Norah Jones Popular Songs Ranking [2025]

Don’t Know WhyNorah Jones1rank/position

Norah Jones – Don’t Know Why

Norah Jones is a jazz singer who enjoys great popularity in Japan as well.

When you hear “jazz,” it might feel a bit intimidating, but her work is different.

She’s known for jazz that incorporates mainstream pop elements, making all of her songs notably easy to sing.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is Don’t Know Why.

It has a laid-back, pastoral vibe, and its vocal range is narrow—mid2 B♭ to high B♭—with very gentle rises and falls in the melody.

The latter half of the chorus tends to slip into falsetto, so if you’re not comfortable with head voice, consider adjusting the key with that section in mind.

Come Away With MeNorah Jones2rank/position

Norah Jones – Come Away With Me

A jewel-like ballad whose sweet melody echoes through the silence and seeps into the depths of the heart.

Crafted by American artist Norah Jones, this song delicately portrays a longing to run away with a loved one.

The protagonist’s desire to escape the city’s clamor and a world full of falsehoods, and to seek quiet time for just the two of them, is conveyed alongside the warmth of the piano’s gentle lines.

Released as a single in September 2002, it was also featured on the soundtrack of the film Maid in Manhattan.

It’s a classic you’ll want to play on a nighttime drive, during a quiet afternoon, or whenever you wish to spend time with someone special.

Shoot the MoonNorah Jones3rank/position

Shoot The Moon

Nora Jones is a singer-songwriter with a healing voice.

Her soft, jazz-tinged songs, sung in a wistful, husky tone, are something only she can express.

One of her classic songs about the moon is “Shoot the Moon.” It’s a song about a love that didn’t come true.

The title phrase “shoot the moon” is an idiom meaning to aim impossibly high.

It’s a track that lingers on the loneliness of a love that reached too high and fell short.

The song is included on her debut album, Come Away With Me, released in 2002.
