She kept herself away from treatment. When her ex cleaned himself up, she still couldnt. She shut herself out. Literally the song "rehab" is her shutting people out. At some point artists believe drugs give them the power. Especially if they are still creative while addicted. She had an addictive and obsessive personality. You cant help someone who refuses to be helped or is in denial about having a problem.

Your lovely smiles when you first hear her voice is why Amy will still be listened to in a 1000 years. There will never be another like her.

Amy had the greatest voice of her generation. She was auditioning here. So, so sad she died she died so young. She could blow everyone out of the water. She was so magnificent.

I read that Amy wrote "Love is a Losing Game" (my favorite) in 30 minutes while sitting at a bar. She was the last true musical talent in a sea of boring mediocrity. Her originality and creativity was a blessing and her early passing a tragedy for music and our planet. The flame that burns twice as bright lasts half as long. Amy was an musical inferno.

She was 1 of 1. So unique, so soulful. It almost seemed effortless. And she didn't use a lot of power, almost conversational.

I just remember having a conversation with a friend who was an alcoholic and telling him I know that his addiction is bad and destructive and painful and hard to stop. But he compared it to drug addiction. I told him it's not the same thing because my sister would could not as easily buy Heroin as easily as she would be able buy alcohol. She did horrible things to get that China White. And he agreed. He said, "Well, that's true. I can scrape together $3.00 to buy a bottle of vodka. But it's not that easy to but Heroin with $3.00 worth of change". So, I feel grateful he understood. It's true, my family didn't understand. We tried so many times to help my sister. Put her in rehab. She would get out, be good for awhile and then go right back to using. I know she tried. But she just couldn't get rid of that monkey on her back. She finally succumbed to the drug when she was 37 years old. I was 24 at the time. Anyway, thank you once for your thoughtful and compassionate words. I greatly appreciate your comment. Have a safe and Happy New Year.🎊🎉🙏💖😺🍀

The documentary "Amy" is excellent, and well worth your time.

It's just so f*cking sad too :(

Amy definitely had a very unique voice. Yeah what a tragic story… So talented.. She kinda reminds me of Lady Gaga & Joplin. You can tell she was going through something right here.. Sad what drugs can do to you. So young and gifted💕

Can’t believe you never heard of her!! She is still huge in Britain and her voice is amazing!

My favorite Amy Winehouse song. There never was and never will be anyone else like Amy Winehouse. Iconic.

"Back to Black" and "We're Still Friends" her voice was so powerful and distinct ❤🔥

rip amy..fantastic voice now singing in the stars x x x

Amy sang without fear or shame. Just the real stuff out of her soul - and into ours. RIP pretty lady.

So glad you did this one. Amy was a national treasure for us in the UK. She is sorely missed and was a real girl next door with an unbelievable talent that everyone should hear. Thanks

This pure talent guys! Sitting on a chair and belting it out! Amy is old school classic blues and jazz ! The best female voice there ever was!

She was a unique and amazing talent. Heartbreaking.

Welcome to Amy’s world. She was such a rare and beautiful talent. One of a kind voice. Gone too soon. ❤

Sorry, I'm just trying to wrap my head around the idea that someone on this planet still hasn't heard any of Amy winehouse's music...

she was extreemly talented, Her demons won and killed her.

I was devastated when she died, just over ten yrs now. Love Amy 💘 forever.

I have to agree with so many comments here. I get choked up too when this version is played. She was a gift to all of us. R.I.P. Amy. Such a Tragic Loss.

Please react to more of Amy’s music, she was a true once in a generation talent gone far too soon. She was so gifted as a singer and a songwriter. She’s particularly beloved in her country the UK where she is one of the best selling female artists of all time ❤️

It's so effortless with her, she just opens her mouth and it comes out so resonant and pure, just sitting there in jeans and a t-shirt, just off-handedly. She was something.
