What is Youtube anyway? A medium for sharing video/audio and a venue for media consumption and comment? Not much 'more than this' I would say. Nice job, Norah!
Yeah...it's making me sleepy...Add some weed and a girl...Oh yeah...I think I would hear every single instrument individually...that scratching thing is getting louder...LOUDER!!!!
Vapid. What's with the smacks of Amy Winehouse/Angelina Jolie in the singing/picture? Welsh people can do much better with their singing. P.S. : I am thinking "outside the box."
Everyone who was living through the 1980's were born to "think outside the box," - and our stuff sounded pretty damn good too as a result.
Most Covers that try to be better than original arent. One exception - for me - is: "Its my life" from "no doubt". The Nora Jones version of "more than this" was not meant to be a better copy, and so it stands out and need not to be compared to the original as "better" or "worse"
@crocotone I agree with you, I always loved this song done by RM and I was"'around" when it came out. I love Nora Jones and what she did with it here is sort of a Re- invention of the song. Love it.
I'm one of those who liked Roxy Music's original, being of that generation, but when I heard Norah's cover I thought wow - it sounds like the song was written for her voice.
Ah Hell..it's a good cover....Nothing ever will be like when I was in HS and riding down the road with my girlfriend under my arm listening to this in the night as we drove on. I miss the 80s sometimes. It was and is a beautiful and haunting lyric.
musically nothing wrong with this song. I actually prefer it when covers do something different with an original otherwise the cover becomes redundant in the sense that you could just listen to the original. I just feel a lot of the energy is gone in this cover compared to the original. B
Whats all the fuss ? Why do people think that a cover HAS to be played and sung EXACTLY as the original note for note ? Then those same people when they get that cover complain that it lacked originality ( Of course it did ! It's just a copy ) She took this song and made it HERS for this cover. She didn't butcher it. If you don't like the Idea of cover tunes that think OUTSIDE THE BOX -then perhaps you should just only listen to the original artist. 'Nuf said .
@kbdevo1962 If there is one thing I don't like it is a cover that tries to slavishly mimic the original (hint: the original will ALWAYS be better). The best covers and the ones that don't sound like a cover because the artist does it his/her own way.
@mwupchurch Brian Ferry is the HEAT but she took this song up about 5 notches....the original is poppy and hollow. this song is mature and deep!! I like Brian Ferry but there is no comparision.'
some really odd comments by obvious non-jazz people.....talking about beats and choruses.....WTF!!!!! Stop really, just stop......to all the brits leaving comments because an American artist BLEW UP a weak song by a very talented Brian Ferry---GTFOH!!!!! (get the fuck outta here) Europe has a long history of supporting and nuturing jazz, Europe STAND UP!!!!
ugly brits half cocked on german stein showing their ass.....the original sounds like cotton candy pop gone bad... Brian Ferry is a talent but this verison has got soul!!!!! It is deep while the original is shallow and immature.
I could sit through this if I was trying to get laid in an upscale cocktail lounge in foreign country chatting up a powerful woman with a big brain. Probably....
What the f_____ is this??? Why does this girl think, that she can sing just anything, just because she's a famous singer. This is really an awfull version of an 80's kicker hit.
The original song has good drums, good bass , a great voice for pop, a great guitar. It's perfect. Why then, are there people who screw everything ????
Conclusion, when some songs are great, you just have to leave them that way.
NORA: Nobody cares about your feelings of sing those songs in your style.
just as an acknowledgement to the talent that is bryan ferry & the obvious love she has for this song, it is a lovely gesture. i am sure he would be flattered to hear another rendition, but in my opinion....bryan ferry is a true gracious gentleman of distinction who sang THE most romantic song in the world!!! every song & performance exudes an debonair, worldy & seductive soul!!! friend me: lisa lyrykillassassin cammon on fb
You always take a big risk by covering a song that is already perfection, but I think she did okay. The only part I really didn't like was the way they did the chorus. Love Nora though. Very sweet, mature voice.
My ears have just been raped. And not in the good kind of rough sex sort of way either. Like, a stranger in a dark alley with whiskey on his breath and bad BO.
It's good that Norah experiments with different songs. It usually works quite well. This one is okay, but the jazz chords take the magic out of the song.
...still think Emmie's version of this is way better..........It's the slowwww tempo of this version that seems.....to.......yawn!!!.........sorry what was I saying....
I hate Nora Jones's music. Nothing personal against her or her fans, but her music is a perfect example of why today's music sux. Tuneless, lacking in arrangement, dirge-like monotone vocals, it just sounds like talentless noise played by strung out addicts or people trying way to hard to seem disaffected.
So sue me, but I like this version! So many covers are just imitations of the original. Charlie Hunter and Norah Jones have put their own stamp on it, which is what a cover should do.
I happen to like this version of the song. By the way this isn't Norah Jones version of the song. She's a guest artist on a Charlie Hunter Quartet, Charlie Hunter being a jazz guitarist, album.
75% or more of music heard on the radio is a cover or written by someone other than the person singing it. Each artist will have their own interpretation of the song which other artist, Bryan Ferry included, appreciate.
You don't have to like it but don't whine about it. You discredit yourself.
As much as I love Norah (and think she is underrated)..................she didn't do this classic justice! I give her credit for trying something different, though.
Trust me, everyone, I understand why this track - if on fire - none of you would piss on. For me, it is the distinct voices betwixt Norah and Ferry that make me respect this cover.
YES, there is much more *meat* to the song, but for myself... if anyone was to cover it in their own style, I'd prefer Norah than say... Ke$ha or the damn Black Eyed Peas for fooks sake.
I see there are 57+ people with the musical sophistication of a rock. Who would of thought Archie Bunker was still alive and well? Apparently he's still out there calling people "Meat Head" because they think differently or have different tastes.
this is a good song. i don't know why people think a song gets ruined when someone covers it. even if you don't like it, it's not as if the original song has been erased from existence
Awful! Unashamedly raping of a classic. Its dreery and monotone, there is no feeling in this whatsoever. I actually quite like her music in general, but this version is pathetic!
this was actually the first version i heard of this song... and then i just heard the original in a movie in the backround, and recognized it... it's wayyyy better
Sucubus, she's drained all the life out of it. Its like a very pale photocopy of the original, with coffee spilt over it. Most bland cover of all time?
@star17city First off this is just a song she's featured in so it wasn't her idea and second unless your retarded you would know that she's a jazz artist and the songs she covers are played in the jazz style.
Completely agree with you. She took away not just many beats per minute but also the sexyness of the song. 10000 Maniacs did a great cover, sounds sexier (since it is a woman the singer) but Norah made the song a complete lullaby.
@star17city She seems to have no feeling or understanding for or of the song. Her version gives it a whole new meaning: falling asleep during woopie! :)
ella me agrada,es exelente en lo suyo,pero esto es un horrible error.aburre,repleto de lugares comunes.tan previsible que irrita.una pena,porque me genero entusiasmo la eleccion del tema.
My friend, i'm a fan of good soccer (not doesn't matter what team does, but I' confess my heart belongs to Barça), i'm a fan of Nora Jones' face and finally i'm a fan of Roxy Music.
I don't know if I like it or not. I like some of it and then all of a sudden it's just wrong. Yikes! It still has the smoothness of Roxy Music about it. She certainly has made it her own.
my girlfriend knows that Nora Jones is the only woman i'd leave her for. ( her's is benecio del toro - for some reason - i guess i kind of get it -anyway ) I'd do it so quick she wouldn't even know I was gone - she'd still be talking to me from the living room - and i'd be showered, packed and scaling down the window in a nano second. Nora Jones - yummy yummy yummy yummy
This is absolutely CRAP. please DONT think your any good at this, and NO TY for posting, this person covers more than Pollyfilla, get your OWN SONGS BIOTCH!
I can't feel the emotions in this version. I'm afraid no one can top Mr. Ferry and Roxy Music. I could imagine this version being played at an overpriced restaurant.
wow. take a perfect filet mignon, cover it with ketchup and eat it on the toilet. only the most perverse curiosity made me click this link and i made it about 5 seconds into her squeaky "sexy" whisper before i threw up.
Several people have compared this to elevator music. That's a bit harsh--and not really true--but I agree with the spirit in which the complaint was made. Hey, there is no doubting NJ's talent: she has a golden voice and her piano chops are nice, too. But all that talent also reults in Norah trying too hard. Bryan Ferry's somber, existential lament of a song has been stripped of all emotion. In its place, NJ and her crew have provided a largely intellectual exercise.
Love this song, even when Bill Murray was murdering it, but this is soooo dull... NJ is cute to the max but the bland, the bland!!!! Nora, stop. Just stop. Try Spandau Ballet or something.
When I listen to this, I like it. But when I watch the pictures at the same time, I'm mesmerized. Don't know why... Guess I just relate to Nora and her voice. :-)

