Confession: I only like Norah Jones because so many others told me to


Norah Jones is the darling of Jazz and Audiophile press for a few years.  I've heard her albums, maybe even bought one.  Look, being a musical artist is hard as hell and I can't do it, but I realize in listening to others talk about her that I'm missing something special while listening to her.

Please, without wanting to pile on her, if you love her tell me why.  What has you going about Miss Jones that makes her a standout? No wrong answers.

I like her, but only come back to listening to her every 3-6 months, or so.

Perhaps a bit too understated for my taste and my wife, not me, purchased her CD so otherwise I would probably not own it.

Loved her father, especially after playing a sitar throughout the summer of 1971 when in Hawaii without a guitar, so this may factor in.

Funny in that I'm listening to "A meeting by the River" Cooder/Bhatt as I type this.

Johnto:

That's the album I have, but will look into her other workings as I have not listened to them.
