I got to witness her (and them) playing Ol 55 by Tom Waits for soundcheck at a show I was working in early 00s at Georgia Tech's theater and it was mesmerizing. I don't ever recall getting full chills from a soundcheck like that before. And then she was incredibly sweet on top of it.
The Long Way Home" Well I stumbled in the darkness I'm lost and alone Though I said I'd go before us And show the way back home Is there a light up ahead I can't hold on very long Forgive me pretty baby But I always take the long way home Money's just something you throw Off the back of a train Got a head full of lightening And hat full of rain And I know that I said I'd never do it again Oh well I love you sweet baby But I always take the long way home I put food on the table And a roof overhead But I'd trade it all tomorrow For the highway instead Watch your back if I should tell Your love's the only thing I'd ever known One thing's for sure sweet baby I always take the long way home Though I love you baby More than the whole wide world I'm your woman You know you are my pearl So let's go out past the party lights Where we can finally be alone Come with me and we can take a long way home Come with me, together we can take the long way home Come with me, together we can take the long way home
After a long hard day, on the way back home, when you listen to this soft creature, you tend to forget your tiredness, and looking forward to raise a Glass of Champagne.
I think she's way off of being a commercial singer-composer. And i think she's one of the most romantic artist of all time. Her love songs are si beauthyfull!!
Great cover. This song always evokes childhood days for me -walking down a country road with a pal or two, on the way home. Kicking stones with no care in the world.
Nora Jones is not only extremely talented with such a relaxing and comforting voice, she is sincerely drop dead gorgeous, truly “the whole package.” I’d love to see her live should she ever be in Salt Lake City, Utah… even if I was deaf, I could enjoy sitting close by and looking at her beautiful face, if she’d let me😇🇺🇦🇺🇸🇮🇱🥰🫵.
HERMOSA CANCIÓN!!!! AL ESCUCHARLA , VUELVO DE REGRESO A LA ÉPOCA EN QUE CONOCÍ A MI ESPOSA!!! tengo los mejores recuerdos escuchando a Norah, perfect song.
Omg, This was AMAZING !! Love you, NOrah, saw you in Paris only a coulpe of days ago and you made it back to the stage as we were clapping so hard no to let you go and you played this one adn Turn me On for goodbye ! Thank you !!!!
Love her voice. At times I can hear a little bit of Stevie Nicks in her voice with this particular song. Nevertheless, she is unique in her own way. Absolutely beautiful!
I LOVE her... I was telling a friend of mine the other day that I would like to be Paolo Nutini in the next life and that I would marry her I she will reincarnate as Norah Jones. Imagine the duets! *-*
I beleive the lyric is "Watch your back, Keep your eyes shut tight" - regardless of that , and regardless of the fact that I am not a fan of Norah Jones, she IS a beautiful singer, with a beautiful voice and does a beautiful job on this song. Muchos Gracias.
