More quotes by Norah Jones
All is fair in love and songwriting.
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
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
I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.
Norah Jones
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.
Norah Jones
I don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.
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
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
I make a good fried chicken.
Norah Jones

Norah Jones
I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
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
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
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
Don't go chasing after butterflies, when everything you want is right by your side.
Norah Jones
I like records that flow really well and you don't have to skip around because there's lot of different jumps.
Norah Jones
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
I had very modest expectations when I first moved to New York. I didn't even expect to get a record deal.
Norah Jones
A lot of my music is slow and subtle. The subtly is what I enjoy about making music.
Norah Jones
The coolest thing I've gotten to do in the past few years is guest star on Sesame Street.
