@@eli-ho2ki LOLOLOLOLOLOL wtf man, mac is ok, he is a good artist but there's levels homie. Maybe you're too young now but time will open up your eyes.
She didn't take her own life. Her body gave out after years of heavy drinking, substance abuse, and bulimia. In the song she's talking about Blake Fielder. The funeral isn't in reference to him dying (he's still alive) but to her dying inside.
The song is about having a lack of closure after a relationship. In this case, her man left her to return to his ex. (Something she was dealing with in real life) Black refers to the loneliness and despair that leads her down the path of self-destruction and addiction. In her case, Drugs, Alcohol and Bulimia. All of which resulted in her eventual death
@@ThomasJ502i saw somewhere that she did not started heroin until later on. I could be wrong tho. I love her, she is much missed in this generation of basic ass music. She is so powerful, still standing tall on the legends stand.
@@albamartinez4987 Hell NO he wasn't. He was there to ride her coattails for the fame he couldn't get & always wanted. When she was quietly rehabbing in the Caribbean, her father is the one who called the paparazzi to come there to unknowing take photos of her. He got paid nicely. They were unflattering photos without her wig or makeup. She was very upset about this. He also convinced her to go back on tour when she said herself and was clearly not ready. $$$!! Very sad. After her death her father even took that as an opportunity to try and put out his own album and do some concerts. Needless to say, it didn't take off.
Her death was sad, but it wasn’t suicide. She had been going through massive depression from a nasty breakup and fighting bulimia-She relapsed into heavy drinking and sadly after one night of heavy drinking combined with her poor health, she died from alcohol poisoning.
our darling AMY....our camden girl..loved by many ..such a normal girl...troubled in her life..we miss her dearly here in camden,london,england...when she died ..the amount of outpouring outside her house ..ill never forget that day EVER......
This song is on one of the best album ever made!! I loved every song on the , Back to Black album!! She died of alcohol poisoning- I cried when I heard the news 😢
Amy Winehouse was a powerhouse! One of the most incredible female voices ever. She did not commit suicide but did die from alcohol poisoning from binge drinking. Such a tragic loss, but even more sad was the life she lead searching for love and acceptance.
Amy was a badass.on stage. singing like an old time jazz singer make you feel her pain(lots of it} and very little happiness.off stage a very shy woman.But heroin and alcohol took there toll.Bad husband and her loneness ,while trying hard to sober up, alcohol poisoning took her at that "27" age, look it up you will be shocked to see these great artist don't make it to "28"sad.rip Amy
There's only a few artists where I actually physically cried when they died. She is one of them. She brought the Jazz and the class back to music. She brought the music from the 40s back from Harlem. I absolutely loved her. So sad she was so young
R.I.P. sweet Amy 💔 She was burying her broken heart😢 The headstone read 'Here Lies The Heart Of Amy Winehouse', but it was removed after her sudden death (not suicide - alcohol poisoning). This song got me thru so many dark times.....she had that incredibly unique gift of being able to connect with those who were in pain - her lyrics, her music but combine that with her amazing voice and you have a LEGENDARY artist....gone far too soon....this world & fame was too much for her to cope with. She battled bulimia in her teens/20's, alcoholism/drug addiction in her 20's and the scumbag of a husband that destroyed her (‘Back To Black’ is about him).....he was so toxic, but tragically she paid the price for loving him. Listen to ‘Love is A Losing Game’, ‘You know I'm No Good’, ‘Rehab’ and a couple of covers - ‘To Know Him Is To Love Him’: ruclips.net/video/WohZm1GsAOw/видео.html or Hathaway's 'I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know' - ruclips.net/video/362JArvhAqg/видео.html - mesmerising, haunting and such emotive vocals...basically what she did best. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤 She was wise beyond her years, but also a tortured soul......I miss her.....😢 Here’s a link to the trailer for ‘Amy’ - a documentary of the highs and lows of her life and how it ended. Heart-breaking is an understatement: ruclips.net/video/_2yCIwmNuLE/видео.html (I watched it when released in the cinema......I WEPT, as did most of the audience) 💔
I can't bear to watch the documentary, too painful, on the one hand of course I want to, but I just can't stand that such a beautiful soul is destroyed. It's like torture, like some of her songs, that is equally beautiful and painful to listen to.
