I like how KD smiles after Tony sings the first lines. It's like she was saying, "That is tasty. Get ready bec i'm gonna knock you off your feet." This is truly a gorgeous cover. Easily one of the top 3 duets Tony performed, one that gives me goosebumps always. You will be missed Tony.
If you ever get a chance to see her in concert, Carlos, please don't hesitate. Her face lights up when she sings (and she's fairly hilarious when interacting with the audience).
My grandfather passed a year ago. We used to listen to this among other songs in his car. Thank you for providing this song, I’m sure if he was here we’d be listening to it together. :)
Maybe, but what if KD asked him to do a duet with her, what an honor for him…..her voice is pure magic! And her rendition of Hallelujah cannot be topped, not now or ever.
Canada has produced so many wonderful talents, this being one more. Tony & K. D. Lang have a whole album of duets certainly one of the best. History will never forget to recognize these two being wonderful duets! ♥️♥️♥️
I think we don’t hear much from K.D. Lang is that she doesn’t “politic”. She knows she’s talented but she doesn’t have the patience for the industry’s bullshit. I admire her so much. Thanks for sharing your beautiful gift with us. We are blessed.
Being a Canadian Vegan Lesbian, country stations in the US never played her. But she has worked with Roy Orbison, Loretta Lynn and more. She sang a song called “Shadowland” that was written for Patsy Cline, and produced with Patsy’s team. She is a treasure
K d lang is a treasure and with Tony’s passing today she must be drinking a toast to the ability to have collaborated with him. The power of music transcends genres and biases God bless that power tonight 👍❤️🙏
I performed as a dancer at the Cal-Neva Lodge Lake Tahoe. one of our most beautiful routines was set to the song "Blue Velvet" we walked up to the stage...six young beautiful girls in blue velvet sarongs. K.D. and Tony Bennett do bring back "Blue Velvet" through my tears. Theresa Stevens
KD is such a talent.Miss her singing.Such a strong voice.As with Tony she NEVER overwhelm another singer like Roy Orbison. Respect for another.Wonderful
I had the privilege to see Tony and KD at radio city music hall - they did the most amazing thing to show the acoustics of radio city - they killed the mics and asked for everyone’s silence and sang - one of the most beautiful experiences ever! The best concert of these two talented souls!!! A great combination!
Tony Bennet's voice may have changed and not be as strong as it once was, but he knows how to use what he has. That is why he is one of the greatest singers of all time. The pathos he gives to this song is absolutely heartbreaking.
KD Lang makes love to every note she expresses through her caressing voice. It is not just singing songs. She expresses emotions. A rare talent, and to have her sharing beautiful melodies with the legendary Tony Bennett is a gift.
This was literally breathtaking - I almost hyperventilated at k.d.'s first few notes. I'm reduced to a blubbering mess by the sheer beauty of this performance.
Awww Rob I am so glad to read this heartfelt and truthful sentiment-- i had a similar reaction simply meltdown response! Thank you!!!! I am smiling from ear to ear!!
Went to see her live with my sister in law and niece. It was a wonderful performance. There is simply no denying this woman's talent and to pair up with the incomparable Tony Bennett how lucky are we.
K.D.’s voice sounds like what I imagine the ladies of yesteryear singing in soul bars. She’s a perfect example of don’t judge a book by its cover. You would never expect her to have the magical voice.
Tony Bennett & K.D. Lang are 2 souls in harmony-one can see the love & respect they have for one another, & their voices------perfection . Bless them both.
Stunning duet by Mr. Bennett and kd Lang. 💞 Thank you Tony for all the years of your songs and entertainment. I was lucky that both my parents were big fans so grew up hearing his voice and whenever he was on tv they made sure to watch. His autograph was the only one my Mom ever sought out after attending one of his concerts and he was signing for a lot of people so she joined the lineup. RIP Tony and my thoughts are with his family and all who held him close in their hearts.
Now at 55 years young I can recall hearing Bennett singing as I woke to his music being played by my parents. Sincere gratitude to them for introducing real music to me, music with meaningful lyrics and wonderfully written music. I have never stopped enjoying Tony and his style is pure elegance and class. I first heard KD when I came out in my late teens. She draws you in with her smooth voice and passionate reactions to the music. She makes me feel it deep in my soul. Loved her then, love her more now. THIS IS TRULY MUSIC AT IT"S BEST!!
All the comments here are great! But (shhh, don't tell the others) yours is the best. Informed, informative, anecdotal yet concise -- summed up in so few words. Nice economy of style, as the editors used to say. Thanks for sharing, Julie Lara. Left a comment of my own this night; hope you enjoy!
Una canzone che riesce a toccare le corde del cuore❤meravigliosa...queste sono le canzoni eterne che non saranno mai dimenticate...per la loro bellezza..dolcezza...eleganza...❤
Possibly the best duet I've ever heard. The harmony is perfect, the passing back forth of phrases (and the phrasing) is brilliant. They're smooth as glass and rich as buttah. Just listen to them sing this and forget what they're wearing: it's a real masterpiece, IMO.
It is my understanding that he considers hers the greatest voice that he has ever sang with. Im so much still in her 'extraordinary thing, my summer fling' era. 'Ran on the Beach with Kennedy Flair...' I was there.
@@TheMichaelDStorey I didn't know that. Wow how KD must have felt when she heard that he had given her the highest compliment he could have. Let me tell you when he handed her the picture he had painted it just took my breath away. I would have melted into a puddle right then and there for that oh so special gift from that precious man. ;-)
KD and Ella Fitzgerald. The best of the best. And Tony is just fabulous! Saw him in one of his last concerts, he knocked it out of the park and then some. 💕
There's no one like Tony nor will there ever be. I've been a Tony fan since I could walk, when my family members used to play his records in our and our aunt's homes, and my late aunt in San Francisco will always be synonyous with Tony's "I Left My Heart in San Francisco." Lovely man, incredible singer, #1 class act.
Oh My God, Yes! NEVER saw a duet where they were so in sinc, beginnings, endings, lilts, glisses, such a compliment of each voice to the other, like they both took into account the age difference and adjusted for it, completely balanced. No "old singer warbely vibrato" for Tony, no "Hey, I'm out doin the old fart" vocal gymnastics by K.D. Really classy. So warmly appreciated.

