Norah Jones

“I don't think it's a bad thing to share how you feel, especially if people can relate to it.”

“I think it's important for people who love music to retain physical CDs or even vinyl, because it sounds so great and so much warmer than music over the internet.”

“For me making music is part social, part interaction, part collaboration.”

“I like barbecuing because it's easy.”

“You would never catch me in a miniskirt.”

“I'm not going to play lead guitar in a concert hall full of people, because I'm going to mess up a lot.”

“Designers send me clothes I wouldn't feel comfortable wearing.”

“I don't want to be the next big anything. I just want to play for people and that's it.”

“I don't actually have a lot of discipline. I've worked hard at music. But I feel like you know, I felt like kind of natural at it. I always had a knack for it.”

“I wasn't very aware of pop music because I attended an arts school. For me, it was all about jazz.”

“You know, when you have a father who's pretty well known but you don't see him, the last thing you want to do is start talking about him all the time to people.”

“A lot of my music is slow and subtle. The subtly is what I enjoy about making music.”

“I love my dad and we have a very good relationship now.”

“Your limitations create your sound.”

“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.'”

“My first two records are so simply constructed. The reason isn't because I wanted to make simple music. It's because I don't really have the chops.”

“I'm not trying to conquer Hollywood. I love my day job.”

“Maybe I'm genetically more inclined to music - but the music I make is so far removed from Indian classical music. I grew up in Texas!”

“If you're a female and you get asked by someone who shoots the most beautiful female scenes to be in their film, it's kind of exciting.”

“I don't like shopping, and I like my clothes to be comfortable.”
