Her playing attracted the attention of bass player Ray Brown, who brought her into touch with influential teachers and producers. At the age of seventeen, she won a scholarship from the Vancouver Jazz Festival to study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. After three terms she moved to Los Angeles to study with Jimmy Rowles, with whom she also began to sing. In 1990, Krall relocated to New York. She is married to British musician Elvis Costello.
Who Are You
Diana Krall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You never let me down before
I don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I would not leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care
I don't want clever conversation
I don't want to work that hard
I just want some someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from my heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

The brats at Keith STYLE Park, Saturday night trashed the joint.
Also, wrecked BUGS game tables.
Don't know how he is gonna kick their arses.
HE WILL, he don't like that kind of DISRESPECT.
Let's see.
Also I spent over 2 hours, picking up rubbish, removing broken glass, then brush and shovel on knees sweeping up glass shards.
No one helped.
Many compliments for my efforts, not one emulated my caring for community behaviour.
THE GOD FORCE AINT IMPRESSED.
SORRY TO SAY.
