    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.

    Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference...

    Gaga comes off more as a dilettante than an aficionado on «Cheek to Cheek».... Bennett doesn't fare a whole lot better, his otherwise charming performances strained throughout.

    una agradable experiencia. una leyenda del jazz colaborando con una estrella del pop talentosa como lo es Lady Gaga, sin duda su versatilidad es evidente y su voz maravillosa

    la quimica y la armonizacion de las voces de ambos entregan un verdadero trabajo de calidad

    it’s a cultural reset, a reason to breathe. it’s the reason why I wake up, the reason why I eat, the reason why I live. it’s everything that gives me energy, everything that gives me strength, everything that i’ve ever wanted.

    Se nota que mierga solo intenta imitar a Amy winehouse, pero jamás podrá. Solo es una colgada sin talento.

    I don't usually listen to jazz but Lady Gaga's voice fits a genre like this.

    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.

    A collaboration no one expected to happen! This album created a beautiful friendship between Mr. Tony and Gaga. Truly a special one! :)

    Aqui começou a era dos escoramentos, se escorou no Bennett depois de flopar e ser detonada no pop, o melhor de tudo é os fãs forçando um estilo q eles não queriam kkkkkk

    Un álbum muy tranquilizante, interesante y además es peculiar, el Jass siempre estuvo presente en la historia de la música y este álbum lo demuestra, es muy bueno sinceramente.

    Ese estilo de jazz, no es mi favorito. Hasta para hacer covers debes saber con quién hacerlos, Gaga tiene buena voz pero no sabe interpretar, sólo por que es de Tony Bennett, le tomaré con más puntaje.

    "It Don't Mean a Thing" sounded like a song that would fit and be played well in a film soundtrack such as The Great Gatsby.

    Let's Face the Music and Dance deserves more attention, Tony and Gaga's duet here is balance.

    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

    this album made me love jazz! the chemistry between tony and gaga makes the experience even better.
    Gaga's vocals are impressive, if you didn't like it, I'm sorry to inform you, but you have terrible taste.

    Cheek to Cheek shows us yet another face of Lady Gaga. I honestly couldn't stand jazz nor was interested in listening but after hearing this record my opinion changed.

    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].
