Was at a fren's place for pot luck and while the folks are all cooking, I had a good time listening to the good hi-fi system DYI by my fren...
and that's when I got introduced to Norah Jones' Come away with me... with music coming from the hi-hi it's really really different... i tried listening to it using my headphones... music is still good but the depth of the voice vis-a-vis the music is not there... somehow the whole song sounded... 'flat'?
haiz but my room is too small to install hi-fi... lolz... hmm heard there are small good speakers... but how to make my room sound proof... else the music would surely disturb others when I listen to music at night... and of course the cost as well... lolz...hmm but imagine having a great hi-fi, air con-room, glasses of wine and plates of cheese, turn down the lights... waaaahhhhh! (and yah I just finished my bottle of caramel Baileys... means I have another bottle of original Baileys and another bottle of coffee liquer left...zzzz 2-3 more mths stock?)
oh and yah... I prefer Norah Jones' voice to others... heard a few more disc by other singers... hmm personal preference bah I guess...

I'm not a huge fan of Norah though i do like a few of her songs. she was in town for a 1-nite only concert on 2005 & i ws fortunate enough to hv free pass to it. That ws the 1st time i heard her song 'Come away with me'. She sang it live and it was really nice, not flat like u described it. maybe u can try finding a live version n listen if that's better. =]
Heh it sounded flat only when I'm using earphones...
