this era is criminally underrated
To each mind his own music. The problem: society gets dumber and dumber. Music reflects that. It is a mirror of people's mind.
Absolutely!
Wait do you mean this era of music or this era of Lady Gaga's career? For you'd be right in both cases haha
@@rjr6912 I like Lady Gaga and she can belt it out, but it's hard to tell real 'raw' talent anymore with all of the equipment available. I was talking about that jazz era. Awesome music..it makes my feet move! Lol
Never underrated on that era
This is 40s to 50s era
I seriously think Lady Gaga is one of the few artists that can pull off any music genre.
+Clarissa Cota I think you're right.
i stand corrected. another artist, christina aguilara has some great pipes.
Clarissa Cota me too! She is just very talented she knows how to sing. She was trained well. She had beautiful vowels. It’s no spread or anything. Saw her in concert and it was amazing
glory saenz Christina doesn't have the technique to pull of opera music
Exactly. She goes from doing her own pop sort of stuff to jazz and then heavy metal and pulls them all off! Very few could do that shows how talented she actually is
Lady Gaga has an incredible jazz voice...that genre of music really showcases her vocal quality and range. And Tony Bennett...well, he's Tony Bennett...nuff said!
I've never been keen on Lady Gaga, but she is absolutely BRILLIANT here! And this is just the way this song should be played. And sung!
I agree. Totally..
She's a jazz singer first, before she got famous
Oh cool didn't know that o.o
Everyone has their 'Lady Gaga is actually amazing' moment - welcome :D
Valerie Heatley DEFINITELY. She's BRILLIANT. Her voice is........ 👌👌👌👌👌💋
Tony and Gaga together are literally magic!
Magic isn't real
XD
+axl santos ignorant
axl santos I'll pretend your comment isn't real. :)
+Joel Garcia no tg
Oh Wow I think Amy and tony was better
I think many people are missing what she is doing here. She's not just changing her singing style, she's showing what a great musician she is. Playing jazz is like immersing yourself in the richest most fertile soil of musicianship there is. And she's got the chops along with her amazing voice.
This kind of jazz is one of the hardest style of music you can practice IMO. It's really not just a case of changing your style of something, you need to train hard to get on THAT level
You couldn´t be more wrong. First of all she´s not playing shit. The arragement was like a pretty basic form of actual jazz, I´m assuming that was because she clearly cannot improvise or actually got that swing. Her voice here is very straight forward. No playing scales, no playing with the harmony, its an insult to Ella Fitzgerald. And the saddest thing of this, the video is edited lmao.. which means she couldn´t even do this in one take. I really don´t know why choosing such a good yet hard to perform song. Maybe because her fanbase don´t know shit about jazz and they would just look at her like a really talented artist. And Tony, what can I say about him, he´s amazing but this is not his style at all. Just a poor decision. You should watch Ella singing this with Duke Ellington band. They way she sings those "Do what" is so powerful, expressive and playful.
I am not gonna lie. I love how old school Lady Gaga sounds. I could swear she was born several decades ago and this is was played in the fifties.
I am almost 18 years old and by Gaga I introduced myself into jazz, and I have to say that is so magical. No matter if you are 56, 75 or 10, it's sex for the ears.
+Mario Labeouf - Amen, brah!
Amen
10 year olds shouldn't be having sex.
+Andrew Oram especially in their ears
+Kayleigh McCarthy 😂😂
That trumpet solo is CLEAN, such beautiful tone
AND the sax, almost thought it was a clarinet at the beginning with how nice their sound is
Bro wtf I'm reading your comment 1 second after thinking that exact same thing, my mind is blown rn 😂 to the part where I was thinking "nice clarinet! Oh wait this is a sax!"
@@Methylglyoxalso we all here rn 😭
This is the stuff that's timeless. In 50 years, no one will remember one direction, but this jazz standard is pure classic Americana.
In 50 years I would remember One Direction!!!
+Valerie Rapson Me too.
No one'll be covering !D, for sure.
HAHAHAHAHAHA so funny😑😑😑
Too true, their music is garbage.
I love her passion and energy.
Also, Tony keeps looking at her lol
Look, I love jazz and I love what Tony and Gaga have done with this album but a lot of you snobby pricks in the comments need to learn that "real music" is ALL music. It's subjective. I may not enjoy Dubstep in the least but to others it's golden. Music is music. Stop being so elitist and enjoy what you enjoy and let others do the same.
