She doesn't have Tom Waits voice either!...They are both unique in their own ways, while we can acknowledge how talented Norah is...Tom waits is already a legend!
NO. Doesn't come even close to what Waits does with the tune and lyrics. This seems more like a pop country ballad. Her voice is extremely charming in its own right, though.
As far as i'm aware he actually wrote it for her i know he put it on his awesome album Orphans, she is a beauty and a fantastic voice...but Tom.....what can i say....is that man even human?
I'm a Tom Waits fan and think this cover is incredible. Is it just me? ...doesn't she have one of the the most beautiful voices and faces you have ever seen?!
What a combination! The sultry voice of Norah Jones with a muted country bass beat for Tom Waits "Long Way Home". Well, it is a long way from home, but I love it equally as much - maybe even more.
Dude, I'm a hard rock guitarist, have been for over 20 years and I don't know how someone could 'dislike' this. I love songs like this just as much as I love Breadfan or Bark at the Moon. Tom Waits is beyond description in his singing/song-writing talent. Norah Jones has a beautiful voice. Excellent cover.
I am usually a stickler and an bit of an admitted "grouch" when it comes to ANYONE doing Tom Waits covers, especially of my favorite songs, but this.... BEAUTIFUL..
How good does she get? Leaves the originals of all the songs she sings in the dust. Amazing talent. Tom Waites, Ray Charles and Johnny Cash eat your hearts out.

Tom Waits sure has influence on people. Talk about flattering, but I love his versions of his songs the best. Norah Jones is absolutely gorgeous though and she has a lovely voice.
@TruthSurge you should write him a letter and explain his mistake. make sure you talk about music theory to demonstrate the breadth of your expertise. then he'll know who the boss is.
yeah, i'm not a "Norah Jones Fan", but i won't hesitate to declare my affection for her performance of this tune...Conjures a soft, sardonic smile to my face...
Great album!! This is what I call an album is.. And know what you can download the entire album for free at DownloadMusic/./im, just remove the slashes guys..
You must be a huge Waits fan "nothing wrong with that at all, you're entitled to your opinion", but when it comes to Jones' rendition, I must disagree.
Some covers are good, some horrible, and some which make you want to vomit, but this is rather great.
the way back the way back the way back the way back the way back they way back the way back the way back the way back the way back the way back the way back home.
There have been comments on Norah's natural beauty. She's hot enough without strumming a guitar and singing but when you mix those in the pot......(My God)
Other than that......completely original and not washed out. I think we are going to get married soon. j/k
I met a guy in a bar that told me he's in the furniture moving business. The day after she won a boatload of grammys, she hired him to move her from a little shit apartment in Brooklyn to an super cool apartment in Manhattan . He said she seemed kinda freaked out at her sudden success but was a sweet girl and a big tipper.
I don't know what happened to it, I can't seem to find it on here anymore, but she did a Johnny Cash song (Home of The Blues) at his tribute concert/show, DAMN!!!!! As good of an argument for cloning as I have ever seen. We could all have Norah's........
Exactly. Have you ever seen such a mix of talent in one pretty package? The first time I ever heard of NJ was when I stumbled upon this song on YouTube. I thought, "Who the hell is THIS?" I can't even stomach Tom Waits's original after hearing this (no offense to Tom and his great songwriting skills).
When I forwarded this link to friends I added, "This woman needs to have my children" (and this is coming from a guy with a vasectomy, so that should show how fine I think she is).
How can one find the words to describe this? Emmylou meets James Burton anew? Norah - no rotten sound can come forth from you because you are full of light and beauty, and only sweetness itself has found it's lodging with you. I'd say you are art personified.
greatvortex!!! you make me smile cause you are one of the most stupid people in the world!!! you don't know nothing about music so you can say what you want because the words that you say are idiot like you!!! ciao ciao!!!

May you be thrown off the back of a train for this disgraceful comment. She does a good job with this one, and a few others.
