Saw her on that iTunes Festival thing in England. This album did not translate well in a live setting. Lame as hell. She had no stage presence. Still, the album cover's quite yummy. |

She was in the movie Ted as herself. She has a great sense of humor - doesn't seem to take herself too seriously.

This whole album is really great. A gorgeous instrumentation, memorable melodies, simple but evocative lyrics, and her steamy voice. I agree, that Miriam is a stand-out on this album. I think it seems like the perfect follow up to her work on "Rome" with Danger Mouse...

No matter how "edgy" this tune, I still classify her music with Kenny G.  |

I say goodbye to the lazy, dreamy...safe 'smooth jazz' style and hello to the nice, slightly edgy Norah.

I was gonna give this a 7...but I bumped it up to 8 because she looks so hot on the cover. Very good album.

I think the truth is there is some musically snobbery going on with Journey, it's as enjoyable as this. I don't think it makes me a snob for me to feel that Journey is one of the worst bands in the history of recorded music - pre- or post- "Wheel In The Sky". Don't even ask about Foreigner. This song's quite likable. |

Thank goodness for this new direction Ms. Jones is taking. It has more personality and oomph. Hope she doesn't stray back to the safe blandness in which she's usually wallowing.

I'm diggin' this latest from Norah. Love the different direction, that gal has the good goods, 4 shore.
I heard some folks critique that this album is a bit over-produced. I see/hear what they're referring to, but I kinda like it. It still retains its funk, which overproducing usually eliminates.
Groovin out here...

I am rather liking the new direction Miss Jones is taking lately. RP have played a few cuts off this album and every one have made me sit up and look. Another click to Amazon, another click for RP.
