Even when he was suffering from Alzheimer's he still tried to get back out to sing and succeeded. His short term memory may have been gone, but at least the years of songs and performing was always there. It never left him.
When the curtains came down his oldself came back.
I always wanted to see him perform. R.I.P Tony Bennett.
May the memory of Tony Bennett endure as a blessing. I got to see him in the ‘70s, when he was struggling in life offstage. But he never missed a note while singing.
I saw the great man live in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, back in the eighties, he was simply fabulous. Thanks for the memories big man ❤️ John 🇬🇧
Tony did something for my mother at the fox theater in Detroit that showed the wonderful man he is. Unbelievable person, class act all around. Another Italiano gone but never forgotten. Hat's off to MR Bennet. Now, that's Italian!
RIP Tony! A true legend, and no one like him. ❤🙏🙏
Alzheimer must be one of the most degrading diseases. It wipes you out day by day. RIP Tony. You did great!
My mom lived with Alzheimer's. She did recognize my brother at the end. He went in to tell her goodnight and she blew him a kiss. The next day, she had passed. She is buried with my dad in Santa Fe at the veterans cemetery. 😢 She and my dad loved Tony Bennett's music 🎵😢❤
@@corabernal6432 o bless them! I hope they are hearing Tony singing right now and dancing together on I left my heart..!
It IS, it's a horrible disease. My mother had it, for almost 10 years, passing when she was 76. In her last years, she didn't know any of us, except my Dad, she didn't speak, except for a few seconds every now and then, with only a few years. Most of the time, it was just a a vacant look in her eyes and pale skin. When she would have a brief lucid moment, her face would totally change, color would come back, she would look at you, instead of through you, a little sparkle in her eyes, and then a few seconds later, it was like a curtain dropped in front of her face, and it was back to those vacant eyes. It's heartbreaking.
RIP Mr. Tony Bennett, free from Alzheimer's. Thank you for your talent, your music. My parents both loved you, and so did I.
@@patticrichton1135 So sad. For her and her family. Wish you and yours all the best

RIP Tony - thank you for all you have contributed to this world of music. I followed you all my life and i will miss you so much. A true musical legend and incredible singer. Forever rest in peace.
No matter what kind of music you're into, if you didn't know who Tony Bennett was shows you knew very little.

Rip Anthony Dominick Benedetto, you will be missed
RIP, Handsome! 🕊️
Over recent years, I’ve patronized a tattoo establishment that had employees working there who had very progressive appearances. Low and behold the music they played mostly consisted of Sinatra, Bennett and other artists from that era. The clientele were people from 18 to 75.
I especially enjoyed when Bennett made albums of the standards with current singer. Thanks for your music Tony. It’ll live forever!
My dad died from Alzheimer's. He was only 68. He was a skeleton of the man he'd been. He'd been in a coma for a few days when I finally got to him. He awoke and I talked to him, calling myself by my childhood nickname. He opened his eyes and he knew who I was. Two of my brothers were with me and we each took turns saying goodbye. Knowing he knew who we were, made it easier to see him go. This disease robs you of so much. It hurts so much
My fellow, Universans, Planeterians, it is a humbling privilege that we are here. Make/create delightful memories Cherish each day, cherish each other, love always, today is the beginning of the rest of our lives.Mr Tony Bennett you have gracefully exited from our presence and you are now singing and awaiting our arrival. What a party we're gonna have!❤️🕺🏾
One of the all time greatest 🙏🏻🎤🎼 soar with the angels 👼🏼
What a beautiful story. Mr. Bennett defied age, but in the end, he was still a Human-Being. A life well lived.
I was just listening to him today when i heard the news. RIP Tony Bennet. Thank you for the music ❤
UA-cam please 🙏 please please please Put this full Interview back on!! I apologize for my Tears.. But this Interview was Absolutely beautiful and And Helped me understand the Hard but Real Disease of Alzheimer's...😢😢😢 Please put it back up so I can watch this full interview.
RIP Tony, you were the best.
I love Tony Bennett and Anderson Cooper, he is just sssooo down to earth for a man of his stature, just a good human being despite his famous family background...
i STILL can’t listen to “i left my heart in san francisco” without tears. which is an improvement because when he first died i would BAWL if i heard it. one of the greatest of of ALL time. i’m so sad i couldn’t see him live.
rest in peace Tony. 💕
I saw Tonny Bennet at North Sea Jazz Festivals and the doctor was right as soon as he entered the stage he just stood up and he became this presence. Such a performer. I am so glad I got to see him.
RIP Tony Bennett you beautiful man. Thank you for the songs.❤
My dad's aunt had Alzheimer's and sometimes it was really hard just being around her. She could remember something that happened 60+ years ago, but every couple minutes you had to remind her who you were or where we were going (we'd picked her up once to go to my grandfather's birthday party and I was like Anderson with Tony, having to keep reminding her who I was). In some ways she was the same woman whose house we went to when I was a kid, where she failed multiple times to teach me to play piano, and she took us to a farm in the fall to got fresh apple cider. But in others it was like dealing with a young child, whose emotions are sometimes fully out there to see (in the last few years, including the part above about the party, she was in a nursing home that had a unit for patients/residents with dementia, and it was hard to leave because she'd get so emotional as we said goodbye). Don't get me wrong, I loved her, but it was so hard to see her towards the end when remembering how she was before her diagnosis. It's sad that we were almost relieved when we were told she passed because she wasn't going through that anymore. Of course a surprise, at least for me and some of my cousins, happened at her funeral. We found out that her late husband wasn't the only one in that house who was a WW2 veteran. She was a Navy veteran, worked in communications, the exact nature of what she did, as far as I know, was still classifed that long after the war (even though most other things had been declassified years earlier) and got full military honors, first military funeral that I'd been to (been to 2 more since, for 2 of my uncles)
It’s so sad to be around so long and then your life takes you to another level one you don’t know at all but it happens to very many people. Thanks tony for all the beautiful songs you gave us to enjoy. Your singing in that heavenly choir now. ❤❤❤❤
R.I.P. Tony.The likes of you will never pass this way again.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Love you Tony!!!! We have been blessed with your music for so many wonderful years. RIP and hope to see you again.
