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 just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.
Norah Jones
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
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
I feel like all the songs are little scenes, different angles, of the feelings that come around something ending.
Norah Jones
I got stood up by the letter Y, he was hanging around with his X.
Norah Jones
Your limitations create your sound.
Norah Jones
I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.
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
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
I'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
Norah Jones
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.
Norah Jones
A song will keep going round in my brain and keep me awake.
Norah Jones
I'm not a very dark person.
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
If I were a painter I would paint my reverie If that's the only way for you to be with me
Norah Jones
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.
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
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
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
I'm super-fortunate to have any fans still.
Norah Jones
