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.

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
It's important for me to be with a musician or someone who has a creative mind.
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
I'm not Amy the star, I'm Amy the girl with the guitar.
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
I wouldn't be with a man who was scared of me, but I don't think men are scared of me - look at me, I'm tiny. I don't think I'm capable of putting anyone off. I'm a nice girl.
Amy Winehouse
I was gutted to leave my boyfriend at home when I started my tour, but taking my pillow was like taking a little bit of him with me.
Amy Winehouse
I couldn't resist him, his eyes were like yours, his hair was exactly the shade of brown. He's just not as tall, but I couldn't tell, it was dark and I was lying down.
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've always written poetry but I didn't realise it was a therapy for me until I was maybe 15. That's when my singing started to come together as well because I was listening to so much jazz. What I love I will always embrace.
Amy Winehouse
I would love to study guitar or trumpet.
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.
Amy Winehouse
Over futile odds, and laughed at by the gods And now the final frame. Love is a losing game.
Amy Winehouse
I do see myself settling down, getting married and having kids. But when I think about a family life in the future there's rarely a man involved which is kind of weird.
Amy Winehouse
I had a real stage school voice and I could do loud things, but it's not about being loud, it's about sensitivity and subtlety in music. You can do so much more with a quiet voice than with a belter.
Amy Winehouse
When I'm nervous, I stutter, and I had to keep stopping and starting.
Amy Winehouse
To be honest, I think kids have got a lot more going on than adults. They've got their heads screwed on a lot better.
Amy Winehouse
Life happens. There is no point in being upset or down about things we can't control or change.
Amy Winehouse
I've got a crush on my backing singer.
Amy Winehouse
I didn't think it was special to be able to sing.
