COME AWAY WITH ME
By MIKE ROSS
COME AWAY WITH ME Norah Jones (EMI) A dead-on cross between Diana Krall and Emmylou Harris is one way to describe this. Maybe a little Billie Holiday, too. The singer doesn't write most of the songs on this mellow folk-jazz-pop offering, so she can't be held responsible for lines like "Like a flower waiting to bloom, like a light bulb in a dark room, I'm just sitting here waiting for you to turn me on." Geez, turn yourself on, sister. She sure sings it beautifully, though. Almost makes co-dependence sound like a good idea. Track Listing |
