    Finally a man singing in a baritonal key. All the richer for it.

    Flawless rendition. He really understands the lyrics, and his phrasing delivers them in a sensible, coherent manner.

    This song is full of emotion and melancholy. I can't stand people who sing this song smiling. Alongside Lady Gaga's version which is also amazing, this version is my favorite. Very well done!

    This is good. I like your diction, so important in such a complicated song (musically and as far as the lyrics are concerned) Great!

    I'm floored .. I have been listening to all the various versions of this song today because I love it so much - Natalie Cole, Linda Ronstadt, Queen Latifah... but your beautiful perceptive interpretation was like I was really hearing it for the first time. Thank you so much for sharing your gift.

      You have superb taste. And this kid….. everyone younger than me is a kid now.. I’m not being disrespectful. I’m just so happy that this beautiful music lives on! When he sings the line “I’ll forget you, I will” my heart breaks … in a beautiful way.

    This is a crooner's dream song and Tony's take on it is a favorite of mine (along with Lady Gaga's) over the more established jazz icons. But, as a fellow crooner, it is Tedd Firth's exquisite and flawless accompaniment that gives this version a 10. Beautiful job gents!

  • @reh331

    Stunning. I came here from a Coltrane search and am amazed I did not know of this guy. Fantastic and moving arrangement, interpretation, and confident approach to the melody. Nat King Cole-type confidence. Truly, a beautiful voice. Thank you so much, Tony!!

    What a combo. Tony's interpretation of this wonderful classic tune takes your breath away. And as I've commented elsewhere, I'm such a Tedd Firth fan. Those of us who are wanna be musicians who get to hear him perform in venues around NYC are so lucky (I heard him the other night at Carnegie Hall w Michael Feinstein). I can't even figure in my head some of the changes he is playing here, and Tony is so good in that he can lead and expound on the melody over his voicings. Bravo.

      They make such an amazing team. I'm so jealous that you get to see them live. I'm going to try to get him to come to Toronto. He's been to Vancouver and Calgary - time he came east. Toronto and Montreal both have good jazz audiences and summer jazz festivals!

    Can anyone spell S.U.B.L.I.M.E.? The thing that strikes me about this singer he is not just singing. He is living the song, which is very hard to fake. This guy is a true blue man and a bona fide singer. Rather, a bona fide artist.

    Count this song a privileged to perform. Unless you can put your best out there don’t bother. This thing ran on too long you need to compress it. Less theatrics and more music focusing. Your meter tic between words is too slow I’ve noticed that on many of your selection. You cannot convince us by hanging on words that will not fly. This song start to finish could compress to 3 minutes with same results. You’ve got this nice voice don’t get careless with your delivery. Reading press clippings even makes things work. Big fan of you here, don’t fail me.
