RIP Tony. Unfortunate for us, there'll never be another one like you. ❤
Get a life
I'm not crying you are crying.....
Your statement is.....inaccurate. Right now, as I post this comment there is a government lab in New Mexico (partially funded by an international media conglomerate) that is training Tony's clone to move, speak and sing as the original did.
@345mrse I've heard that, too. They're also cloning Mickey Rooney, but at the same age that he was in the first Andy Rooney film. It's called 'The Bennadetto/Hardy Project: Phat Tony and Little Boy. What will those cats drum up next. But, it should be 'a blast'.
@@345mrse thank goodness not cloning you
My husband and I saw Tony a few years back in Worcester Massachusetts. At one point he asked for quiet, put down the microphone and sang without it. His voice filled the auditorium at 80 some years old! One of the most impressive musical treats I’ve ever experienced. A real legend. RIP, you did it all in San Francisco and many cities! ❤
Such a joy! I saw him at an old old theater in Minnesota's Twin Cities and he did the same thing...some friends were in the back row and said the acoustics were so good they could every nuance in his singing. The a wonder.
I saw Him ..one point...no Microphone...Old days 1920s..
RIP Tony Bennett. Such a class act.
Did Baldwin shoot him?
Tony Bennett has always seemed like one of the most joyous people around, always smiling, and always looking dapper. Just a cool guy.
Yeah that dude for sure loves his job and making people happy. He even went on PBS and was a guest on a show in 1975 for another guy that had the same effect on people--Fred Rogers.
He’s just a great… great… great guy 👍
Came here to watch this again as soon as I heard Tony Bennett passed. RIP Legend
RIP Tony Bennett. Always loved this SNL appearance of his.
I swear to god if SNL doesn’t get Baldwin as Bennett in 8H TONIGHT……
@@michaelwalterselevatorsrob5009 What, will he shoot someone again?
You could tell Mr. Bennett was enjoying the heck out of this bit---he looked genuinely tickled to be there ❤ RIP
"Tickled". How old are you.
I love when celebrities show up when someone is impersonating them, and it's even better when they're having fun with it.
Like Dionne Warwick.
Especially when they nail the person like Baldwin did with Tony Bennett. Excellent! And hilarious!
very good sports
It’s priceless.
Not many real stars can ‘get it’ and not ‘take themselves so seriously’ like Tony did here.. This is immortal..
So few likes to such a great video and an apic moment.
There was Barry Gibb appearing on the Barry Gibb Talk Show, dressed up as the parody of himself.
Mick Jagger did several GREAT Parodies of himself on SNL though
@@rhythmfield There was one time when Mick was Keith Richards.
That Anthony Benedetto cat, man, he's going places, let me tell you
“Her toenails looked like a lined up row of barbecued Fritos...”
OMG
"You can't take that away from me... is under 3 ounces" that shit kill me 😂😂😂
I crack up every time I watch this. Every time. Doesn't matter how many times I've seen it.
RIP Mr. Bennett.
and RIP Mr Anthony Benedetto
@@charleybarley914 and Phony Bennett
From the time I was a little kid, Tony Bennett was a singer I knew of, because when I was a little kid my dad used to play his records a lot and I would hear him singing. And when he'd be on a tv show at night, we;d watch. RIP Mr. Tony Bennett. Condolences to his family, friends and other fans who like me, enjoyed seeing and hearing him.
Man, Tony Bennett is a national treasure. And Alec, man, he's just AMAZING.
He was one of the absolute great ones! Never met him although I wish I did, but I loved that man. He was there during civil rights battles and stood with us! Thank you, Mr. Tony Bennett! A wonderful soul!
Forgot about that - THANKS for the reminder! YASS! 🤩
His joy here is infectious, and his comedic timing is impressive.
His turnaround from intense drug addiction is even more impressive, and his marriage to a fan more than half his age has been proven to less salacious than sweet. (He apparently refused her proposal until she was 40 so it wouldn’t look so weird.) She also was intensely devoted to him during his end days.
So they're calling Tony Bennett by his real name then. Good one.
I love how he laughs when he says his stage name is "Phony Bennett".
that set up is what makes the skit funny,
Oh my God!! That was *beautiful*!! I've never seen this before, what a treat!
I love you Tony Bennett, God bless you soul!
Tony Bennett announced today under doctor's recommendations that he should no longer perform for health reasons. He's suffering from Alzheimer's. I watched for years how cruel this disease is and how it can slowly take away a life with my mother. But this skit here also shows you that Tony knew he was larger than life and also humble enough to make fun of himself. My mother was diagnosed at 67. If nothing else is good about this thank god he made it to 95 before his diagnosis. A legend.
Tony really threw Alec with that nose job line ...classic
Had to come back to this today. R.I.P. Tony
Never get tired of this .. an instant "pick you up" if you are in need of some warm hearted humor .. and humanity .. For Tony fans its great to see how Baldwin has him down .. not just the voice, the nose and his manner of speech, but also the way he holds the mic, and Tony's signature 'self hug' .. (His signal to his millions of fans over the years that he truly appreciates and loves them) .. I read elsewhere that for Baldwin, it was a thrill to do this .. Which tells you a lot about him .. And of course, so fun to see Tony "enjoy the heck out it" .. and barely able to control himself with "Phony Bennett"" .. Oh my gosh .. the Best!!
