    Probably not allowed to say this in a room of e-hipsters, but I'm really
    feelin' that new girl Norah Jones. Great voice, simple, emotional songs, and
    a piano style that fits her like a glove.

    Also, I think "Ms.Dynamite" is a better hit song than any Alicia Keys has
    delivered so far. She won a Mercury prize, which brings a question.

    The only thing I know about the Mercury is that Roni Size won one. I assume
    it's a bit like the US Grammys. Am I wrong? And what does Ms. Dynamite's
    album sound like? Is there some 2-step flavor on it?