Thank you.
But we can all agree that Young Money songs aren't real music right?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Amen
🙌🙌
And I quote: "Do wa do wa do wa do wa do wa, do wa do wa Tony, Gaga.."
It's great!
+Coveskipper My favorite part.
She looks so cute with that wig!
I'm straight and i can affirm to you that everytime she appears with short hair I fall in LOVE with her
I mean in LOOOOOVE
Adam Martin so, was the "I'm straight" really necessary :DD
xXanderliciousx
ofc let's talk honestly bc a gay man won't know if a woman is really hot or just cute so as for straight man ;)
Adam Martin ... are you serious?! re-read what u just posted and think about it :D
Just because a guy is gay doesn't mean he sees women as random blank pages. A gay man is really capable of detecting a sexual aura on a woman. Gay men appreciate hot women just as much as straight guys do. Gay men just don't want to destroy the beauty by fucking her xD
xXanderliciousx
no bb you are wrong i know some gay persons and what you did is so wrong because it seems you talked about bisexual people not gay ones
I love watching the fun dynamic between these two. Lady Gaga singing and being very animated and Tony just chillin singing amazing, hand in pocket, effortless and yet flawless, like a badass. I love it!
Lady Gaga perfectly channels the sound of the late 30's in this song. Anybody with some talent can sing well, but to sing well and with nuances that match the era of the song you're singing is another level. She really is brilliant at her art.
Welcome to the official Cheek To Cheek era everybody! ☺👏👏🎺🎷🎧
Yassssssss
Thank you Gaga and Tony Bennett for bring big band, traditional pop and jazz to a whole new generation! Lady Gaga is a gem, she has outstanding vocals!
"doowahdoowahdoowahdoowahTONYANDGAGA"
How can anyone not like this album? They must have hearing loss or just cannot handle hearing GREAT music! Damn Bennett has still got it at his age and her voice is AMAZING as ALWAYS. Such Talent We are Lucky to Enjoy!
she's so passionate about music you can really feel it, no matter the type of music she's singing. she can make me love any music style
I love that lady Gaga is branching out from the usual pop that she does! Her other pop stuff is still amazing, but the fact that she has been brave enough to break out of the pop scene and try some jazz just shows how talented she is! I absolutely love this ❤️
Lady Gaga è come il vino,più passa il tempo più diventa brava. Su Tony Bennet ogni commento è superfluo.
The Lady is at her best and she looks great. Tony's bemused expression when he looks her way is priceless.
So beautiful 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Wait what where the replies

de acuerdo contigo me encanta sin duda el mejor disco de Lady gaga
In the original music it's " it dont mean a thing if you ain't got that swing" ^^
RIP Tony. Thank you for everything you did to Gaga. You saved her! We always love you.

You can tell how much they both love the song.
This is the mark of a truly versatile artist. Everyone saying, 'aah bring back the Fame Monster era!!'... surely you should be rejoicing that your favourite pop star has other talents that lie in other genres of music?? This is one passionate, enthusiastic LADY!!
I love watching her sing these songs. She's so animated and full of emotion. You just want to give her a hug. Love it.
lady gaga is natural to the jazz!!!
Jazz is deep and introspective...and just a little unstable! Like anything interesting in this life!!! With the highest accolades, I never knew Gaga was so talented. She is so flamboyant....I had truly never heard her perform before!!! ! Tony Bennett is awesome!!! Bravissimo!!!
@@robinpower6954 welcome then! Be more than free to listen to some other alike performances such as Bang Bang, or Lady is a Tramp.
the woman is astounding now that she's found Jazz. Simply astounding!
this song is amazing. I`m having an eargasm.
That's now a corny cliche (and was corny even before it was a cliche). You'll have to think of something better than that!
REST IN PEACE TONY BENNETT
Dude that ride cymbal's tone is majestic. Such class.
She's an amazing jazz singer. Love this album Cheek To Cheek, it's pure jazz and talent.
People that insult Tony Bennett saying he isn't talented enough to work with her. Please. He's been famous since before she was born. Pull your judgemental heads out of your asses. They are a lovely collaboration.
RIP Tony Bennett 🕊️
Cheek To Cheek ERA
They are simply perfect together. I've always had a love for this kind of music, there certainly isn't enough of it being made any more.
I also love that a modern artist like Lady Gaga is delving into this wonderful genre, and introducing it to her fans.
