Tony Bennett, master, cool, story teller, versatile, owns it. This particular song has never been sung better than Judy Garland did in A Star Is Born. Each and every time I hear her version I get chills. She was incredible.

Tony did this great song completely in Italian ofa KAY STARR TV show in the early 50's. The man is an icon.

The song is supposed to be gloomy but how come you're not?

With all due respect to Mr Bennett....But he really butchered this beautiful song. Make no mistake, I am a fan of this classic singer, but This was truly painful to hear..

This version sucks. He tried to jazz up a torch song. No, sorry, it doesn't work. not this time, TB....

@flashtheoriginal You´re right, "God Bless The Child" is a also VERY good song (just like the rest of this album) and a great tribute to Billie Holiday..: Poor, that Ralph now isn´t on the piano anymore.
You called Tony the last of the greats - don´t you think, Andy Williams is also one of them?
It really gets no better than this. I saw this broadcast live on BBC 2's "The Late Show" and subsequently lost it in a wiped video. Ralph Sharon - what a pianist, and such a great trio. Tony Bennett is probably the last of the greats and this is a fitting tribute to his performance skills. A REAL singer. If you like this, check out "God bless the child" on the 1996 album "Here's to the ladies".
Great post. Thank you
