Don’t Know Why

Norah-Jones-norah-jones-65642_1024_768   The first time I heard this song on the radio back in 2003, I couldn’t wait to get the CD. Every song on the album was a gem and Norah Jones became one of my favorite vocalists.  This song was actually written by one Jesse Harris, who collaborated with Norah on her debut album Come Away With Me and won a Grammy for his efforts.

Norah Jones’ real name is Geetali Shankar.  Her father was Ravi Shankar, the virtuoso sitar player from India.  So glad she didn’t take up the sitar – such an irritating instrument.  We’re all quite happy with her jazz-piano style, thank you.

Open your second set with this and you’ll get everybody’s attention.  The midi sequence is on the Pop/Rock and Jazz/Swing lists.
