Musician

Amy Jade Winehouse (14 September 1983 - 23 July 2011) was an English singer and songwriter. She is known for his deep, audible voice and his mix of musical genres, including soul, rhythm and blues and jazz. A member of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra during his youth, Winehouse signed Simon Fuller's 19 Management in 2002 and soon recorded several songs before signing a publishing agreement with EMI. She also forged a working relationship with producer S Salaam Remi over these record-breaking publishers. Winehouse's first album, Frank, was released in 2003. Many of the album's songs were influenced by jazz and, with the exception of two covers, were co-written by Winehouse. Frank was a critical success in the UK and was nominated for the Mercury Prize. The song "Stronger Than Me" won him an Ivor Novello award for Best Contemporary Song from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers, and Authors.

Girls talk to each other like men talk to each other. But girls have an eye for detail.

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. I love what I do, but it's not where it begins and ends.

I'm of the school of thought where, if you can't sort something out for yourself, no one can help you. Rehab is great for some people but not others.

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.

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.

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.

If I died tomorrow, I would be a happy girl.

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.
