More quotes by 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
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
Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
Norah Jones
I wasn't a trained Mickey Mouse club performer. I played in jazz clubs and restaurants.
Norah Jones
It's hard for me to pry with people I know.
Norah Jones
I like my life. I like my friends. I don't want to go anywhere else.
Norah Jones
I make a good fried chicken.
Norah Jones
For me making music is part social, part interaction, part collaboration.
Norah Jones
A song will keep going round in my brain and keep me awake.
Norah Jones
I like to be in control of things.
Norah Jones
Your limitations create your sound.
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 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
I really love things with melody.
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
Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.
Norah Jones
I don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.
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'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
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
