I’ve never listen to jazz music, and I think that you really must love this kind of music, but I don’t know, this interpretation by Diana just punch me right into into my heart and I really like it. Brilliant!
There is such …
There is such freedom expressed in this version of her many performances of this tune. She is always a surprise live. Thank you for this posting. Diana proves, in my humble opinion, that ecclectic jazz can speak in many ways, each with its own fabulous interpretation to thrill us all - TEMPTATION is only one of her very bests.

I’ll grant you the color. My point, though made tongue in cheek, was the cut down the back. Actually, I’d like to hear Ms. De Pablo do the entire song, if it’s available.

if ur refering to the dress cote wears during last man standing (6×01) it’s actually a deep purple colour but looks blue.

Wrong goutsides442. I’m a huge Waits fan and Diana Krall fan - not so much. But this is a wonderful interpretation. Great job of getting into Waits mode by whole band.
I really like Tom’s rhythm section on the original but his voice on that one is so bizarre it never sank in.
Accept this. Go ahead, now.
Have you heard ” …
Have you heard “Basin Street East Proudly Presents Miss Peggy Lee”? She was much better live on that CD(less polished but more imaginative!) than on most of the more sanitized CDs. I mean, a better musician than you’re giving her credit for.

Same here. Also, I Wikki’d Cote de Pablo, and found out that she is a singer in her own right. Speaking of which, how did Ms de Pablo manage to wear that blue dress and a straight face at the same time?

i don’t have any opinion on diana cuz this is the first time i heard of her but i only looked it up cuz ziva from ncis sings it in episode 1 season 6. ziva has a great voice and i like the way she (ziva aka cote de pablo) sings it.

As a jazz pianist, Diana is extremely talented as a piano player. She was playing when she was three years old, a born genius with perfect pitch. She has great swing and voicings, and is far from trite. You need to listen to more of her playing. Try to do what she can and does. It’s no easy task, and to sign while you are doing it…that is why she is so popular and deserves it. She is no Ella, but Ella wasn’t a piano player, too.
such an awfull …
such an awfull version , it almost sounds spoken without any real emotion…..Tom Waits deserves much better. the bassit was ok though.
Well said!

She’s got chops, …
She’s got chops, sure, but no more so than thousands of other music school grads waiting tables. She’s utilized her pouty looks to financial but not artistic advantage, making album after album where she’s in skimpy undies looking sultry and murmuring about love. Nothing *wrong* with that–it’s brought her lots of fame and fortune–but don’t tell me she’s up there with Bird, Ella, Dizzy, Coltrane, Miles, Monk, Mingus, Dolphy, etc. She’s closer to Peggy Lee or Polly Bergen.
