More quotes by Norah Jones
I'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
Norah Jones
I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.
Norah Jones
I make a good fried chicken.
Norah Jones
I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.
Norah Jones
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
Don't go chasing after butterflies, when everything you want is right by your side.
Norah Jones
I really love things with melody.
Norah Jones
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.
Norah Jones
It's hard for me to pry with people I know.
Norah Jones
I'm happy. I feel good about music.
Norah Jones
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
There was an enormous amount of pressure when my first album took off, and I struggled with the speed of everything and the exhaustion from the constant touring.
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 don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.
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
For me making music is part social, part interaction, part collaboration.
Norah Jones
I want to check the record books and see how many fathers and daughters have won Grammys together.
Norah Jones
I had very modest expectations when I first moved to New York. I didn't even expect to get a record deal.
Norah Jones
I like to be in control of things.
Norah Jones
For a young artist to really make it and make money is a lot more difficult these days.
Norah Jones
