An older and wiser sequel, where the quiet magic of each song gets stronger with every listen.

Feels Like Home with The Handsome Band and special guests.

I am a big fan of Norah Jones. Her first album, Come Away with Me was an absolute classic. The album was certified diamond by the RIAA on February 15, 2005 having sold over 10 million copies in its first three years of release. It won five awards at the Grammy Awards of 2003, including "Record of the Year", "Album of the Year", and "Song of the Year" for "Don't Know Why".

With her second album I definitely feel she is having fun with her music and producing the type of songs that she really wants to sing as well as collaborating with artists she admires and who would not be everybody's first choice of a singing partner. It's so refreshing to see an artist who can not only sing but play instruments too. She is a wonder on the piano and it really makes her songs better and more authentic in my opinion rather than just a singer singing over backing tracks. I also really like her band. They play instruments such as the acoustic guitar, pump organ, viola and cello.

According to an article I read, Feels Like Home is the second album by jazz songwriter Norah Jones, released in 2004. It sold a million copies in the first week of its U.S. release, the first album to do so since Britney Spears' Oops!... I Did It Again (2000) and it was the second best-selling album of 2004, with about 4 million copies sold. It sold 1,920,000 copies on its first week worldwide.

Probably the most popular song from the album is track number 1, Sunrise. It won a 2005 Grammy Award for "Best Female Pop Vocal Performance" and the album was nominated for the Best Pop Vocal Album.

My favourite song on the album is actually a duet with the amazing Dolly Parton, Creepin' In. Creepin' In is has a very country type sound to it as you would expect from Dolly, it has an amazing sound to it and the voices of Dolly and Norah blend together well even though they are both so different.

The rest of the tracks are as follows:


1. "Sunrise"

2. "What Am I to You?"

3. "Those Sweet Words"

4. "Carnival Town"

5. "In the Morning"

6. "Be Here to Love Me"

7. "Creepin' In"

8. "Toes"

9. "Humble Me"

10. "Above Ground"

11. "The Long Way Home"

12. "The Prettiest Thing"

13. "Don't Miss You at All"
