built 229 days ago
April 23, 2003 - She's back to selling cars - Diana Krall is part of another television advertising campaign for Chrysler. The first commercial for the Chrysler Sebring Sedan and Convertible made its national debut last week and featured Krall singing L.O.V.E. a song recorded specifically for this ad. Phase two of the campaign debuts on May 5th with Krall singing Charmed Life. She joins another Canadian diva, Celine Dion who ... represents Chrysler on TV spot.

The greatest hope for Krall’s future... comes as The Very Best of Diana Krall nears its conclusion. Taken from the sessions for The Girl in the Other Room, her Joni Mitchell-esque interpretation of Tom Waits’ The Heart of Saturday Night is downright masterful. In terms of Krall’s pop-oriented inclinations, this song is her biggest success, and the fact that it initially wound up on the cutting room floor speaks volumes about the all-too-careful approach she has taken to marketing her work.

In addition to winning GRAMMY and Juno awards, Krall is an Officer of the Order of Canada. The Order recognizes Diana's outstanding achievement and lifetime contributions to Canada recognizing national service and high degree of merit.

Krall is the luminous standard-bearer of the torchy nightclub ingénue made famous by the foggy Billie Holiday, but with a breath of fresh pine-filled mountain air. In the smoky gray of Diana Ross' movie about Holiday, as in real life, Holiday keened sad love songs in such a mournful, struggling way she epitomizes the melodic crooning of soulful female torches forever. Then and now, Holiday/Ross was the 'Lady Sings the Blues.'

Outside of the circle of femaleness, Diana was goddess of the hunt and particularly of the chase with bow and arrow. The first surge in popularity for Diana as a girl’s name swept through wealthy aristocratic families during the Renaissance. Hunting was their preferred sport, whether of wild boar or peasant, and they loved the image of their daughters as Diana, twanging the bow and sending the mortal arrow thrusting deep into the heart of their prey.

Mr. Krall was unable to give any details about when or where the nuptials will take place. He does... give the union his blessing. The engagement has been confirmed by Krall’s management, Sam Feldman & Associates.
