Editor's note

Tony Bennett, the voice of San Francisco

The singer who kept the Great American Songbook alive for generations.

If you want one song, it's "I Left My Heart In San Francisco." For something that shows his later energy, try "The Lady Is a Tramp" with Lady Gaga.

For over seventy years, Bennett's smooth vocal style defined how people heard standards. "I Left My Heart In San Francisco" became more than a hit, it turned into a city anthem. He kept singing those songs long after others moved on, and collaborations like "The Lady Is a Tramp" with Lady Gaga showed he could make them feel new again.

He started singing professionally after World War II, with early hits like "Because of You." The 1965 album "The Shadow of Your Smile" came later, but he never stopped interpreting the Songbook. Even his recent work stayed true to that commitment.

His career took off with hits like "Because of You" and "Rags to Riches," but he's perhaps best known for "I Left My Heart In San Francisco," which became his signature song.
