Tony Bennett's "Something" is a 1970 studio album by Tony Bennett. [2] As with Bennett's previous album, Tony Sings the Great Hits of Today! , it contains renditions of contemporary pop songs, including "Something", which had appeared on the earlier release. In recording Something, Bennett largely avoided the physical disgust he had with the previous album, a change that an AllMusic review credited to more tasteful arrangements. [1]

The album cover shows Bennett embracing his infant daughter, Joanna.

The album peaked at No. 193 on the Billboard Top LPs, during a two-week run on the chart. [3]

On November 8, 2011, Sony Music Distribution included the CD in a box set entitled The Complete Collection. [4]
