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

Nope none of that overrated Diana Krall crap in my collection. 

Ravi or other classical Indian music at their homes, though many probably do have Diana Krall records. 

Rather listen to the Dead Kennedys than DK. 

If she's good enough for Ray Charles and Willie Nelson, then she's real good.  Just listen, or not listen and judge her by her music.  Trying to label her a nepo baby is misleading.

Fun little story: I once made Norah Jones cry when she was, like, four or five years old. My great aunt was a music producer and founder of Angel records and was having a get together at her apartment in New York city. My mom and I were there and I was maybe 10 years old or so. I have no idea who she or her family was. I don't know if Ravi Shankar was there, but her mom had to have been. Anyhow, dessert had been served and she had eaten her small bowl of ice cream and she wanted some of mine and I teaser with a spoon and then ate all of it in front of her and she burst into tears I imagine it totally haunted her entire musical career.

Seems like the OP, despite the title of this thread, cannot actually like Norah Jones. They can profess to like her, but no one can actually like someone because they are coerced to by the audiophile press, or other audiophiles.

To me, while I admit she is talented, she is way to ’safe’, mainstream, and traditional. While so many more talented jazz musicians, who are adding something new to the jazz art form, live in obscurity.

You caught me on account of that's exactly what I stated in the OP.
