well said....she sang jazz from 12,she woz and still an inspiration...the specials were amongst her idols. wot an amazin combination for both of them. miss u ms winehouse xxx
The tiny bit Amy did (so quietly) at the end sounded so amazing- you could have just imagined if she had wailed! I suppose she was just being respectful toward the Specials.
for those saying Amy added nothing, she performed monkey man with them and sang but I guess she wanted to leave them to it with this song and was just enjoying being on stage with them, who wouldnt!
to everyone saying why she was on the stage and not singing much...it wasnt her set, it does say the specials in the backround right. maybe she's just chillin..how do u know the band and her don't have a some kinda bond?? stop putting artists on a pedastil and stop bashing them when all u do is sit infront of ur computer and well.....bash them
Guys, don't insult a fucking dead person. Amy Winehouse was an amazing singer, and she loved jazz probably more than her own life, she loved the specials and I just bet she was nervous as fuck actually singing with them.
@devonrz1 Alright, thanks for the message, I had the Christmas loafers from the good lady,Baracuta Bordo penny loafers, not tassles but fantastic. there's always my birthday see if I can drop some hints Happy new year to you.
Apparently from the comments I'm old now at 41, and I should not listen to the music from my Era. The Specials are apparently over the hill and shouldn't enjoy music anymore. Poor Amy and her family, she had an addiction and sadly died. Please leave us 40 somethings to enjoy our lives, clothing and music. And give the parents and family of Amy a little respect and leave their daughter rest in peace, Merry Christmas, hope I get a few Soul, Blues and Ska CD's and a pair of tassle loafers ; )
@azalea66 the point is that she enhances the "ya-ya-yaaa" and "this towwn" parts a bit and gets some healthy physical exercise on the fresh air plus some vitamin D can get into her skin, not sleeping until her evening gig.... what else.... oh yeah, perhaps someone thought of some increase of the value of the tickets if they get extra celebrities on stage.... not sure about that one, the band being popular enough in themselves
She may have been drunk, but if you don't know, THAT IS the way people used to dance in the 80's. Yes Amy did sing a little bit, but that is because in the actual song their were no girl parts that she could sing. they obviously wanted her there, it was their choice and Amy looked like she was having a hell of a time anyway.
@MrJanesaddiction I wasn't bashing Amy herself. I have her 2 first cd's (don't know if she's made any after that). I would never compare my love for ska, Specials & everything Terry Hall to her though (not in the least!). I just think she proves so well she has no business being there by doing nothing other than .....well, being there.
@MrJanesaddiction I think she's sporting the new line of ska shirts...that would be the reason she's there. Seriously though... Get Amy off the stage, it's not like she's doing anything anyway! And bring back Rhoda Dakar !!! And if she's not available, call Pauline Black!!! These great ladies will KNOW what to do & no one else will do it better!!!! NO ONE else can sing & skank with The Specials or any other ska group.

Rip forever Amy Winehouse 1983-2011.
She's back!! And she looks GREAT!
Amy liked to be on stage for the fun of it whether singing or not.
The tiny bit Amy did (so quietly) at the end sounded so amazing- you could have just imagined if she had wailed! I suppose she was just being respectful toward the Specials.
She was probably a little starstruck they were her favorite band.
She was also really drugged out in this era
@@VictorAtomic This was after Saint Lucia, she was quite sober comparing to 2008.
I watched this set when it was on and absolutely loved the Specials! It is only now that i realise that Amy was on....
Love it. Great version with everyone just have a good time
Impresionante Los Specials!!! vamos todavia !! El Ska no morirá !!
She could have done the wailing bit that the guys struggled on (ya-ya-ya-yadda-ya etc)
I love Amy, and i think, (She's back, GREAT!!)
I saw The Specials at the 1981 Police Picnic near Toronto and I enjoyed myself. Amy Winehouse wasn't even born...now I feel old.
Lyrics very apt for today.................30+ years on!
RIP Terry Hall et Amy Winehouse
love
thanx said what I was thinking!
Super muziek☀️✌️
This is so much fun.
OFFFFF LO MEJOR AUNTENTICOS SE SIENTE LA MUSIK EN LAS VENAS

Thank you Specials, for making Amy's return to the stage so relatively easy and truly enjoyable, for her and for us.
Fantastic band, fantastic woman !!!

