AMY WINEHOUSE - Hey Little Rich Girl (& Zalon & Ede)


I still get Goosebumps listening to this. 'Hey little rich girl' was written by The Specials lead guitarist Roddy Radiation. The message in his lyrics reminds me of Dylan's 'Like a Rolling Stone', which I posted here yesterday.

Here is Amy's version. Beautiful Amy; we miss her.

    1. I was quite late to discover her. I saw her on Jools Holland's show, and was instantly hooked!

  2. One of the true greats. She could have had me if she'd played her cards right.
    Rust In Peace as I say in deference to Thatcher.

    1. She had her problems, but with genius like that, we forgave her. Another member of the 27 Club.

  3. Take a look at Angelina Jordan, she has been singing since a child and has now reached the grand old age of 15. Lots of her singing on YouTube, she is incredible.

    1. I remember her singing 'What a difference a day makes'. She certainly has a great voice, but it worried me slightly, when she was younger, that she was too sophisticated for her age. I must look again now that she's older. Thanks for reminding me about her.

    2. I've just had a look at her current singing. She seems to be singing now with her own voice, and not imitating older singers. She has a beautiful voice, and I expect it will only improve. Impressive.

  5. Such a powerful voice! It has been a while since I heard it. It's sad that she could not overcome her own demons. She had a remarkable gift.
