Sultry vocalist and pianist Norah Jones developed her unique blend of jazz and traditional vocal pop with hints of bluesy country and contemporary folk due in large part to her unique upbringing. Born March 30, 1979, in New York City, the daughter of Ravi Shankar quietly grew up in Texas with her mother. While she always found the music of Billie Holiday and Bill Evans both intriguing and comforting, she didn't really explore jazz until attending Dallas' Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. During high school, Jones won the Down Beat Student Music Awards for Best Jazz Vocalist and Best Original Composition in 1996, and earned a second Best Jazz Vocalist award in 1997. Putting her vocal talents on the back burner, Jones worked toward earning a degree in jazz piano at the University of North Texas for two years before accepting a friend's offer of a summer sublet in Greenwich Village during the summer of 1999. Although she fully intended to return to college that fall, the lure of the folk coffeehouses and jazz clubs proved too strong and she was soon inspired to write her own songs. Jones appeared regularly with the trip-hop-electronica band Wax Poetic and assembled her own group around songwriters Jesse Harris (guitar) and Lee Alexander (bass), with Dan Rieser on drums. In October of 2000, the group recorded a handful of demos for Blue Note Records and on the strength of these recordings, Jones signed to the jazz label in early 2001. Following an appearance on Charlie Hunter's Songs from the Analog Playground, Jones spent much of 2001 performing live with Hunter's group and working on material for her debut. Come Away with Me, recorded by Craig Street (Cassandra Wilson, Manhattan Transfer, k.d. lang) and legendary producer Arif Mardin (Aretha Franklin, Dusty Springfield, the Bee Gees), was released in early 2002 and garnered much public attention. The combination of her striking beauty and the fact that she was the daughter of an internationally renowned musician placed Jones in the awkward position of defending her music from those who dismissed her as another pretty face (the same argument used by those opposed to Diana Krall) and/or another riding the coattails of her musical royal heritage (see Natalie Cole, Miki Coltrane, Corey Parker). Although not by any stretch a "jazz" album (the label chose to call it "jazz-informed"), it featured jazz guitarist Bill Frisell and session drummer Brian Blade, and indicated a new direction for Blue Note combining jazz aesthetics and talent with a pop sensibility. Come Away with Me eventually went multi-platinum, selling 18 million copies worldwide and winning Jones eight Grammy Awards. In 2004, Jones released her highly anticipated follow-up album, Feels Like Home. Pairing once again with producer Arif Mardin, Jones pursued a similar approach to Come Away with Me, mixing '70s singer/songwriter-style tracks with blues, country, and her own mellow take on piano jazz. In 2003, Jones played in a group called the Little Willies along with Lee Alexander (bass), Richard Julian (guitar/vocals), Dan Rieser (drums), and Jim Campilongo (guitar), playing covers of classic American music like Hank Williams, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson. This one-off performance ultimately turned into sporadic shows at the venue whenever their individual schedules would allow, slowly incorporating original songs into their set along the way. In time, the Little Willies began considering the release of a live album, but instead wound up documenting their sound in the recording studio. Milking Bull Records issued the resultant self-titled album in March 2006. Late in 2006, the single "Thinking About You" announced a return to her solo career. It landed on the album Not Too Late, released in early 2007. The Fall arrived in 2009, followed in 2010 by ...Featuring Norah Jones, a collection of musical collaborations. The following year Jones was asked to provide some vocals for Danger Mouse (aka Brian Burton) and Italian composer Daniele Luppi's spaghetti Western project, Rome. Burton returned the favor in 2012 by producing and co-writing the songs on Jones' fifth studio album, Little Broken Hearts. She next teamed with Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong in a project to re-create the classic 1958 Everly Brothers album Songs Our Daddy Taught Us. Recorded in nine days with bassist Tim Luntzel and drummer Dan Rieser, Foreverly was released in 2013.

