Legendary singer Tony Bennett’s made it another year around the sun, and a couple other famous voices are honoring him … with some of Tony’s own words.
The “I Left My Heart in San Fransisco” crooner turned 94 Monday, and got beautiful birthday shout-outs from Stevie Wonder and Sting … who took 2 of Tony’s other famous tunes and made them their own to pay tribute.
!
Wonder reminisced about his history with Bennett and how they sang together, but also praised him for his track record of standing up for equality for all and civil rights … even saying John Lewis is talking Tony up in heaven.
Stevie then put his own special touch on Tony’s “The Best is Yet to Come” with the help of a player piano … it’s awesome.
Sting also paid tribute by covering a Bennett classic — “The Way You Look Tonight” — and says Tony’s an inspiration who gives hope to everyone … that we can fix the world and make it a better place.
Can’t argue with that.
Happy birthday, Tony!!!
