Little Broken Hearts is Norah Jones’ 5th solo effort and details different responses to heartbreak such as leaving (“Say Goodbye” and “Out on the Road”) or even murder (“Miriam”). Danger Mouse produced and helped Jones write the album to amazing effect. They truly used the past the move her music forward in several tracks deep in a 60s groove such as “4 Broken Hearts,” while others are so simple and straightforward they could have been on Come Away With Me, her critically acclaimed and wildly successful first album.
