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.
Man, I wish Norah would live in the apartment upstairs so I could hear her playing and singing all day...
You'd be banging your ceiling with a broomstick whenever STOPPED singing, right? Haha!
Id hang out with you and have a beer.
She's the only one who gets to sing this song for me, hands down the Best!
Me too !❤
Absolutely love her voice and her personality goes beyond good and I love love love her music 🎵 ❤🎉😊Wow!!!!
This is one of those rare Waits covers that works beautifully - the song just fits Norah's voice so very well.
she smashes it...
Tom wrote it for her originally. He later released his own recording of it on his compilation Orphans album.

Man, what a confidence booster it must be to have Waits say, "hey I wrote this for you to sing"
where did he say it ?
This is a marvelous version. She takes Tom Waits song, which is in itself a thing of art, and make it her own. Excellent!
Patrick Johnson any dìffrent version at all Patrick, just a wanderful voice
"Money is just a thing you throw from the back of a train" --I love that line.
Norah Jones sings this song so beautifully!
This girl can sing anything and give it lots of warmth.
😀 Great way to start the morning with an awesome video! Happy 2024!!! 😀
One does not simply do a cover of Tom's song. But Ms Jones, you took it on another level of epicness...
This is one of my favourite Norah songs, and she looks just stunning in this video. Five Stars Poster.
Wow almost ten whole years ago this was uploaded! How time flies - she’s still one of my favorite old voices
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
👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Thank you for the song lyrics you uploaded.
Never heard this before, and it's terrific, I guess Norah could sing a page out of an old phone book and make it a great song.
素晴らしい👍
歌詞をあげてくださり感謝します！
When Tom does this I think he sings 'Watch your back eyes shut tight, your love's the only thing...'. Anyone know?
She has one the best voices in my opinion love her !!
+Thabie Melvin Beautiful textures in her voice, and she has perfect pitch and the ability to sing movingly without irrelevant gymnastics.
she is great. she doesnt even need to put any effort in singing like this it sounds like it just comes natural
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 love her voice. I never tire of it.
Commercial or not, she have a great voice. This version of Tom Waits song is incredible.
I bet Tom Waits likes it, too. Great artists recognize one another.
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!!
Beautiful!!! She is soft, warm and cool
🎶🎶♥️Home….. Home is where your heart is ♥️🎶🎶♥️It’s not a location on a map ♥️🎶🎶🌹
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.

Just a perfect performance. Norah proves it over and over: if you love the song, the song will love you back.
wow,, she can do,, jazz, blues, bluegrass, country and standards,,, she can even fuse 'em all ! :).. amazing :)
That voice, that face… chills.
One of my favorite commuting songs, right up there with 6 days on the road, and wish you were here.
I always knew it was a real double bass and not an electric bass. Only a traditional double bass would produce such a raw wooden sound. So soothing.
Norah, Norah..!!!! No matter how long it is, as long as I keep listening you,,,,.....God Bless U.
Her thanking the audience for coming is so sweet. The song, of course, is perfect.
Tom Waits❤
@@Espina907 Without a doubt.

Amo questa canzone ❤❤❤
Good music and what a nice rendition.
Ms. Scarlett Johansson sings Mr. Waits! And Ms. Norah Jones sings Mr. Waits!!!
God! Mankind still has a vestige of Hope!!!
Right approach!!!!!
She is so pretty, the song is sublime and it makes me feel as if all the past was better.
She sings so effortlessly...!!!
❤cool❤🎉
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! *-*

a great original song, and a great cover - both special and awesome in their own way - not even comparable.
My most lovely singer always and for ever...

I love this song and Norah sings it with a wonderful drama. This is a perfect song to the one I love. It describes our situation and the way I am.
The way home is niether long or short. It is whatever time it takes to learn.
