I didn't think it was fair to my music to label me as the daughter of somebody - I didn't think it described me very well and I didn't think it had anything to do with my music.

More quotes by Norah Jones
I think singing comes most naturally for me. Because it's part of your body - it's a natural thing. You can practice all you want but it's part of your body.
Norah Jones

It's hard for me to pry with people I know.
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
I feel like all the songs are little scenes, different angles, of the feelings that come around something ending.
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
All is fair in love and songwriting.
Norah Jones
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.
Norah Jones
During my first photo shoot, I was unhappy because they put so much makeup on me and straightened my hair. I've been stubborn ever since.
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 happy. I feel good about music.
Norah Jones
I'm super-fortunate to have any fans still.
Norah Jones
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
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.
Norah Jones
