Did you hear about Tony Bennett?

San Francisco honored him for releasing his famous song "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" 50 years ago!!

I love Tony Bennett.
He's a great, great singer and a great man.
And it's just great that San Francisco honored him this year.
I think it is a great song for a great city like San Francisco.
And it is great for them to do something great like this for a great singer.
It's a great song.
And I think it is just great.

One-two centuries?

Great is subjective, and it's sad that last year the great city of San Francisco passed on a great opportunity to honor the 75th anniversary of the great Jeanette MacDonald's singing that great song, 'San Francisco', in that Great movie, San Francisco.

That being said, Tony Bennett still has the chops. Great chops!