Alec Baldwin is just simply amazing, Tony couldn't stop smiling and bursted out laughing a lot LOL
Ha Ran Jung Me too ha ha so funny. Bennett is an amazing good sport and Baldwin so clever.
@@1970brenz Tony is also a man with a sincere, big heart.
Tony is great Alec is messed up
@@TheBigMan22111 Alec sucks as a human but he does have a lot of talent.
snl having dionne warwick on is the only thing that compares to this.
I LOVE things that are great..
That line alone is hysterical.
I know, I ALWAYS howl w/ laffter @ it! lol - on the Maya R. Liza SNL Tony Bennett show, too. LMAO!
Had to come back to this on this day. RIP Mr. Bennett!
R.I.P To A Great Singer Tony Bennett, Hard To Believe He's Gone 😢
RIP Tony. A class act!
Alec is brilliant, Tony is a legend, and a great sport!
This is a hilarious sketch! I loved seeing Tony laugh at such a great impression and so many well-written jokes!
RIP Tony - What a great, great, great guy
God Bless Maestro Bennett and Mr. Baldwin: This skit is one of SNL's best in my view.
Two Geniuses having a blast. Made me laugh out loud like it did when I saw it live. Magnificent. A testament to humanity. I cannot oversell this. Spot effing on.
Just going down memory lane watching all the Tony Bennett vids out there and I forgot about this one. He was great in the skit and a great sport to play along. The best parts were his Phony Bennett stage name and when he turned to the camera for the fake ad plug. One of the best entertainers ever. RIP Mr. Bennett.
Alec is spot on here as he usual is with his characters.
One of THE classic SNL skits.
Alec doesn't do a whole lot of characters, but the ones he does do are perfect.
He does Robert DeNiro, Donald Trump, and my personal favorite...Charles Nelson Reilly.
I think he's amazing. Very versatile. His Tony Bennett was spot on. Love the way he did the hip, jazz way of talking Bennett has. 'I dig it too'. 😎
@@speaktruth4336 NGYAAAAAAAAaaaaaa....
Tony was such a sport about this. A great great sport.
Alec's impression of Benoit is just Great, Great man
I met Tony Bennett once in San Francisco at Borders Books. I was in the music/CD section looking at a book. The place was empty, but I then sensed someone standing behind me,
so I turned around and there he was. I said are you Tony Bennett and he said yes I am and shook my hand. He told me he was just visiting some friends in town. Then some people recognized him
and stared asking him to sign CD's for them etc. and I went back to reading. A couple minutes later he comes back to me to talk about music!!! I couldn't believe it. What a nine man to take the time to chat with me! RIP Sir.
MAN !!!!!!! SOOO wistfully jealous, here ... WHAT AN HONOR and Thrill. RIP, Tony, you WONDERFUL man! 💓
@@virghammer1 I actually forgot an important part of the story. I play drums, and knew of the drummer playing in his trio because I had an instructional video by the drummer. A not really well known guy. So I quickly asked if this drummer was still in his trio. Well, his eyes lit up when I asked, so thats why he spent some time of course talking about music and things with me I think! I was not just some guy asking for an autograph. And yeah, I feel honored.
on the one occasion that I met him he sparkled when he smiled at me. a verve and a vibe I will never forget. now that he is diagnosed with dementia that memory, and this bit, are even more precious to me. tattisimo auguri, Senore Bennedetto.
A.B. is an amazing talent and who doesn't love Mr. Tony Bennett! Best skit ever 😆😊
@ 5:26 While holding the bottle of Lamisil, Tony turns and looks at the camera! HILARIOUS!
ALEC'S impression was so good, that they seemed and acted like father and son...
As a kid growing up in Astoria, I used to tell myself I needed a plan to escape and new I couldn’t sing like Tony Bennett. I finally made it out of there, and years later had the pleasure of meeting Mister Bennett after a show at the back door of a concert hall. He was as nice as he seems here in this video.
I am very proud of the fact that he is from Astoria, and never forgets his roots. I have seen him in concert many times over the years and he is simply amazing. Still going strong at almost 90.
That is so terrific, Mr. Cabinero ! Real wistfully jealous here, that you got to meet him. Lovely!
Tony B !!! ❤ We love you! PS. I would be proud of Astoria if I were you.
I know you are… Anyway, it’s so fancy-schmancy expensive now… Oh Lordy, lawd , lord …. 🍎 🇬🇷 🇮🇹 🇺🇸 💴 💰 🏙 🌆
That was amazing. Tony Bennett is the man. He was funny as Hell.
What a great sport Tony Bennett was in this sketch. He was a legendary performer. May he rest in peace🙏
Rest in love 🥰 Tony
Tears of laughter and tears of sadness. A great entertainer and a wonderful person! You will be missed. Than you Tony Bennett
5:26 when Tony turns to the camera to help plus the Lamasil toe fungus stiff! l LMAO!
Watching this today and crying. I miss him already. rest in peace.
