thankful that i chanced a different artists version , its a great, no an amazing rejiggle of a beautiful song , big up madeleine ! love the leonard cohen on jools holland too , he sings with such conviction , legend.
My mom was a big band singer, so I was raised listening to Billie and Ella and Sarah and Peggy Lee. I thought I'd heard everything Billie Holiday recorded. When Ms. Peyroux's voice first came over the radio, I was gobsmacked. It's not that she's in any way imitating Billie. That can't be done. But, no one I've ever heard has taken up that torch the way Madeleine Peyroux does. Wow.
I just love this song! The writer and the singer are the best!! Dance me to the end of love. I like it sung by Leonard Cohen, and I like it even more when it's sung by by Madeleine Peyroux! She's the greatest!! I'm so glad I found this video....thank you....merci beaucoup....khobkhun kha...
No one ever will be Billie Holiday, as no one ever will be Leonardo Cohen. they are legend and that is it. but that is said Madeline has a beautiful voice and yes she does remind me of Billie Holiday
I'm curious how many of you, or any of Peyroux's fans, are aware that she is almost a total mimic rather than an original stylist - this is a complete imitation of Billie Holiday, one of the greatest and most ORIGINAL singers of all time. Holiday was black, of course, and went through a lot of dues back in the 30's and 40's to establish herself - I find this rip off rather obscene - love Leonard Cohen's song writing though.
@92ninersboy Nothing wrong with this imitation! After all, we've lost Billie; she won't be singing anything new. I'm happy to have discovered this voice.
Eu aprendi a gostar de Jaz, à anos a traz, reconheço não ter dado a devida a atenção, vou estar mais atento também agora tenho mais tempo e amigos para me lembrarem das novidades. Muito obrigado. Mas é bonita e tem uma excelente interpretação.
What? Are you kidding us CRG? This is written by the awesome Leonard Cohen. Look him up on here and listen to the master do his stuff!

Someone should have said that this is a Leonard Cohen song. The commentator who said this is mimicryof Billie Holliday is perfectly correct.