Breeland & Paul F. Buskirk) When the evening sun goes down You are gonna find me hanging 'round The nightlife ain't no good life But it's my life Many people just like me Dreaming of old used-to-be's The nightlife ain't no good life But it's my life Listen to the blues they're playing Listen to what the blues are saying Oh mine is just another scene From the world of broken dreams The nightlife ain't no good life But it's my life Listen to the blues they're playing Listen to what the blues are saying Mine is just another scene From the world of broken dreams The nightlife ain't no good life But it's my life Lou Reed (Lee Alexander, Richard Julian & Norah Jones) Two and one, two, three We were driving through West Texas The land of beef and pork Where they tend the hides of leather We wear back in New York In a pasture along a roadside Behind a brokedown shack On a dusky side of evening We saw a figure dressed in black And we don't mean to sound like we're tripping But we swear to God We saw Lou Reed cow tipping Cow tipping Hey Lou, is that you She said as we pulled to the shoulder He just said, "Go screw" And then he turned and tipped one over Under a spitshine Western sky The color of blue varnish Hey, it's like Fellini Actually I'm thinking more like Jim Jarmusch And we can't say how much we've been sipping But we swear to God We saw Lou Reed cow tipping Cow tipping I got cops on the cell I said I got a little story to tell Lou Reed is in the cow pen They said, "Oh no, not again" And we hope our perception isn't slipping But we swear to God We saw Lou Reed cow tipping Cow tipping Cow tipping Cow tipping Cow tipping You really think that was Lou Reed Cow tipping I'm sure it was, he was wearing black Levi's Cow tipping I thought he was a vegetarian Cow tipping He's just tipping them over, he wasn't eating them Cow tipping Cow tipping

Attack of the rock people
I had a dream with you in it last evening Neon colored bright city mutated buildings Pink mushroom clouds You were standing in the center of town On an aqua rock A rock with blinking yellow eyes And behind the eyes were rock people Sorta like Rodin's Gates of hell And they were grinding, grinding, grinding stone And granite And their marble limbs slithered silently through veins But they weren't evil For the rock people liked having you stand over them That's why they slithered in freedom And I was off to one side playing an instrument that looked like a baby And then we were in a restaurant And we tried eating lobster But the waitress refused to serve us Because we were drinking and playing our baby way too loudly And then we were playing basketball with the waitress But purple flesh people on the sidelines kept screaming and foaming 'Cause they didn't like us dribbling our baby And then we were running, running, running, running And neither of us knew why we ran But we knew why the other ran and simultaneously Called out "Go! Go! Go! Keep it up! He can't hurt you anymore ! He can't hurt!" And then you woke up at Singapore But you called and said "Baby speaks with its hands" And I said "Fine, but I can't listen to hands" And then I awoke and I thought of you
The Best Part I see the moon in the sky I taste the soft in your eyes I'll ignore all your lies I'll chain as I go swing Breaking off and away In the scold of the cave Don't forget me I'll lay precious and mine Love is reality line Time always puts up a fight Don't forget me Lay your hand on my heart Like it was at the start That always was the best part That was the best part

Leaving London (Tom Paxton) There's a dark and rolling sea Between my love and me As I walk through this cold lonesome town As I wish for a better day I need a place to stay If it's just a floor to spread my blanket down Off and on I change my shirt Just to wash away the dirt And then it's over to American Express Not a letter do I find She didn't even send a line Though I know she has my forwarding address If I could beg, steal or borrow A ticket on some old ship or plane I'd leave old London tomorrow To fly to my own true love again Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin Last night at the Troubadour Was so full they barred the door I sang a song that she loved so well And it wouldn't take too long To make up another song About a lonesome and sad farewell If I could beg, steal or borrow A ticket on some old ship or plane I'd leave old London tomorrow To fly to my own true love again I'd leave old London tomorrow To fly to my own true love again Bull Rider (Rodney Crowell) Well first you gotta wanna get off bad enough To wanna get on in the first place And you better trust in your lady luck Pray to God that she don't give up on you

now he's buckin' mean and dirty Slingin' mud and cowboy boots and kickin' clowns No fools, no fun, bull rider, hey hey You gotta feel the way he's movin' You gotta watch his head And brace yourself for anything That render you might dead You know the art of hangin' loose is hangin' just as tight Well it's something like a hurricane dancin' with a kite Live fast, die young, bull rider, hey hey Well the rodeo is more than rough It's a fact of life and it's tough to cut and it's beaver hats It's drinking beer and pulling trailers Tight lemae on barrel racers and a horse bucking No fools, no

country and an old gan guards the home Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel For memories turns dusty old and gray Don't leave me

picked off one by one Shimmer in the streetlights And shiver in the sun Cold is so mean But what do they know They lean in the wind And sleep in the snow Bright of the spring Was eased by the chill The whisper of leaves Was suddenly still We counted the rings And tied every hole Sometimes only rest Here sick in the soul The boughs held the heart Of the avenue till We wrapped all our lives Of trees that took ill And stay here till spring And sleep in the snow And let our hearts ache For things that won't grow You'll Forget Me (Sasha Dobson) You forget me I know, you will We've had our fill for now But let's be honest And take some time To ease our mind for now Sun will rise and fall again You go, we'll fade away Don't be sorry Just smile somehow We did our best for now Rob from always

cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own You're gonna cry, cry, cry I lie awake at night to wait 'til you come in You stay a little while and then you're gone again Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin When your fickle love gets old, no one will care for you You'll come back to me for a little love that's true I'll tell you no and you gonna ask me why, why, why When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own You're gonna cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll want

