I find she reminds me of a love I had/ shared with this beautiful woman. Saddly it burned bright and faded. While it lasted it was pure heaven. I love the collabaration between Bennit and Gaga. Unforgettable!
is it strange that i'm weirdly emotional over tony bennett and lady gaga's collaborations? it's just so rare to see something so pure and sweet, and to see these two wholly different individuals so completely loving each other and loving working with one another gets me.

I just heard Gaga with Tony about 6 weeks ago and she wowed me also. There is much vocal talent when these -2- artists perform.
Nicolás Lezcano yes same here, I watched her frank sinatra video if u haven't watched it pls do she has a phenomenonal voice and should not be put to waste by society's thought of music. she need to make more jazz
Until they sang together, young people didn’t know who Tony Bennett was and old people (like me) thought Lady Gaga was a joke ... She is anything but a joke 😎
Man, I love gaga. She's like, this artistic, classy, regal masterpiece that isn't afraid to show her other sexual pop yet still artful side. two opposing personalities that slide perfectly together with each other.
+toni jay listen to the lady is a tramp by those two and you'll see her true potential (although I agree this isn't as good as other versions previously made)
For the first time I think Gaga is being honest with her soul and passion towards music,this isn't flop, it's matured and seductive jazzy..I kinda like it though,the best feeling when u get to listen to jazz,it takes you way back to 50s 60s the sexiest era of all time...and she did it! she brought back those feeling just like an old time..
Sarah Gonzales ....er Jazz is still happening today and is very strong, always has been. You just have to WANT to listen to it, rather than being told what is 'on trend' or who you 'should' be listening to! Jazz is alive and very well in 2014!
When I first knew Lady Gaga a few years ago, I thought she was just a pop star with no soul, who would have expected her to be so sensitive and emotional? She was very good in pop music but now with this video and this new record we get to see how complicated and beautiful her heart and mind are.
Really? All of her pop albums are deeply reflective of who she is. She's been so soulful on all of them. Even dance tunes like Lovegame and Just Dance convey her personality so vividly. They all have deeper meanings or at least are about having fun. None of her work is as shallow as people think. She's even had some soulful ballads such as "Brown Eyes," "Speechless," "Dope," and "Gypsy," Other songs she's had that really possess some emotional introspection are "Marry the Night,"," "You and I," "The Edge of Glory," "Paparazzi," "Bad Romance," and almost all of Artpop. This woman is beyond just a ditzy pop star like so many people, including critics, have mislabeled her.
Gaga is a woman who made herself as artist. She is in charge of all the empire which has been built around her. She has not needed to be a talent show reject or the daughter of a D-list celebrity to be famous.
this friendship is just so rare, the age gap and the fact that they bond so well more than most people, when tony wiped gaga’s tears😭 and then ripped her out the piece of paper with a beautiful design on it, that just made me feel so warm inside
For me? I think ?? They have that perfect match in the music and many people out there don't realize ? That Lady Gaga studied in the field of classical jazz or standards . This genre of music ? Fits her so perfect... And Bennett ? Well that man has of course been around even since I was a Bambino back in the Bronx and Yonkers listening on Sundays to Bennett ? And all the greats back then. Sinatra, Martin Bennett Jerry Vale etc. I hope to one day see Lady Gaga perform either if im vacationing back in the city? Or ? Vegas. Gaga ? Is terrific indeed. Ciao
What a darling man Tony Bennett is - Lady Gaga said in an interview with him that he is the perfect gentlemen; he has that rare ability to reach right into the souls of people - Lady Gaga was so emotional. The part where she cried and he gently dabbed her tears with his handkerchief I cried too...
Colum Rogers Yeah! It surprised me too but maybe it's because we judge people only by what we see or what they dare to show and then someone like Tony Bennett comes along and peels back all those layers we use as armour against the world - his gentle hand and loving heart allow you to trust him enough to expose your naked heart.
***** I wish there were more Tony Bennetts in this world he reminds you what life is really all about to be more caring and accepting and less judgemental - god bless you
You can see vulnerability on her sweet face. What a soulful, beautiful, extraordinarily talented and wonderful woman you are Stephanie. Their performance is but beautiful. Tony has been my favorite for years...his phrasing is amazing. I love you Tony Bennett. Your interpretation of music touches my heart and Soul.
I am not a big fan of most "pop musicians", but Lady Gaga is simply incredible. What a voice. What a musician. What an artist! She is incredible. This crusty old Berklee grad, who listens to mostly classical and jazz, is a HUGE fan. And as a bonus, it seems that Gaga is also an amazing human being.
I would love too to see her in Broadway, pretty sure she can be a great musical actress, even win a Tony But the superbowl, i dont know, maybe in a couple years when she recovers her mainstream fame.
I believe Gaga will at some point, be on Broadway. People will try to tear her down saying it's where washed up artists end up, but in reality, it's any performers dream to be on Broadway. Wherever she ends up, we're lucky to be tagging along for the ride :-)
Did yo see her in SNL when she performed APPLAUSE...? Was quite a performance! And her shows are like broadway too. Specifically the Black Jesus performance on Born This Way Ball!
I'm a little to young to truly appreciate Tony Bennett, and a little to old to really appreciate Lady Gaga. But, the whole series of them together in duets really strikes a chord with me. My favorite is Lady is a Tramp, but all of these duets are really awesome. Totally a bridge between the 1950s and the 2000s!!!
You're never too old for Lady Gaga! I'm 70 and an avid "Little Monster", as her fans are known! Real talent knows no age. Tony knew that and saw what is inside Stefani Germanotta, aka Lady Gaga.