Yep. She said that. There's a live version you can really hear her dish it out. Lyrics He left no time to regret Kept his dick wet with his same old safe bet Me and my head high And my tears dry, get on without my guy You went back to what you know So far removed from all that we went through And I tread a troubled track My odds are stacked, I'll go back to black We only said goodbye with words I died a hundred times You go back to her and I go back to I go back to us I love you much, it's not enough You love blow and I love puff And life is like a pipe And I'm a tiny penny rollin' up the walls inside We only said goodbye with words I died a hundred times You go back to her and I go back to We only said goodbye with words I died a hundred times You go back to her and I go back to black
Thanks for the whole text, Erin. I must say, I protest to this kind of truely insane censorship, is that something British, or anglo-saxon? I even heard the whole sentence in a swiss version of the voice! Switzerland, which is considered to be very bourgeois! Shame! I think I speak for most Europeans on this practice. So to all the censors wherever you are: Dick, dick, dick!! By the way: to me this song was her best! Kind regards from the Netherlands!
“You love blow and I love puff” Wow. Fucking wow.. Always loved Amy’s music but never followed her closely. But that line just caused me to piece together her descent into addiction and ultimately, her death. • Amy released first album ‘Frank’ in 2003. She drinks and smokes weed/puff just like most English twenty-somethings. She’s a healthy size and a beautiful looking woman. • Amy meets Blake in 2005. Blake is in a relationship with a woman he regularly uses crack and heroin with. • Amy and Blake get together for six months. Amy falls in love with Blake. Blake leaves her to return to the ex-girlfriend. • Amy’s heart was broken and she begins to drink heavily. She also loses an unhealthy amount of weight (through either Anorexia or Bulimia). Rehab was suggested to her. She goes but checks out almost immediately. • Amy records ‘Back To Black’ in 2006, most of which focuses on the heartbreak she feels from Blake leaving her and her life since he left. The album is a huge critical and commercial success. • Blake reappears in 2007 and they get back together. They get engaged immediately and married one main thing later. • Within months Amy is cancelling concerts citing ill-health. She’s already heavily using crack and heroin with Blake. There’s masses of other info/timelines online. I just wanted to figure out the timeline of this aspect of her addiction as I’ve had issues with addiction in my life. Maybe Amy would have always ended up following this path even if she hadn’t met Blake. But it looks like she felt like the only way to keep Blake was to embrace the reason she thought he left her in the first place. “You love blow and I love puff” In order to keep him, she felt she has to join him fully in using crack and heroin. And it destroyed her. Crack and heroin destroys everyone, but it seems women are physically affected worse than men are. Heavy use takes its toll on women more than it does on men. Also, when Blake returned to his ex, it appears that if Amy had been conscious about her body then it developed into dysmorphia. She remained painfully underweight until she died only five years later. Such a sad death. Such a talent and such a beautiful woman, both inside and out. RIP Amy. Doubt anyone will read this comment but for personal reasons I wanted to write it down. Addiction is fucker and ruins so many lives. Addicts need help, not scorn.
Yes, Half you've got it exactly...in only half a song! Amy was a trained jazz singer & musician. Only a few years before this she was a fresh faced musical prodigy. But a sadness inside gave her pain, and alcohol and drugs relieved that.
She got out of rehab and consumed the amount of alcohol she would of consumed before going to rehab and it poisoned her. She died of alcohol poisoning. I did the same thing when I got out of rehab, I took what I would class as a small hit of heroin before going to rehab and my tolerance was very low and I OD. Luckily I woke up. You should look at the last photo of Amy walking down a street after getting out of rehab, she looked stunning in it. She died on the 23rd of July which is my birthday.
My fav female singer all time. Amy has a few acoustic performances on YT including this one, that you might want to check out - really see her connection to the songs, and power live.
