Se podría creer que por ser caribeña y llevar el "guaguancó" en la sangre, tal vez debería gustarme sólo géneros alegres como la salsa, el merengue, la cumbia. Pero no, disfruto escuchar algunos géneros más suaves, íntimos, como el bolero, el jazz, el soul. En lo personal, me encanta escuchar la música de Norah Jones con buena compañía, mientras saboreamos una copa de vino, comiendo quesos y aceitunas. Creo que si los ángeles escuchan música, seguro escuchan jazz y soul.

Claro, también disfruto escuchar a Norah cuando estoy sola, mientras hago comida o camino sin rumbo por la casa. Con su música recuerdo que soy frágil, vulnerable, que en algún momento me rompí y alguna astilla mía quedó clavada en alguien. Me pasa, con algunos tipos de música, que recuerdo mucho, rebobino el casete de la vida y sonrío sola. Y mi abuela decía que el que ríe sola, de su picardía se acuerda.

Para el final dejé esta pieza, mi preferida. Sin lugar a dudas, la voz de Norah Jones envuelve, provoca un éxtasis sensorial que sólo se puede alcanzar con la buena música. "Sunrise" es para mí la prueba de que se puede cambiar la narrativa del mundo.

Una vez leí que escuchar buena música, es tener la certeza de la existencia de Dios y yo digo que escuchar la música de Norah Jones es mirar a Dios con los ojos cerrados.

Three songs by Norah Jones
Hello, friends around the world. Hello, music lovers on Hive. Today is Tuesday, and as everyone knows, Tuesdays are for listening to and sharing great music on this incredible platform.
A few weeks ago, I started sharing with you three songs by the female singers I most enjoy listening to. Like any selection, mine is very personal and subjective. They may not be the best singers in the world, but they are the ones I listen to when I most need to relax, dance, sing, or even work.
Today, I invite you to listen to one of the most sensual and beautiful voices in the world of music. The daughter of artists and sister of an artist, she couldn't be any different. Let's listen to the incomparable Norah Jones.
Born in the United States, educated at the University of North Texas, where she studied piano and jazz theory, and winner of many Grammys, Norah Jones has been a must-see reference when talking about contemporary jazz since 2002.
You might think that because I'm Caribbean and have “guaguanco” in my blood, I should only like upbeat genres like salsa, merengue, and cumbia. But no, I enjoy listening to some softer, more intimate genres, like bolero, jazz, and soul. Personally, I love listening to Norah Jones' music in good company, while we savor a glass of wine, eating cheese and olives. I think that if angels listen to music, they surely listen to jazz and soul.
Of course, I also enjoy listening to Norah when I'm alone, while I'm cooking or wandering aimlessly around the house. Her music reminds me that I am fragile, vulnerable, that at some point I broke and a piece of me got stuck in someone else. With some types of music, I remember a lot, I rewind the cassette of life and smile to myself. And my grandmother used to say that those who laugh alone remember their mischief.
I saved this piece, my favorite, for last. Without a doubt, Norah Jones' voice envelops you, provoking a sensory ecstasy that can only be achieved with good music. “Sonriese” is proof to me that you can change the narrative of the world.
I once read that listening to good music is to be certain of the existence of God, and I say that listening to Norah Jones' music is to look at God with your eyes closed.