She tones herself down not to overpower the older voice. Artistry and grace.
❤
This is what SHOULD be dominating our radio stations.
Kd Lang deserves more recognition than she's had so far. I simply love her voice.
Indubitably!
Give a listen to KD’s Ingenue CD…that will make you a believer in her awesome talent!
Her performance at 2010 Vancouver Olympics was breathtaking.
Hers was Tony's favorite voice.
k d lang's voice is blue velvet personified. Rest in peace Tony Bennett your song catalogue is unsurpassed excellence
Tony ended up with more duets than anyone in history
Indubitably!
my dad loved tony's voice & he also loved kd's. & that makes two of us! 👍😍
K.D. Has been my favorite female voice for 30 years. Looking forward to the next 30.
Same. Actually, 40 here. Heard her first in the early 80’s. I think she was still a teenager, in Alberta.
Yes‼️‼️‼️🎶🎶🎶
Over 30 now !
Mine too. I wrote to her years ago when I discovered her. She was gracious enough to reply. XX
Two kind and pure hearted souls with iconic voices. The world will be a little less beautiful without you, Tony.
un français d accord avec vous
Really😢
THE MOST underrated female singer💕
Agree
A true collaboration of two very talented artists. Missing him. Missing her in her retirement.💜💜
Missing both great artist
KD is SUCH an artist. Her renditions of many classics leaves me speechless.
KD and Tony B? Delicious❤❤❤
The meeting of these two voices resembles a cosmic confluence that occurs only once in eternity.
True ❤. So wonderful. Eternally
KD Lang's voice is sooo velvety blue...
K.D.’s voice is blue velvet.
There aren't words adequate to describe or celebrate this transcendental musical experience . . .
I like how KD smiles after Tony sings the first lines. It's like she was saying, "That is tasty. Get ready bec i'm gonna knock you off your feet." This is truly a gorgeous cover. Easily one of the top 3 duets Tony performed, one that gives me goosebumps always. You will be missed Tony.
If you ever get a chance to see her in concert, Carlos, please don't hesitate. Her face lights up when she sings (and she's fairly hilarious when interacting with the audience).
Amazing that Tony could sing so amazingly well as he aged. And K.D. Is only person who could match such velvet singing.
TWO EXCEPTIONAL ARTISTS FROM DIFFERENT ERAS, BUT WHAT A MATCH. THIS IS PRICELESS
She did Honky Tonk Angels with Brenda Lee, Kitty Wells & Loretta Lynn too.
My grandfather passed a year ago. We used to listen to this among other songs in his car. Thank you for providing this song, I’m sure if he was here we’d be listening to it together. :)
Imagine getting the call that Tony Bennett rates you so much he wants to do a duet with you......what an honour.
Maybe, but what if KD asked him to do a duet with her, what an honor for him…..her voice is pure magic! And her rendition of Hallelujah cannot be topped, not now or ever.
Oh my. She is so amazing. As I said in another post, if silk has a sound, it would be her voice.
You will love I’d Lang’s recreding of “Crying”. It’s incredible!
Yes, it’s terrific & her rendition of ‘Hallelujah’ at the opening ceremonies of the Olympics here in Canada - amazing
Canada has produced so many wonderful talents, this being one more. Tony & K. D. Lang have a whole album of duets certainly one of the best. History will never forget to recognize these two being wonderful duets! ♥️♥️♥️
I think we don’t hear much from K.D. Lang is that she doesn’t “politic”. She knows she’s talented but she doesn’t have the patience for the industry’s bullshit. I admire her so much. Thanks for sharing your beautiful gift with us. We are blessed.
Slow dancing to this song with someone you love....I wish!
She has such a beautiful timbre to her lower tones.
Wow, what a voice this lady has. Would you believe that I've never heard of KD Lang until now, Iam definitely now a fan. ❤❤❤
What!!!!, lol please search for her version of Crying at the 1990 tribute to Roy Orbison, honest to God, it will knock your socks off
Search for her singing "Hallelujah" it's beautiful!
Better late than never!😚
@@brightstarsunshine5301 I like her version better than anyone else's, it's amazing and heartfelt.
Being a Canadian Vegan Lesbian, country stations in the US never played her. But she has worked with Roy Orbison, Loretta Lynn and more. She sang a song called “Shadowland” that was written for Patsy Cline, and produced with Patsy’s team. She is a treasure
I have a feeling she could sing anyone off the stage-that's real talent.
Love it when Tony hands her one of his watercolors. ❤
Her voice! If you close her eyes you can picture a hollywood movie star from the golden era. Long flowing hair, a sexy ballgown.
K d lang is a treasure and with Tony’s passing today she must be drinking a toast to the ability to have collaborated with him. The power of music transcends genres and biases God bless that power tonight 👍❤️🙏
kd's voice is like velvet.
I just melt at the first Bluuue Velllllvet she sings. Perfection
@ Abraham Thacker ... Yes!! Blue Velvet!! ❣️🙏🏻😭 Great, great voice... Even she closes her eyes to focus... Just like Tony!! They give so much...
I performed as a dancer at the Cal-Neva Lodge Lake Tahoe. one of our most beautiful routines was set to the song "Blue Velvet" we walked up to the stage...six young beautiful girls in blue velvet sarongs. K.D. and Tony Bennett do bring back "Blue Velvet" through my tears.

