Diana Krall - Temptation

Lyrics:

Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
Everything is made from dreams
Time is made from honey slow and sweet
Only the fools know what it means
Temptation, temptation, temptation
Oh, temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Well I know that she is made of smoke
But I've lost my way
He knows that I am broke
But I must play
Temptation, oh temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Dutch pink and Italian blue
He is there waiting for you
My will has disappeared
Now confusion is so clear
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist

Great cover, soulful vocals and piano, and Christian Mcbride on bass is downright sinister!

[jameswolfaardt]

Waits is pure grit. This is honey with added grit. Fantastic !

[robahmann]

The magic that is Diana comes through in resonating waves. A flickering of the spot shines on the soul in the dark corners of life's sudden and mysterious epiphanies awakening one to the moment of musical bliss that is truly transcendent of the mundane world left behind!

[joefatalooch]

Absolute perfection. Musically and visually. A work of art.

[xoticenigma]

This song is an excellent song to introduce anyone new to Jazz— especially because of its seductive appeal 😊

[BertHesdahl]

Beautiful performance by Krall of a Waits' song. Great bass playing!

[icarus]

A glass of my best single malt, and this song.... better after midnight. So, so smooth.

I can resist to her voice. I’m a big fan from Switzerland since a very long time

Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
Everything is made from dreams
Time is made from honey slow and sweet
Only the fools know what it means
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
Well I know that he is made of smoke
But I've lost my way
He knows that I am broke
But I must play
Temptation, oh temptation, temptation
I can't resist
Dutch pink and Italian blue
He's there waiting for you
My will has disappeared
Now confusion is oh so clear
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist

[costaspyridis]

I always seem to drift back to the Tom Waits original...I just can't resist!

[Tov-hv]

I thinks That's her best song!🎉 JazzyT.

WISH I COULD GIVE THIS A THOUSAND LIKES.

[robynstuckey]

Love tom waites, dianna krall does a really good version as well.👍

[canadairflight]

Accipicchia, che fortuna ho avuto oggi a fare zapping su YouTube. Mi sono imbattuto casualmente su Questo bel brano e Diana Krall sin'ora a me sconosciuti. Mi piace molto la sua voce e la sua tecnica di canto. Bravissima.

[elizabethstocco]

Lovin that double bass ... awesome song ..

[Robert-lwy]

She strikes a chord in my heart every time she
