Gunbei, I can see where you would feel that her voice is strange, because it is. She is definitely not in the "seductive" league of Diana Krall and the likes. What caught my attention was her words in some of her songs and her ability to uniquely change keys and follow the tune with her different voice fluctuations. There's a blues song where you'd swear she had some New Orleans soul in her. If her father is Ravi Shankar, isn't he the one who was so influential on the Beatle's music, especially George with his use of the Sitar ?
Here's a "must have" for you female vocalists fans
My daughter brought home a CD by an artist named Norah Jones on Capitol Records called "Come away with me". This is a definite addition to your CD collection.This young attractive woman has a very seductive and sensual voice. The production is very well done,with close-miking on Norah's voice and piano.I think this lady will be much appreciated by the Diana Krall fans.I'm not comparing the two as each has her own unique style.I would like to hear what you all think about her.The title cut"Come away with me" is especially lovely.

yes she is totally overexposed and that comes from being in "that age group" the record company will make a boat load of cash off this album and when the next one or two do not sell she will be dumped. Because she is getting attention from some of the wrong areas (MTV) this hype will not last in that demographic. When an artist hits right away a record company expects everything to be gold but that can not sustain. |
Apparently there are some real issues with the quality of the recording. http://www.musicgearnetwork.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=3;t=004715 |