A masterpiece.... What a song! Mr. Tony Bennett, smooth as silk, Lady Gaga, filled with emotion, these voices fit each other... And let's not forget these great musicians.... Heaven this is! I tear up every time I listen to this particular duet. Wonderful, thank you so much. ❤️
Both are timeless. This collaboration was truly a gift to those who appreciate true artists and their love for their craft. Thank you both for creating beautiful music and sharing it.
Lady Gaga reminds me of Christina Aguilera. The diversity in their voices are impeccable. The fact that they could sing and sound good in so many different genres says something. Lady Gaga has such a unique jazz voice and you can hear it in all her songs. Christina's voice is very rock. I wish they could do like a ballad or even a pop song together. Not like the DWYW remix but like something they both wrote together.
wow! this is like the first comment i've seen in my life when someone can talk about to pop artist saying just good things about them both. The internet needs more loving comments like yours
If you're a music lover you will not complaining about jazz album lady gaga did. A true artist is the one that done everything in music. Not just stay in box and doing a same music category for a whole life. Haters will gonna hate her no matter what she did. But a real little monster will continue to love her and give a full support to her in any time..
I'm quite familiar with this song and its effect on the listener in the right hands. I knew *exactly* what these two had in store for me and welled up in pure anticipation. Stellar. Nothing but effing stellar. She'll be the most heartbroken girl in the universe when her (our) hero finally leaves us -a thought almost too much to bear- and the luckiest to have been awarded this precious time with him.
Steve X Indeed. A truly great tune by the legendary team of Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke, introduced by and originally associated with Bing Crosby and the epically beautiful Dorothy Lamour (in 1947's Road to Rio), covered wonderfully in the 50's by such heavyweights as Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Nat Cole, Johnny Hartman--and then, magnificently, by Bennett himself, on his 1975 masterpiece album collaboration with the incomparable Bill Evans. And now here, in this lovely version and accompanying video. And yes, part of the poignancy whenever these two get together (and perhaps part of the reason for Gaga's tears in the video), is that--despite their deep & obvious musical and human bond--they were born as it were out of phase with one another. And one day, all too soon, she and we will have to say goodbye for the last, last time to her impeccable partner. She will miss him I fear, but then so will I.
Now that my men are gone how I wish I could have expressed more love to them when I hear this music. How it makes me feel even now at my old age. It reaches to me inside like no other music.
I wonder if Tony is one of the only men she truly feels safe with. I don't mean this in ANY negative way... but she's shared she had some horrific experiences. In any case, and regardless, I've been a huge fan of hers since she first "hit the big stage," and I'm awed by her range, talent, and diversity. Thank you, Lady Gaga. Oh, and DEFINITELY thanks to you, Tony. Truly the class of the Pack.
+Kody Marley Dang, I didn't know that happened to her! I'm not a fan of hers by any means, but I hate for that to happen to _anyone_, and that makes the original comment make that much more sense. I came here because I have a class project where I have to put on paper and spreadsheet how I would spend $20K on a recording studio, and jazz is my music of choice so I came here to take note of equipment I would need for such a setting. If she was coupled up with Tony Bennett, then chances were promising I would enjoy the song. ...and +toad g, even if she has not behaved like a lady, no one has *_any_* business violating her, especially anyone she works with and depends on!
A young singer learning how to phrase, and slow ALL down, as most singers need to learn. She collaborated with Mr. Bennett for years later too. God Bless Mr. Bennett in heaven, and thank you Ms. Gaga, for engaging him in his later years. I can only imagine how very much he appreciated that.
Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett's number one album, Cheek to Cheek is officially nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album at the 57th GRAMMY Awards...Congratulations Gaga & Tony
i find it really amazing that everytime Lady Gaga sang a really sad songs or just plain emotional.. I love it how she just jumps right into that song and gave it life, like it was about her. She sang it so beautifully. I can never stop listening to her wonderful and emotional voice.
This right here is why I love this woman ! Pure emotion and chemistry....nothing fake or cheesey about this. This is what music is SUPPOSE to be about, raw emotion
Lyrics: Love is funny, or it's sad Or it's quiet, or it's mad It's a good thing or it's bad But beautiful Beautiful to take a chance And if you fall you fall And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all Love is tearful, or it's gay It's a problem or it's play It's a heartache either way But beautiful And I'm thinking if you were mine I'd never let you go And that would be but beautiful I know But beautiful And I'm thinking if you were mine I'd never let you go And that would be but beautiful I know
This ol native Bronx guy here? Has enjoyed over the decades the great Italian American jazz singers since I was a bambino listening on the Sunday family gatherings in My late Grandparents place in Yonkers . The greats like Sinatra ... Dino , Of course Bennett as well and Jerry Vale and a few others. But listen here . To me ? Lady Gaga's voice in these great standards in jazz? Are for me? Beyond words. For this Italian guy? The first time I heard Lady Gaga sing with Tony? I was hooked to put it? Mildly . In close here? I hope one day before I pass ? I will get the honors to see ? And hear the incredible voice of Lady Gage in person and? Perhaps be lucky to meet and shake hands with yet? Another great Native New Yorker who has graced so many with great music. Molto Bene Bella Gaga. Bellissima So if I may? This old Italian guy loves Lady Gaga and how incredible she sings . Ciao ! 😊👍
Gagas voice makes me feel so comfortable i can listen her all day

Thank You Ilksen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Je trouve que LADY GAGA est belle au naturel, je suis content qu'elle chante du Jazz, avec Tony BENNETT, LADY GAGA a une Voix Magnifique et je la trouve très Belle !!!!!!!!!!! elle est d'origine Italienne, celà me rend fier d'etre moi meme d'origine Italienne, plus particulièrement de la Sardaigne !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stefani Joanne Angelina GERMANOTTA (LADY GAGA) BELLISSIMA PRINCIPESSA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FORZA ITALIA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAVO A TONY BENNETT ET LADY GAGA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BISOU (KISS) ILKSEN GERMANOTTA
Lady Gaga, (Stephanie)... You are such a true star. Super talented, creative and classy to boot. The friendship and loving chemistry between you & Mr Tony Bennett is effortless and palpable. I love watching all of your performances and movies, you just get better with age! I watched your recent Stephen Colbert interview on The Late Show, post doing House of Gucci, I admired you even more..you came across so elegantly and intelligent and so at peace with yourself. Stellar performance. Keep being the amazing human being that you are, you bring me so much joy
Pure magic. Listen to and watch the chemistry. She is smitten and everyone in that room knows it. I think he was, too. The handkerchief; the little painting he gave her. I hope another kind of music happened between them because if it didn't--there's something wrong with life.
