Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most (Demo)

Norah Jones is a hugely popular jazz singer in Japan as well.

Her music isn’t hardcore jazz; it incorporates elements of pop, which may be part of why she’s so beloved.

Among her works, the one I most recommend for a spring-themed piece is “Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most.” It originally began as a poem, but gained popularity after being arranged as a jazz number, and today it’s known as an orthodox slow jazz standard.

The StoryNorah Jones21rank/position

The Story

The gem-like melodies that color the film My Blueberry Nights are heartwarming pieces that beautifully fuse elements of jazz and pop.

Norah Jones’s translucent vocals and the piano’s simple yet deeply resonant lines gently envelop the film’s world.

Released in 2007, this Wong Kar-wai film features the song in both the opening and closing, adding depth to the story.

With the expressive singing only Norah Jones—who won five Grammy Awards for the album Come Away With Me—can deliver, it masterfully conveys the film’s emotions centered on loneliness, hope, and renewal.

It’s a perfect track to listen to alone on a quiet night, or when you want to reflect on memories with someone special.
