Been into Ska since 1970. Thank you Amy for brining it to a new generation.

[@anthonyloftus2318]

It's a shame that we lost 2 great singers of Amy and Terry, God bless the pair of them 🙏

[@Lint6]

I really wish I knew how much Amy liked ska before she died. When she got popular, she was just a faceless pop star to me. Knowing she loved ska would've made me appreciate her more

[@amyg1862]

I also never heard this till long after Amy's death. I wasn't huge on her own stuff but I always saw something VERY SPECIAL IN AMY WINEHOUSE. Evry1 focused on her addictions and not her amazing talent. She was an old wise soul in a nasty modern world and the pressure on her to make OTHERS RICH took her away too early. But they made their money and blamed it on poor Blake & addiction instead of helping her. She was too good for this world. R.i.P AMY XX

[@robjones2408]

Amy could sing the alphabet, and it would still sound great. She could sing soul, jazz, ska. Just about anything. She was a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Not many vocalists get to sing with Tony Bennett AND the Rolling Stones. Amy Jade Winehouse. Gone, never ever to be forgotten.

[@evasbolci3005]

Also sang with Prince and got praised by George Michael and Bob Dylan. Well deserved superstardom.

[@mikegiapi2600]

So true. I was listening to her Reggae pretending i only hear the sounds (no word meanings.) Pleasant and melancholic 🤡💣...Big Thanks!

[@shellydavis9991]

✝️Gone too 😢soon❤

I loved this young lady,she was fearless,strong,gifted,funny, a giver,and so much more!!! 😢She will live forever in the hearts of many especially in mine✝️🙏🏽❤

[@kingfartquad9001]

God we could use you in 2020 more than ever. RIP love.

[@jamsohnson8579]

My wife just came out and caught me listening to Amy singing Specials. It was weird, she thought she should be mad, but SKA made her happy!!!!

[@nickolasgrun7115]

The real spirit of Amy ❤️

[@gn6379]

Exactly what I was thinking! Amy had an affinity with the Caribbean, and I think she would have been very happy if she got clean and returned to St Lucia to make more music (which was apparently her plan before she passed).

[@Sackeynimh]

I’ll never understand why people get butthurt about covers. Imagine writing a song, and then hearing another band play it. Probably one of the best feelings in the world.

[@stefs6964]

And she player with the band from original she love ska me to

[@stefs6964]

She played with the toots and the maytals owner of the money man

[@bunnyrabbit1699]

some people are flattered of course, then pretend like they're hurt to get the money haha

[@xtecuan]

That's true is an honor for the composers and bands

[@gustavomendoza5751]

Its a show of respect and admiration is what it is..thats why ignorant ppl are easily sensitive...cause they're...stupid.

[@Chillmander82]

I didn't appreciate Amy Winehouse when she was around. Who would have thought she sung SKA! My respect for her has only grown tenfold!

[@Smithcraft1]

I didn't really even know who she was until after she left us. She had a fantastic voice, and I'm glad that we can still enjoy her legacy even though I'm a bit sad that there won't be more of her songs for us to enjoy.

[@kellzlefontae1510]

Haven't heard this in a minute. Ska will never die.

That's not just a voice. A virtuoso jazz combo, ska band and gospel soul choir, all in one ! Oh, and Cupid.... let me put it this way.. had the little cherub heard this version, he'd forgotten all about his mission and pointed that arrow straight at Amy !

[@kcurran9913]

I thought they were exclusive to the deluxe version of Back To Black.

@@kcurran9913 i think k had her version of Cupid on a BBC album of songs performed live on radio one or it might have been an album of songs celebrating 50 years of number ones where different artists did one song from each year
