Temptation by Diana Krall written by Tom Waits

A tongue-in-cheek music video with subtle messages by CG Imaging.

How can we rise to our highest potentials if we can not successfully deal with TEMPTATION?

This version of the song "Temptation" is performed by Diana Krall and was written by Tom Waits.

I don't know who the guy is at the very beginning and very end of the video; but we sure could do without that mess. It is distracting and take a few seconds to get into the video. At the end, it abruptly breaks the mood of the video. I want to go away with the video sliding about in my mind and in my heart

Hey pcburke2,

Regarding your complaints: The guy at the beginning, middle and end of this video is the infamous and legendary "Tom Waits", the author of the song. Do some research and then check out this video again.

Regards and thanks,

Charles

Nice work - an interesting balance with your SG art...speaking of Tom Waits, I have heard that the dimensions of box of Marlboro reds contains the golden mean...

[CGimaging]

Hey Chris,

Because of your fascinating comments, I actually left my hermetic cave to purchased a box of Marlboro Reds (a very expensive TEMPTATION) and measured it. And NO, I can not find any Golden Mean relationship in the box.

Phi Ratio (Golden Mean) = 1.6180339....

Width of Box = 55 m.m.

Hight of Box = 83 M.M.

That makes Marlboro Red box about 6 M.M. short

My larger question is: who starts these goofy rumors?

And now I have to smoke these things! Really GOOFY!

Regards,

Charles

I love it, Charles. It was nice to see the reappearance of the concentric circle coins. :)

Hey chanisco,

Wow! I didn't see that but yes. It must have been a subconscious homage to my own video "Sacred Geometry 101A: 7 Pennies".

Both versions (Cote de Pablo and Diana Krall) are good, but I think I prefer Cote's... plain old prefer it, heard it first (I tend to like the first ones I hear better), and there's an explosion at the end.

Well for once I'm SPEECHLESS! first..... the video and then all the strange comments! Not a good one to watch if your a Diana Krall fan!

Well, without that "noisy piece of shit", you wouldn't get to hear her sing shit she couldn't write herself.

Some fucking logic on this chode. Next time this comes on in the elevator at your little corporate button-down desk job... hang yourself with your necktie, you testosterone-lacking, comb-overing, shoe-lift wearing turd.

And damn the bastard who put this song on the Tom Waits playlist I was (up until this point) enjoying.

Thanks very much for posting. Love Tom Waits, Diana Krall, Elvis Costello, Willie Nelson, Norah Jones, ...

[alinthebest]

@CGimaging I dont't give a fuck who the guy is. I came here to listen Diana Krall, not that noisy piece of shit.

P.S. I know he's the author, but the title says Diana Krall, not Tom Waits.

I love how her cover, while much "cleaner", still has that voodoo feel of the original.

COTE DE PABLO RULEZ!!!!!