what a pure joy listening to this duet : Gaga and Tony are taking us away on the sweetest velvet wings of that kinda Jazz we all love .. Gaga will always be the lady of my heart. God !! What an amazing artist !!
This is why Lady Gaga is better than any other artist out there. She's got talent and she's got an amazing voice. She knows how to dance, perform, wear interesting outfits, she writes her own music, she produces her own music.
Wow!!!! When Tony dabbed her face to wipe her tear, that was just - well - more than moving. It almost brought a tear to my eye, too!! Gorgeous. So glad I stumbled on this video even though I think I've heard the audio of it once or twice! Thank you for it!!
I freaking love the passion that Lady Gaga put into singing this song! Not gonna lie I may have shed a tear or two because this song wasn't just great, but beautiful too!
Tony and Lady Gaga made a perfect team....also they make me proud to be Italian...lol...I'm so glad they made these wonderful recordings.....Rest In Peace Tony, I loved your music : )💜
The haters are gonna hate and criticize her career -- but I think this is a significant point in her career. She is transforming from a pop star, to a musical icon. Every musician grows, and this is her growing into something larger. Musicians should never fear expanding their musical resume.
two phenomenal artists. got to see Tony at the Hollywood Bowl. I understand Gaga crying. his talent was unreal and for me this song was one of his best...
This song is so beautiful I can't imagine anyone else singing it Gaga and tony have so much passion together nothing or nobody can't break it apart this song is one of my favourites and every time I watch this video and hear this song I cry because of how much passion and love they put into there voices it's so amazingly beautiful I can't describe with any other word amazing song Gaga and tony I love you both so much xx
I have the Cheek to Cheek CD...I'm old school....Listened to the "But Beautiful" song last night driving back from dinner and pressed rewind a few times....just GORGEOUS! Just need to find someone I would never want to let go of. LOL (-: Tony is a CLASSIC and Lady Gaga sings so beautifully with him! Saw him a few years ago...just incredible, old-school charm and a gentleman yet he's also a modern gent.
This is beautiful... I never listen or watch GaGa music until I randomly clicked on the Tony Bennet collaboration and I absolutely love it. I wish I would have listened to this sooner and went to a concert. I'm not into the ArtPop or Born This Way era, however this has opened up my mind to Lady Gaga. Tony is timeless, the instrumentals amazing and her collaboration is beautiful. I never thought I would buy a Lady Gaga album, but this may be the first one I download. Lovely.
I’m only now in 2021 seeing this video. At age 76, I’ve always been aware of Tony Bennett and the era he comes from. I never knew much about Lady Gaga, but because of her collaborations with Tony, I’m becoming a huge fan. We’ve had so many great women jazz vocalists, but Lady Gaga is without a doubt the greatest. She just reaches deep deep deep into my soul just as she clearly reaches into Tony’s. I can’t get enough of her.
This proves lady Gaga has an amazing voice. I don't normally listen to her music, but if she stays this style I will love her forever. I have always loved her as a person, now I love her as an artist.
Here in 2023 and just heard about Tony's passing!! This made me cry because this is one of my most FAVORITE and BEAUTIFUL duets between Tony and Lady Gaga!!❤❤😢 Their voices are truly incredible, and Tony even in his golden years sounded absolutely amazing!! Tony was, and will always be one of a kind; such a lovely, kindhearted man with his beautiful spirit... rest in peace Tony, you will be forever missed Sir!!🕊️❤️😢🙏🙏
Funny how times have changed. She became famous with her crazy outfits, performances, etc. After the other pop singers tried to copy her and show up with weird outfits and performances themselfs, gaga took this road... Her voice has always been amazing but in my opinion it sounds best in this music genre :)
Just love it how haters r trying to troll on every single video Gaga released and calling her a flop when the fact that ARTPOP and Cheek to Cheek are #1 on Billboard. They talk about nothing but sales and charts when they really don't matter. Plus, jazz CANNOT be compared to pop music. They are very different from each other. Jazz is a difficult genre to master. For Gaga to have this album go #1, THAT is sheer talent. I hope she wins a Grammy with Tony Bennett. If they don't, I'm gonna lose complete faith in humanity.
This duet is the bomb! Love that part when Lady Gaga does "that would be but beautiful" lyric. Tony Bennett is the man! A legend of the Rat Pack era. He knows how jazz and standards should be sung! When Tony does that "And I'm thinking if you were mine". Their lyrical harmony and note phrasing is tight! These songs are ageless for any generation who can connect and feels the want and need of love and relationship in their lives. Love this song. when you play it it changes your whole day and can change the hope of a lonely life!
