Norah Jones is about 20 years old & is a jazz singer (sort of) Sheââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s had about 2-3 hits & her album was no.. 1 for a few weeks early on in the year,. Sheââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s not a bad singer but I wouldnââ‚Ã⠀šÃ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t buy her stuff (not my type of music)

<Megasnip>
You've got to start introducing some punctuation into your threads. :)

1) Who is it that wishes Norah Jones to come away with him?
2) Many posters here have expressed the opinion that it would be a good thing if we did, indeed, let go of Avril Lavigne.
5) The CD cover shows a nude Christina Aguilera, does it?
6) So, Justin Timberlake is a Calvinist.

Actually punctuation or not kronas has made himself understood in this thread.He's ok when he deals in short sentences.

As long as he remembers to put in full stops in his longer paragraphs I reckon you lot should leave him alone.Otherwise it will just be harrassment to keep on this vein.Yes,I know you are only teasing but enough is enough.

Incog. :Peaceman:
