      I love his work with Ralph Sharon and Bill Charlap -- even at his advanced age here. And of course the iconic lps he did with Bill Evans. Wonderful.

    The definitive version he had already recorded of this song. But it is Tony, and each great song will always stand in a new, live in studio recorded, worthy interpretation.
    Just voice and piano, like in his highlight records with Bill Evans : brave, pure and a treat for those who love the essence of music !
    Sure, Tony is an old man, but his craftsmanship remains, his diction is chrystal clear, he lives each word, line and note, his phrasing is original, he hits the notes, and he doesn't cover his face with his microphone, simply because he has the voice and technique not to need so. What a singer ...

    TONY BENNETT / BILL CHARLAP - The Way You Look Tonight
    On an August night in 2015 Tony Bennett and my favorite living jazz pianist Bill Charlap - alone together on a New York stage - delivered my favorite 'live' performance of this great old love song. Sent my way by the intuitive genius that is UA-cam circa 2023: As if to say, “Your other favorite version, right?” Just so.
    Bill Charlap has a unique style I love, and manages to be true to his own tasteful self, even as he 'channels' Bill Evans - the way his life-long piano hero might have played this solo, had Tony included this one on their landmark “Bennett/Evans” recordings of half a century ago.
    To put it simply: I don't think you can improve on this - do you?
    Thanks for sharing Tony Bennett. Celebrated elsewhere [search] " Great Melody, Great Lyric, Great Rendition, Songwriting Workshop, Harmony Central "

    His voice is forever beautiful! He's been one of my favorite performers since I was a little girl and I saw him on the Ed Sullivan Show. This is for his biggest fan Margaret C who passed away this weekend at the age of 94. A beautiful lady whose eyes would light up when she heard Tony Bennett sing. I don't think I will ever be able to listen to him sing now without crying.

    In this performance, Tony Bennett is 89 years old and married to Susan Crow, who was 49 years of age at the time. Much of Tony's wondewrful enthusiasm for life and drive in his singing in these golden years of him must be attributed to her, don't you think so?

    Rest in peace Tony Bennett. "Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; and everyone who is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” She said to him: “Yes, Lord, I have believed that you are the Christ, the Son of God, the one coming into the world.”

Thank you for saying that, becuz i am Native American Indian too, alot of people don't know how many Native American Indians influence the MUSIC INDUSTRY like Blues, Jazz, Folk, Pop, Rock, Heavy Metal.

    Oh, but your lovely
    With your smile so warm and your cheek so soft
    There is nothing for me, but to love you
    Just the way you look tonight
    With each word your tenderness grows
    Tearing my fear apart
    And that laugh, that wrinkles your nose
    It touches my foolish heart
    Lovely, never never change
    Keep that breathless charm
    Won't you please arrange it because I, I love you?
