Winehouse ' s songs like Take the Box,and I Heard Love Is Blind shape a critical but sophisticated watch on not only her meddled life but also the music scene. Her latest album Back to Black is a pure soul package that reflects a significant link to the agonies of love. Hit singles Rehab, Back to Black and You Know I ' m No Good have everything: chimes, piano and implausible, beyond belief, jazzy vocals. Mark Ronson even pushed her back up the singles chart when they united with an equally ambitiously good ear for sound, to reproduce the Zutons 'own Valerie. And it seems like everyone can ' t keep their hands off her, with the likes of the equally drugged up, disorderly scrambled Pete Doherty (you know what I was getting at, two of a kind and all that), and the 80 ' s legend George Michael. Both have revealed they are looking forward to working with her- along a music sense.



Yet when she ' s not high on drugs or too drunk to stay awake during an interview, Amy is a refined Rock goddess, Pop princess and R ' n ' B artist, with a strong jazz influence. Assuming that we all agree to forget her outrageous actions and focus on her solidified jazz feel, then she is sure to be sticking around. Let ' s just hope that she doesn ' t forget.



Take Queen, the grandfathers of rock, Madonna, the queen of pop, mix them together and this is what you get. Whereas we are more familiar with Amy ' s private life than her day job, this drug-taking, cocktail drinking, free-swearing, bouffant hair-wearing, loose-limbed, monster eye-lined chick is the new Princess of Rock/Pop- so move over Britney. If only she knew which planet she was on.



2003 ' s Frank, the singer ' s debut album, sold worldwide thanks to her extravagant hit single Rehab and its vivid literal relation to her mainstream lifestyle of drug-addictions, booze and her unwanted force towards rehab. In a nutshell ' Winehouse. Over the course of the overtly black-and-white tracks, Amy ticks every box for a chic, classic album. From the sexually charged vocals, to the agonisingly honest lyrics, the laid-back beats with the minimal guitar work, combined with the soft trumpets, creates her soulful jazzed edge, much like her playfully-arrogant interpretation of Amy Amy Amy.
