She had talent, no doubt.

First (produced) version is so much better than the second (phone-cam) version. She even seems a bit out of it in the second version.

Thanks for posting it.

Re: The Good Music Thread

Ms. Winehouse had some real talent.

As did this bloke.... a true International Superstar at the time. An absolute genius, in my opinion. Written when he was 16, recorded when he was 19 (1973) and the very first release of a new label, Virgin Records.

One of his projects in the 90's. Good article on him (he's generally interview shy) appeared in the DT last year:

Re: The Good Music Thread

i was a fan of Amy Winehouse when she first appeared on the scene, everyone seemed to focus on the fact she was a mad junkie, but she did have real talent

infact i first heard her on Steve Wright on Radio 2, the song shared a beat with "Nas - Made You Look" but I don't know what it was called...anyone shed some light?
