"This album is a very pleasant surprise for me early in 2020. I didn't expect much from it, but what I discovered is a really well-balanced album, with a few really great songs and no real low point in it. I can't explain very well why I like this album, but the fact is I do. I think all the eleme..."  [+]  Reply

"The evolution of Norah Jones as an artist really is incredible. She started in the jazz/singer-songwriter genre and has dabbled in a new genre with every album: folk, country, blues, indie, alternative rock, pop, and back to jazz again in that exact order.

"Les Cowboys again cover all of their favorite territory on this album. We have a heavy dose of biting social and political commentary with 8 seconds, Plus Rien, Lettre a Levesque, Si La Vie Vous Intéresse, and the Epilogue.
