More quotes by Norah Jones
If I make a record I love, then somebody will like it. Maybe not everybody, but that won't matter.
Norah Jones
I want to check the record books and see how many fathers and daughters have won Grammys together.
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 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
Sometimes when you're trying to do a record too close to home, you can get really distracted.
Norah Jones

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
Music is fun. It should be fun. And that's the key, I think. Keep it as the thing you love.
Norah Jones
I'm in total control. I write the songs, decide what to sing and how to sing. I even control the recording process. But, with a film, there is no control at all.
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
A lot of my music is slow and subtle. The subtly is what I enjoy about making music.
Norah Jones
It's hard for me to pry with people I know.
Norah Jones
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.
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.