The Razor Song A busted heart can carry the weight Of a man too dumb to settle down Cursing all the things that stole your silly wings Gotta keep your footsteps on the ground The city lights are hung up like the stars You'll hang your hat on anything that shines Turn your rings around Those old tricks drag you down To the bottom of the box you left behind The weight on you Set it down and let the roads do what they do The night will fall, just drive careful There's no heaven after all Bolled, tied down to the track Like a Monday morning quaterback It feels like shit to have to make a change But yoru razor's got more rust than blade So level up and leave it to the dawn Quit shaking hands with every ghost you see Let's call this night a day and turn yoru saw away From God and guts and dogeared recipes They'll wait on you While you shuffle down that broken avenue There's so much more than paradise you're saving yourself for Don't waste another good hair day on a funeral for these throwaways You'll get to where you're sitting just the same But your razor's fgot more rust than blade The weight on you Set it down and let the roads do what they do There's so much more than paradise you're saving yourself for Don't waste another good hair day on a funeral for these throwaways You'll get to where you're sitting just the same But your razor's fgot more rust
Angel Dream I dreamed you I saw your face Caught my lifeline When drifting through space I saw an angel I saw my faith I can only thank God it was not too late Over mountains I floated away Across an ocean I dreamed her name I followed an angel Down through the gates I can only thank God it was not too late Oh sing a little song Loneliness Sing one to make me smile Another round for everyone I'm here for a little while Now I'm walking This street on my own But she's with me Everywhere that I go Yeah, I found an angel I found my place I can only thank God it was not too late I can only thank God it was not too late I can only thank God it was not too late

Muzzle of Bees (Norah Jones & Jeff Tweedy) There's a random painted highway And a muzzle of bees My sleeves have come unstitched From climbing your tree When dogs laugh some say they're barking I don't think they're mean Some people get so frightened The fences in between The sun gets passed from tree to tree Silently then back to me With the breeze blown through Pushed up against the sea Finally back to me I'm assuming you got my message On your machine I'm assuming you love me And you know what that means The sun gets passed from sea to sea Silently and back to me With a breeze blown through Pushed up above the leaves With a breeze blowing through My head upon your knee Half of it's you and half is me Half of it's you and half is me

you down And the circle goes round and round and round And you can't breathe But there's light that you cannot see I know these rooms, these prison halls I've stumbled through so many times before To find the devil lurking just behind the door I don't pretend to understand The roads you've walked, how you still stand, but I I want to try to lift some of the burdens that you bear When all you want is arms around you And a whisper in your ear Saying everything's gonna be alright Even if it's not 'Cause you're only human You can only take so much before you break And it feels like you're drowning alone And the waves keep on coming and hold you down And the circle goes round and round and round 'Til you can't breathe But there's light that you cannot see Yeah, there's light you cannot see

I still want you to stay We're just ordinary people We don't know which way to go 'Cause we're ordinary people Maybe we should take it slow We're just ordinary people We don't know which way to go

American Anthem ( The War OST - Gene Sheer ) All we've been given By those who came before The dream of a nation Where freedom would endure The work and prayers of centuries Have brought us to this day What shall be our legacy What will our children say Let them say of me I was one who believed In sharing the blessings I received Let me know in my heart When my days are through America, America I gave my best to you Each generation from the plains to distant shore With the gifts they were given Were determined to leave more Battles fought together Acts of conscience fought alone These are the seeds from which America has grown Let them say of me I was one who believed In sharing the blessings that I received Let me know in my heart When my days are through America, America I gave my best to you For those who think They have nothing to share Who fear in their hearts There is no hero there Know each quiet act of dignity Is that which fortifies The soul of a nation that never dies Let them say of me I was one who believed In sharing the blessings I received Let me know in my heart When my days are through America, America I gave my best to you America, I gave my best to you

Are you lonesome tonight Do you miss me tonight Are you sorry we drifted apart Does your memory stray to a bright summer day When I kissed you and called you sweetheart Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there Is your heart filled with pain Shall I come back again Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there Is your heart filled with pain Shall I come back again Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight

