I don't like karaoke very much. I like being around it, but I don't like singing it. If I had to sing a karaoke song, it's usually Son of a Preacher Man by Dusty Springfield.

I have been influenced by many different artists at many different stages of my life. Starting out, it was people like Elton John, Billy Joel, Ben Folds, and Fiona Apple. As I got older I got deeper into the work of bands like the Beatles, artists like Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Etta James, and Joni Mitchell.

I do a lot of reading on Buddhist philosophy, and a Buddhist nun named Pema Chödrön talks a lot about acceptance. It's one of the main tenets of Buddhism - accepting that what is, is. The root of our suffering is when we just don't want to accept a truth. We want something to be different than it is.

I love the morning time - a cup of coffee and to sit at the piano, that's probably my favorite time.

I think that's my hope for a lot of the feminist movement is that the gender thing sort of stops being the selling point, if that makes any sense. We're just people making art, and that's how this process has felt to me.
Sara Bareilles
Love is blind, but when we close our eyes, we see with our hearts.
Sara Bareilles
I've dabbled in running around on stage, and at certain times it's nice to step away from the anchor of the piano and use a handheld microphone and connect with the audience, but I think my soul as a performer is just a little bit more connected to the instrument. To just sort of sit and sing - that feels like the most natural fit for me.
Sara Bareilles
Never say never - I certainly have those dreams, and I hope that it happens at some point,I hope I get to see those stage lights.
