What better song to pick up our spirits and what better artist to bring the people together? – Check out the lyrics

Let us all join legendary singer Tony Bennett as he leads a singalong. 

The 93-year-old crooner is asking not only the Bay Area residents but everyone around the world to come together for a mass singalong to his signature tune, “I Left My Heart in San Francisco,” on Saturday, April 25 at Noon in honor of the frontline workers engaged in responding to the coronavirus pandemic.

11:55am: Churches and Houses of Worship to Play Bells
12noon: Sing-A-Long of I Left My Heart in San Francisco
12:05pm: San Francisco Fire Department to run sirens on engine trucks and ambulances in tribute to first responders everywhere

WHERE: Wherever people are at 12noon PDT – at home, on the street, in their gardens, or on their porches.

NOTE: There are no large scale public gatherings or official performances. Anyone singing outside is reminded that wearing a mask is MANDATORY and to observe social distancing protocols

“San Francisco has been in my heart for over 50 years,” he said. “I am so proud and impressed with how the City by the Bay has continued to ‘bend the curve’ during the COVID-19 crisis and serve as an inspiration to the world of how together and alone we can make a difference,” Bennett said.

Legendary 93-year-old singer leads virtual sing-along to honor frontline workers. Share your rendition of “I Left My Heart in San Francisco.” Make a video of yourself or with your family belting it out during Saturday’s singalong and send it via Dropbox by 5 pm.
