More quotes by Norah Jones
In college I had a weekend gig at a restaurant, a solo thing that was the best practice I could have ever had. That's where I learned to coordinate my singing and my piano playing.
Norah Jones
I think singing comes most naturally for me. Because it's part of your body - it's a natural thing. You can practice all you want but it's part of your body.
Norah Jones
If I were a painter I would paint my reverie If that's the only way for you to be with me
Norah Jones
I want to check the record books and see how many fathers and daughters have won Grammys together.
Norah Jones
Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
Norah Jones
I wasn't a trained Mickey Mouse club performer. I played in jazz clubs and restaurants.
Norah Jones
Sometimes when you're trying to do a record too close to home, you can get really distracted.
Norah Jones
I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
Norah Jones
I don't go about playing music differently. It changes my sleeping schedule and my drinking habits, that's what I like to say.
Norah Jones
I'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
Norah Jones
I always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.
Norah Jones
I'm in total control. I write the songs, decide what to sing and how to sing. I even control the recording process. But, with a film, there is no control at all.
Norah Jones
I like to be in control of things.
Norah Jones
Don't go chasing after butterflies, when everything you want is right by your side.
Norah Jones
I feel like all the songs are little scenes, different angles, of the feelings that come around something ending.
Norah Jones
The coolest thing I've gotten to do in the past few years is guest star on Sesame Street.
Norah Jones
Songs are about whatever you want them to be about. For me it might mean something completely different than what it means to you. So I'd say it's about whatever the listener thinks it's about.
Norah Jones
I'm a musician because I love it and it's supposed to be fun.
Norah Jones
I like my life. I like my friends. I don't want to go anywhere else.
Norah Jones
There are absolutely no problems between me, my dad and my sister. Obviously I grew up with just my mum, but my relationship with my dad is just fine.
