1). Supremely talented

2). Very subtle and understated...there's a lot going on under the surface, but she doesn't run out onto the stage screaming "HELLO CLEVELAND"

3). She's "consistently sexy"...she doesn't turn it on or off, she's just Norah Jones all the time, and she's gorgeous. Take her performance with Dave Grohl at the Kennedy Center Honors for Paul McCartney. "Maybe I'm Amazed" has always been one of Sir Paul's greatest songs, every bit the equal of ANY song he wrote while in The Beatles. It was a simple, stark, emotionally performed song that he wrote for Linda. Grohl & Jones clearly "understood" the song (watch Pauls facial expressions throughout the performance). But they also turned up the heat, and they did so without compromising what made the original so special. It's subtle, and it's on fire...just like Norah.
