QUOTES BY Norah Jones


It's fun to peek into other people's worlds and see how they go about doing things.

I would love to make a real jazz album someday because I never have. But that's something I'm not in a rush to do.

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

I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.

Everyone in my high school was a bit nerdy. We didn't even have a football team.

I don't want to be singing my diary.

Songs are about whatever you want them to be about. For me it might mean something completely different than what it means to you. So I'd say it's about whatever the listener thinks it's about.

I'm very American.

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.
