I know I'm talented, but I wasn't put here to sing. I was put here to be a wife and a mom and look after my family.

More quotes by Amy Winehouse
I've never been an idiot - I was a smart girl but I'd do stupid things like go around Asda and nick stuff because my friends told me to. I was a good girl as a teenager.
Amy Winehouse
Music was my ultimate ambition but I liked all of it. I wanted to discipline myself in dance and acting too and I'd done all three since I was 9-years-old. I could sing, but I didn't become a great singer.
Amy Winehouse
At Age 11, I used to listen to Madonna's Immaculate Collection every day
Amy Winehouse
The more people see of me, the more they'll realize that all I'm good for is making tunes.
Amy Winehouse
I'm not very ambitious at all.
Amy Winehouse
I believe in fate and I believe that things happen for a reason, but I don't think that there's a high power, necessarily. I believe in karma very much though.
Amy Winehouse
When you're around kids you can be a little kid yourself and pretend that life is magic and you don't have to be one of those sweaty people going to work every day.
Amy Winehouse
I love to live and I live to love.
Amy Winehouse
No. No. I don't listen to anyone except my ... inner child anyway. If someone had said to me, Amy, lose a stone which they wouldn't - I don't think I would have listened anyway.
Amy Winehouse
I can play a lot of different instruments adequately but nothing really well.
Amy Winehouse
I always said I never wanted to write about love, but then I went and did that anyway.
Amy Winehouse
I've always had my own style, I've always been different. I don't like to wear anything that anyone else is wearing because it's very important for me to make a statement.
Amy Winehouse
I don't think your ability to fight has anything to do with how big you are. It's to do with how much anger is in you.
Amy Winehouse
There are certain songs I cannot hear because they are so personal that it hurts me to listen.
Amy Winehouse
I dont ever want to do anything mediocre. I hear the music in the charts and I dont mean to be rude, but those people have no soul. Learning from music is like eating a meal - you have to pace yourself. You cant take everything from it all at once. I want to be different, definitely. Im not a one trick pony. Im at least a five-trick pony.
Amy Winehouse
My dad always had music playing around us and he was always a happy chirpy man with a beautiful voice. I was always singing around the house and I assumed that's what all families did. It wasn't until I went through that nasty teenage stage that I started to realise that wasn't the case.
Amy Winehouse
I'm romantic. I fall in love every day. Not with people but with situations. The other day, I saw a tramp polishing his shoes. That just gripped my heart.
Amy Winehouse
Christina Aguilera has her own style, so good on her. I don't think anyone's every told her to put on some leather chaps and get her noonie out. She's an amazing singer but a lot of her music I can't even hear.
Amy Winehouse
I can't be arsed with game players. I'm more 'I like you, do you like me? Let's go and do something about it.' I'm a very straightforward person like that.
Amy Winehouse
Sisters come before carpet burns and blisters.