Better Than Snow (Norah Jones & Laufey / Christmas With You EP) Sit by my fire I'll never leave you Look out the window Palm trees aglow Now as I sweat through My ugly sweater Christmas with you is Better than snow Drive to the ocean All through December It would be nice to Hide from the cold Then the sun warms me And I remember Christmas with you is Better than snow Christmas with you is Better than snow Watching the waves crash Down on the shore I never needed anything more Than you here beside me Jackfrost won't mind if we Stay in the heat of each other We'll build sand castles Instead of snowmen We'll bake some cookies Either way I'll take the warmest Day of the year 'cause Christmas with you is Better than snow Christmas with you is Better than snow
Black ( Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi Feat. Norah Jones ) We touched the walls of the city streets and Dead ends plain, sadly showed us our ways Of never asking why Cast down it was heaven sent and To the church, no intent to repent on my knees Just to cry Until you travel to that place you can't come back Where the last pain is gone and all that's left is black Grey nights he's coming to me and Some day they'll punish my deeds and they'll find All the crimes But then they ask when they gonna see them Then they gonna ask to feel the ghosts, the walls, the dreams Well I've got mine At last those coming came and they never looked back With blinding stars in their eyes but all they saw was black Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin Fooled them hoping to seem Like a slave of evil but the product of greed and It's not a mass so be honest with me We can't afford to ignore that I'm the disease Practical since we had to be and When they were old they came back to me and they tried Oh they tried And when you follow through and wind up on your back Looking up at those stars in the sky, those white clouds have turned it black
Black Hole Sun

Day is done
( Nick Drake Cover ) When the day is done Down to earth then sinks the sun Along with everything that was lost and won When the day is done When the day is done Hope so much your race will be all run Then you find you jumped the gun Have to go back where you began When the day is done When the night is cold Some get by but some get old Just to show life's not made of gold When the night is cold. When the bird has flown He got no-one to call your own He got no place to call your home When the bird has flown When the game's been fought You speed the ball across the court Lost much sooner than you would have thought Now the game's been fought When the party is through It seems so very sad for you Didn't do the things you meant to do Now there's no time to start anew Now the party's through When the day is done Down to earth then sinks the sun Along with everything that was lost and won When the day is done

No easy way down
Your toy balloon has sailed In the sky now, But now it must fall to the ground. Now your sad eyes reveal Just how badly you feel. There is no easy way down. The view from the cliffs Must have been exciting, And up to the peaks, You were bound. Now you're stranded alone And the past is unknown And there is no easy way down. And now it isn't very easy When you find yourself on your own. No it isn't very easy When each boat you take, Is one more mistake, There's no one to break, your fall, Lead you back home. We all like to climb To the hieights of love dear We're our fantasy world can be found But you must know in the end When it's time to decend That there is no easy way down. I know it isn't very easy, When you find yourself out on your own. No it isn't very easy When each road you take, Is one more mistake, There's no one to break, Your fall, And lead you back home We all like to climb To the heights of love dear, Where our fantasy world can be found But you must know in the end When it's time to decend That there is no easy way down. There is no easy way down.

Ride on
( Cover - AC/DC )
It's another lonely evening And another lonely town But I ain't too young to worry And I ain't too old to cry When a woman gets me down Got another empty bottle And another empty bed Ain't too young to admit it And I'm not too old to lie I'm just another empty head That's why I'm lonely I'm so lonely But I know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna ride on Ride on, ride on Standing on the edge of the road Thumb up in the air One of these days I'm gonna change my evil ways 'Till then I'll just keep dragging on I broke another promise And I broke another heart But I ain't too young to realize That I ain't too old to try try to get back to the start And it's another red light nightmare Another red light street And I ain't too old to hurry Cause I ain't too old to die But I sure I'm hard to beat But I'm lonely I'm so lonely But I know what I'm gonna do Ride on, ride on Ride on, ride on i'm gonna change my evil ways One of these days 'Till then I'll just keep dragging on I'm gonna change my evil ways One of these days 'Till then I'll just keep dragging on 'Till then I'll just keep dragging on

Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most (Demo / Ella Fitzgerald / Come Away With Me 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition) Once I was a sentimental thing Threw my heart away each Spring But now a Spring romance hasn't got a chance Promised my first dance to Winter And all I've got to show's A splinter for my little fling Spring this year has got me feeling Like a horse that's never left the post I lie in my room staring up at the ceiling Spring can really hang you up the most Morning's kiss wakes trees and flowers And to them I'd like to drink a toast I walk in the park just to kill lonely hours Spring can really hang you up the most All winter long those birds they twitter twit I know the song, "This is love, this is it!" Heard it before and I know the score And I've decided that Spring is a bore Doctors once prescribed a tonic Sulphur and molasses was the dose That didn't help a bit, my condition must be chronic Spring can really hang you up the most I'm all alone, the party is over Old man Winter was a gracious host But when you keep praying for snow to hide the clover Spring can really hang you up the most

That's the way the world goes 'round ( John Prine live cover ) I know a guy That's got a lot to lose He's a pretty nice guy But he's kind of confused He's got muscles in his head That ain't never been used Thinks he own half of this town Starts drinking heavy Gets a big red nose Beats his old lady With a rubber hose Then he takes her out to dinner And buys her new clothes That's the way that the world goes 'round. That's the way that the world goes 'round You're up one day And the next you're down It's half an inch of water And you think you're gonna drown That's the way that the world goes 'round. I was sitting in the bathtub Counting my toes When the radiator broke Water all froze I got stuck in the ice Without my clothes Naked as the eyes of a clown I was crying ice cubes Hoping i'd croak When the sun come through the window The ice all broke I stood up and laughed Thought it was a joke That's the way that the world goes 'round

Will you still love me tomorrow
( Cover - Carole King / Touch Acoustra LP - 2003 )
Tonight you're mine completely You give your soul so sweetly Tonight the light of love is in your eyes But will you love me tomorrow Is this a lasting treasure Or just a moment's pleasure Can I believe the magic in your sights And will you love me tomorrow Tonight with words unspoken You say that i'm the only one But will my heart be broken When the night meets the morning sun I'd like to know if your love Is a love I can be sure of So tell me now and I won't ask again Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow
When Sunny Gets Blue (Johnny Mathis / Come Away With Me 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition) When Sunny gets blue Her eyes get gray and cloudy Then the rain begins to fall Pitter patter, pitter patter Love is gone so what can matter No sweet lovin' man comes to call When Sunny gets blue She breathes a sigh of sadness Like the wind that stirs the trees Wind that sets the leaves to swayin' Like some violins are playin' Weird and haunting melodies People used to love To hear her laugh, see her smile That's how she got her name Since that sad affair She's lost her smile Changed her style Somehow she's not the same But memories will fade And pretty dreams will rise up Where her other dreams fell through Hurry, new love, hurry here To kiss away each lonely tear And hold her near When Sunny gets blue Hurry, new love, hurry here To kiss away each lonely tear And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
Why Can't He Be You ( Remembering Patsy Cline Tribute Album - 2003 ) He takes me to the places you and I used to go He tells me over and over that he loves me so He gives me love that I never got from you He loves me too, his love is true Why can't he be you He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind And I'm lucky to have such a guy; I hear it all the time And he does all the things that you would never do He loves me, too, his love is true Why can't he be you He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul And I should love him so, 'cause he loves me, I know But his kisses leave me cold He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love And my friends say when he's around, I'm all he speaks of And he does all the things that you would never do He loves me too, his love is true Why can't he be you
World of Trouble (The Hottest State OST / Come Away With Me 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition) It starts off slow With a kiss of folly And you don't see it As more But after awhile When all the dogs See you Sneaking In the back door You don't believe When they tell you You don't believe Then A world of trouble Is all you see Nights When the phone rings And it's so easy To get up And go back again You don't stop You don't think To live without it Knowing That you'll never win You don't believe When they tell you You don't believe Then A world of trouble Is all you see This is the last time Or the beginning Whenever you say It's enough While each day Each month Rolls out behind you The lost time Is calling your bluff You don't believe When they tell you You don't believe Then A world of trouble Is all you see A world of trouble Is all you need
Wurlitzer Prize ( Waylon Jennings tribute album ) I don't wanna get over you I'm not here to forget you, I'm here to recall The things we used to say and do I don't want to get over you I don't want to get over you I haunt the same places we used to go Alone at a table for two I don't want to get over you I don't want to get over you They ought to give me the Wurlitzer prize For all the silver I led slide down the slot Playing those songs sung blue Help me remember you I don't want to get over you A fresh roll of quarters, same old song Missing you through and through I don't want to get over you I don't want to get over you I don't want to get over you I don't want to get over you
