Noora releases her third album "Soul Deep" around Europe in 2010. The album was released in Norway in 2009 and gave Noora the Norwegian Grammy for Best Female Artist.
Noora started on her musical journey performing locally from the age of 8. She got a recording contract with Warner Music as their A&R spotted her at only 15. She began working with Stargate to make her first album. The outcome of the album launched Stargate´s international career as producers.
Her debut album 'Curious,' was released in 1999 and became one of the first real Scandinavian R&B albums. The single "Need You" was also played constantly on "The Lick" on MTV. Curious became a success also in Japan with more than 50 000 sales. It took some time before we saw release of her second album "All I Am" in 2004, as Noora became seriously ill.
Noora's third album was titled "Soul Deep". The album takes Noora back to the roots of soul music and is more a Stax sound than Motown. The album was produced by guitarvirtuoso Kid Andersen in San Jose, California. Her reviews for the record in Norway were top of the dice with 6/6 in VG - Norway's largest daily newspaper.
Noora is busy recording her new album Spring 2012.

What Man Have Done
Noora Noor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Man-bombs from way up high
No man can hide no man can run
From what man have done
Man drinks the mighty rivers dry, to bring
Man cities electric lights
No man can hide no man can run
Man made the stock exchange, to give
The richer litter more pocket change
No man can run no man can hide, no no
From what man have done
Se what this world has become
Since Adam and Evie
We've run out of Eden
How much more of a man can deserve to stand
Before the story stops
We've just been crossed where man's gone wrong
No, no, no, no, no, no
Man sends his boys to war
And never tell them boys
What they're fighting for, no no
No man can hide no man can run, no, no
From what man have done
Man puts man in chains, man make
Plenty money from another mans pain, pain, pain
No man can hide no man can run
From what man have done
No man can hide no man can run, run, run, no, no
From what man have done, no, no
Ain't no runnin from the
Pain
Ain't no runnin from the
Pain
Ain't no runnin from the
Pain
Ain't no runnin from the
The lyrics to Noora Noor's song "What Man Have Done" touch on the destructive impact that humans have had on the world around them. The song stands as a powerful commentary on the ways in which man's actions have created a world full of chaos, destruction, and pain. The lyrics explore different examples of this destructive behavior, starting with man's creation of jet planes and bombs that rain destruction on the world below. The song also alludes to the ways in which humans have drained natural resources and exploited other people's pain for financial gain.
Despite the bleak picture that the song paints, it ends on a hopeful note, suggesting that this destruction doesn't have to continue. The chorus emphasizes that there's "no running from the pain," but also that this pain serves as a rallying cry for change. The song's message is powerful and moving, encouraging listeners to think about the impact of their own choices and to strive for a better, more peaceful future.
