Tony Bennett (born August 3, 1926) is an American popular music, standards, and jazz singer who is widely considered to be one of the best interpretative singers in these genres. After having achieved artistic and commercial success in the 1950s and early 1960s, his career suffered an extended downturn during the height of the rock music era. However, Bennett staged a remarkable comeback in the late 1980s and 1990s, expanding his audience to a younger generation while keeping his musical style intact. He remains a popular and critically praised recording artist and concert performer in the 2000s. Tony Bennett is also a serious and accomplished painter.

The Gentle Rain
Tony Bennet
(Matt Dubey/Luiz Bonf)
We both are lost and alone in the world,
Walk with me in the gentle rain.
Don't be afraid; I've a hand for your hand,
And I will be your love for a while.
I feel your tears as they fall on my cheek,
They are warm in the gentle rain.
Don't be afraid; I've a hand for your hand,
And our love will be sweet, will be sad,
Very sweet like the gentle rain, like the gentle rain,
Like the gentle rain, gentle rain, gentle rain, gentle rain
