More quotes by Joss Stone
I've got a checklist of things I want - including a Brit, a Grammy, an Oscar and a white poodle. Sometimes it gets lonely, and I want a baby too! I'm ticking things off the list.
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
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
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
Who says soul has only one colour?
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.
Joss Stone
I'm supposed to be taking time off. But I'm still writing and I have this Gap advert lined up.
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
It's sad that people listen to music and decide how the singer should look.
Joss Stone
I don't like listening to music that isn't real.
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
I feel so, so lucky. Lucky because of many things.
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
People say I'm the white Aretha Franklin. I wish I was her.
Joss Stone
To me, music has to be about freedom. It's the most important thing in my life.
Joss Stone
I made my new album 'Colour Me Free!' in a week with my own money.
Joss Stone
When you get your first record deal, you will do anything, because you just want to sing.
Joss Stone
If you remember one thing from talking to me, remember this: I am just a girl who makes noises - and I'm incredibly lucky that people happen to like those noises.
Joss Stone
Madonna's not the best singer in the world, but she was awesome with her entertainment and all of her shock tactics and stuff and that's where it began. She then inspired all sorts of other girls to do that. But I don't know, I just think music's kind of important too. So you've gotta know where that line is especially when you are good at singing.
