I remember early on, for instance, having to play wedding gigs, that I hated playing the music. Now I don't have to play music that I don't like. I only get to do what I enjoy, so that's pretty lucky.

Norah Jones
A song will keep going round in my brain and keep me awake.
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
I'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
Norah Jones
Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
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
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
I'm a musician because I love it and it's supposed to be fun.
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 feel like all the songs are little scenes, different angles, of the feelings that come around something ending.
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'm happy. I feel good about music.
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
For me making music is part social, part interaction, part collaboration.
Norah Jones
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise 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
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 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 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 became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.
