I do not understand why you absolutely want to compare Corinne Bailey Rae Norah Jones. Certainly because among the composer interpretres Jazz celebrated the moment, Norah Jones was placed on the highest step of the podium. It is certainly an honor to be compared to such size; However, musically speaking, the two artists are not alike at all. While Norah Jones has a Jazz style rather almost nostalgic Classic (proof with the last album Little Willies), Corinne Bailey Rae has about it a style that could be defined by opposition, Modern Jazz (with influences of Trip-Hop, Soul, Pop ...). If we really want to make comparisons, I think Corinne Bailey Rae is closer to the singer Malia (their influences are identical), although I admit that the comparison with Norah Jones remains flattering (knowing the career of the latter) .
