Norah Jones is known worldwide for her soothing, earthy music -- but she didn’t initially handle success with quite as much ease. When her 2002 debut album Come Away With Me shot to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and won the Grammy Award for album of the year, she wasn’t ready for it. “When it happened, it was nice, but scary,” she told The Independent. “In fact, it was overwhelming.”

As her profile only grew for her preternaturally calming jazz-pop, she toyed with the idea of leaving it all behind. “Okay, how do I have fun doing this, because I’m this close to saying: fuck all this, goodbye,” she told her former manager on the Come Away With Me tour.For all the fully formed beauty in her debut, she made jazz purists run faint -- and she took their criticism to heart. “They call me ‘Snorah,’” she protested to Mojo’s Will Hodgkinson. “But Jesus, that slow music touches people!”

That resonance with her adult-contemporary audience won out. She hasn’t just stayed the course as a torch singer: she’s swerved in and out of the genre with both hands skillfully on the wheel. Her rootsier 2005 follow-up, Feels Like Home, was no sophomore slump, but just as good as the debut. On excellent later albums like 2009’s The Fall and 2012’s Little Broken Hearts, she broke beyond the old formula, working with outside-the-box producers like Danger Mouse and Jacquire King to bring new dimensions to her sound.

She eventually returned to the style of Come Away With Me with 2016’s Day Breaks. Instead of retreading the old sound, Jones emerged as twice the artist, trading solos with cats like Wayne Shorter and Dr. Lonnie Smith with personality and poise. It hit No. 1 on the Top Jazz Albums Chart and No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

In honor of Jones’ 40th birthday (March 30) and the impending release of her seventh studio album, Begin Again (April 12), here are her 15 best songs, ranked.

15. “Young Blood” (The Fall, 2009)Not a lot of lyrical meat on this one, with references to being “on fire” and “finding your bliss.” But this advance single from her 2019 album Begin Again offers a feeling almost never found in Jones’ songs: liberation. No genuflection to jazz tropes, just a lovely sub-bass groove and some fluttering trumpet. Perhaps Begin Again will do just that.///+///+ I have no words, as I do not own the copyright for this wonderful music album,if society and administration consider that I am a copyright violator I will delete it and remove it, from my channel, my deep respect and great thanks!!!
