Norah's music was kind of boring even for jazz album...never really got into her. Didn't know about Adele until her 21 CD, went back and checked out her 19 album and its hard to see why she didn't blow up off that album initially because its equally amazing.

Old Re: Before Adele There Was Nora Jones
This is what I've been saying all along. Before Adele, there was Norah. She fell off, and so will Adele. People will eventually get tired of her too.

But I do love "Sunrise" by Norah

Norah>>>>>> at least Norah is unique

Adele is a fat white girl with a "soulful" voice but her popularity won't last either just like Christina X. She is so overrated. Why is everyone caping so hard for her?

Never saw this much love for Leona Lewis, who can sing circles around Adele. smh

Old Re: Before Adele There Was Nora Jones
Norah Jones has some lovely songs. Sunrise being my favorite. And she didn't really fall off after her first album, she was still able to sell millions more than most other pop stars who had #1 singles to back them up.

I get the Norah and Adele comparisons, because they both had once in a lifetime type of success and they both make music heavily played on AC stations.

Was race a part of the criticism?

I just think these are both very different genres of music, but I slightly get the overrated attribution here.

I love Norah Jones music; she is a classically trained jazz musician who made that type of music very mainstream for a while. Like Herbie Hancock did for a minute, as well. I still think she is highly regarded, but shied away from being thrust in that overly hyped mainstream category. She's is most content playing on the road in a no-name lounge getting her glory. To me she is a true artist.

Adele is good, I think overrated, but still a good singer. Her album had nice songs that I really enjoyed.

How many other fat white girls do you know with 'soulful' voices? lol

Norah wasn't unique either, plenty of skinny 'pretty' Jazz singers before her with mediocre voices.