In the music video if you look closely, the box that they were burying was meant to contain Amy “heart”. She was using that symbolism as a metaphor for heart break!
Gone too soon! RIP Amy! You had so much more to give. What a tragedy...should've went to rehab. She died from alcohol poisoning. The man she's talking about is what Bobby Brown was to Whitney. He wasn't no good for her.
Winehouse's official cause of death was "alcohol toxicity." At the time of her passing, Winehouse's blood alcohol level was more than five times over the legal limit. Coroner Suzanne Greenaway ruled it "death by misadventure" and an "unintended consequence" of drinking too much alcohol! Death of Amy Winehouse Reveals Dangers of Co-Occurring Disorders. Amy Winehouse suffered from the co-occurring disorders of alcohol abuse and bulimia nervosa. Thus, her death as a result of the deadly combination of these occurring disorders was not surprising!!
When she talks about being in the black, it's opposed to being in the red. She initially sings about her tears drying after he leaves and finding a way she moves on in the black, and not stuck in the red. That's the way I always read into it.
You two are so great together! Such a pleasure to see your love and respect gor each other. Big hearts and big character on display. What a pair. Been watching from afar for a long time and I've never written a comment anywhere before. Please keep it all up!! God bless you!
I agree with you that Amy was very poetic and she had an old soul (like me)! This song, I’m sure, was very personal to her because it mirrored her life and the tumultuous relationship she was involved in! The blackness was probably depression since she died of alcohol poisoning which basically means she drank herself to death! I’m touched anytime I hear her music because I think of all that talent wasted and she was so young! RIP Amy! ❤️❤️
Thank you for reacting to this one. As far as I'm concerned, this was Amy's best song. Heartbreaking what happened to her. She could have had a much bigger career, but she used alcohol and drugs to fight her depression and lost that battle. Thank you for sharing.
She wrote this about Blake Fielder. When she met him he was with another woman. They both had an affair and it broke her heart when he went back to his woman. The video symbolizes her dying inside. They eventually married, he introduced her to heroin and crack. She didn't commit suicide as such, but the lifestyle Fielding introduced her to was her demise. Her body was broken with years of alcohol, substance abuse and having an eating disorder, and eventually she died of alcohol poisoning .
This is such a sad song, it is about her break up with the love of her life who left her for an old girlfriend. At the time Any and her boyfriend were both heavily addicted to drugs (lyrics 'you love blow and I love pow' and 'life is like a pipe') The break up started the spiral downwards that finally killed her. The burial in the video is her heart and 'back to black' is a metaphor for darkness and depression. Hope that helped a little.
@@danieltjchalmerschalmers2165 no..she died from accidental alcohol poisoning due to the insane amount of alcohol she consumed and her bullimia made her heart stop in her sleep. she quit drugs cold turkey in 2009 for good and died in 2011
@@danieltjchalmerschalmers2165 lmao she literally died from alcohol poisoning.. she was over 30% of the lethal amount of alcohol that should be in ones system... her eating disorders and her being sober for the previous 10 days mixed with her medication to help stop addiction literally stopped her heart in her sleep. There’d be no reason to hide this information since everyone knew about her previous drug addictions. You should really watch her documentary before spouting blatant lies on the internet that daft people will actually believe.
She was on eof the biggest Talents to come out of the UK. She also was Schoolmates with Adele and Jessi J. but instead of calling it a PErforming Arts High School, it was called "Stage School". Her music has been very popular and it was used on The UK Soap Opera Eastenders when they did a Documentary about one of the Characters Stacey Slater and on Emmerdale, they used another one of her Songs "You Know I'm No Good" when they did a profile on Kelly Windsor. She had a major drug habit that destroyed her at 27 which was also the same age that Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana died as well as Brian Jones of The Rolling stones died.
I'm sure someone else has already mentioned it but the funeral is for Amy's heart. Sometimes, a show of strength is just a disguise for the most vulnerable.
2 albums = Gold. True story I was at a festival with my then GF and we both agreed we needed to see her live before she died and sadly what the world could see coming became reality soon after. She was spectacular live. Such a sad and tragic loss she is to the world. RIP
There is an amazing live version where she is chillin' on a couch, looking at her nails and playing with her hair while she sings Valerie. She was effortlessly talented!
