ブルーノートからのリリースで、ジャズボーカリストというレッテルを貼られてしまったが、彼女自身は不本意だったのかも知れない。このアルバムをリリースした時点では、それはNot Too Lateだったのだが。

ノラ・ジョーンズのファーストアルバムCome Away With Meを聴いた時、新たな世代のジャズボーカリストと感じだ。その後、少しずつ彼女のアルバムを買い求めるようになった。本作はセカンドアルバム。リリース5日目の売り上げが一週間で100万枚を突破。最終的に1000万枚を超える売り上げを記録(2013年の時点)とのネット情報。確かにうなずける。レーベルはBlue Note。だけど、ジャズよりかはカントリー的要素が強い。
