I love me some Tony Bennett. So when I heard the female vocalist on this track, I thought, damn, she is good. I was shocked to find out who it was.
She gets my respect.

They really seemed to be bored while making this video, too...

Unknown lady? It says Lady GAGA for god's sake. Are you trying to be funny? (you weren't). Gaga has a very good set of pipes. Anyone who has followed her for years knows that.
Didn't Cyndi Lauper also do this song with Frank Sinatra? She's another one who has a set of pipes.

She has a huge and impressive voice. I personally think it says something sad about the music business that she never got anywhere until she adopted the name and the persona that goes with it. Someone with a voice like that shouldn't need a gimmick.

Gaga is a very good vocalist, her theatrics just tend to take away from people noticing. I wish Bennett had asked Kelly Clarkson to perform with him. She did Big Band so well on American Idol and performed at a Tony Bennett tribute concert a few years ago doing an amazing version of his song Because of You (not to be confused with her song by the same name).

I heard it on internet radio first. They didn't say the names until afterwards. I immediately recognized TB, but not LGG. So I then checked out the video. Originally Posted by Louise