RIP Tony my first song sung to me as a baby was one of yours loved you ever since 💔💔💔
RIP Tony, one of the last of the old great crooners, not many left.
What a GORGEOUS old fashioned guy.
Go Tony!
Class act....... RIP
❤Tony Bennett🤗❣
I remember my Mom having a crush on him. I think it made my Dad a little jealous!🤗
Merci beaucoup from Paris France 👍 !
My Uncle who is 94 was similar to Tony, but he cannot say a complete sentence and doesn't say anything, but takes naps. He is not engaged, it is sad. He talk a lot about dying. My Aunt of 85 who is his wife, who has Parkinson's, a little dizzy, and tired a lot, is having a difficult time. People who once were full of pep and vigor, no longer has it.
Not easy ,but can do it!
Tony died happy. He was brought up performing and doing cocaine. He loved both
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 so what!? YOU do better?
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 , No recent cocaine for him.
Very well done Anderson, Alzheimer's is like a onion peeling back the layers. My Grandmother had it, my Mother, and my Aunt. I thought it was just women in our family, but my cousin who's only 63 and male has it. I hope before my children and Grandchildren get old they may find a cure. I'm 70 so it does way on my mind.
He was a great entertainer . Will miss him
Life is Love
And
Love is Life...
And Tony Bennett the Greatest Troubadour of the Songs of Life ✨️ conveyed this sentiment in every song that he sang to us all throughout his lifetime...Tony Bennett is and will always be the embodiment of Love of Life ✨️
💙✨️🙏✨️💙
R.I.P. Tony Bennett ❤😢🙏
Peace be with you, Tony! Thank you for bringing such lovely music into the world.
Anderson is the right kind of person to do this interview. I think he's as kind as Tony Bennett and not every interviewer would be this respectful of someone famous with living a medical condition.
God bless him RIP 🙏
At least tony get happy when someone say omg tony Bennett it make him happy😊
What a friend in Stefani ( Lady Ga Ga) Tony had. Thank you Stefani & GOD BLESS YOU FOR ALL YOU DID FOR TONY. You could see how he lit up around you. He loved you as a friend and peformer.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰✌️I always knew he is/ was a good beautiful soul. I love you Tony! RIP.
What a guy. A true legend. RIP KING 🤴
I love you tony🎉🎉
My condolences to Tony Bennett a great man and a great singer
Life is precious.🌷
It’s like seeing Charlton Heston in his last days.
R.I.P. Tony Bennett 😢
Lovely sweet gentlemen.❤️🤗♥️
My grandmother was diagnosed in 1979 when you didn't hear or know much about it she laid in nursing home 9yrs very sad disease.
RIP Tony Bennett
I HATE these evil diseases that affect the mind! It’s bad enough when the body is affected. But to have to deal with your brain’s abilities declining is just not fair at all! God bless this dear man.
Rest in Eternal Peace Mr. Bennett🌹❤🙏
Music is much poorer ....a real legend and gentleman has gone
His music will live on and on.
Heartbreaking. We all have to go but this is such a sad way.
Thank you for it all !!❤❤❤
Great interview
Tony’s voice will always be….
Having Anderson Cooper at my last act is nothing to brag about.
What a legend we lost Tony May you rest in peace
God knows he has to make the other side worth going to. So many good people gone, and not enough bad ones gone soon enough
UNA VOZ ATERCIOPELADA FANTÁSTICO HASTA LOS ÚLTIMOS MOMENTOS DE SU VIDA HASTA SIEMPRE TONY NOS ENCONTRAREMOS EN EL CIELO 🎹🎶🎵🥁🎻🎺📯🎹🎶🎵🥁🎻🎺🎺😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😅
Condolences to Family 🙏🙏
RIP legend!
He might forget us, but we will never forget hii
Rest in peace legend 🙏 🪦
CLASS.
Such a Beautiful Man
R.i.p Tony!!!❤❤❤❤
The last of the original icons
Where Sinatra and the Rat Pack came across as having jaded corroded hearts, Bennett always seemed to be more genuine.
Now, I never met any of these men so I don't know for sure.
What's more, I'm not a great big huge Gaga fan. That's no hack against her or her fans. Your mileage may vary and all that. But I do feel that the serious work she put in to helping Tony Bennett was a generous and kind thing. My Jewish friends have a word for it in Yiddish: 'mitzvah'.
For those unaware, a 'mitzvah' is a kind act or good deed done with no expectation of reward. The act is done for the sake of the good it does for everyone, for sake of the hurts it heals, for sake of the betterment of the world. And what Lady Gaga did with and for Tony Bennett, to give an old man in his dotage one last chance at the stage that was his life, to give music that many forget, downplay or don't respect and the artists that make it the respect they deserve, was a mitzvah.
How sorry I feel he passed away.
amazing!!!!!
Rest in peace Tony
Love to family ❤.
😢❤
Omg that’s his wife, good for him!!
RIP
God loves you and takes care of you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this great universe and has complete control over it. And the greatest loss that a person loses in this life is that he lives while he does not know God who created him, knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. The great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and then you have the choice to believe in it or not. I advise you on this now before you do not have time to do that.
RIP Tony
Rip Tony Bennett
❤❤❤
Anderson Cooper better with this type thing that politics.
😢
Damn.
