I'm happy. I feel good about music.
Norah Jones
Image
I like to be in control of things.
Norah Jones
Image
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.

I don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.
Norah Jones
Image
I feel like all the songs are little scenes, different angles, of the feelings that come around something ending.
Norah Jones
Image
Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
Norah Jones
Image
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.

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.

Norah Jones
Image
There's a lot of personal stuff that can go into songwriting but there's also a lot of dramatization and fictionalization. You have to do that to make a good song.
Norah Jones
Image
I make a good fried chicken.
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 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 got stood up by the letter Y, he was hanging around with his X.
Norah Jones
Image
Breaking up is just hard, even if you're the one breaking up. It's not fun. It can be dramatic and complicated. And then you get a little distance and you think, why did it have to be so complicated and dramatic?
Norah Jones
Image
I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.
Norah Jones
Image
I wasn't a trained Mickey Mouse club performer. I played in jazz clubs and restaurants.
Norah Jones
Image
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.
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
Sometimes when you're trying to do a record too close to home, you can get really distracted.
