More quotes by 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
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
A lot of my music is slow and subtle. The subtly is what I enjoy about making music.
Norah Jones
I don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.
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
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
Sometimes when you're trying to do a record too close to home, you can get really distracted.
Norah Jones
There are absolutely no problems between me, my dad and my sister. Obviously I grew up with just my mum, but my relationship with my dad is just fine.
Norah Jones
It's important to keep indie record stores alive because their unique environments introduce music lovers to things in a very personal way.
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 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
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've been told the weirdest things: 'Yeah, I love taking a bath to your music!' or 'I gave birth to my daughter while listening to your music.'
Norah Jones
When I moved to New York, I fell head over heels back into country music and probably 'cause I missed something about Texas.
Norah Jones
Your limitations create your sound.
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 always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.
Norah Jones
I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
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.
