How Do You Keep The Music Playing, with music by Michel LeGrande and lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman, was written in 1982. Tony Bennett first recorded the song in 1986 for The Art of Excellence and has performed it ever since.
This video was made of the Duets II session with Aretha Franklin. The single tear running down his cheek at the end of this song is an extraordinary moment that reminds us what he puts into every song he sings.
Craig Hochscheid says
One of Tony Bennett’s finest songs. He songs it from the depths of his heart!