To all others who are wondering why Winehouse was on stage: she sang other songs at this performance.
Specials son conocido por la gran amy
damn, cracked out!
wow i would love to hear this recorded when Amy would have a little more time to learn what she wanted to sing. Even this i think is amazing
Ooh.. The trombone solo was fuckin spot on! Goose bumps! :D
Cool Vid ~man
shes cracked out
Anyone else wished Amy sang the song :(
@speedamod well said fella, and I hope you got your loafers! Happy New Year. Ps I think Terry Hall is a legend!
Love the Fred Perry shirt the drummer is wearing.

Guys, don't insult a fucking dead person.

Amy was the BIGGEST skanker!

Miauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!! :(
Amy feel our love.
Specials tight as 30 years ago.
Amy Winehouse is definitely in a ghost town now ...
0.15: Hips don't lie... go, Amy, shake it!
amy winehouse almost literally did nothing in that video.
Rudy C she sings on the song before
Not much of a feat.

Amy's part of a real Ghost Town now.
shame she wasn't able to nail it :( luv amie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Caralho! A Bandeira do Brasil ali; hahaha

Terry Halls Terry Blair And Anouchka single Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes is back up!
lol she sang the last 10 seconds! and just to say "this tooown"
@azalea66 yeah SPECIALS RULE!!!!!!!!!!
featuring Amy Winehouse?! she just stood there (???)
thinking that myself - didn't sing at all. A cracking live version of Ghost Town, but including her name seems a bit pointless
@pawnsacrifice1 sure you have
So this is basically 'Specials - Ghost Town while Amy Winehouse just stands there'. No bloody respect to our national anthem at all.
@jhnm156lol! got to love a yank who actually uses the term *broad*
Featuring Amy Winehouse *just kinda standing there*
@Cnutlyass your wish has been granted! :P
Bad so bad. The years have not been so kind to them never mind
haha look how she dance
Skankers hating. I have, officially, seen it all.
Alessandro de Souza
@GLove39 .... I'll say..haa haa haa!!
@louda01 you should be kidding. she`s amazing dude.... she have a true british story just like the specials.
It might be the Concert but theres FUCK-ALL atmosphere there!!
@kafcin I'm sure she said 'Are you Bringstreen, disiau Bringistreen? after about a minute, and at the beginning, she wiggled for a bit..........
@MrJanesaddiction I wasn't bashing Amy herself. I have her 2 first cd's (don't know if she's made any after that). I would never compare my love for ska, Specials & everything Terry Hall to her though (not in the least!). I just think she proves so well she has no business being there by doing nothing other than .....well, being there.
@azalea66 I was thinking the same thing
She's on a melt-down. Very sad.
@djh93x would love to tap that one... :)
Without Jerry Dammers, no Specials.Just another Amy's backing band.Even if she barely sings.
@youngkar no, that's amy winehouse
Don't do drugs, do the SKA!!!
It's what she _didn't_ do that makes it so impressive
Incidentally. Where does Winehouse fit into all this?
Sorry I never got the whole Amy Whitehouse thinng..I've heard people down the pub who can sing like that
The Specials NOT featuring Amy Whitehouse Ghost Town!
where's the horns???
@MrJanesaddiction I think she's sporting the new line of ska shirts...that would be the reason she's there. Seriously though...
Get Amy off the stage, it's not like she's doing anything anyway! And bring back Rhoda Dakar !!! And if she's not available, call Pauline Black!!! These great ladies will KNOW what to do & no one else will do it better!!!! NO ONE else can sing & skank with The Specials or any other ska group.
@devonrz1 ok!
The singers look like Rob Riggle from Step Brothers and the dad from Friday lol
What fucking racket...some things are best left alone
.....still fancy terry hall
Smackrat
@azalea66: drugs??
@TheManchesterLass LOL
