More quotes by Joss Stone
People started saying I was ignoring my country, making up stories about me. Ludicrous things, like that I throw tea on my assistants.
Joss Stone
People say I'm the white Aretha Franklin. I wish I was her.
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
I made my new album 'Colour Me Free!' in a week with my own money.
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
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.
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
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
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
The British press has been unfair to me and the public has followed.
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 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
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
If you give yourself too much time, you kind of over-obsess about the music. It's not supposed to be like that.
Joss Stone
Who says soul has only one colour?
Joss Stone
It strikes me as weird that a 25 year old man would even find a 16 year old attractive.
Joss Stone
The musicians one day are going to listen to me.
Joss Stone
I feel so, so lucky. Lucky because of many things.
Joss Stone
It's nice to know that you're worth something and music really does put that kind of light back into you. Well, it does for me anyway. I've been through some very interesting times in my life and there is certain songs that I go to and I'm like, ok, it's not that bad.
Joss Stone
The only country that hasn't liked my music is my own.
