More quotes by Joss Stone
I made my new album 'Colour Me Free!' in a week with my own money.
Joss Stone
I wanted out of my record deal with EMI. They wanted me to record one type of album I wanted to record the type of music I wanted to make.
Joss Stone
If I was a person that felt success is money, and for some people it is, I won't yuck someone's yum - if that's your thing, that's your thing. Go for it. Make as much money as you can. I don't care. Not my thing. My thing is something else. So I don't miss that. At all. Who needs it? How much money do you really need?
Joss Stone
The only country that hasn't liked my music is my own.
Joss Stone
When you get your first record deal, you will do anything, because you just want to sing.
Joss Stone
I like to make sure I don't sing songs that are like self hating and feeling sorry for yourself 'cause that's not the kind of legacy I want to leave really. I want people to feel like strength, especially young women.
Joss Stone
It's not a deliberate thing. It's not like I was rejecting the UK, which is what the papers said. It's just that when you spend a lot of time in your formative years around an accent, you're going to pick it up. I had been living in LA for a bit and that's what happened.
Joss Stone
Who says soul has only one colour?
Joss Stone
The fact is when I get pissed off about something or something awful has happened, I just say, 'You know what? Thank you very much. Thank you for the lyrics. Because that is exactly what you just gave me.' There's no real negative then. So if something happens, I don't cry about it. I just find myself a pen and I figure it out.
Joss Stone
I feel like I'm a quick learner and I'm also very quick to forget. That's why I can't play an instrument because I can't bloody remember it.
Joss Stone
The musicians one day are going to listen to me.
Joss Stone
If you capture the first thought that you have when you're creating, and then play that to people, it's kind of like the listeners are part of that beginning. And that's the most exciting part.
Joss Stone
I really love art and I always have in every single different form and I just hope that I'm able to give some art that will touch some people and help them to be more positive and stronger.
Joss Stone
There's always a silver lining to every cloud and everything has to happen for a reason and if everything's really challenging, then you can make it into a positive.
Joss Stone
I like many different things you know so I'm probably going to experiment, and if I didn't I'd be a little bit strange and boring and stiff and kind of dead, and I'm very not that.
Joss Stone
There is a silver lining to every cloud and there's some awesome songs that have come from some really like bad experiences, but they're great experiences 'cause then I've got some good songs so it's all good for me.
Joss Stone
It's sad that people listen to music and decide how the singer should look.
Joss Stone
My family fight, that's the way it is. We're not common as muck or anything but we do have a little fight now and then.
Joss Stone
The British press has been unfair to me and the public has followed.
Joss Stone
I would never want something I'm wearing or the way I'm dancing or something to overshadow what I'm doing. I'd rather grab people's attention with my voice.