Well done to both of them. To Tony for continuing to make such wonderful music after all these years, and to Lady Gaga for donating her incredible vocals and making a collaboration with one of the biggest names in Jazz music.
Welcome to the cheek to cheek era..
Yes Welcome
😭😭😭😭😭
King Tony and another first Lady of swing !!!
🌟🎵🌈🎵🌟
Rest in peace Tony, damn what a genius
Amazing! Will everyone just forget what she is wearing ( I looked at comments further down this page!) in fact ALWAYS just forget what Gaga is wearing then you might all see how great she is!One day the whole world will come to it's senses & see how great she is!
It Don't Mean A Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing
I'll miss Tony 🤧😭❤️🎶
Beautiful Tony Bennet singing with Lady Gaga .
Lady Gaga is once in a generation talent. Janice Joplin. Stevie Nicks. Lady Gaga. She is awesome.
Agreed, but a lot of people may not have known that until she released this stuff with Bennett. A true jazz singer.
And Amy of course. What a waste. RIP.
@@larsclausen7026 don't speak about the dead like that.
All generational talents are male bro. Be real.
@@seetheanimal5867 Whitney Houston. Aretha Franklin. Ella Fitzgerald.
He’s like....can we bottle up some of that energy?? Haha
The highest level of musical art
Fitzgerald to Gaga. Who will sing this masterpiece in the future?
"That's jazz" well said Tony 👌
They really burned on this. The whole band. Great solos, great vocals and great harmony. L. Gaga is really, really enjoying herself (and Tony is enjoying her) and you can see how she is inside the music and the music is inside of her when the solos are going on.
Goodness Mrs Gaga, you are excellent!
this is just shows that she is a true artist, going against mainstream music and making it amazing
Just saw some comments about how Gaga needs to stop singing jazz and that she needs to go back to pop cause they don't like jazz. I'm 18 years old and to be honest I was never really listening jazz that much but when I heard Cheek To Cheek I really fell in love with this type of music. This album is amazing and shows Gaga's amazing vocals and shows that she can sing anything she wants and not only pop music. That's true talent. Not every pop singer can sing jazz. You are not a true little monster if you are saying how she needs to stop making this 'shit'. I don't say you need to love it but you shoud at least support what she is doing. She didn't forgett about pop music cause she is already working on her next pop album but CTC was a nice touch in her career especially cause it's with a legend Tony Bennett. So stop being bitchy about this and enjoy this amazing music and wait for the Grammys 2015 ;)
I'm 13 years old and I think this is the best song I heard by her.
The only issue I have with this is that there was a Trumpet and a Sax player blowing MEAN solos over this, and they never showed them ONCE. DURING THE SOLOS. Please.... I get that it's Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett, but give some credit to the other musicians that did this as well, especially while they're being featured! All we see were the two screwing around at the mics; which is fine, if NOTHING ELSE IS HAPPENING. Who are those musicians? Why are they not allowed face time for their contributions to this?
Vevo REALLY needs to learn how to respect EVERYONE involved in the music making process, not just the pretty faces.
Bo Monkey did I miss that or is that a seperate video?
+Samuel Fister It's a shame, but Lady Gaga always introduces them during their live performances at least.
+Samuel Fister The guys on this tune are Tony's pals from the halls of jazz greatness. Don't know their names, but I should. And I agree with you completely that all the musicians should get noticed and acknowledged. Back in the day (I'm old) when there were album covers, there were listings of who the musicians were in the band. On jazz stations, at least some I listen to, and I think as a rule, the host will tell you about the session and who is playing on it. BTW, watch The Wrecking Crew if you want to find out about the real musicians behind so much music over the last 50 years it will blow your mind. Carol Kaye. Remember that name.
+Coveskipper I know what I'M doing after work today! :D
I used to host a jazz show at my college radio station and I always made it a point to recognize everyone on the recordings. I understand we live in a "solo megastar" age, and I've played my fair share of shows where I get zero recognition (but still got a paycheck, so be grateful for that, right?), but it still feels off when I hear a musician playing in a jazz tune and don't get a chance to know who it is. That could have been Sonny Rollins for all I know.
+therealbologna2 I know it's totally not on her, she just did her thing when the cameras came on. She and Bennet NAILED this.
simply another beautiful verison of this beautiful song
Jazz Legend Toni Bennet singing with my favourite artist Lady Gaga ❤️👌
This is just delightful.