Lady Gaga is beautiful and her voice is unmatched. She is insanely talented and drop dead looks to kill!! Im a rocker dont even like this kind of stuff but talent is talent. All the other female singers mind as well stay home.
Her face, expressions, the voice exuding love, the energy is magical, most likely kept him alive for many years after. He loved her, she loves him. Destiny their friendship, homes close to each other in NY. Thank you for allowing my heart to open/feel. The is so beautiful here, little make up, raw Lady Gaga.
I liked Lady Gaga's pop music, but this kind of music is timeless. Simply beautiful. This with a glass of fine whisky is all a man needs at the end of a long day.
A song from 1947 -- one of the two best collaborations by Johnny Burke & Jimmy Van Heusen. (Five years later, they would give the world their beloved “Here's That Rainy Day.”) Siriusly Sinatra satellite radio just played Lady Gaga's BUT BEAUTIFUL duet with Tony Bennett: dare I say, my “new favorite version”! First offering at UA-cam -- this one: A delightful 'live' in studio recording (nearing 5 million “views”) which features some brilliant jazz musicians with a string arrangement that could only have been by Jorge Calandrelli who has worked with Tony on a dozen previous recordings.
I'm a guitarist and that's one of my jazz heroes, Gray Sargent, who has been with Tony longer than almost any other musician in his almost seven-decade career. Love his tone-setting opening notes on this beauty. Thanks for sharing Lady Gaga. Celebrated this night at Sinatra Family - Forum - "Siriusly Sinatra" - MY FAVORITE VERSION, YOURS TOO? sinatrafamily.com/forum/showthread.php/50225-My-Favorite-Version-%28yours-too-%29?p=1288962#post1288962
Despite of their era or age, talents speak ! Lady Gaga - she’s not only talented but her genre is so wide which surprisingly her jazzy mood is so deep ! I was born in a very jazzy family, Lady Gaga and Amy Winehouse nailed all those nostalgic and jazzy moods which I certainly think Ella F, Sarah Vaughn, Carmen Macrea would agreed.
Their version is very Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga! I love both of their voices, so this song is a particularly great example of quality, magical music smooth enough to conjure up cool emotion! Wonderful.
My God!!! I didnt know!! How did I miss this?? Lady Gaga is absolutely beautiful!! BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I can pass on knowing ive seen the most beautiful girl in the galaxy!!! No crap, no hype!!! Shes beautiful!!!
![Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga @ Jazz at Lincoln Center • New York • [Juillet 2014]](/img/n.gif)
When Tony Bennett wiped tears off of Lady's eyes, I cried. I need a hanky too.
Absolute class
Why was gaga crying?? She just got emotional or was she sad for something??
Me too
I find she reminds me of a love I had/ shared with this beautiful woman. Saddly it burned bright and faded. While it lasted it was pure heaven. I love the collabaration between Bennit and Gaga. Unforgettable!

If you want to take a walk on the wild side, check out Kurt Elling - 8 times Bluenote jazz vocalist of the year. You could start with Nature Boy.
Until they sang together, young people didn’t know who Tony Bennett was
and old people (like me) thought Lady Gaga was a joke ... She is anything but a joke 😎
@@richardparker6985 Well said. I'll own that (as one of the old people).
I think foi never hear Ella, Sarah, Billie, Callas...
Man, I love gaga. She's like, this artistic, classy, regal masterpiece that isn't afraid to show her other sexual pop yet still artful side. two opposing personalities that slide perfectly together with each other.
basically any era/genre she'd still kill it
+toni jay listen to the lady is a tramp by those two and you'll see her true potential (although I agree this isn't as good as other versions previously made)
+toni jay Shut up!
Hugely talented, sweet perhaps …but not classy unfortunately
lady gaga should sing for a disney film,her voice is so perfect !! listen to this song and you will understand what i mean
YASS
***** and John Christian wouldnt it be perfect?
***** i think this with The queen And But Beautiful
i wish
***** thanks alot!
For the first time I think Gaga is being honest with her soul and passion towards music,this isn't flop, it's matured and seductive jazzy..I kinda like it though,the best feeling when u get to listen to jazz,it takes you way back to 50s 60s the sexiest era of all time...and she did it! she brought back those feeling just like an old time..
I think jazz took place 30s or 40s actually, 70s and 80s were disco or rock or something haha
Sarah Gonzales 20s ;)
My bad yeah but still jazz left behind somewhere around those golden ages, I bet around 40s 50s 60s it was a huge hit
Sarah Gonzales ....er Jazz is still happening today and is very strong, always has been. You just have to WANT to listen to it, rather than being told what is 'on trend' or who you 'should' be listening to! Jazz is alive and very well in 2014!

Well I love her jazz side.But I like her more at pop because she writes her music it's amazing and catchy.I love her at any genre anyway
I kinda disagree, since her beginning I knew she was very talented and passionate + her pre Gaga album Red and Blue is amazing
Eduardo Dias you dont have to disagree hun. It's his own story of perception and realization:)
Really? All of her pop albums are deeply reflective of who she is. She's been so soulful on all of them. Even dance tunes like Lovegame and Just Dance convey her personality so vividly. They all have deeper meanings or at least are about having fun. None of her work is as shallow as people think.

@@vinceparlante3723 i just learned Tony has Alzheimer’s and Im binging anything related to them.
He is a true gentleman - very rare these days
People connect on a soul level
She needs to make an album of jazz standards! Her voice is perfect for it!