The original version was by The Zutons, Amy wasn't "talking about" anything. Mark Ronson just thought it would be a great song for her to cover, with her voice.
Very unusual for one so very young to become a legend and yet, she was..... in spite of her fast life, or perhaps because of it, she was always approachable to fans and very humble. A National Treasure of the UK....may she rest in peace xxxx
Jai- I know what you mean about ‘on the same level’ Amy’s CD was one of the few I’ve ever bought & I listened to every single song on repeat- she has that *thing* I love your sensitivity!
REHAB is a badass song she wrote and another one is YOU KNOW IM NO GOOD she loved Sara Vaughn and she sings TEACH ME TONIGHT on Jules Holand Show and damn the way she kills it makes you close your eyes and swear ...so badass.
Amy is my girl. She can sing angst and tell a man off at the same time. See y’all need hear, ‘In My Bed’ My Tears Dry On Their Own, Body and Soul duet with Tony Bennett and and and...oh and Cherry Wine fea NAS... There is a biopic about her called Amy. It’s on cable.
She's not talking about heroin, she's talking about darkness, depression, fade to black. Her poison was primarily alcohol. And yes, in uncensored versions; the line is..."kept his d**k wet"
I grabbed this Album as soon as it came out. It is fantastic. It features of course her mega hit "Rehab." When she died, I couldn't listen to any of her songs without crying. It was a year before I could handle listening to :Rehab." She had such a bright future and her life ended way too soon.
You want to have a little fun with Amy Winehouse ? Listen to “Stronger Than Me” off of Frank. It’s one of my favorite songs of hers. Bust out the lyrics and have fun with it!
This vid was like unexpectedly emotional to me😭 you guys are so cuteee together u have great energy, u seem like u have such good connection. But this song I forgot how emotional it was lmao , not me over here crying to a reaction vid😂😭 lovee ur guys's reaction, can't wait to go watch more lol💕
He’s like, “Wait...how you relate to her?”🧐 🤣🤣🤣 Good rxn video! Also, I think that funeral represented her going back to black, like the death of her heart.
Back to black is a reference of her getting back into her old ways of drug use in the song it says that he loved blow and she loved puff it was a reference of her liking weed and Blake her ex boyfriend at the time loving coke, But they both did multiple drugs because even in the song she is referencing a crack pipe. She later died of alcohol poisoning. The great ones always go too soon...
"Back To Black" also means severe depression. One of her idols was Frank Sinatra who also suffered from the same illness. Amy named her debut after him. He attempted suicide when his marriage to Ava Gardner broke up.
She died of Alcohol poisoning. She was 27 like Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, and Kurt Cobain. This song is about her guy going back to his ex and she goes back to depression.
R.I.P Amy 💯 Lets get this video to 1K likes for Amy!!! LETS GOOOOOO!! 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾

Thank You!!!
To your list I'd add heartbreak, relationship drama and being relentlessly and cruelly hounded by the British tabloid media.
@@sheilalomprey2960 It said "Here lies the heart of Amy Winehouse". The song is about one of the times that she and Blake split up.

How could anyone forget such a talent xxx
The song is about having a lack of closure after a relationship. In this case, her man left her to return to his ex.

Lyrics
He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet with his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry, get on without my guy
You went back to what you know
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked, I'll go back to black
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
I go back to us
I love you much, it's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rollin' up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to black

She wrote this about Blake Fielder. When she met him he was with another woman. They both had an affair and it broke her heart when he went back to his woman. The video symbolizes her dying inside. They eventually married, he introduced her to heroin and crack. She didn't commit suicide as such, but the lifestyle Fielding introduced her to was her demise. Her body was broken with years of alcohol, substance abuse and having an eating disorder, and eventually she died of alcohol poisoning .
This is such a sad song, it is about her break up with the love of her life who left her for an old girlfriend.