No a fan of gaga but this is absolutely amazing I have to say her voice is amazing, that's jazz *.* hope she makes more jazz pieces
We watched this for music class today :)
Same
Gaga and Mr. Tony Benneth is So Beyond Fabolous Amazing 😻😻😻😘💞💖
DUA DUA DUAAAA TONY GAGAAAAAA
Honestly, I like her voice and I like this song. The original is, admittedly, better, but that's because it's Ella. She doesn't sound like a swing singer, and does sing modern pop better, but I do like this. You all need to stop bashing others' taste in music. If you don't like it, a simple click of the dislike button will do.
Annette Hasnas The original is by Duke Ellington. Cretin.
+Chris Donaldson It was composed by Duke Ellington, sure. But I was pretty obviously referring to the singing.
+Chris Donaldson nice.... You shouldn't show your ignorance by apparently not realizing she was talking about Ella Fitzgerald.
She shouldn't show her illiteracy by calling it 'the original' when the song in question was not 'the original'. Cretin. Cretins everywhere.
It don't mean a thing If it ain't got that swing do ah do ah do ah do ah
Rest in Peace, Great Lord ♥️
Her voice is so strong and beautiful and unique, she can carry jazz very well
Dear Jazz, thank you for opening the minds and ears of the people that didn't know you till now.
Dear Gaga and Bennett, thank you for being a wonderful bridge between two different kinds of audience
I don't think it really matters if you like or don't like either Gaga's pop songs or classic swing charts. I just respect her talent and musical spectrum. In both her pop performances and in her swing covers there are few artists I've seen put so much passion and energy in their music as her.
I love tony & Gaga ❤️
my teacher had this on in class and no joke, I started to cry and shake she's so beautiful
Ok whos watching this at 2024 😅
Look how happy they are surrounded by this vibe, I envy them so much :)
Bro gaga movin like CRAZY
Never enjoyed her GAGA pop stuff. But this? This is golden. You go, Stephanie. Great stuff.
I love that she made a jazz album! she is so vocally talented, its an amazing fit for her. And she chose to work with a legend. So much respect for this woman.
Lady gaga is a rare exception in todays music society
Not alot of ppl have the vocal capabilities she has
Tony Gaga 💖
She is PHENOMINAL! XOX
one of my top favorite song from cheek to cheek!!!
Their voices are so fantastic together. I really like how lady gaga gets into the music and singing. She's a good jazz singer if you ask me. 😄😃
Rest in peace 🕊
this song, lady gaga's outfit and her makeup, giving off a strong harley quinn vibe. also this song somehow reminds me of that johnny charisma and batman part of the batman AK
this is truly stunning, I love jazz. People my age really don't have an original taste of music,and it saddens me. How on earth could you hate on this? If you want crappy pop music,take a look at Katy Perry's channel. Open your eyes and look at all those *chickens* different genres of music. Ugh.
Amen! Gaga is wonderful, and jazz is wonderful. Im glad to be part of a small group in society that still has tastes in music!
Wow that's really surprising. Huge amount of respects to Lady Gaga
blast this song on my grandpas house, he and his wife got up and started dancing out of nowhere, they must of listen to this kind of music when they were young.
Gaga is for real here. Tony is Tony. It's strange that they met this way: soul-mates don't always come together with such an age difference!
LEGEND
I love the way she enjoys the song!
素晴らしい！トニーベネットもガガも素敵！
Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga certainly bring the SWING and the ZING when they SING together!
This is better than pop
I am so proud of her. I love this music and I can see she loves it and she is totaly herself.
rip tony bennett
Tony still has it at 137!
I am not a fan of Gaga’s newer pop music but this is just incredible. I had no idea of this side of her.
She's been doing Jazz with him since 2011 and has albums with him.
@@CorsetdollxI’m incredibly impressed I knew she was talented but I didn’t know she was so versatile. This is so amazing to me. I feel like she does this genre better than pop!
One thing I can credit Lady Gaga on is she is a very versatile artist. She can tap into all forms of music and still be the best at what she does. Jazz, pop, rock or alternative. Truly a magnificent mother indeed. I love the fact she's branching out her style.
Anytime they come together it's absolutely beautiful and true bliss
Tony Bennett is absolutely a living musical legend. And much love to Lady Gaga. Two beautiful souls.
