New Amy Winehouse Album 'Heavily Samples Wizard Of Oz Musical'

August 18, 2008
New Amy Winehouse Album 'Heavily Samples Wizard Of Oz Musical'A track on Amy Winehouse's new album heavily samples a song from The Wizard of Oz, it's been reported.

Winehouse has apparently become obsessed with the 1939 musical, which starred Judy Garland.

And according to a report in the Sun newspaper, the singer has sampled the 'Wicked Witch of the West' in a new track.

“She loves the surreal look, sound and score. One of her new songs heavily samples the theme tune,” a source told the newspaper.

“And the soundtrack and score will be a theme running throughout the record.”

The unnamed source described the song as “really interesting, if a little bizarre," adding: "I suppose that’s what you would expect from her at the moment.”

It's not yet clear when Winehouse plans to release her third album.