Amoooooo esse duet
Like blue velvet? I totally Agree with you.
KD is such a talent.Miss her singing.Such a strong voice.As with Tony she NEVER overwhelm another singer like Roy Orbison. Respect for another.Wonderful
Wow.. this is a accidental find, and what a joy to my heart and soul... A great moment to be alive.
I had the privilege to see Tony and KD at radio city music hall - they did the most amazing thing to show the acoustics of radio city - they killed the mics and asked for everyone’s silence and sang - one of the most beautiful experiences ever! The best concert of these two talented souls!!! A great combination!
Her voice is blue velvet to my ears, lovely beautiful breath taking, bravo!
It doesn't get much better than this. Two class acts in perfect harmony. Pure joy from start to finish.
Tony Bennet's voice may have changed and not be as strong as it once was, but he knows how to use what he has. That is why he is one of the greatest singers of all time. The pathos he gives to this song is absolutely heartbreaking.
I honestly think combining Mr. Bennett and Ms. Lang was the work of a genius.
Bill Cherry I totally agree
Love the full album they recorded a few years earlier.
Fantastica emocionante as vozes unisonas de Tony Benetti e nova Cantora interpretação genial
absolutely!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely!
PHENOMENAL!! I loved it. Both are master class vocalist and together that song choice was beyond perfect. Sooo happy for them that they did it!!!
Love the scene Tony gives his own beautiful painting of flowers to her :)
I will always love KD Lang……her heart is as pure as her voice….. Thank you, KD ❤
Me too! First time I heard her voice - over 30 years ago ... I was hooked.
Sheer perfection, no other comes close, except for Ella Fitzgerald.
The way Mr. Benett smiles at Ms Lang makes my heart melt.
And no Hankey Pannkey, do we all remember that on
He knew they made magic together.
K.D.Lang is unbelievable.
KD's voice is like velvet. These 2 are just smooth.
KD Lang makes love to every note she expresses through her caressing voice. It is not just singing songs. She expresses emotions. A rare talent, and to have her sharing beautiful melodies with the legendary Tony Bennett is a gift.
yes, I love your words -- caressing is a wonderful description!
The both of them match very well indeed !
He recorded at least 3 duets with her, apart from their album together!
Wow they do sing perfectly together. What a treat. Very emotional song.
Gives me chills. Love this
My thought exactly. The way she treats each note. A treat to see. Tony Bennett, a rare gift!
So beautiful! She can do jazz, rock, and dirty rodeo. Love her!
This was literally breathtaking - I almost hyperventilated at k.d.'s first few notes. I'm reduced to a blubbering mess by the sheer beauty of this performance.
Awww Rob I am so glad to read this heartfelt and truthful sentiment-- i had a similar reaction simply meltdown response! Thank you!!!! I am smiling from ear to ear!!
kd's performance is gorgeous ... such deep-felt love and care for whom she sings! i love this ...
Same
MOST DEFINITELY!
Yep. The minute she starts.... what an amazing artist. Tony knows how to pick 'em.
I love K.D. Lang. Her voice is like a fine wine. Never knew this collaboration but wow! Their voices mesh together so lovely.
I miss Tony already....
And k d - where is she now?... What a lovely voice, for the ages.
Went to see her live with my sister in law and niece. It was a wonderful performance. There is simply no denying this woman's talent and to pair up with the incomparable Tony Bennett how lucky are we.
K.D.’s voice sounds like what I imagine the ladies of yesteryear singing in soul bars.
She’s a perfect example of don’t judge a book by its cover. You would never expect her to have the magical voice.
Because each is true to their craft, they come together beautifully. What awesome role models.
Her voice is velvet!
I have never heard it sung so beautifully
Just love Tony Bennet but KD Lang has the most wonderful voice. I could listen to her forever 😊😊😊
She respected him as he deserved. And he realized her enormous talent. Thank you. For this with us🩷🩷

