Norah Jones Lyrics

Born, May 30, 1979 in New York City, Jones was raised in Texas by her single mother, and never knew her father, Indian sitar player and Beatles associate Ravi Shankar, as a child. She discovered jazz while attending the Booker T. Washington High School For The Performing And Visual Arts in Dallas, where she won two Down Beat Student Music Awards in 1996 for Best Jazz Vocalist and Best Original Composition and one in 1997 for Best Jazz Vocalist. She then attended the University Of North Texas for two years, working on a degree in jazz piano, before deciding to take time out from her education to move back to New York. There, she formed her own band with guitarist Jesse Harris, bassist Lee Alexander, and drummer Dan Rieser.

In 2001, she signed up with Blue Note Records, EMI’s jazz imprint, and began recording her debut jazz-pop album, Come Away With Me. She sollaborated with renowned producer Arif Mardin (the Bee Gees, George Benson, Ray Charles, Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Patti LaBelle, Bette Midler, Diana Ross, Barbra Streisand, Dionne Warwick, Culture Club to name a few).
Although Come Away With Me was not an overnight sensation, Norah Jones and her album’s fame grew when it was proclaimed in January 2003 that Jones had been nominated for eight Grammys. Almost a full year after Come Away With Me's initial street date, the album hit number one on the Billboard Top 200.

Two years, eight Grammys and eight million albums later, the release of the Jones' follow-up, Feels like Home, has become a major hit, satisfying everyones' expectations.
