Tony Bennett - Emily (Audio) 

I want to be somebody’s Emily ❤

I meet Tony Bennet at a Toco Bell in Los Angeles several years ago, and made it a point to personally thank him for his great impact on my family and I. He was with his daughter of about 10 years old. I am saddened by his passing and the loss.

Fair thee well, Tony Bennett

Tony Bennett's voice, the warm fire amidst a cold wintry night

One of my all time favorites of yours Mr. Bennett 🥰

Yes, so well contructed. J. Mandel

KING MASTER ICON

A by gone era of rich music

Marvelous

Tú música no morirá nunca

Man, that Emily must have been really something.

Look up 'sublime' in the dictionary, and it links you to right here...

'The Americanization of Emily', war drama starring James Garner, Julie Andrews, James Coburn and Melvin Douglas.

Emmily…

Johnny Mandel wrote this lovely melody for "The Americanization of Emily" and it grabbed me when I heard it in a theater. Johnny Mercer did his usual magic with the lyric. "Emily" was a favorite of two of the most lyrical players around, Paul Desmond and pianist Bill Evans, and both played it at every gig for the last decades of their lives. I like Tony's reading of the lyric.

No Emily wasn’t something it’s Tony that’s somethin’ when he’s no longer around that will be the end of an era the new world now belongs to j lo Beyoncé Katy Perry -will miss deeply this past golden era Sinatra , Dean Martin, Tony, vic Damone gotta quit will start crying …..

Tony Bennett left us today… RIP Tony Bennett. May this song still be heard in 100 years…

100 years from now, someone will be listening to this. 💓🎶

My favorite version. Dance among the stars Mr. Bennett

This and Stan Getz's and Bill Evans version of this song are the absolute classics of this beautiful song.

grand master!

crying...

I must have known your name before I ever dreamed you existed_and it was your name I could hear as I cried listening to this song: Dean Ashley

Tony Bennett’s first big hit, “Because of You,”was released in 1951, the year I was born. So it shouldn’t be surprising to know that, for me, Tony was always there during all of my growing up years and ending just recently with his recent passing. My mother and father, too, loved the music of Tony Bennett. So many of his songs were favorites of theirs. One song in particular suddenly stands out for me, however. “Emily” Tony record it in 1965. It was composed by the great Johnny Mandel, who also wrote this glorious arrangement of it for Tony. My mother’s name was Emmalu (1929-2018). My father sometimes called her “Emily Jane” in honor of her paternal grandmother, Emily Jane Shaw, who died in 1918 as a result of the flu epidemic that occurred at that time. Still, somehow her presence has remained with us, though we never met her. This great song, “Emily,” composed by Johnny Mandel, with sublime lyrics by Johnny Mercer, was special to my parents. They are both gone now, but hearing Tony Bennett song this song brings them back to me. This is Art Song. It doesn’t get better than this. Emily

Lovee his music!🤩

BEST VOICE

Just gorgeous, from the ground up.

Frank's version is nice but Tony's just has more depth it seems on these types of songs. Frank wasn't naturally as good of a singer as Tony but through his phrasing and breath control he developed the voice we all know and love today. Love both of them; Tony just owns this song.

Stephen Colbert’s band played this last night for Emily Blunt’s entrance. I knew it immediately & such a delight! Tony does it best :)

Great 👍🏻

Cute. I have a friend who picked this as a dance for her father daughter dance at their wedding. Very cute.

What is that, a deep sax or oboe in the mix? Man, this analog sound is glorious!

There's TONY and then there's everybody else. Period.

Brent Spiner sung this to me as he was giving me his autograph because my names Emily I love this song forever now

I would play this for my former girlfriend whose name is Emily, and she would cry, and smile and I would melt. How I miss her so.

Made for me .

For you Emily at Christmas 1992…..forever my favourite

The best

This album is one of the greatest of all time. Just sublime.

Too Beautiful! ❤

Please duo me with you

RIP Mr Johnny Mandel.......................................