A big boned girl from southern Alberta. Simply the best.

Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
WOW. Both of their silky voices are stunning by themselves but these harmonies bring tears to my eyes.
kd's voice is suburb, smooth and warm like a glass of brandy. What a vocal range she has as well. She and Tony sound beautiful together.
Through our tears. Through my tears, this makes me cry with the sheer beauty. How human beings do this--- gifts from above.
kd lang is amazing I have seen her live many times she blows my away with her distinctive voice
Yes indeed.
K. D Lang, the best female vocalist. Cool!

A great combination of voices…..❤️I loved them in a record of many years ago….. I miss you Tony
Two gifted artists sharing their gifts with us.
He's is an institution!! K.D. Lang's voice is indescribably beautiful!

Sounds like a warm cup of coffee
Amazing duet. Lang and Tony Bennett feed off each other.perfection in motion.they own this song until eternity.❤

Oh!, K.D., your voice is one of the greatest in the world!!! Tony Bennett's pretty good, too.
Tom 👏👏👏👏
🎵 Blue Velvet 🎶...My favorite, so wonderful. And the singers the Best of the Best ❤
Few can surpass this match of brilliant artists. At least they gave us showcases.

Truly timeless. They simply don't make them like Tony Bennett anymore.
I agree
I agree.
K d Lang blends in so beautifully with Tony's voice in this delightful duet of "Blue Velvet"!

She has magic in that voice. Tony, well, what can you say, Tony is immemorial.
Beautiful.
They harmonize perfectly just like "blue velvet".
A beautiful song so beautifully sung by two lovely people.