Takes the life out of the song. Awful. She's like lounge band in Lost in Translation.

Nice try, like her and her songs, but this takes away the "Feel" of the original song...

That's the way to kill a perfectly good song!
Absolutely horrible - the worst cover, ever.
I can't feel the emotions in this version. I'm afraid no one can top Mr. Ferry and Roxy Music. I could imagine this version being played at an overpriced restaurant.
But no offense to the video, it's good work. :)

Sorry for the lovers but she totally misses the point here.
The "deep" voice, original charm and the synth's.

The bill Murray version is gay I understand how a redneck can like it... Norah saved this song she added soul to it

Several people have compared this to elevator music. That's a bit harsh--and not really true--but I agree with the spirit in which the complaint was made. Hey, there is no doubting NJ's talent: she has a golden voice and her piano chops are nice, too. But all that talent also reults in Norah trying too hard. Bryan Ferry's somber, existential lament of a song has been stripped of all emotion. In its place, NJ and her crew have provided a largely intellectual exercise.

Love this song, even when Bill Murray was murdering it, but this is soooo dull... NJ is cute to the max but the bland, the bland!!!! Nora, stop. Just stop. Try Spandau Ballet or something.

Norah Jones: she's pretty and entertaining. What else is there? Beautiful women need love too.

When I listen to this, I like it. But when I watch the pictures at the same time, I'm mesmerized. Don't know why... Guess I just relate to Nora and her voice. :-)

Nora's cover of this song is O.K....But it doesn't send shivers down my spine like the original...

Not bad, but it still lacks the 80's touch of the original.
