This performance is painful. You see short glimmers of her talent but mostly you see her self destruction, self abuse & the spiral she would never escape. At her best & those recordings exist on RUclips she was untouchable. This was an echo of that talent distorted through addiction. She had it all but sadly met the wrong guy & took the wrong drugs. She had no one in her corner with the influence to say NO & have her listen long enough to Stop.
She is my absolute favorite singer to this day! I considered even to make my first tattoo with the with the words "we only said good bye with words", then the date of her death and then the words " I died a hundred times " I I've always loved her and her music since the first time I heard her voice. I really liked her personality, apart sometimes, when she drank too much!!! I understood it, because I was the same stupid addict like her. I even remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard on the radio that she passed away. I thought there would be enough time to see her perform live sometime. Sadly, I never got an opportunity!!! I never went to her concerts because I really didn't like lots of people around me, it feels sooo uncomfortable. She didn't liked that as well, she said once in an interview... And I can see that every time I watch her perform. On small events, she was much calmer than on a big stage. Listening to her voice makes me feel something no other artist can make me feel... Love you Amy R.I.P. ✌️
@seana2646 I get what you mean... But she got so famous so fast and yes, you naled it... surrounded by all those yesmen people and the absolute worst possible man on her side in that moment... I can only say that I know how your brain works when you're an addict. And having the person you love the most in your life, not to support the ones that care about your health, plus being the main source of pain and suffering, makes it quite impossible to get over the influence he has on you... plus her, loving him to the point where she doesn't care about what others are saying to help her when he's not agreeing with it, isolating her from those who loved her without conditions, making him pretty much the main source of inspiration for her music is just devastating for a mentally and emotionally fragile girl like she was... He was a selfish person for not doing the right thing for her and leaving her, even when he probably loved her just as much as she loved him... I know how difficult it is in this situation because I did exactly this for my girlfriends health. I didn't fully get over her for years and doing so probably ruined a main part of my life, but now, being not quite sober, but at least not addict anymore, being able to manage my life, I'm sure I made the right decision at the right time.(I secretly informe myself about her life and the men she was dating to be sure they were good for her, by her sisters and mother who were in knowledge of what I was doing and helped me also with the whole thing remembering me that I did the right thing...) after her marriage and her 1st baby, her sister told her about me and she wanted me to be a part of her life again... like a long time missed brother that is back from wherever, she said... I became good friend of her and her husband, and seeing how good her life is after 15 years, having 2 kids and being married to a good man who loves her and was able to help her out of her addiction makes me happy even knowing that I had a lot of pain leaving her after loving her 12 years and then seeing the love of my life building a new life with another man knowing that probably I could have been that man on her side, but surely not being able to give her the best help, I am happy to see her being happy, because that is what it is, when you really love someone... But he, he leaved Amy and saw her getting better than going back to her and seeing her going worse again and then doing that again and again just to feel better himself, is a piece of s..t move in my opinion... Hope I didn't bothered you too much with that story, but I think it was a similar situation... Peace
😭So hard to watch.....Amy was an once in a lifetime Artist. She never really stood a chance; plagued with inner demons, addiction, bulimia & those who used her for their own gain. I ADORED HER! I'll never forget the day she died - overwhelmed with grief & sadness.....what did we lose when we lost her? An Icon. Next week is the 12th anniversary of her death.... R.I.P. sweet Amy💔
This song is about Winehouse's breakup with her then-boyfriend Blake Fielder-Civil. They got back together and married in 2007. Amy Winehouse explained to the Sun newspaper October 27, 2006 before they'd re-established their relationship: "'Back to Black' is when you've finished a relationship and you go back to what's comfortable for you. My ex went back to his girlfriend and I went back to drinking and dark times." The divorce was granted in in July 2009 and it became final six weeks later on August 28, Speaking after her death in 2011, Blake admitted he regretted introducing her to heroin. Peace out.

She was such a brilliant artist, but the addiction was too strong. You have to go back to her great performances to see how great she was. This one is heartbreaking to us old fans
Not her best version of this song. Amy Winehouse had a stellar voice and started her career in jazz. Before addiction tore at her, she was phenomenal and it's really worth seeking out other performances from her when she was more together. Hope you do.
Brilliant reaction. I never connected black to black tar heroin. I had a sister die to a black tar heroin addiction. Amy was apparently very, very drunk during this performance. There are some videos out reacting that drunk Amy was better than most sober singers. Her vocal phrasing was that of a very skilled jazz musician. The way the tabloids and "fans" attacked her, especially over her appearance, was borderline criminal. The media was relentless and absolutely sped up her death.
Amazing, but you should listen and even maybe do a new reaction to the version of back to black she did on other voices. it’s called “back to black live in Dingle” it’s one of the best if not the very best performance of the song. You will really see the difference in Amy’s state of mind and also voice between the two performances. Waiting for the second reaction😉
I think, "Back to Black" is her wiping the blackboard off and starting over. As people have said, her addiction to alcohol was heartbreaking. A very talented young woman who added to the 27 club.

black she is talking about depression .... her darkness ...has nothing to do with drugs ..its also with a lot of humour and melodrama ..watch the video and it might give you a better insight ... where she has a funeral for her heart ... in that 60s i can never love again over the top drama way .... if you want amys best song imho its got to be love is a losing game , its the perfect song and maybe the best love song written , its poetry ..... again my opinion... if you want to see amy live at her very best check out anything on the jools holland show ...she always brought her A game .... dont go to strangers with paul weller is just outstanding ...
She died of acute alcohol poisoning. I would imagine she asked for the daiquiri because she wanted to drink it. You have a knack for selecting the very worst of live performances. She was known to be so drunk she could barely finish a set. She was clearly not sober.
I think it's the show she did during the night she won all those Grammy Awards but wasn't granted a visa to enter America. At least that's what I'm making out for her dress and accessories in her hair.
Thank you for your nice reactions. And your nice work. I want you to read the new testament and have the author with you. And then you have the eternal life of the biblical Jesus Christ. That is my love for you my brother. ❤️❤️❤️✝️❤️❤️❤️

She did escape in the end. She is at peace now in God's grace singing with the angles.

Back to depression , a horrible loss RIP Amy
The video is visually stunning and you’d appreciate it
She is loaded in almost all of her live performances. Better to do her official videos to get her real sound.
There are a million good videos of her killing it. I can't believe someone requested this video could represent her.
Brilliant reaction. I never connected black to black tar heroin. I had a sister die to a black tar heroin addiction. Amy was apparently very, very drunk during this performance.

Any of her live perfomances are the same, each one fo them had a different style, so unique from her
Listen to Valerie by Amy Winehouse. Love your content. Bless you!
Please listen to Tyler ub40 from album signing off
Why do we not get not see the video?
Prince tried to save her life but couldn’t get her away from her toxic husband
She died of acute alcohol poisoning. I would imagine she asked for the daiquiri because she wanted to drink it. You have a knack for selecting the very worst of live performances. She was known to be so drunk she could barely finish a set. She was clearly not sober.
Definitely NOT a lounge singer!!
wish I could see the video you are over describing.
I think it's the show she did during the night she won all those Grammy Awards but wasn't granted a visa to enter America. At least that's what I'm making out for her dress and accessories in her hair.
Thank you for your nice reactions. And your nice work.
I want you to read the new testament and have the author with you.
And then you have the eternal life of the biblical Jesus Christ. That is my love for you my brother.
❤️❤️❤️✝️❤️❤️❤️
Hard to watch this. She wasn't at her best here.
I really hate the versions where she’s drunk and can’t hold onto this song
