Norah Jones a tinge short

I love female vocals, Kd Lange, Linda Rondstat, Bonnie Ryatte to name a few. And I love Norah Jones voice, So I ran out and purchased come away with me. Though I could easily listen to it, I was a tad dissapointed in the reocording quality on CD. I could hear her mic shean (glare), tinny and a tad thin, which kept her wonderful voice from ringing clear through my Theil 3.6s. I tried some Sheryl Crow bam she was right there in my living room. I tried the Norah CD again and the sound thined and tinned. I was saddend, anybody else share this same opinion, or dissagree?

implying that you're somehow superior to me because you don't like Diana and I'm "foolish" enough do so.

Sorry Dave - good point - there is nothing foolish in listening to the vocalists that you enjoy...perhaps "beguiled" is a better term to describe the way good looking stars (like Robbie Williams for the ladies) have a sort of "magic" grip on their audiences - the persona and music seem to meld in our brains and form an intoxicating hook or image in our minds eye.

I still remember when Madonna's "Like a Virgin" and "Material Girl" videos came out - she hooked male listeners everywhere instantly...it was the whole beguiling package I guess.

>>My problem is that you just have such a condescending tone<<

Perhaps it's wise to clean your own house before looking for additional work.

I don't work out of my house...maybe you mixed a metaphor?

I get a kick out of these petty squabbles. Everyone always thinks that they are right in their thoughts, everyone else is wrong, or lacks the knowledge to know any better. Some are worse than others. I hate Celine, her voice makes me cringe. I like Norah, and I know there are others out there that are better, but I don't go saying that one is better than the other, or that there are many out there that are better, etc. They are just opinions of how I hear them, not facts.
