I love her first two albums. Does the third one live up to the first two? I haven't been able to go to the record store to buy the album and I'm tempted to just download it off limewire but I'm a fan and she's one of my favorite singers so I feel like it's my duty to buy the original. :)

I love everything Norah Jones. Unlike the first responder, I think the second album is the best. My favorite song is "Sunrise," but I think the majority of its songs are enjoyable enough for "repeat play."
I think the third album is almost as good as the second. One of the best things about Norah is that her music is mellow without being depressing. Some of the songs are really relaxed, others have a toe-tapping beat with Norah's beautiful elec. piano riffs, still others sound like folk music. I love the second song, "Sinkin' Soon;" it sounds like bar music or something. :P I think the first song is kind of weak, but I still listen to it.
Norah doesn't have a screamer's voice, and she knows it. She's smart enough to make certain the music doesn't rock too hard for her voice to work. This being so, her music likely will always be mostly mellow. And since she's one of those rare pianist/lead singers, the keyboards will always sound good. If you love Norah, you won't hate this CD. :) Salute!

P.S.: Laughing at dumb jokes is still good for your health!!!
P.P.S.: I imagine after eight months you'd have heard the disc by now, but I thought I'd just chime in and see if it makes any sense. Hope this helps someone!