At the time Any and her boyfriend were both heavily addicted to drugs (lyrics 'you love blow and I love pow' and 'life is like a pipe')
The break up started the spiral downwards that finally killed her.
The burial in the video is her heart and 'back to black' is a metaphor for darkness and depression.
Hope that helped a little.
She didn't commit suicide, she died from addictive drug complications.
She died from a heroin overdose...
@@danieltjchalmerschalmers2165 no..she died from accidental alcohol poisoning due to the insane amount of alcohol she consumed and her bullimia made her heart stop in her sleep. she quit drugs cold turkey in 2009 for good and died in 2011
@@samcleary5719 yeah that’s what the say but that’s not how she died.... don’t believe everything the tv and media tell you 😂
@@danieltjchalmerschalmers2165 lmao she literally died from alcohol poisoning.. she was over 30% of the lethal amount of alcohol that should be in ones system... her eating disorders and her being sober for the previous 10 days mixed with her medication to help stop addiction literally stopped her heart in her sleep. There’d be no reason to hide this information since everyone knew about her previous drug addictions. You should really watch her documentary before spouting blatant lies on the internet that daft people will actually believe.
She was on eof the biggest Talents to come out of the UK. She also was Schoolmates with Adele and Jessi J. but instead of calling it a PErforming Arts High School, it was called "Stage School". Her music has been very popular and it was used on The UK Soap Opera Eastenders when they did a Documentary about one of the Characters Stacey Slater and on Emmerdale, they used another one of her Songs "You Know I'm No Good" when they did a profile on Kelly Windsor. She had a major drug habit that destroyed her at 27 which was also the same age that Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana died as well as Brian Jones of The Rolling stones died.
Another artist who joined the 27 club.
Been sober for almost a decade, bless her heart.
I'm sure someone else has already mentioned it but the funeral is for Amy's heart. Sometimes, a show of strength is just a disguise for the most vulnerable.
Thank you for your reaction. I hope you react to more Amy Winehouse. :)
He comes in and uses her and then always returns to his other woman so she is left with emptiness
2 albums = Gold. True story I was at a festival with my then GF and we both agreed we needed to see her live before she died and sadly what the world could see coming became reality soon after. She was spectacular live. Such a sad and tragic loss she is to the world. RIP
it is a wonderful thing expanding your musical tastes. there are some incredible artists out there. RIP Amy Winehouse.
Jai - I love that you show your emotions and guess what .... that is what music does to us!
Could u react to Valerie by Amy . I think she was talking about drugs.
There is an amazing live version where she is chillin' on a couch, looking at her nails and playing with her hair while she sings Valerie. She was effortlessly talented!
Valerie is a cover song but Amy maid it her own
@@mamamac70 That's my favorite version!
The original version was by The Zutons, Amy wasn't "talking about" anything. Mark Ronson just thought it would be a great song for her to cover, with her voice.
The original song was written about a girl named Valerie that the guy who wrote the song had to leave in America when he moved back to the U.K. ❤️
Your reaction to this song, getting what Amy was singing about, made me a subscriber. Thank you for this!💜
Very unusual for one so very young to become a legend and yet, she was..... in spite of her fast life, or perhaps because of it, she was always approachable to fans and very humble. A National Treasure of the UK....may she rest in peace xxxx
Jai- I know what you mean about ‘on the same level’ Amy’s CD was one of the few I’ve ever bought & I listened to every single song on repeat- she has that *thing* I love your sensitivity!
Honestly if she had lived on, she would have become the queen of jazz in the 21st century.
7:39 my man said, "ok.....[long ass pause] how you on the same level???" Hahahahahahaha funniest shit ever
You need to watch the Amy documentary. Beautiful human being 🖤
She had a terrible addiction and her body wore out.
The documentary “Amy” is very good
This guy is so shallow, lmao. "Women thing". Sad.
he is wack
I'd try "Rehab", "You Know I'm No Good", and "Tears Dry On Their Own".
Right 🙏🙏
...what a perfect review from both perspectives...subbed...u got my vote for what its worth!
