I feel like I've been lucky, because I don't feel like I've ever tried to be somebody I'm not. People might disagree.
Norah Jones
Image
I don't think I'm a great songwriter, but I think I've learned a lot about it, and I don't think there's any one way to do it. I don't think I can control it at all. I can just kind of hope that it happens.

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

It's hard for me to pry with people I know.

I love film, and I would love to be a part of something that people universally love as a piece of film. Sure. Of course I would. And I would love to take acting lessons, and see that side of it someday. But I'm a musician.

God bless Ray Charles. It was such an honor to meet him and sing with him and actually just to watch him sing from just two feet away.

When I moved to New York, I fell head over heels back into country music and probably 'cause I missed something about Texas.

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.

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
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.
Norah Jones
Image
I had very modest expectations when I first moved to New York. I didn't even expect to get a record deal.
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 could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
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.
Norah Jones
Image
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 should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.

I wasn't a trained Mickey Mouse club performer. I played in jazz clubs and restaurants.

I don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.

I'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
