2 DAYS TILL NEW YEARS EVE. IF YOU WANNA HEAR THE NEW YEARS ANTHEM FOR 2012 AND BEYOND. CLICK MY NAME "NEWYEARSKING2012" AND LISTEN TO THIS HOT SONG. SHARE WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS. DONT FORGET TO COMMENT
Truly Amazing! But then, who'd expect less from this classy, talented lady. For a male version (live in concert) to compare and contrast, search "What are you doing New Years Eve? Terrence O'Brien" and let me know what you think... similarities, differences???
I love this song. The live orchestra adds a forties flair to it, and Diana Krall's voice is just so smoky and perfect for the tone of this song. I love how her voice fails a little on the lower notes and she ends them with a barely discernible rasp; such an authentic singer.
Beautiful tune and she does it justice. I only wish that radio stations would allow longer songs. This was kept under 5 min. to satisfy air play... If this was done in Billie Holiday's time, you'd also get to hear an amazing solo by Lester.
Love this song and have many versions by different artists and this is by far the best. The mood she creates, the feeling she puts into the song the way the orchestra plays is more than first class it's in a league of it's own.
This is the most gorgeous song I think I've ever heard and this recording literally made me cry because it's SO beautiful! The arrangement and Diana's voice and composure... pure bliss!
I am a musician/singer. Most tunes have "A" (the first 8 bars) with one set of lyrics, then "A" is repeated with a DIFFERENT set of lyrics. Then comes along "B", the bridge, the middle part. Then back to "A" again, with YET ANOTHER different set of lyrics. No wonder Barbara S. and others go nuts with the fear of forgetting the lyrics. INSIST on prompters.
I sit at the piano like Diana. If I were a Stand Up Singer ...
I do not believe that singing is her forte- stick to the piano...Julie London comes to mind. HOwever, her jazz piano interpretations really cooks....Diane is way up there in the stratosphere with all the greats. Tatum, Peterson, Tristano, Sharon, Garner. etc etc - no other living artist can come near her today.
"Why is she reading ??" - it's pretty simple if you think about it - !st, it's not uncommon for professional musicians (including Ms Krall !!) to sight read and
2nd, this is a song you can only sing on one night a year....not too many opportunities to perform the song.
Exquisite! It's the only word that truly captures Krall's jazzy genius and sexy stylings. Impossible to duplicate. I just listen raptly and in awe. And I'm a jazz torch singer. Whew! She's the goddess.
Happy New Year to all!...Believe me, Diana isn't among the missing tonight..She has a gig somewhere and going home with Elvis Costello.........HAPPY 2009!!!
She's not bored, she's sad. It's about someone you've recently met and like around new years. And maybe you've exchange numbers but they haven't called even though you hinted around that you want to spend new years eve with them. and if they don't call to spend new years eve with you, then at midnight she/he will be kissing someone else that night. while you, maybe, are spending new years eve alone.
Did you even listen to the lyrics? Most singers ruin this song. A singer who once again faces the loneliness of no one to be with the one night of the year you do not want to be alone.
The lyrics tell you, they dont feel they have any chance of getting a date. The song delivers that internal hollow feeling of being alone. She sings this song as good as it can be done. The lingering tones of the subdued brass extend the air of loneliness. One of the best jazz recordings I have ever heard.
@charles43110 that is EXACTLY why I love Jazz and Diana in particular (mose allison is my other fave). The lyrics, the music, the engineering...YOU never have a bad time with jazz. I love the expression close enough for jazz :) that's my life's motto :) xo
If you listened to the lyrics you'd realize the two subject in the song are already dating (although casually) as denoted by the line "maybe it's much to early in the game"...she isn't emoting she's sing like she sings everything else. She possesses the emotive qualities of a re-animated corpse.
@TheJalex11 I know the song well. She is off the charts popular right now. If you dislike her SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH why do you waste your life haunting a blog about her? Are you so pathetic that you have nothing of real value to do with your time except to be snotty with people who enjoy her?
You are a miserable person. You make me smirk at you. You actually believe your doing something to irritate me. You are so nasty your like a cartoon character. It must be awful being you.
I rather enjoy being me!! I also enjoy that I can articulate an argument instead of resorting to person attacks. If you get so upset by any opinion that counters your own I'd suggest not posting your views at all. I was looking for versions of this song and came across this video. I wouldn't have commented at all except that I thought you disregarded a key line in your assessment of the lyrics. As I said if you don't want to be countered don't join a discussion.
You have infantile taste, no discernment, express yourself poorly and don't know anything about artistic vocalization. Her voice is stunning and her tecnique is one of the best ever.
Yeah, Diana's great. Did you know that the context of this song as it was originally written (by Frank Loesser) was that it's being sung in March or something like that? Totally changes things when you think about it. But it's become a Christmas song, which is okay, because it's a great tune.
WHAT do you mean what is she doing with Elvis Costello? He is freakin brillant and an amazing musician and person. Hard qualities to pass up, I'd say. She is simply INCREDIBLE with an INCREDIBLE husband
Dianna baby. I have something wonderful for you, you will never forget. Love you hon. Love your piano and singing. This number is being done at too slow a beat. But, love you anyway babe.
she is with elvis costello becuase he wouldnt be such an ass to say "have something here for you". nice technique and will see you marry a girl your mama would be proud of
Hey bro, I'm with you. Obviously some people can't take a joke.
Anyway, another wonderful contribution to the musical world by Krall. And to think I once heard her say something about how she only sings because she's waiting for somebody better to come along. No doubt, a wonderful piano player...but that voice! Amazing!
Can anyone tell me if Diana is going to be going on tour anytime soon in 2008???? If so when please if there is anyone that may know can you tell me please.
i listened diana krall one day and i liked alot of the songs on that album , but really, i had the impresion that she is an afro-american woman....later i saw a picture and i was so...amazed...conclusion - Lovely voice
Wow. Barbara Streisand's daughter in-law (Josh Brolin's wife). Heard B. Streisand say how proud she is to have her in her family. What a talent!
