A lot of pop people out there are cool, but they overdo it.
From Norah Jones
I don't try to sound like anyone but me anymore. If something is out of my element, I try to avoid it.
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.
Without a piano I don't know how to stand, don't know what to do with my hands.
God bless Ray Charles. It was such an honor to meet him and sing with him and actually just to watch him sing from just two feet away.
I got stood up by the letter Y, he was hanging around with his X.
I've always loved to read. But sometimes I go for a year without reading, because I forget to.
The coolest thing I've gotten to do in the past few years is guest star on Sesame Street.
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 don't want to be the next big anything. I just want to play for people and that's it.
