Advantages: The voice of Norah Jones is beautiful and the music really is different.

Disadvantages: The songs do sound quite similar.

Feels like home by Norah Jones really is a beautifully written album and I find it to be very relaxing to listen to. I bought this album for £12 from Virgin and you can get it from a whole range of online stores such as Amazon. This album was released in 2004 and is the second album by Norah Jones. I really found this album to be of a different style than I have ever heard before and it really is something different which is what I like most about it.

The album itself contains 13 very well produced tracks that are all very much of a Jazz type genre. The album includes the very famous and popular "Sunrise" which has a beautiful introduction with a great piano and guitar melody. What I love most about this album is that Norah Jones really does have the most beautiful voice and I just love it. The album is also of a very acoustic sound with very nice vocal backing.

Songs such as "These sweet words" really are very easy to listen to and they contain very powerful lyrics and very ctachy lyrics. It is great to listen to when doign work for example and general stress relief because the songs are just so calming. "In the morning" is generally a slow tempo song that like the rest of the album is beautifully written and is very Jazz orientated.

I did find throughout the album that all of the songs are of a very similar style and whilst I like almost every song, the album is not that diverse and lacks vareity in the music. " Be here to love me" is a great romantic song which has a good guitar solo towards the end. However, I do really like "Creepin in" which is a much faster tempo than the rest of the album and I found it much more exciting to listen to, it makes it sound like a really cool American country music!

Overall I really find to this album to be absolutely lovly and the lyrics really are beautiful. You cannot help but appreciate the true beauty of Norah Jones voice and for that alone I believe that this album is well worth getting and I would really recommend it as a result! There are some excellent songs within this album such as "Sunrise and "Creepin in" which make it an excellent album. I hope this was useful and thank you very much for reading this!

Summary: A lovely album that really is a pleasure to listen to, so I would really recommend it!
