Tony Bennett was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease in 2016; while he has had losses and advancement in his disease process, he rises to the occasion with music.

Here is a new video of him singing with Lady Gaga,"I Get A Kick Out Of You."  Sweet and poignant.

    If I'm not mistaken, I read where his wife said he has a very difficult time talking (finding words), but when he sings, he doesn't miss a word. That's just mind boggling. It's amazing what music can do.

    Jo, I remember you saying how good Lady Gaga was when she sang that kind of music. I fully agree. I don't think I ever heard her sing her usual stuff, but she really does have a very nice voice. Thank you for the link.
