Tony Bennett – ‘The Days Of Wine And Roses’
A beautiful rendition of my favourite Johnny Mercer/Henry Mancini composition by two masters of Musical virtuosity.

Sorry Tone. love you, but..this one belongs to Andy W….
Beautiful and gorgeous.
It brings my beautiful memory while I was in Canberra and I listent this song every night.
Greeting from Hong Kong 🙂
Love it!
The Days of wine and roses laugh and runaway like a child a play,
through the meadowland toward a closing door,
a door marked “Nevermore” that wasn’t there before.
The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
of the golden smile that introduced me to the Days of Wine and Roses and you.
great duo as always.nice posting.
@Geraldolini ridiculous. AW recorded it with a full orchestra. this man sings it with just a piano! Its ridiculous to compare. an orchestra can hide a singers flaws and vulnerabilities. TB had no one to provide cover and he came through in great fashion.
@KentuckyJet you’re right no comparison. I do love Tony Bennett’s version as well. However, this song is most identified with AW. Actually they both recorded this around 62-63. But, AW version seemed to be most popular as far a record sales. It is also the one I most remember from long ago. Perry Como did a version as well. I agree with you that TB has a great instrument…one of a kind! He’s still goin too…
@winelight1 … great place canberra , used to live and work there ! … this song won the eurovision contest in 1962 ! ! ! ! … it has a haunting spiritual quality to it ! liked hong kong too ! !
Just perfect
Bill Evans’ work on the piano makes the great treatment by Tony Bennet move this version into the marvelous. What a satisfying treat!
Very nice…beautiful song. Check out Monica Mancini’s version and also the Henry Mancini version w/chorus.
Thanks for this wonderful song and performance of the great Toni…Obrigado
Bello tema!!!
I had never heard the lyrics of this song before, but at the end, when he finished with “the days of wine and roses …and…” I somehow predicted he was going to say “you”Â
Wonderful!!!!
… No words to describe… Just emotion <3
Tony is a master! Always was and always will be!
Absolutely beautiful. Have Barbra Streisand and him ever made a duet? That would probably be celestial ?
that piano. that voice. my god
I see that 8 people were having the shakes and pressed the wrong button…
They are not long,the day’s of wine and roses.This is mine and my husbands song.
