  1. We can't keep them in our lives forever. One of the best voices in recording history and the only voice that was strong and crystal clear including his last performance with Gaga at Radio City Music Hall at the age of 95.

  3. He had this warmth and gentleness about him which allowed his collaborators to feel safe and comfortable enough to really let themselves go. His duet with Lady Gaga on "Lady Is A Tramp" is one for the ages. It's the best version of that song ever. Damn, will he be missed.

  4. A great performer, whose voice will live forever in vinyl and electronic forms. May he rest in peace.

  11. A voice for the ages. We were lucky he was able to perform so late in life.
