I don't agree with the thread starter in the slightest, but can't believe some of the OTT bile he's been faced with for stating a valid opinion.

Jesus, can anyone not understand where the original poster might have been coming from, whether you agree with him or not? Winehouse has a history of failed shows, slagging other artists, unpredictable behaviour... she's a self-abuser and a junkie. There may be at least a part truth to his suggestion that Prince felt sorry for her, even if he also greatly admires her as an artist, and thought he could give her some kinda boost.

But their 4 minutes on stage together was absolutely exquisite. I've got 3.45 mins of it (from the second verse - the start of it was performed from behind the curtain) on video, and have been playing it on a loop all day (just for the audio) - it sounds much better in this NPG arrangement than it does on her album. I almost got chucked out for doing it, but that's another story.

PLEASE share!!! I have listened to the song over and over today- but totally agree that the NPG really made it a GREAT song. Would love to see it again. PLEASE...


I fully intend to. Just need to figure out how best to do it, etc.

But it was such a special moment (the highlight of my 24 hours + watching Prince these last 2 months) that I'm relatively confident it might see an official release. This gig was filmed properly too, so fingers crossed.

i thought amy winehouse was brilliant i loved the fact i got to saw her and i would say she isnt a embarrassment to the british music industry if anything i would say she was a benefit sure at the moment she is going through a hard time and i pray to God she sorts herself out but she has recorded some amazing songs and i think the aftershow on the 21st proves she is a great singer live as well, i would definately go and see her again and would love to hear her and prince collaborate on something as well
