More quotes by Amy Winehouse
I knew I could sing but I always thought everyone could sing, that everyone was born with a singing voice. Even when I was getting interest from singing, I just thought 'what about all these guys?' Yes, I can sing, I have a good voice but there's so many people that can and do.
Amy Winehouse
I love to live and I live to love.
Amy Winehouse
If you play an instrument, it makes you a better singer. The more you play, the better you sing, the more you sing, the better you play.
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

Amy Winehouse
I would say that jazz is my own language.
Amy Winehouse
I was expecting it to be cynical because I'm like that myself. I wouldn't want it to be all roses because life isn't like that.
Amy Winehouse
My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they're going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life, I just spend drinking.
Amy Winehouse
I know definitive points in my life and in relationships because of my songs. I write my music so that I'll never be bored of it.
Amy Winehouse
I wouldn't say I'm a feminist, but I don't like girls pretending to be stupid because it's easier.
Amy Winehouse
I didn't think it was special to be able to sing.
Amy Winehouse
I'm a young woman and I'm going to write about what I know.
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
