I am not much into the music scene anymore and virtually never watch VH1 or TV for that matter. I have heard of her cleaning out the Grammy's but never listened to her sing.
Well, my son was watching VH1 and she was singing "Don't no why", I can say is WOW what a soulful voice. I have not been "touched" like that since I first heard Stevie Ray Vaughn play "Little Wing", God given talent like that doesn't come around very often and unfortunately with many their star burned brightly but was short -lived. I downloaded a few songs to make sure her voice is no fluke, I think I am going to have to buy a few cds. I have to listen to this Angel sing, She isn't bad on the eyes neither.

I like her, nice voice. Her arrangements are often sparse and go a long way towards highlighting her pipes, but she's still very talented.
I'd hit it. |

SHe came to Bethesda as part of USO to visit some of my patients. VERY NICE. Good for her to visit some of the wounded.

Norah is absolutely awesome.
If you ever get the chance, see her live. She's probably one of the greatest voices to come along in a very long time. |

In a fight between Nora Jones, Enya, and Mike Ditka...who would win?
 My wife listens to Nora Jones all the time. I feel like we live with the girl. I'll walk into the kitchen and Nora will be on the stereo. I'll ask "who's that on the stereo?" she'll say "Nora Jones, she's awesome" I'll say..."Cool, I'll be in the workshop." If I want to listen a talented vocalist, I'll throw on some Aerosmith. I don't really belong in the thread I know, just having some fun.

I really like her and I don't really like music anymore. She seems to sing to the soul or something like that. Her politics are shady but as long as I don't have to listen to them and I can just look at her and listen to her sing she is the best I have found.

Talented vocalist? Steven Tyler?
You must be kidding. The man who brough the unforgettable lyric, "Girl before I met you, well I was F-I-N-E fine..."?? Don't get me wrong... I totally dig Aerosmith (even though I think that 60 year old men in makeup is probably a bit much). But putting Tyler in the same league as Norah Jones as a vocalist is not even in the realm of possibility. |

yea and even you can hit high notes if you grab your balls and squeeze  He and most modern vocalists don't sing. They just screech lyrics. Nora actually can sing in key and tries to follow a melody. |

She's got the best voice I've ever heard on a woman. Hands down.
+1 for hitting it. She's damn fine as well, and that voice puts her way over the top. Hokie, you'd probably want to hit it too if you saw a pic. |

Yep I like her. The first album is very jazzy, but the new album has some countryish type songs that I really like also.
Id hit it, and then smoke a bowl with her dad! |

Google 'em. Even PG-rated pics will get pulled without a BOTD "warning," and I can't edit the thread title. Apparently a bunch of monks run this site.  Anyhow, here's an (albeit airbrushed) album cover. If this gets pulled or censored....

She's no Jessica Simpson, but I've hit worse. So yeah, I'd hit it. But it doesn't mean I'm gonna go profess my adoration for her vocal skills on an AR15 website! But yes, Hokie would definately hit it

Better than either of the CD's (I prefer the first) is her concert DVD. Not only for the song's and sound of the music, but there's some tasty thong shots too.
All of that, x100, would describe this lady: Eva Cassidy Most awsome female VOICE I've ever heard. Died at 33 while relatively unknown. Not a Jessica babe, but she can actually Sing. Blues, pop, standards, country, folk,... Check her out. |

I just listened to one of Eva's songs, another one who had a God given set of pipes. Too bad about her early death, seems to happen alot that the truly gifted - we only get to witness their genius for such a short time.

Please tell me you don't think Britney has talent. If you think she can sing, I think you're tone deaf. Her whole career was making grown men into pedaphiles. Now that she's legal have you noticed the sinking ship? You might have seen it, but if you think she can sing, you never would have heard it. |

I was being a smartass about Britney, all she can do is lip-sync and is not all that hot. I personlly can't stand the bitch nor her hero Madonna. To compare her to Patsy is like comparing C.C. Deville of Poison to Jimi Hendrix or a Stevie Ray Vaughn. |

If you guys wanna hear a woman with a vocal range and true ability, dig up Mariah Carey's version of "Without You" and listen to that. Gosh damn, when that first came out back in the early-mid-90's, I was blown away by her voice. That has to be one of the most impressive vocal performances by a woman I ever heard.
Now granted, much of what she has done since has sucked. But I just thought I'd list this example. But I've never heard anything from Nora that comes close, even remotely, to comparing to the above mentioned performance. And when she did that duet with Willie Nelson, I think that sealed the deal for her in my mind anyway. Again, I've heard and seen far worse. But I just don't see what all the hooplah is about Norah Jones. She just doesn't do that much for me, either visually or vocally. Perhaps it's just the style I don't like? Either way, as a vocalist, I'm just not blown away by her like some people are. -CH |

I like her voice and she's got potential in the "I'd Hit It" department.
She's a little young, though. Give her about 10 more years, to age like a fine wine, and then I'll take another look.
