Of Norah Jones and Turning 30
Norah Jones sang to me on my birthday! Well, and to a thousand others, too. She was in Manila (Araneta Coliseum) last March 12 for a one-night concert. A few days after reading the Philippine Star article (still posted in my room's bulletin board), I scrambled towards Megamall to buy tickets. I remember telling myself I would pay anything to see Norah Jones. Hindi rin pala =). Budgetarian issues persisted over my fanatic tendencies. But hey, Bebert and I got wonderful seats! From where we were seated, Norah Jones was about as big as my thumb. Ayos na yon!
Turning 30 isn't bad at all. In fact I relished and am relishing it, if only for the lovely Miss Jones. She sounds even loveliver live than on her CDs. The woman is funny, gifted, talented, and natural. There were no airs about her whatsoever. Even that mosquito fluttering about her when she sang "The Nearness of You" couldn't help being drawn to her. Ang guwapo pa ng boyfriend (Lee Alexander, the bassist). Sorry, I should say guwafar - guwapo from afar.
