What the hell? She's releasing a movie, a jazz record and a hyper pop remix album all within a few months of each other, while also honoring Tony for being the great jazz legend that he is and raising awareness for Alzheimer's and the power of music. Truly, tell me any artist who does it like her. She's a real gem. Her kindness and talent are really inspirational.

Same my Grandmother has Alzheimer's too. It's amazing to see how people with Alzheimer's light up with music, dance, laughter, and play with their grandchildren. In my Grandmother's decline with Alzheimer's I'm meeting a more playful side of her. She's always been so prim and proper but it's starting to go. With her memory her inhibitions and self doubt are also fleeing.

Thank you, Mr. Bennett. ❤️🤍💙 Tony has always been a showstopper including his curtain call performance. Such a bittersweet moment in music history, saying farewell to the great Tony Bennett on the big stage. ✨🌟✨ A lovely tribute, from a special Lady. A blazing star of beauty, grace and talent.

She is so right. My mother was diagnosed with late-stage ALZ at 81, following the loss of her husband of 54 years. Over the past several years we sang to her a favorite lullaby 'hush little baby' over and over again and she would always smile and bob her head and ask us to sing it again. When she passed we were playing Al Green's 'Still in Love with You' and she was smiling.

It's been fascinating to watch her go from her early fame as a rock/pop star with all kinds of quirky, "outrageous" stuff (like the meat dress) to a mature, world class vocalist who, while still true to her roots, now owns the Great American Songbook. Given that and her acting career, Gaga has barely scratched the surface of what she can and will accomplish as the years go by.
