More quotes by Amy Winehouse
All the songs I write are about human dynamics, whether it's with girlfriends, boyfriends, or family.
Amy Winehouse
You've got a degree in philosophy so you think you're cleverer than me. But I'm not just some drama queen. Cause it's where you're at, not where you've been.
Amy Winehouse
I like pin-up girls. I'm more of a boy than a girl. I'm not a lesbian, though - not before a sambuca anyway.
Amy Winehouse
I think that we have to be aware that people are allowed to make mistakes
Amy Winehouse
Having listened to great songwriters like James Taylor and Carole King, I felt there was nothing new that was coming out that really represented me and the way I felt. So I started writing my own stuff.

I just dress like... I'm an old black man. Sorry! Like I'm an old Jewish black man. I just dress like it's still the '50s.
Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse
I like stylish men although I'm someone who sees a man who's not dressed right and think what I could do with him to make him cute. I'm a typical Jewish woman like that.
Amy Winehouse
People think stage school is a little star factory but the truth is kids like me learned about being in a team situation and going out to work earlier than a lot of kids did. I don't know anyone from drama school who's now sitting on their arse doing nothing.
Amy Winehouse
Now I think that going to the gym is the best drug. I go four times a week and it gives me the buzz I need.
Amy Winehouse
I've never been a boyfriend kind of girl.
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'd like to be remembered as someone who wasn't satisfied with just one level of musicianship ... as someone who was a pioneer.
Amy Winehouse
I don't ever wanna drink again, I just, ooh I just need a friend
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 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
I never went round to loads of managers saying 'this is what I have, this is my product and I'm going to be famous so you'd better sign me up.' They came to me.
Amy Winehouse
I'm a young woman and I'm going to write about what I know.
Amy Winehouse
I've got a crush on my backing singer.
Amy Winehouse
Here in England, everyone's a pop star, innit, whereas in America they believe in the term artist.
