Over the years he recorded duets with the likes of Sinatra, Elton John, Céline Dion, Liza Minelli, Josh Groban, Bryan Ferry and Sting, as well as the classical tenors Luciano Pavarotti and Plácido Domingo. He opened for Édith Piaf at the Moulin Rouge. He was granted a star on the Hollywood walk of fame in 2017.
One of his most popular songs was "She". Listen to him here:
