More quotes by Norah Jones

Nobody was listening when I learned how to play music. But there's something about being on stage, talking to the audience, looking at them and smiling, that's always been difficult for me. I'm a lot more comfortable now, but there are still moments of awkwardness.
Norah Jones
Image
I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.
Norah Jones
Image
My mom and I have always been very close. She is my best friend. She had to make a lot of sacrifices early on in my life to make sure I got to do what I wanted to do.
Norah Jones
Image
I like to be in control of things.
Norah Jones
Image
Don't go chasing after butterflies, when everything you want is right by your side.
Norah Jones
Image
I'm happy. I feel good about music.
Norah Jones
Image
I like records that flow really well and you don't have to skip around because there's lot of different jumps.

Your limitations create your sound.

What I was going for in the first two albums I didn't necessarily achieve. Because I was young and because it was my first time out. And the second album was such a 'quickie' sort of 'Let's just get it over with!' But the kind of music I make, there's a lot of subtlety in it. And I think it takes a couple of listens to actually really get it.

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
Image
I always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.
Norah Jones
Image
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
Image
I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
Norah Jones
Image
I've been told the weirdest things: 'Yeah, I love taking a bath to your music!' or 'I gave birth to my daughter while listening to your music.'
Norah Jones
Image
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.
Norah Jones
Image
I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.
Norah Jones
Image
Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.
Norah Jones
Image
I would love to make a real jazz album someday because I never have. But that's something I'm not in a rush to do.
Norah Jones
Image
I just want to keep making music, recording and trying different things. I don't want to do the same thing all the time.

Sometimes when you're trying to do a record too close to home, you can get really distracted.
