Amy Winehouse performing a live acoustic version of You Know I'm No Good for album promo on Back to Black. She was so nice, unassuming... just concerned with practising with her guitarist to get the tracks as good as they could be.
@@sbakernyc5761 Lol you would think right? I had heard about her but always thought she was a weird crack head but obviously I was super wrong. Once I listened to her I instantly fell in love with her. I didnt start listening to her until last year and wish I had been listening when she was still alive.
One of the best voices of all time. It was just effortless for her. She looked a million miles away here, bored really and it just flowed out of her naturally...damn.
She was so disconnected from reality toward the end of her life. The voice, oddly enough, was disconnected from reality, too. On another level vocally, really.
Agreed, she even stated she hated singing these songs that reminded her of when things were bad, but they constantly made her sing them because they were hits. Amazing how she still seems to sing them unlike anyone else can.
Haden Dover not flawless, she lost the rhythm a couple of times. To be fair, the guitarist was rushing a bit and playing non complimentary rhythmic phrases.
I am portuguese and when I was a kid i went to London with the only purpose to get an autograph from her. I went to her house in Camden Town and I actually got it!I cannot believe she's gone.
No unnecessary vocal gymnastics. Just the minimum to carry the song. She was head and shoulders above her contemporaries and the tendency amongst so many singers to show off their vocal techniques rather than make the song come alive. I am not a fan as such, but even as a passing admirer I can hear her talent in every note and in the perfectly styled delivery of her performance. A truly great singer and a tragic loss of a talent so young.
that voice , just a guitar, no loud enhancers, back ups or whatever else others use to sound good-- all she needed/had was that voice . Need more be said?
She passed on my 30th Birthday. I absolutely adore her. After that day I got clean/sober. It has been 101/2 years now. I wish she could have made the journey with me.
man everytime I hear her music I can't believe she's gone.... such a beautiful singer and an amazing talent it's so sad her demons got the best of her but she left us with a lifetime of music i hope your resting in peace amy and that your finally happy....
A great guitarist (whose contribution is often overlooked) and a great vocal talent! To make such music without the additional digital enhancements is the true sign of a great vocalist and a great musicien. Wonderful.... not to be forgotten.
This immediately brings wetness to my eyes. Oh Amy, you are the one. You are the queen of complete talent. How dare you leave us. We wanted to hold you in our arms for many, many years. You were never trouble. You were a cut above this world.
one of the greatest singer song writers in the past 40 years a true musical genius . No one else sounds like Amy and she sounded completly different each time she sang the same song. She was one of a kind who could write a truly heart felt emotinal song brutally honest with a sound that was retro jazz hip hop her own style.
" Every Angel has a past; and every Sinner has a Future" .“May the wind always be at your back and the sun upon your face. And may the wings of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars.”, the tears are now for when we see each other again, I don't want to be sad anymore but I can't stop crying when I see you or hear your voice. Love.....
I can’t stop playing this. I’m mind blown at how amazing she is. I discovered her way too late but I’ll never stop listening. God bless you girl. You’re amazing and now free 🙏💖
Just a magnificent singer. So talented it makes your head ache. That voice will live on forever. And an amazing songwriter to boot. Her should have been so Big that nobody could stand next to her. For her to be so unaware of the magnitude of it is still mind boggling.
Thank you Amy for introducing me to some fine jazzy guitar playing. Thank you for putting your fears and despair in these lyrics and helping me to get through troubles I'm in right now. I'll pray for your soul so it can have peace in other world ❤️
So timeless and I just can’t believe I’ve just recently been introduced to this magnificent voice and love how she plays with her nails while belting out a tune that nobody but her could do
If I could ever find a time machine, the very first thing I would want do is go back in time and save her so that the world could be blessed with her music and honoured with the sheer presence of miss wine house. There will never be, can never be another Amy Winehouse. Can't believe it's 11 years already. Love from Pakistan. We love you and always will. Peace.
Late November, early December of 2021 I'm so stuck in her voice and her beauty. What an angel she IS/was! I wish I had listened to her music bfore she passed 😭
"You Know I'm No Good" Meet you downstairs in the bar and hurt, Your rolled-up sleeves in your skull t-shirt, You say, "What did you do with him today?" And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray, 'Cause you're my fella, my guy, Hand me your Stella and fly, By the time I'm out the door, You tear me down like Roger Moore, I cheated myself, Like I knew I would, I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good, Upstairs in bed, with my ex-boy, He's in a place, but I can't get joy, Thinking on you in the final throes, This is when my buzzer goes, Run out to meet you, chips and pitta, You say, "When we're married," 'Cause you're not bitter, "There'll be none of him no more," I cried for you on the kitchen floor, I cheated myself, Like I knew I would, I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good, Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain, We're like how we were again, I'm in the tub, you on the seat, Lick your lips as I soak my feet, Then you notice little carpet burn, My stomach drop and my guts churn, You shrug and it's the worst, Who truly stuck the knife in first I cheated myself, Like I knew I would I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good, I cheated myself, Like I knew I would I told you I was trouble, Yeah, you know that I'm no good.
She was one of the greatest of all time. A GOAT. She never had to try. A modern day swinging flapper. I often imagine how amazing her music would be if she survived fame.
Her sensuality is evident in everything she does her voice sultry but dynamic. Gotta give kudos to the camera operator! What gives me the biggest lift is her coy and sweet smile at the end of the performance. Kindness, Compassion and Consideration. No Anger then know, what Love and passion is
what i love about the way she performed is that u can just tell how genuine her connection to her music was. There was no annoying/forced facial expressions or hair flips or hand gestures is was purely about the music and her relationship to it was so pure. There was nothing commercial or forced about the way she was in any respect. i have unlimited admiration for her
Me encanta escucharla en versión acústica...se aprecia mejor su preciosa voz. Amy nos dejó, pero su dulce voz aun nos cautiva. Ella demostró su autenticidad sin precedentes en cada palabra de sus canciones y nos conmovió con su música y dejó un legado musical que inspira y se tomará como referencia para futuros artistas. Que descanse en paz :'(
