I'm not a very dark person.
Norah Jones
Image
For me making music is part social, part interaction, part collaboration.
Norah Jones
Image
It's funny how you realize what's important, and it's not fame and money, even though it can be really nice. It's happiness and whatever it takes to make you feel happy.
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
Music is fun. It should be fun. And that's the key, I think. Keep it as the thing you love.
Norah Jones
Image
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.

I remember early on, for instance, having to play wedding gigs, that I hated playing the music. Now I don't have to play music that I don't like. I only get to do what I enjoy, so that's pretty lucky.

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

Image
I'm super-fortunate to have any fans still.
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'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
It's hard for me to pry with people I know.
Norah Jones
Image
I'm happy. I feel good about music.
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
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.
Norah Jones
Image
I genuinely don't feel that anything that's been written or said about me has overshadowed my music, and that's the most important thing as far as I'm concerned.
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'm a musician because I love it and it's supposed to be fun.
Norah Jones
Image
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.

Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