She has two of them, cheek to cheek(2014), and Love for sale released this year ♥️
I agree
That room is filled with so much passion and love for music. You cannot only see it but you can hear it. I am so moved.
Tony and Gaga have such an authentic connection.....just beautiful. Their souls are like knitted together in music.
Listen to Tony on Facebook at: Friends of Tony Bennett
What a darling man Tony Bennett is - Lady Gaga said in an interview with him that he is the perfect gentlemen; he has that rare ability to reach right into the souls of people - Lady Gaga was so emotional. The part where she cried and he gently dabbed her tears with his handkerchief I cried too...
Love them. An unusual collaboration but it really works :)
Colum Rogers Yeah! It surprised me too but maybe it's because we judge people only by what we see or what they dare to show and then someone like Tony Bennett comes along and peels back all those layers we use as armour against the world - his gentle hand and loving heart allow you to trust him enough to expose your naked heart.

Remember me? xD You were Dami Im's video... ahah xD
EternalShockk Hey! How are you - lol!! Nice to hear from you - as for the Dami armi - I miss those guys aaaaaahh!!!!
It’s sad and heartbreaking to see him gone. Not only one of the best singers but also human beings.
You can see vulnerability on her sweet face. What a soulful, beautiful, extraordinarily talented and wonderful woman you are
Stephanie. Their performance is but beautiful. Tony has been my favorite for years...his phrasing is amazing. I love you Tony Bennett. Your interpretation of music touches my heart and Soul.
LOVE THIS COMMENT!!! Well said! BRAVO!
I agree just beautiful
RIP to the great Tony Bennet, thank you for all you did for the jazz. LEGEND FOREVER.
They really don't make songs like this these days. People these days no longer know what love is like.
im so glad gaga's turning into this kind of music. thank you.
se luce muchisimo mas que con la musica pop.
I think she always be in thins kind of music. Now just started to record jazz and singing jazz in front of public
Exacto
Este "tipo de música" no necesita de ella
Jazz lives
I am not a big fan of most "pop musicians", but Lady Gaga is simply incredible. What a voice. What a musician. What an artist! She is incredible. This crusty old Berklee grad, who listens to mostly classical and jazz, is a HUGE fan. And as a bonus, it seems that Gaga is also an amazing human being.
that' s becaue she can sing anything
Thanks to Akon, who found her
These beautiful souls are bound together by the beautiful old songs they shared. Hope more young people will give them a try.
This is perfect for rainy English weather
True. It rained two hours ago here. It should had released back then ;(
I know right it hasn't stopped today
Raining a lot here in portugal
Littlemonster Lauren
And still going
It's hot as hell here in Brazil :/ I'm jealous
What a couple!!!
She should sing for a Broadway act.
And she really deserves the Halftime show of the Super Bowl, but we need to wait. She is great.
I would love too to see her in Broadway, pretty sure she can be a great musical actress, even win a Tony
But the superbowl, i dont know, maybe in a couple years when she recovers her mainstream fame.
Exactly!
I believe Gaga will at some point, be on Broadway. People will try to tear her down saying it's where washed up artists end up, but in reality, it's any performers dream to be on Broadway. Wherever she ends up, we're lucky to be tagging along for the ride :-)
Did yo see her in SNL when she performed APPLAUSE...?
Was quite a performance! And her shows are like broadway too.
Specifically the Black Jesus performance on Born This Way Ball!
Am I the only one who thinks Lady Gaga looks beautiful?
No, you aren´t she looks great and her voice is beautiful too!!!
Candy Lion Her voice is a gift to the humanity ;)
Yes youre absolutly right!!
She is.
Mrs. Deneuve no you are not
I'm a little to young to truly appreciate Tony Bennett, and a little to old to really appreciate Lady Gaga. But, the whole series of them together in duets really strikes a chord with me. My favorite is Lady is a Tramp, but all of these duets are really awesome. Totally a bridge between the 1950s and the 2000s!!!
Beautiful comment, and so very true!!! NICE!
Striking comment, was thinking the exact same thing just now!
You're never too old for Lady Gaga! I'm 70 and an avid "Little Monster", as her fans are known! Real talent knows no age. Tony knew that and saw what is inside Stefani Germanotta, aka Lady Gaga.
A masterpiece.... What a song!
Mr. Tony Bennett, smooth as silk, Lady Gaga, filled with emotion, these voices fit each other...
And let's not forget these great musicians.... Heaven this is!
I tear up every time I listen to this particular duet.
Wonderful, thank you so much. ❤️
dont forget the aMAZING Grey Sargent and his soulful guitar
Both are timeless. This collaboration was truly a gift to those who appreciate true artists and their love for their craft. Thank you both for creating beautiful music and sharing it.
Gaga is more awesome than I thought. Great performance!
This music genre suits her. I like this side of her
This music genre suits her. I like this side of her
+cherryl anne Bataller it sure does!!
+cherryl anne Bataller In my opinion most genres fit her...
Lady Gaga reminds me of Christina Aguilera. The diversity in their voices are impeccable. The fact that they could sing and sound good in so many different genres says something. Lady Gaga has such a unique jazz voice and you can hear it in all her songs. Christina's voice is very rock. I wish they could do like a ballad or even a pop song together. Not like the DWYW remix but like something they both wrote together.
wow! this is like the first comment i've seen in my life when someone can talk about to pop artist saying just good things about them both. The internet needs more loving comments like yours
Daniel Pumarino Andrade Yes, we need more love and comments like that one! =)
Agree, something like "Beautiful" of Christina, it could be a great duet.
thanks for not bashing anyone. spread the positiveness!
