I've been so many places
In my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted all my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and
I'm singing this song for you
I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly
Can't you see
There's no one more important to me
So darlin' won't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and
I'm singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front, well baby I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody
Cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place
Where there's no space or time
I love you for my life
Cause you [?] and a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember remember remember...
When we were together
And I was singing this song for you
We were alone and
I was singing this song for you

Amy Winehouse (Enfield, Londra, 14 settembre 1983 – Londra, 23 luglio 2011) è stata una cantante e cantautrice britannica. Cresciuta a Southgate, Londra, Amy si appassionò alla musica fin da giovane, ascoltando artisti come Salt-n-Pepa e Sarah Vaughan. Formò un gruppo rap amatoriale chiamato Sweet 'n' Sour all'età di dieci anni e frequentò la Sylvia Young Theatre School prima di trasferirsi alla BRIT School a Selhurst, Croydon. Iniziò a cantare professionalmente a sedici anni dopo che il suo amico Tyler James mandò una sua demo ad un talent scout. Il suo album di debutto, *Frank*, uscì nel 2003 e ricevette critiche positive per le sue influenze jazz e la voce unica paragonata a Sarah Vaughan e Macy Gray. L'album raggiunse il successo commerciale, vendendo oltre un milione e mezzo di copie e vincendo l'Ivor Novello Award come Best Contemporary Song con il singolo *Stronger Than Me*. Il suo secondo album, *Back to Black*, pubblicato nel 2006, consolidò il suo status di artista internazionale. *Rehab*, il singolo principale dell'album, divenne un successo globale e le valse numerosi premi, tra cui cinque Grammy Awards nel 2008. Winehouse è stata una figura iconica della musica contemporanea, nota per la sua voce potente, lo stile unico e la vita tumultuosa segnata da problemi di salute e dipendenze. Morì a soli 27 anni il 23 luglio 2011.
