Love Ravi's daughter, Norah Jones though.
The Beatles' "Norwegian Wood" uses a sitar (though I read somewhere at the time they recorded it, George Harrison hadn't yet learned how to hold it properly).

Norah Jones was on an episode of Sesame Street and did an absolutely hilarious version of her big song. On Sesame Street it was, "Don't Know Why 'Y' Didn't Come."