If you're a music lover you will not complaining about jazz album lady gaga did. A true artist is the one that done everything in music. Not just stay in box and doing a same music category for a whole life. Haters will gonna hate her no matter what she did. But a real little monster will continue to love her and give a full support to her in any time..
Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga Singing Together... A Master - Piece 👏👏👏.. BEAUTIFUL!💞👏👏👏
"..beautiful to take a chance and if you fall, you fall"
this video is more proof that she's adorable.
Yeah
I'm quite familiar with this song and its effect on the listener in the right hands. I knew *exactly* what these two had in store for me and welled up in pure anticipation. Stellar. Nothing but effing stellar.
She'll be the most heartbroken girl in the universe when her (our) hero finally leaves us -a thought almost too much to bear- and the luckiest to have been awarded this precious time with him.
What a fantastic comment Steve.
Roy Willis Sorry for replying to that comment earlier. It was meant for Christopher Neil.
ok my friend !
Roy Willis I agree
Steve X Indeed. A truly great tune by the legendary team of Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke, introduced by and originally associated with Bing Crosby and the epically beautiful Dorothy Lamour (in 1947's Road to Rio), covered wonderfully in the 50's by such heavyweights as Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Nat Cole, Johnny Hartman--and then, magnificently, by Bennett himself, on his 1975 masterpiece album collaboration with the incomparable Bill Evans. And now here, in this lovely version and accompanying video.
And yes, part of the poignancy whenever these two get together (and perhaps part of the reason for Gaga's tears in the video), is that--despite their deep & obvious musical and human bond--they were born as it were out of phase with one another. And one day, all too soon, she and we will have to say goodbye for the last, last time to her impeccable partner. She will miss him I fear, but then so will I.
God, Lady Gaga is so beautiful.
Lady Gaga so elegant and stylish whenever she appears with Tony.
Now that my men are gone how I wish I could have expressed more love to them when I hear this music. How it makes me feel even now at my old age. It reaches to me inside like no other music.
I wonder if Tony is one of the only men she truly feels safe with. I don't mean this in ANY negative way... but she's shared she had some horrific experiences. In any case, and regardless, I've been a huge fan of hers since she first "hit the big stage," and I'm awed by her range, talent, and diversity. Thank you, Lady Gaga. Oh, and DEFINITELY thanks to you, Tony. Truly the class of the Pack.
+weho1233 You're*
Dumbass.
I'm just saying, if you're going to call someone else a dumbass at least be grammatically correct.
+Kody Marley What happened to her ??
+Kody Marley Dang, I didn't know that happened to her! I'm not a fan of hers by any means, but I hate for that to happen to _anyone_, and that makes the original comment make that much more sense. I came here because I have a class project where I have to put on paper and spreadsheet how I would spend $20K on a recording studio, and jazz is my music of choice so I came here to take note of equipment I would need for such a setting. If she was coupled up with Tony Bennett, then chances were promising I would enjoy the song.
...and +toad g, even if she has not behaved like a lady, no one has *_any_* business violating her, especially anyone she works with and depends on!
Lavenderrose73 What if she violated a man?
A young singer learning how to phrase, and slow ALL down, as most singers need to learn.
She collaborated with Mr. Bennett for years later too.
God Bless Mr. Bennett in heaven, and thank you Ms. Gaga, for engaging him in his later years.
I can only imagine how very much he appreciated that.
Man, you scared me. No, fortunately Mr. Tony Bennett is still alive at 96 years of age.
Lord....a piece of my heart is gone. Lady Gaga....wow....what a passionate singer and what a voice.
It's one of my favourites albums. Gaga's voice shines in jazz. Timeless music.
August 2022...WOOOOOOOW. This is beautiful, This is just a classical masterpiece
Is she crying like for real ? omg... this song is perfect
This has to be one of the most beautiful love songs ever written.
This made me cry so much
Me too!
Jermaine Spence me too😢❤️
Guys, seriously, how could ANYONE dislike this song? I dare to say this is objectively good, how could you not like it? jeez
Kinda random, but I absolutely love Gaga's hair in this
Menno Toonstra koooilhihiBHIxtra
Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett's number one album, Cheek to Cheek is officially nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album at the 57th GRAMMY Awards...Congratulations Gaga & Tony
i find it really amazing that everytime Lady Gaga sang a really sad songs or just plain emotional.. I love it how she just jumps right into that song and gave it life, like it was about her. She sang it so beautifully. I can never stop listening to her wonderful and emotional voice.
The great musicians don't just perform a song - they become the song.
Robert Thorpe I agree I remember Sinatra commenting that whatever people said about him, when he sang he believed.
