 對於站在天使旁的那个凡人 I saw your face and I ascended 我看着你的脸,慢慢地上升 Out of the commonplace into the rare 离开凡人的领域,进入到人迹稀罕的地方 ……
  • Stranger In Paradise 天堂的陌生人

    Take my hand 牵着我的手

    I'm a stranger in paradise 我是一个天堂中的陌生人

    All lost in a wonderland 在仙境中迷失一切

    A stranger in paradise 一个天堂中的陌生人

    If I stand starry-eyed 如果我站着空想

    That's the danger in paradise 那会是天堂中的危难

    For mortals who stand beside an angel like you 對於站在天使旁的那个凡人 I saw your face and I ascended 我看着你的脸,慢慢地上升

    Out of the commonplace into the rare 离开凡人的领域,进入到人迹稀罕的地方

    There are two kinds of music, this and the stuff they write nowadays which should be called crap. Obviously you have a sense of taste for the beautiful music, there`s lots of it about.

  • @georgiansolitaire

    I couldnt agree more :)

    In my honoust opinion this is Tony Bennett's best song and he is unquestionaly one of the best singers ever.

    Thanks for the upload.

  • Words cannot describe this amazing song and the legend Tony Bennett.

  • The great Russian composer Borodin, and the songwriters Wright/Forrest meet the wonder that is Tony Bennett, possibly the best-loved singer in the world...the result is thrillingly romantic.

  • Thanks for knowing this piece of music history. I am proven that others love music as much as I do. Beautiful.

  • My father was strucked as if by lightning (the first time he listened to the also beautiful lyrics in Spanish) and got fascinated by them, whenever my mum used to sing to him, "Extraños en el Paraíso", with the most beautiful "soprano lirica" pitch of voice she had!!! Most beautiful version by Tony, indeed!! Thank you dear Phil!
