Respect It.

"When she was very young she was too cute. She found her style later and worked on it as no other model has. Christy Turlington and Claudia Schiffer got things easily. Linda had to fight and I like fighters - even if it gives the reputation of not being so nice. Who cares? I have the same reputation but I am not sure that I worked so hard as Linda." -Karl Lagerfeld

“When I first heard Back To Black, I thought it was an automatic, instant classic. The voice – it had so much pain in it but it (also) had so much soul and warmth and texture. It was incredible, you don’t hear voices like that all the time. The album is amazing. She definitely became an inspiration to me right away…” - Mary J. Blige

There's a strong push coming out of London right now which is great,” said Jay. “It's been coming ever since, I guess, Amy Winehouse. I mean always, but I think Amy, this resurgence was ushered in by Amy, that's how I see it" - Jay-Z

"I was thinking about us doing a duet - an old Marvin and Mary Wells song called 'Once Upon A Time'. It would have been amazing." "There was some good stuff on her CD, She kind of reminds me of Etta James a little bit."

"I like Amy Winehouse, there is no one like her and there never will be. Her 'Back to Black' album is just - I remember listening to 'Love Is a Losing Game' for the first time and it broke my heart just listening to it."-Seal

“AMY WINEHOUSE is a STYLE ICON. She is a beautiful, gifted artist. And I very much like her hairdo. I took it as an inspiration. Because, in fact, it was also Brigitte Bardot’s hairdo in the late Fifties and Sixties. And now Amy has made it her own style. So, when I saw her, I knew it was the right moment. Amy… she is the new Brigitte.”- Karl Lagerfeld

"Amy Winehouse was "the person that made it all happen" on each of her songs.she was actually a creator of situations and the person that made it all happen."
"She played the guitar. All of these songs were written by Amy on a guitar and then produced. Amy wrote the chords to the majority of her songs. 'Love Is A Losing Game', 'Unholy War', all of those are 100 per cent Amy."- Salaam Remi