This right here is why I love this woman ! Pure emotion and chemistry....nothing fake or cheesey about this. This is what music is SUPPOSE to be about, raw emotion
Lyrics:
Love is funny, or it's sad
Or it's quiet, or it's mad
It's a good thing or it's bad
But beautiful
Beautiful to take a chance
And if you fall you fall
And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all
Love is tearful, or it's gay
It's a problem or it's play
It's a heartache either way
But beautiful
And I'm thinking if you were mine
I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful I know
But beautiful
And I'm thinking if you were mine
I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful I know
This ol native Bronx guy here? Has enjoyed over the decades the great Italian American jazz singers since I was a bambino listening on the Sunday family gatherings in My late Grandparents place in Yonkers . The greats like Sinatra ... Dino , Of course Bennett as well and Jerry Vale and a few others. But listen here . To me ? Lady Gaga's voice in these great standards in jazz? Are for me? Beyond words. For this Italian guy? The first time I heard Lady Gaga sing with Tony? I was hooked to put it? Mildly . In close here? I hope one day before I pass ? I will get the honors to see ? And hear the incredible voice of Lady Gage in person and? Perhaps be lucky to meet and shake hands with yet? Another great Native New Yorker who has graced so many with great music. Molto Bene Bella Gaga. Bellissima So if I may? This old Italian guy loves Lady Gaga and how incredible she sings . Ciao ! 😊👍
Gagas voice makes me feel so comfortable i can listen her all day
Thank You Ilksen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Je trouve que LADY GAGA est belle au naturel,

Stefani Joanne Angelina GERMANOTTA

TONY BENNETT ET LADY GAGA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BISOU (KISS) ILKSEN GERMANOTTA
she has a magical effect on me too, whatever the song she sing I feel safe :') ♥
Lady Gaga, (Stephanie)... You are such a true star. Super talented, creative and classy to boot. The friendship and loving chemistry between you & Mr Tony Bennett is effortless and palpable. I love watching all of your performances and movies, you just get better with age! I watched your recent Stephen Colbert interview on The Late Show, post doing House of Gucci, I admired you even more..you came across so elegantly and intelligent and so at peace with yourself. Stellar performance. Keep being the amazing human being that you are, you bring me so much joy
Pure magic. Listen to and watch the chemistry. She is smitten and everyone in that room knows it. I think he was, too. The handkerchief; the little painting he gave her. I hope another kind of music happened between them because if it didn't--there's something wrong with life.
shnewsman he's happily married but I betcha they truly love and admire each other.
RIP TONY BENNETT, HIS MUSIC WAS AMAZING
what a pure joy listening to this duet : Gaga and Tony are taking us away on the sweetest velvet wings of that kinda Jazz we all love .. Gaga will always be the lady of my heart. God !! What an amazing artist !!
This is why Lady Gaga is better than any other artist out there. She's got talent and she's got an amazing voice. She knows how to dance, perform, wear interesting outfits, she writes her own music, she produces her own music.
There goes my heart.
❤
Wow!!!! When Tony dabbed her face to wipe her tear, that was just - well - more than moving. It almost brought a tear to my eye, too!! Gorgeous. So glad I stumbled on this video even though I think I've heard the audio of it once or twice! Thank you for it!!
I freaking love the passion that Lady Gaga put into singing this song! Not gonna lie I may have shed a tear or two because this song wasn't just great, but beautiful too!
👍👍💜
This woman.. I'm sorry, I need a moment. ~tears~
Yasmin de Carvalho Yes. The ears on my heart got my tears flowing, too ... watching Tony wipe her tears ... what a gentleman ...and what a Lady
....... beautiful
What a beautiful song!!!!!!!! I almost cried listening to it. They just sound amazing together.
Ps. Sidhant Khatri
They suck :p
:p for Lady Gaga!
Why the hell would u almost cry Annas Ghani Sidhant Khatri
Its beautiful because the greatest popular music ever composed was called 'The Great American Songbook'.
This is the real Lady Gaga. I am sorry you were unhappy. You are beautiful.
I absolutely, adore both Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett!!!
Their voices blend in so beautifully x0x
Tony and Lady Gaga made a perfect team....also they make me proud to be Italian...lol...I'm so glad they made these wonderful recordings.....Rest In Peace Tony, I loved your music : )💜
The haters are gonna hate and criticize her career -- but I think this is a significant point in her career. She is transforming from a pop star, to a musical icon. Every musician grows, and this is her growing into something larger. Musicians should never fear expanding their musical resume.
She says Tony gave her her career and I believe she gave him his second one. Beautiful for sure!
Those beautiful Jimmy VanHeusen ballads out of the 1940's - So moving. Tony, Lady GaGa and his musicians are just fantastic.
in case anyone thinks Lady Gaga can't sing - this CD is AMAZING!
Two generations mixed in right here, it's so...glamorous.
She truly enjoys singing with Tony.. Because she had jazz when pop world rejected her
All I can say is that's awesome classy, elegant, smart, sophisticated, upscale music at it's best!
MMMMM SO beautiful!!! Then he wipes her tears....I cried!!!! SUCH an emotional song...especially with the 2 of them. Priceless.
I'm an old guy who had never heard Lady Gaga until now. What a fine singer!
two phenomenal artists. got to see Tony at the Hollywood Bowl. I understand Gaga crying. his talent was unreal and for me this song was one of his best...
And of you fall you fall and the melancholic sweetness of the orchestra comes dropping slow...
This song is so beautiful I can't imagine anyone else singing it Gaga and tony have so much passion together nothing or nobody can't break it apart this song is one of my favourites and every time I watch this video and hear this song I cry because of how much passion and love they put into there voices it's so amazingly beautiful I can't describe with any other word amazing song Gaga and tony I love you both so much xx
Still cherish this song ❤
Im in tears watching this is soooooooooooo beautiful. my god
Yeah, she really is Beautiful. Beautiful voice. Beautiful woman.
I have the Cheek to Cheek CD...I'm old school....Listened to the "But Beautiful" song last night driving back from dinner and pressed rewind a few times....just GORGEOUS! Just need to find someone I would never want to let go of. LOL (-: Tony is a CLASSIC and Lady Gaga sings so beautifully with him! Saw him a few years ago...just incredible, old-school charm and a gentleman yet he's also a modern gent.
I keep coming back to this. I think it may be the single most beautiful piece of music I've heard.
sigung01 it is so emotional😰and beautiful
This is beautiful... I never listen or watch GaGa music until I randomly clicked on the Tony Bennet collaboration and I absolutely love it. I wish I would have listened to this sooner and went to a concert. I'm not into the ArtPop or Born This Way era, however this has opened up my mind to Lady Gaga. Tony is timeless, the instrumentals amazing and her collaboration is beautiful. I never thought I would buy a Lady Gaga album, but this may be the first one I download. Lovely.
