Norah Jones: I Dream of Christmas

I had no idea Norah Jones dropped a marvelous Christmas album several years ago. I have been enjoying it these past couple of days on my solo ski/snowboard trip in Stowe, Vermont. At night when the snow was falling from my motel window and I was completely exhausted from a whole day of snowboarding, the only way to relax and recharge was sipping a Vodka Orange Crush and listening to Norah Jones’ jazzy Christmas tunes. From her original compositions, including the opener “Christmas Calling (Jolly Jones) and “Christmastime,” to her invigorating interpretations of “Blue Christmas” and “The Christmas Waltz,” Jones gifted the listeners a wonderful present. I just adore her soulful rendition of “O Holy Night.” Jones knows how to make a song her own and she has succeeded with these classic Christmas tunes.
