    You can say about Gaga what you want, but she always delivers. Together with Tony this album is such a masterpiece. Her vocal ability is insane.

    Gaga-Bennett'in ilk is birligi. Gaga'nin da kendi standartlarinin altinda kaldigi ARTPOP doneminin ardindan kendini yeniledigi album olmustu Cheek to Cheek. Little Monsters diye tabir edilen Gaga fanlarinin haricinde yeni insanlar da bu albumle beraber Gaga'yi dinlemeye baslamislardi.

    The match between Bennett and Gaga winds up quite differently from the one between the master and k.d. lang in 2002. Those two created a more sober and mature affair. By contrast, the duets with Gaga give Bennett a whole new hold on youth.

    This is a clear example of renewal, Lady Gaga accompanies the great artist Tony Bennett and they manage to release one of the best Jazz albums in 2014, the only detail is that we see Tony again with covers and not even Gaga managed to make this album really acclaimed, with very good lyrical and even winning a Grammy, the album is considered one of the worst of both artists

    I put the score 7 because it is wonderful. I had never listened to jazz. For the fact that I met him thank you very much Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett for the fact that he still is embellished and added his jazz peppercorns.
    I love their joint song "Anythin Goes" and "Cheek to Cheek".
    But solo Gaga by "Bang-Band (My Baby Shot Me Down)" a shock!

    Even though I am a huge Lady Gaga fan (My main reason for buying the CD) I thought she would be out of her element with this. I was wrong. She sounds great and proves she is one of the most talented singers around today. Likewise with Tony Bennett, he still has not lost a thing and sounds as good as ever. This CD really took me by surprise on how much I love it.

    This album was a definite shock. I am a usual jazz listener, and I am used to most of these standards. It was simply to listen to their renditions, which were all great. The album flew by quite quickly, but that being said, some tracks were needlessly too short. Other than that, it was great. Saddened to see many people are only focusing on Gaga (negatively) and not Tony or the music.

    People, give Cheek To Cheek a chance!! It is just beautiful!    … Expand

    I cannot begin to say enough wonderful things about this album. First of all, Lady Gaga is a REVELATION. Her vocals are spot-on perfect, full of emotion and exquisite phrasing. Secondly. Tony Bennett's warm, weathered voice perfectly complements Gaga at every turn. Their chemistry is truly something special. Get the Grammys ready for "Cheek to Cheek!!" ; )

    Just a flawless album for a flawless duet, When The Queen of Pop met The King of Jazz. So much emotions came in you when you listen this pure melodious album. Thanks Gaga to give us every kind of music.

    Amazing album. Gaga is perfect. Her interpretation of "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye it's touching. And Madonna... You don't wanna hear. You don't want to know... But, sorry... You never record some tunes so fine in your whole career. Definetely, she is not you.

    Her vocals soar, they sound perfect together. She's very brave for taking a career detour like this, not often where a mainstream popstar will take a risk like this and expand into a new market. Go Gaga, Go Tony. Cant wait for the next album

    This album shows why Gaga is above her contemporaries in the talent department. She doesn't need a big production camp to shine. Only her voice. With Tony, there is a true connection and it really shows on every single of the songs. "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye" and "Bang Bang" are my favorite solo Gaga tracks!

    BUY THIS ALBUM NOW.

    To be honest, I didn't expect much from this album at all. I figured it was no more than Gaga's sideproject: but I am happy to say I've been proven otherwise! I love Lush Life, the energy on I Can't Give You Anything But Love, the band on Anything Goes and the live intensity on the iTunes bonus track "Bang Bang (He Shot Me Down)". Tony is a little boring so that's my only criticism. ButTo be honest, I didn't expect much from this album at all.

    BulletIn and other users in here seem to not appreciate what Gaga and Bennett are trying to do by doing classic songs to the younger generation. Even if these songs have been done many times, the couple makes the songs seem new since our young generation of people twerking and crap songs,Tony and Lad did an awesome job!TOTALLY BUT IT,WORTH IT!

    This album is one masterpiece, crafted by Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett.
    I was never intereste din jazz and did not listen to it - but since I've heard this album, I appreciate it.
    Tony Bennet's and Lady Gaga's voice shine in this album - even though they are a very unusual couple.

    Not a year after the release of Lady Gaga's 'ARTPOP', the Lady herself teams up with living legend Tony Bennett to deliver a refreshing album of Jazz Standards. The unusual pairing work proves to be a match made in heaven, as they soar through each song delivering a timeless album.

The unusual pairing work proves to be a match made in heaven, as they soar through each song delivering a timeless album. With naturally beautiful vocals from both Bennett and Gaga throughout the album, it is hard to find a flaw. The duo prove their mutual love and admiration for each other, as well as how well they work together, on tracks 'Nature Boy' and title track 'Cheek To Cheek', while each individually shining on their several respective solos; 'Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)' as one of Gaga's, and 'Sophisticated Lady' as one of Bennett's. It seems as though this is the first of many masterpieces by the duo.… Expand

    Ultimately, Cheek to Cheek is pleasant through and through. It’s not the greatest standards duets album ever recorded, but nor is it a dud.

    Cheek to Cheek is a record where the music and even the songs take a backseat to the personalities.

    Shallow, deeply unimaginative renditions [of standards out of the Great American Songbook].