Comments like these restore my faith in humanity. To be able to look beyond what u think of someone to see what they can really do is really great :)
I’m only now in 2021 seeing this video. At age 76, I’ve always been aware of Tony Bennett and the era he comes from. I never knew much about Lady Gaga, but because of her collaborations with Tony, I’m becoming a huge fan. We’ve had so many great women jazz vocalists, but Lady Gaga is without a doubt the greatest. She just reaches deep deep deep into my soul just as she clearly reaches into Tony’s. I can’t get enough of her.
This proves lady Gaga has an amazing voice. I don't normally listen to her music, but if she stays this style I will love her forever. I have always loved her as a person, now I love her as an artist.
I'd never let you go Tony ... RIP 😔😟 from Argentina
Here in 2023 and just heard about Tony's passing!! This made me cry because this is one of my most FAVORITE and BEAUTIFUL duets between Tony and Lady Gaga!!❤❤😢
Their voices are truly incredible, and Tony even in his golden years sounded absolutely amazing!!
Tony was, and will always be one of a kind; such a lovely, kindhearted man with his beautiful spirit... rest in peace Tony, you will be forever missed Sir!!🕊️❤️😢🙏🙏
Funny how times have changed. She became famous with her crazy outfits, performances, etc. After the other pop singers tried to copy her and show up with weird outfits and performances themselfs, gaga took this road...
Her voice has always been amazing but in my opinion it sounds best in this music genre :)
They can copy her looks, but her voice...there's only one Gaga.
So trueee
in 2011 i remember Rihanna,Katy , Nicki and Kesha tried to be like her.
Everybody wanted to be "the new Lady Gaga" such a bunch of idiots, ahe is just genuin and pure art.
Is this Nicki shade
Just love it how haters r trying to troll on every single video Gaga released and calling her a flop when the fact that ARTPOP and Cheek to Cheek are #1 on Billboard. They talk about nothing but sales and charts when they really don't matter. Plus, jazz CANNOT be compared to pop music. They are very different from each other. Jazz is a difficult genre to master. For Gaga to have this album go #1, THAT is sheer talent. I hope she wins a Grammy with Tony Bennett. If they don't, I'm gonna lose complete faith in humanity.
This duet is the bomb! Love that part when Lady Gaga does "that would be but beautiful" lyric. Tony Bennett is the man! A legend of the Rat Pack era. He knows how jazz and standards should be sung! When Tony does that "And I'm thinking if you were mine". Their lyrical harmony and note phrasing is tight! These songs are ageless for any generation who can connect and feels the want and need of love and relationship in their lives. Love this song. when you play it it changes your whole day and can change the hope of a lonely life!
Lady Gaga is beautiful and her voice is unmatched. She is insanely talented and drop dead looks to kill!! Im a rocker dont even like this kind of stuff but talent is talent. All the other female singers mind as well stay home.
Her face, expressions, the voice exuding love, the energy is magical, most likely kept him alive for many years after. He loved her, she loves him. Destiny their friendship, homes close to each other in NY. Thank you for allowing my heart to open/feel. The is so beautiful here, little make up, raw Lady Gaga.
I liked Lady Gaga's pop music, but this kind of music is timeless. Simply beautiful. This with a glass of fine whisky is all a man needs at the end of a long day.
omg! I cried listening to this very
beautiful duet,. everything is just so purrrrfect!!!!
Ana Maria Zavalla it always brings me to tears.
RIP Tony Bennett
RIP to an incredible legend. Thank you, Tony. 🥺
A song from 1947 -- one of the two best collaborations by Johnny Burke & Jimmy Van Heusen. (Five years later, they would give the world their beloved “Here's That Rainy Day.”)
Siriusly Sinatra satellite radio just played Lady Gaga's BUT BEAUTIFUL duet with Tony Bennett: dare I say, my “new favorite version”!
First offering at UA-cam -- this one: A delightful 'live' in studio recording (nearing 5 million “views”) which features some brilliant jazz musicians with a string arrangement that could only have been by Jorge Calandrelli who has worked with Tony on a dozen previous recordings.
I'm a guitarist and that's one of my jazz heroes, Gray Sargent, who has been with Tony longer than almost any other musician in his almost seven-decade career. Love his tone-setting opening notes on this beauty.
Thanks for sharing Lady Gaga. Celebrated this night at Sinatra Family - Forum - "Siriusly Sinatra" - MY FAVORITE VERSION, YOURS TOO? sinatrafamily.com/forum/showthread.php/50225-My-Favorite-Version-%28yours-too-%29?p=1288962#post1288962
this is perfect.
Despite of their era or age, talents speak ! Lady Gaga - she’s not only talented but her genre is so wide which surprisingly her jazzy mood is so deep !
I was born in a very jazzy family, Lady Gaga and Amy Winehouse nailed all those nostalgic and jazzy moods which I certainly think Ella F, Sarah Vaughn, Carmen Macrea would agreed.
Their version is very Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga! I love both of their voices, so this song is a particularly great example of quality, magical music smooth enough to conjure up cool emotion! Wonderful.
These two New Yorkers singing together was beautiful.
My God!!! I didnt know!! How did I miss this?? Lady Gaga is absolutely beautiful!! BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I can pass on knowing ive seen the most beautiful girl in the galaxy!!! No crap, no hype!!! Shes beautiful!!!
