Tony Bennett, US singer with seven-decade career, dies aged 96

Sad but what a life! He was one of the greatest singers of all time!

What an absolute legend, and an incredible life. RIP, Mr. Bennett.

Hell of a run, he was pretty active up until recently.

We all must go. This guy had a fulfilled life and his name, legacy and songs will live on forever. Legend.

Super nice guy and super talented. I used to go to the society of illustrators in NYC for their life drawing nights and he'd be there pretty often painting and drawing. Nice to everyone and a good artist!

Cant believe it ! He was a gem

Well, that sucks. At least it was a life well led.

He's the only guy that was on the same level as Sinatra

I thought he'd been dead for awhile, honestly. RIP
