I've never heard any other version giving a light-hearted treatment to this song. It requires brilliant control and musical creativity to do this. Haley has it all. Jeff Goldblum could never have found another singer to pull this off like this.
I love me some Jeff Goldblum. He's the total package. What a loveable multi talented goofball. First time hearing Haley. Wow! Love that jazzy kitten growl and that sax. Wish my dad was still with me and we were dancing to that live. Holy cow would he have been blown away by her!
nice reaction... jeff goldblum is great but the real gem here is haley reinhart. she maybe the best vocalist and performer of our time (certainly the most underrated). i think what is so phenomenal about haley is not just her amazing silk to sandpaper voice but also her character and soul that she puts into the performances. check out her amazing work with postmodern jukebox (aka pmj) who takes current popular songs and completely re-imagines them vintage (1920s to 1960s) in the music itself and style of the performances that actually take you back in time. they have a variety of good vocals but haley with pmj is exceptional. haley/pmj collaboratons "creep", "all about the bass", "seven nations army", and "don't speak" highly recommended. haley's solo career is also superb. she has 4 LPs including: "listen up", "better", "what's that sound" and "lo-fi soul" and a recent EP "off the ground" for which she is currently on tour. her lack of mass popularity and industry recognition is primarily due to her resistance to major labels in order to maintain creative control of her music. this significantly limits exposure to tv, radio, etc. her biggest hit is "can't help falling in love with you" that was created and promoted by Extra Gum for an award winning commercial campaign. it now has well over 425m views and reached double platinum status. it is stunning and frequently described as what love sounds like here: (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_uNpEbt7w_o.html ) 😎
Thanks for that, IT was great fun to watch hot, hot Haley with Goldblum. She sucked all the oxygen out of the air with her teasing. She's like a very young Mae West.
