      Bruce Wade Yeah...the fact that she is a very talented musician also means that she is exempt from engaging in any normal human activities, including being with and taking care of herself, her family and her friends. Wow, someone grew up spoiled and ungrateful of what their family does for them, and probably had to do nothing for themselves, including working an honest job to provide. The little things add up and build our characters, even something like taking the trash out. If your entire generation thinks like you, God help us all.

    I have literally no idea how you get your voice to sound so studio-perfect on a mic like this in a room like this. Speaking with my engineer hat on, you're not just a great musician; you must be an absolute delight to record with. Thank you again for sharing this.

    As always, Ms. Jones, a beautiful song to add to your wonderful home concerts we all so dearly enjoy each day. Thank you so much for your thoughtful, and so helpful, concerts to make our stay-at-home as enjoyable as possible. I don’t know how I’ll be able to continue a day when this issue returns to normal and your out and about in normal routine. You have been a light in the storm, I’m sure for many others as well, during these troubled and rough times. I look forward every day to see what you have uploaded for us today. God bless you, and your Family, for your kind soul.

      If you ever get a chance to hear the version on Rest In Peace Mrs. Columbo, give it a listen, no one can find out who sung it, no doubt it was just a Studio Singer who got no credit, but it was hauntingly beautiful, it was Woan and sounded almost like this, but Norah would have only been 11 at the time, but who knows. P.S. I am from Clanton by way of T-Town.

      @Cobb Knobbler perhaps you really don't know that music quite literally connects damaged synapses in the brain, allowing people who've had strokes, tumours removed or other major physical and brain injuries to heal? Music IS healing - not only to the soul, but quite literally to bodies. That isn't ego speaking, it's fact. You seem to be the one unable to grasp the concept of music as the universal language. Sit down, close your eyes, open your ears and LISTEN next time. It might finally connect in ways you never thought possible. For your sake, I hope so.

    I love everything about this amazing & beautiful woman.... Norah Jones sings with a soulful sound similar to Nina Simone, but with the silky smoothness of Sarah Mclachlan. What makes it all the more amazing is the fact that Norah Jones writes much of her own music. Norah's voice is so soothing and soulful, she can calm the most frayed of nerves, tame some terrible anxiety, and sing peace to the heart. Norah's songs "Come Away With Me" and "Don't Know Why" are such beautiful masterpieces, I can listen to them every day of the year, and never ever get tired of them!
