Yes yes…my music taste is very eclectic these days. But Norah Jones has always been one of my favourites, one of my three angels as I call them…the other two are Katie Melua and a Swedish singer by the name of Lisa Ekdahl.
When I get struck by any of them - I can't stop listening for hours…or days. And let's face it, is there anything better than Norah Jones on a Sunday afternoon? Fresh coffee, a good book, and Norah Jones. Perfect.
Anyhow - there was no 'offcial topic' so I created this one. What do people think? Any fans? What do you think about Little Broken Hearts? In fact, before listening to the new Bowie, I thought it had something of Bowie. Bit of a concept record, slightly gloomy. Miriam must be one of the sickest songs ever recorded by a mainstream pop artist. And Air France has it currently on heavy rotation when the plane takes off or lands. Obviously, no one listened to the lyrics cause some people might have freaked out.
Her cover of 'The Long Way Home' by Tom Waits is absolutely magnificent. One of my favourite all time covers.
So, before I go on rambling and rambling here. What do people think?