REHAB is a badass song she wrote and another one is YOU KNOW IM NO GOOD she loved Sara Vaughn and she sings TEACH ME TONIGHT on Jules Holand Show and damn the way she kills it makes you close your eyes and swear ...so badass.
Amy is my girl. She can sing angst and tell a man off at the same time. See y’all need hear, ‘In My Bed’ My Tears Dry On Their Own, Body and Soul duet with Tony Bennett and and and...oh and Cherry Wine fea NAS...
There is a biopic about her called Amy. It’s on cable.
Women just get what she's saying more than men. She was amazing. Just glad we were blessed to hear her voice. Rip Amy!
Mmmmm men that do music definitely understand
Thank you for this reaction guys ❤️. Have you guys reacted to love is a losing game ? I think you’ll also like it . Amy was amazing .
"Love is a Losing Game" and "Tears Don't Dry on Their Own" live at the church are incredible
She's not talking about heroin, she's talking about darkness, depression, fade to black. Her poison was primarily alcohol. And yes, in uncensored versions; the line is..."kept his d**k wet"
Find a live version of her doing “Valerie” 🤯 her magical soul was too much for this world 🌎
I think it was the other way around, this world was too much for Amy and it destroyed her soul
'You know I'm no good' by Amy is also a classic! You sbould check it out!
I grabbed this Album as soon as it came out. It is fantastic. It features of course her mega hit "Rehab."
When she died, I couldn't listen to any of her songs without crying. It was a year before I could handle listening to :Rehab."
She had such a bright future and her life ended way too soon.
Tears dry on their own is one of my favorite Amy songs! 🎵
You want to have a little fun with Amy Winehouse ?
Listen to “Stronger Than Me” off of Frank.
It’s one of my favorite songs of hers.
Bust out the lyrics and have fun with it!
Oh yeah thats what she said! Loved her. She's missed. ♡♡♡
This vid was like unexpectedly emotional to me😭 you guys are so cuteee together u have great energy, u seem like u have such good connection. But this song I forgot how emotional it was lmao , not me over here crying to a reaction vid😂😭 lovee ur guys's reaction, can't wait to go watch more lol💕
Amy left a huge print on music. Fantastic vocalist & lyricist. RIP, Amy! You are truly missed.🙏🏽
We love you Jai, i'm sensitive too. Touching songs, movies, things that happen to others or animals. I feel you 💕
Thanks for your time. laughed with you guys.
Respect for Amy
Thank you guys for covering Amy she was awesome and so are you guys
Amy ♥️
The song is referring to Blake, who was her boyfriend. He abused her and also did a lot of drugs
Still does
I love yall! So fun and joyous energy.
Enormous talent and shone brightly like the star she was
Amy was so beautiful. So sad.
Yes l always love her. Behind her beautiful eyes at one point you could see the pain.
Love the tone & the harmony of Amy W🎼🤗🤪🌷.
Please do vids together not apart Yoh.
Love the happy good vibes.
Feels awesome.
You rock
Y'all are so damn cute. And, yes, she said that!
He’s like, “Wait...how you relate to her?”🧐
🤣🤣🤣
Good rxn video! Also, I think that funeral represented her going back to black, like the death of her heart.
I've always taken "back to black" as to mean either heroin or Black Label Johnny Walker.
plus also means Blake.
Works on many meanings...
Back to black is a reference of her getting back into her old ways of drug use in the song it says that he loved blow and she loved puff it was a reference of her liking weed and Blake her ex boyfriend at the time loving coke, But they both did multiple drugs because even in the song she is referencing a crack pipe. She later died of alcohol poisoning. The great ones always go too soon...
"Back To Black" also means severe depression.
One of her idols was Frank Sinatra who also suffered from the same illness.
Amy named her debut after him.
He attempted suicide when his marriage to Ava Gardner broke up.
This was an amazing album.
Amy belting out live, Valerie is my favorite. She just chillin in a chair in a green room or some undisclosed location. Chills 🥹
She died of Alcohol poisoning. She was 27 like Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, and Kurt Cobain. This song is about her guy going back to his ex and she goes back to depression.
Oh, we definitely heard that. And it was worth repeating.
