Hey, look, an obvious trolling headline in the Music section. Wow, that's never been done before.

Subby stupidity aside, damn that woman has a beautiful voice.

I'm listening to it right now, so I'm getting a kick...

It's a Norah Jones album, what did you expect?

See if it reminds you of anything....

She's cute as hell too...

Buying it tonight. Thanks for reminding me, Subby.

I'd "sleep" with her!

/If you get my drift.
//Giggety.

It's definitely one for the Amazon best sellers list/Gray's Anatomy/Oprah crowd.

Actually, it's already #2 over at Amazon. So there.

So fark dumps on manufactured auto-tuned pop tartlets AND women who write their own music and play instruments.


So fark - what female musical artists DO you like?


/I know the answer - the ones with big boobs.

Not impressed-ah

She's 30? Her pictures make me feel kinda pedo.

Gangway Fathead: So fark - what female musical artists DO you like?

Don't like them, either. I like the ones that make me a sammich.

What a bummer.

You make a strong point. I haven't given Ms. Jones a listen, but maybe I ought to. My own favorite female musicians have alluring voices, write damn good songs, and are sufficiently good-looking for me to fall in love with.

Suzanne Vega, Grace Potter, Fiona Apple, and Beth Gibbons (of Portishead) are some examples.

Fark music fans: should I bother with Norah Jones?

Oh.Hell.Yes.

Her sister is cute, too.

Oh great....another 2 years of hearing her sing everytime I walk into a STarbucks.

I listened to some of this earlier today on NPR, and it seems that she's decided she'd like to be Rosanne Cash.

I can't listen to Norah Jones while I drive, because I'll fall asleep, and flip my car, resulting in death.

litespeed74: Oh great....another 2 years of hearing her sing everytime I walk into a STarbucks.

So don't walk into Starbucks.

Go to Dunkin, you fruitcup.

I never joined her cult and have no idea what the fuss is about.

Do want.

It's about her being gorgeous, having a great voice, and not being completely pretentious about either.

Granted, she plays jazz infused music, which some farkers can't stand.

E String - Unless your ok with slow piano jazz, I would recommend her stuff she's done with other people as an intro. She's done a few side projects that are more uptempo.

Gangway Fathead: litespeed74: Oh great....another 2 years of hearing her sing everytime I walk into a STarbucks.

So don't walk into Starbucks.

There's got to be a better solution than that.

At least the Starbucks will sort of keep you awake. You're not supposed to be able to look right through coffee as it were weak tea, yet that is the standard muck you will find at DD. Go there while Norah's playing on your car radio and you might be facing charges for vehicular manslaughter at some point.

/didn't realise Norah Jones was a chancre until I wiki'd her just now.

E String, as stated above - her solo stuff leans towards slower jazz (although the new album is more 'mainstream' sounding). If you want a more, I guess, bluegrass-y sound, check out her work with The Little Willies - it's quite good indeed.

Link (NSFW) Chancre?

Try her:



Norah Jones is just a different version of Diana Krall, she is a very successful easy-listening musician. The face that she writes her own music and plays an instrument doesn't really impress me. That should be an expectation.

Fiona apple? Are you nuts?

An-Unnecessarily-Long-Name: Fiona apple? Are you nuts?


Here is the video for her song "Limp". Please explain to me why this is not a well-written song executed with competence and artistic vision. Go on, I'll wait. And please, don't tell me that the 25 seconds prior to the drums kicking in tested your patience.

Moreover, here is the video for her breakout single, 1997's "Criminal". How is this not a damn good song from a sexy and talented 20-year old girl?

I'll tell any dude who will listen that Fiona Apple's album "When the Pawn Hits..." is a great record, and playing it will win you the affection of any worthwhile college girl.

I buy anything Nora Jones does!! Her and Alison Krauss are my favorites!!

An-Unnecessarily-Long-Name: Fiona apple? Are you nuts?

Fiona Apple had a decent set of pipes, interesting phrasing, good pop sensibilities, and could write coherent lyrics. That's already head and shoulders above 80% of the singers out there.

Pocket Ninja: Subby stupidity aside, damn that woman has a beautiful voice.

And a famous musician father, which probably helped her career a great deal. Not that she's a bad musician, but...

I dont think she can sing real well. but then again Ive never seen her sing live. She is a great writer. Ill admit to that.

Nothing says Party like Norah Jones! YEEAOH!

And please, I was once doing customer support where the waiting melody was Enya. All Enya, all the time. And even the call agents had to listen while they were transfering the call...

Norah has a lovely voice, but yeah, i get tired of the same song over and over. Fiona is far more dynamic.

Norah is great for playing over the PA of a bookstore or hotel lobby.

zzzzzzzzzzzz

litespeed74: Oh great....another 2 years of hearing her sing everytime I walk into a STarbucks.

Anyone else seeing the double edged pomposity of that statement? Too snooty for Norah Jones, yet going to Starbucks? Has your head exploded from being so hypocritical?

mishmashmusic: Not impressed-ah

The wonderful & frightening world of Norah Jones. Lol

ADHD kiddie jokes are so ADHD.

Nothing says garbage quite like MADtv either though.

Its like SNL, except SNL used to be funny.

Norah Jones is still amazing.

You want music that'll cure insomnia, try Cobie Calliat's 1st album. By track #10, I couldn't get my head off the pillow.

I don't care how much everybody blasts the subby's headline, I have to agree. One time I was listening to one of her songs on a roadtrip to KC and I was drifting off halfway through the song. Her voice is like a seconal & a double shot of whiskey - not that this is a bad thing.

Never heard enough of her to really get into it, but I really like Chasing Pirates.

I used to love going to parties and telling girls that "Paper Bag" was my favorite Fiona Apple song. Because it was true. :)

Well, I know the CD mom's gonna want for this year. Oddly enough, I prefer the music of Norah's dad.

radioman_: I never joined her cult and have no idea what the fuss is about.

She's cute, seems to be a nice person, has a good voice, is musically competent, and her music doesn't completely and totally suck.

This is the best we can do with popular music these days, folks. Sad.

I used to have a huge crush on Norah Jones. My sister called me one night to tell me Norah was sitting at her bar. It was all I could do not to get up and walk out on the girl I was having dinner with... somehow I never ended up acquiring her (Norah's) first album, even though I dig the blues/jazz/folk thing...

...she will be mine, oh yes, she will be mine...
