The word of the day is "chanteuse". Can you say that with me? "Chaaaan-TEUSE." I knew you could do it! I don't know why, but when discussing the hot young sensation known as Norah Jones, critics always feel the need to use the word "chanteuse". ...

Pros: The album offers a great sound that can be hard to find these days. Cons: The songs all start to feel the same. could use more variety.
I have to admit, I'm a sucker for the underdog. I prefer to patronize the small, local shop instead of the national chain when I can. I love the movies where the little guy comes out of nowhere to save the day. At a baseball game, I'll gladly switch...

Pros: Great vocals, Competent piano performances Cons: Average Lyrics, Repetitive Sound, Lack of Passion
When I first heard Norah Jones' song "Don't Know Why" it was three months after I had been in Media Play, talking with an associate about wanting to hear new artists. He recommended "Come Away With Me" by Norah Jones which was on sale that week for ...
Pros: A beautiful voice, delicate piano playing, and some good tunes to boot! Cons: Three tempos: Slow, slower, and slowest.
Norah who? Who are you, and why haven't I heard of you already? Seriously, this 23-year-old wunderkind just kind of shows up out of nowhere with a debut video on MTV2 that literally knocks my socks off and makes me rethink my self-imposed musical...

Pros: lovely, sensual vocals Cons: needs more styles of song
I have to admit to being skeptical when this disc first came out. I began to read a lot of buzz about a new jazz singer that was setting the world on fire. Fearing that Diana Krall would get jealous if I took a shine to a younger jazz singer ...
Pros: Indeed, this is an album of poetic collection.
Cons: Listening to it in a bad time can put you to sleep. Believe Me
Taking a Trip As you place this c.d. in your stereo. You sit and listen and feel as though you are suddenly taking a trip to the past. As if in a blink of an eye, you now find yourself in an old caboret style restaurant, dim lights and ...
Pros: Several of the tracks are ok, and enjoyable. Cons: Alas, too much of it sounds exactly the same as the next cut.

Norah Jones' multi-million, kajillion katrillion, everybody-loves-it "wonderful piece of work" Come Away with Me is one of the biggest wastes of fifteen dollars I've ever made. It lacks passion and worthy songwriting, and for me was an incredible ...
