"Love for Sale," a collaboration with Lady Gaga, was released on Oct. 1, and at the time, Bennett was 95 years and 60 days old, according to Guinness.

Sounds like Barry Goldwater:

“A few years before his death, he addressed establishment Republicans by saying, “Do not associate my name with anything you do. You are extremists, and you’ve hurt the Republican party much more than the Democrats have.” (from Wikipedia)

A worthless Obama loving has-been. Can’t stand to even look at him.

His version of the title song can be found on Youtube, and it's every bit as bad as you think it will be. It can't hold a candle to this version, a Top 20 hit.

Yes, it is. A hit in the spring of '31.
