Norah Jones has teamed up with Joshua Homme of Queens of the Stone Age to put a smooth spin on Frank and Nancy Sinatra’s classic song, “Somethin’ Stupid.” Check out a video of the performance below.
For an upcoming episode of her podcast Norah Jones is Playing Along, Jones and Homme covered the track , which was written by C. Carson Parks in 1966 and popularized by the Sinatra family the following year. With quiet voices, soft guitar plucks from Joshua, and powerful keywork from Norah, the cover stands out on its own as a striking new take on a classic.