This skit is what I first thought of when I heard the news today, July 21, 2023. RIP Tony Bennett!
Dude same… very first thing… “Phony Bennett!” 😂😂😂
By the way…. Get rid of that useless, pathetic, garbage cat and get yourself a dog. Only weak, really weird (in the worst way possible) people have cats.
He was made famous by a Black legend, Pearl Bailey, who he used to open for. Like many famous Italians of the time, Tony fought and supported The Civil Rights Act and marched with MLK and many others for voting rights. While never considering himself a jazz singer, he fought to change the racist laws and segregation his Black jazz singing partners faced in their travels. A true hero!
Indeed! It was the great Pearl who first booked Tony when he was working under the name of Joe Bari. It said so in his autobiography.
The commercial he does for that nail fungus product was hysterical 🤣🤣
Tony is the greatest. He's one of the last from the Golden Age of Entertainment.
This is many reasons why Tony Bennett could connect with so many generations. One of kind! We'll miss yah Tony🎙🎶
I love Tony Bennett. I even love Phony Bennett!
One of my all-time favorite SNL skits… Just great!!! 🎤❤️😆📺
One of the BEST SNL skits ever--truly.
Thank you.
There's a few frequent SNL hosts that do way better characters than many of the SNL cast members. Baldwin is one of them.
Last of the great entertainers. Rest in Peace.
I can't tell who had more fun, Tony or Alec. This is SNL GOLD!
R.I.P. Tony. Thank you for all the great songs and music.
Not just a single great...but it was really, really great, great stuff
The Lamisil commercial was hilarious , especially when he said her toenails looked like a row of barbacued fritos
RIP Tony "Phony" Bennett. You were a great, great entertainer. Catch ya on the flip!
Had to revisit this one with him on my mind. This is, and always has been one of my all-time favorite sketches. Not only those BARBECUED FRITOS, but Tony's cracking up with the rest of us at "Phony Bennett." Great sport, talented man.
This is a beautiful skit.
Truly....
by far the best thing Baldwin has ever done...spot on. Nice touch using Tony's real name as his character name too.. and RIP to the great Mr B. Last of the greats of the Greatest Generation. He truly was "great"...
His retarded Trump was better.it's
This skit was two halves of a hoot!
I don't know how Baldwin did NOT break character during this one!
I would've been crying trying to keep this skit going
I'm trying to think of a time he EVER broke character!🤔
Tony Bennett just laughing at all the jokes shamelessly.
RIP Mr. Benedito. A member of the Greatese Generation and WWII Vet. Salute!
You can tell Tony’s been at Showbiz forever. Has a skit done entirely around him, by a legendary actor who’s honed his chops on nailing the impersonation. At the end of the sketch, after Alec whispers in his ear all the gushing gratitude he could muster, instead of basking in the momentary applause, and join his protege in finishing the sketch by hamming it up a few seconds more, Tony turns to the crew off stage, looking to pass off the microphone and get on with his evening.
aww, this was so adorable. why doesn't it have more views and likes? I loved it. 🥰
I love Tony so much. He is kind, generous and so talented. That SNL show was a classic.
This was just a treat...made me laugh so hard. Really needed it too. God bless them both. 👍
And it's Tony Bennett on the SNL Train! He's calls this one, "I Love Things That Are Great!!"
Mr. Bennett enjoyed this immensely. Me too, "PUDDLE OF MUDD!" especially.
Tony is such an actor! It’s so cool.
Loved Tony beyond words and will miss his presence. This was brilliant, and incredibly funny. It shows Tony's stellar ability as a performer and Alec was great.
So wonderful to see him - and so sad that he's gone. RIP Mr. Bennett.
I can watch this skit endless times. Hilarious!
Rip tony bennet you were really great
There're some real beautiful moments on this show
This should have way more views. A real treasure !
"I love things that are great!"
Alec is freakin hilarious!!! Mr. Bennett took it so beautifully. Phony Bennett! lmfao!
That must've been a rare treat to get introduced by his real name.
Tony Bennett might be the best guest of all time
Mr Bennett had the most beautiful smile - it made his eyes sparkle and his entire face light up. 💐💞🥲
RIP Tony! Had to watch this today!
I am by no means and Alec Baldwin fan. But he is a very good actor. And his imitation of Tony Bennett brings tears to my eyes. I cannot stop laughing. Tony Bennett is such a great sport.Nice to see there's still some comedy on Saturday Night Live
I like Tony's ad-lib to Alec about the nose 3:29
Let me guess: Trump supporter?
@@christheghostwriter ????
So why not just stick with the second part? If you can’t say something nice…
This skit was just great great great!
Thank you, Tony!
🙏🌷♥️🎵
two American treasures here. Just funny as hell!
This brings tears to my eyes. RIP Anthony Dominic Benedetto. ❤😢❤ You brought joy to the world!
He’s a nice fella, works in the locksmith trade.
That nose is a work of art
This is such a wonderful comedy bit.
I'm older, so truly knee-slapping on multiple levels.
This is one of SNL's best sketches, and my LI brother, A.Baldwin, nailed it!
This is a gem.
