It turns out that 12-year-olds (at least this 12-year-old) don't listen to Nora Jones.
I'm sorry Lon, I don't want to pick on you, but I'm amused that this comes as a surprise to you, considering how aggressively Norah Jones is marketed to the middle-aged, Starbucks-frequenting, NPR-listening demographic. What you said is the precise equivalent of someone 50 years ago expressing surprise that the kids aren't listening to Bing Crosby.
Personally, I'm more surprised -- well, not surprised, exactly, but saddened -- that so many on this list are so insular and secure in their tastes that they are completely disconnected from the musical culture at large. And proud of it, to boot. Who's calling who musically illiterate, again?
