Who wrote the song rehab by amy winehouse?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Amy wrote rehab she is the original artist

NO, Amy DID NOT write rehab. a man named Noel Coward is the ORIGINAL ARTIST. it was written in 1934, and covered in the 1960's by Janis Joplin. The original is posted on youtube for viewing. lets give credit where it is due

You^ sir, are a buffoon. Noel Coward didn't write Rehab nor did Joplin cover it.

From songfacts:

Amy Winehouse was asked by The Daily Mail on August 3, 2007 how she writes songs. Said Winehouse: "With 'Rehab' I was walking down the street with Mark Ronson, who produced my last album. I just sang the hook out loud. It was quite silly really." She was then asked, "Did you sing the 'no no no' bit as well?'" "Yeah, I sang the whole line exactly as it turned out on the record! Mark laughed and asked me who wrote it because he liked it. I told him that I'd just made it up but that it was true and he encouraged me to turn it into a song, which took me 5 minutes. It wasn't hard. It was about what my old management company (run by former Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller) wanted me to do."

(EDIT) Note that this fool's ideas came from a joke video posted on Youtube in which the author wrote: "Noel Coward sings the 1934 original of the song made famous by Amy Winehouse. Song with slides. As pointed out in the comments, of course it's not the real thing. Tis but me messing about, doing a number I premiered at Lenny Beige's Night Of Legends at the Pigalle in Picadilly Circus"

Why did Amy Winehouse start drugs?

Asked by Wiki User

I think it might be because she is under pressure, as a lot of celebs are these days. My guess is that she is down a little because of the skeptical veiws on her that were in the mafs and turne to drugs as her aid. But this only made the mags have more of a skeptical veiw on her, so she turned to more drugs to make herself feel better. It's one big downwards spiral. Of course, her hubby Blake isn't helping. He's a junkie himself, therefore they get high together, and plus neither of them want to quite and it's hard to quit so they don't. They seem to enjoy it and I don't know what she sees in him...of course, that's just my opinion. I don't think for one moment all people would agree, but I know most people state this as a fact: BLAKE IS BAD FOR AMY.

Did Amy Winehouse write her own music and lyrics?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

She writes both. I've seen no proof of this alleged Noel Coward song. In fact, the Youtube video that started all this kerfuffle had the following comment on it: " Noel Coward sings the 1934 original of the song made famous by Amy Winehouse. Song with slides. As pointed out in the comments, of course it's not the real thing. Tis but me messing about, doing a number I premiered at Lenny Beige's Night Of Legends at the Pigalle in Picadilly Circus "

She doesn't even write her own lyrics for the most part. Rehab was a song written by Noel Coward in 1934. She is NOT the original artist OR the writer.

Where can you locate the song 'Shooting for the Moon' by Amy Holland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Finding "Shooting FOr The Moon"I not sure how helpful this is, but "Shooting For The Moon" by Amy holland was featured in the closing credits of the movie titled "Teen Wolf" starring Michael J. Fox. I figure that if you can find the soundtrack to this movie you will have the song. I hope that this helped. :)

Defiantly that she wasn't going to rehab no no no. The no no no is part of Amy Winehouse's lyrics from the song Rehab. Could anyone suggest the effect it has. Its from the Guardian?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

"No No No" in the song 'Rehab' by Amy Winehouse, is an essential part of her message in the song.

Consequently they also form the fundamental rhythmic aspect of the key verses of her song, which have the Rubaiyat 'AABA' rhyme scheme.

First verse:

They tried to make me go to rehab, I said, "No, no, no.",

Yes I've been black but when I come back, oh, no, no, no,

I ain't got the time, and if my daddy thinks I'm fine,

They tried to make me go to rehab, I won't go, go, go

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This verse is repeated throughout the song, occurring three times, plus a hook created by yet another repetition of the first two lines.

As stated in the question, Amy is clearly being defiant. She admits to a drinking problem, but she is going to sort it out in her own way, in her own time, if at all. And she has the added excuse that, if her father thinks she is fine, then why should she listen to 'busy bodies' or health professionals!

The effect of these words is on several levels:

  1. She is absolutely emphatic about her position on this matter.
  2. A simple No, repeated three times is very easy to remember!
  3. The listener can readily relate to her plea for viewpoint to be respected, even if they may not entirely agree with her reasoning.
  4. Her position makes us analyse our positions! How do we respond when someone tells us something 'for our own good', but which, for one reason or another, we reject or may not wish to comply with.
  5. Whether we can relate to 'her problems' or not, we all, to a greater or lesser degree, hope for respect, aim for independence, and assert the right to self-determination.

Therefore, her plea "No. No. No. Let me run my own life!" is the battle cry of all humanity! ... Even when others may feel, in some circumstances, that this is tantamount to saying "Let me ruin my own life!

For full lyrics, see the official text that comes with the CD.
