The singer who Rolling Stone magazine called him "the greatest showman of our generation" has sold over 80 million records. He's been bankrupt twice but bounced back on each occasion. He talks about growing up in Brooklyn and what inspired his new album My Dream Duets where by the magic of technology he sings alongside artists like Louis Armstrong, Marilyn Monroe and Whitney Houston.
