Feels Like Home (CD+DVD) Reviews:
I Love Norah Jones 
2008-10-28 - What can I say, after purchasing one Norah Jones CD I just had to come back to the well. Her music is wonderfull.
exceptional talent
2008-01-29 - I would highly recommend Norah Jones` Feels Like Home (CD+DVD). I feel that if the original artists who wrote and played some of these pieces could be here today and listen to this girl and her band play that they would be extremely impressed. Furthermore, the newer material displayed is of equal caliber as well.
I am addicted
2007-07-06 - For 3 months, my Norah Jones CDs have taken over my car stereo. This woman is very talented!
The voice of a Angel... 
2007-07-05 - You can tell I am smitten by her singing. I absolutely loved "Come away with me". Can't remember how many times I have heard that album. This CD to wasnt quite at that level, but still incredible. The Song 'sunrise' is phenomenal. Buy this pack, for the DVD is a nice bonus! Highly recommended CD.
At list price, overpriced. At the club price, a good value.
2006-03-21 - At the time of this writing, there is an option to buy this Deluxe Edition at the "club price" of $7.99. I happen to own the club edition, and I never bought the original CD, so I didn't end up buying most of the music twice.
What you get over the non-Deluxe original release is three extra songs and a bonus DVD. The DVD is pleasant, with four performances from a Madrid concert and two music videos. Also included is a 17-minute Norah Jones interview. All of this is non-essential, in my opinion, although Norah's live version of the Gram Parsons song She is a great addition to her expanding repertoire of country-tinged material.
On the audio CD, two of the three bonus cuts also have a country flavor. Moon Song is superior to those two. It is a sweet little tune that should have been on the original release, as a bookend to Sunrise. Why wasn't it?
Oddly, the sound quality of the bonus cuts is more brilliant, dynamic, and immediate than the cuts from the orignal CD release. Puzzling. You may not notice, but careful listening will reveal that this is true.
Norah's debut was not exactly jazz. But it was more jazz-influenced than Feels Like Home, which tilts toward the folk and country side of the musical spectrum. I cannot give this album five stars for that reason. Norah's talents are greater in the jazz-influenced arena, even though she has an obvious affection for other musical styles as well. I think she would do well to choose more cover songs, rather than originals written by herself and bandmates. They are good songwriters, but not great songwriters. Chances are you'll find yourself getting bored of these tunes quicker than the songs on Come Away With Me.
At the right price, the Deluxe version of the album is the obvious choice. Three extra songs and six videos cannot justify the list price, though.
