10. Turn Me On (Come Away with Me, 2003)

9. Chasing Pirates (The Fall, 2009)

“Very good album, brings the original song of Chasing Pirates, in addition to other mixes that are also good, I recommend for collection. As for the packaging, the disk was properly protected, it came correctly packed.”

8. Shoot the Moon (Come Away with Me, 2002)

“The lyrics of this song is simple, not with some highfalutin words that are hard to understand by most people. However, it is in the simplicity of the lyrics and the tune that makes me ponder and wonder the beauty of it! No matter how many times I played this song, I never get tired of listening to it. Its tempo is just soothing and has a way of momentarily drifting me to a better dream. Norah Jones is just simply amazing to make simple songs elegant in her own ingenious way.”

7. Happy Pills (Little Broken Hearts, 2012)

“What can I say? Norah Jones is a great artist. This song, however, is very different and unique. It’s got great lyrics, a great melody and a nice style to it. When I heard it on the radio, I immediately fell in love with it. The music video is equally as great and quite relevant to the song.”

6. Sunrise (Feels like Home, 2004)

“Norah Jones never fails to present an album capable of evoking a multitude of emotions from the listener. Her voice, her originality, and the not-quite-definable intensity of her music are the perfect combination for awesomeness “

5. Come Away with Me (Come Away with Me, 2001)

“Love this song, if you have someone special in your life…it simply says it all…and playing this song with Norah singing is just the best. Great Work Norah!”

4. Seven Years (Come Away with Me, 2001)

“This image of a little girl just strikes me as the essence of innocence. It reminds me of when we were all younger, less jaded, content to just sing our little nursery rhymes, those were times that we were happiest. The word meant nothing and suffering meant nothing we were just all alone in our little world. Getting back to that place is hard but once in a great while finding that place is fun even if it just for 3 minutes of a song.”

3. Young Blood (The Fall, 2009)

“Seems to me this song is about her having a fling with somebody while cheating on the person she truly loves. She burned through the town and the fling and then felt guilty about it and perhaps lost her love and wishes all of those old bones and bad decisions she made when young would go away.”

2. What Am I to You? (Come Away with Me, 2002)

“I really like this song! This is my favorite song by Norah Jones. It’s just such a chilled-out, relaxing song with such a nice vibe. It really sets a specific mood. It’s all calm, platonic and passive. It’s really nice…it’s like a massage in song form!”

1. Don’t Know Why (Come Away with Me, 2002)

“I think Norah’s singing about a lost chance with a lover. I’m thinking that she let a man that’s come into her live leave because of trepidation and now, she is slowly regretting that she didn’t “come” with to him to a lover’s paradise.”
