Her presence hasn't changed at all since I first saw her at HOB New Orleans in 2002.

I've got three of her albums. I recall some review (Stereophile?) when she first burst on the scene in 2002 prompted me to buy her "Come Away With Me" album. Great voice indeed!
Picture from my foobar2000 album listings.
Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club! USN (RET), COTEP #192
Definitely one of my all time favorites from Nora Jones tunes, Don't Know Why, love it!

I've always loved her arrangements of Cold, Cold Heart.

She only appears comfortable while she's singing and playing. In between songs, especially when she talks to the audience or the camera, she comes across as shy and a bit awkward. I have always appreciated that about her because she seems more genuine and down to earth than many other artists.

I've got two of her albums. I find her "Man of the Hour" lyrics funny...
"It's him or me" That's what he said But I can't choose between a vegan And a pothead So I chose you Because you're sweet And you give me lots of lovin' And you eat meat And that's how you became My only man of the hour
You never lie And you don't cheat And you don't have any baggage tied To your four feet Do I deserve To be the one Who will feed you breakfast, lunch, and dinner And take you to the park at dawn Will you really be My only man of the hour
I know you'll never bring me flowers But flowers, they will only die And though we'll never take a shower together I know you'll never make me cry
You never argue You don't even talk And I like the way you let me lead you When we go outside and walk Will you really be My only man of the hour My only man of the hour My only man of the hour Ruff !
She has a great voice and I've heard her before but had no idea how popular she has been. I googled the name and she has sold 50 million albums so I guess I'm late to the party.
I always thought that Norah Jones wrote Don't Know Why Because it fits her style so well. I was surprised to find out it was written by Jesse Harris
I think they actually performed it together once

I really like Norah Jones.
One of my favorite songs is "Deceptively Yours" that she did with the Peter Malick Group. It is so different from her usual style.
