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
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
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).
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.
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.
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✝️🙏🏽❤
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.
@@DiogenesOfCa From 1982 until 1987 I feared that ska was dead and would never come back. But then it did come back and has been popping up here and there ever since. It's just too good to die!
@@johnnyb8825 don't think so such as Ska it brought a lot of fun into my life. And it was always "the others" who judged me on my smell! 😅😜Hope you'll get a good laugh best wishes for 2020
Leroy Williams i read it wrong since she was always portrayed as a rude individual in news papers. I knew that it had a different meaning in the Ska Genre but i didn’t read it correctly
God bless you girl. You were and always will the greatest vocalist of this generation. Last time I saw you, we was sitting in Snaresbrook Crown Court, gonna see you again in heaven babe.
Amy gave so much to the music industry 🎶Amy will never be forgotten but Always remembered!! A true rebel and a true Rudegirl 🙏🏻🏁❤💛💚🏁 Your Deeply Missed Amy 😔 Stay Rude Stay Rebel RIP...... PS Amy also went to the same school as my good friend Dan Hollingsworth they were good friends then ,who has also passed away in his prime just as Amy did may thay be reunited in Heaven!! 🤜🙏🏻🙏🏻🤛🏾 Your good friend Alan Townson aka Skinhead Al.
Remember listening to this ep as a kid. Amy was one of my biggest idols when i was younger. Rest in peace man. And thanks to my ma for introducing me to ska and the skinhead scene.
love her voice, she was class with the specials at glas' you can see she was thrilled to be with the lads. her intro was class . "the sun is out THE SPECIALS are here you lucky lucky people "
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 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
True talent gone too soon...she joins the greats, and she really could have been one...UNDER-RATED POP STAR....AMY WINEHOUSE YOU ARE MISSED BY ME!!! Thank you for existing at the same time as me....
I am 61grew up ska wen I first heard this girl she had every genre in music going back to Billie holiday I knew she would die young r.i.p she to good for this world x
I love this rude girl 🖤 Im so happy this showed up on my utube!!!🎵🎼🎶🖤💜 I love it!!!! I'm 57 and just discovered sha& skanking!!! I've loved Bob Marley & his son's forever!!!!
Featuring THE most beautiful Ska Ballad ever (wondering now) but would have love hearing Amy version of Mirror in the Bathroom (& see yourself while you are eating :D
this a fantastic find for me, I heard her pure talent and knew her presence but never knew about this SKA, she could sing the alphabet for sure and she was taken too soon, this will be revisited, much love X
Just found this today! I really love this mix. I always wondered if there were some secret tapes lurking...had no idea there was anything ska mixed in there
Been into Ska since 1970. Thank you Amy for brining it to a new generation.
❤

The real spirit of Amy ❤️

Amen!
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.
And she player with the band from original she love ska me to
She played with the toots and the maytals owner of the money man
some people are flattered of course, then pretend like they're hurt to get the money haha
That's true is an honor for the composers and bands
Its a show of respect and admiration is what it is..thats why ignorant ppl are easily sensitive...cause they're...stupid.
Sometimes I just find this when I’m having a bad day and it just makes me feel a little bit better
Sometimes it finds me.
and that's me today...
Same!
I think im dead
Sorry
Ska the most happy music
Rocksteadyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
@Jan Knibbeler
Isn't it just!
Nothing makes me more happy after a long work week than skaturday!
youve got to listen to the hotknives
& most beauty music .....~ Cheers from Greece
God we could use you in 2020 more than ever. RIP love.
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.
Also sang with Prince and got praised by George Michael and Bob Dylan.
Well deserved superstardom.
❤
So true. I was listening to her Reggae pretending i only hear the sounds (no word meanings.) Pleasant and melancholic 🤡💣...Big Thanks!
✝️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✝️🙏🏽❤
The late great Amy, the rude girl is loved by the ska community, God rest her
The most uplifting music that will ever exist! Love ska forever!
Haven't heard this in a minute. Ska will never die.
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!
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.
the greatest 2nd wave ska band + the best soul singer of her generation= happiest sounds made by humans
Couldn't agree more 👍
It's a shame that we lost 2 great singers of Amy and Terry, God bless the pair of them 🙏
Still and always love Amy ❤❤❤
AD 2020 : Toots and Amy can perform together in music heaven now singing this SKA number as a duo.
Nice comment. I miss Toots so much. I grew up listening to his music.
2022
being a huge Specials fan i live this. she did a brilliant stage performance with them, i watched a no of times.
Agreed The Specials!
Great, her voice really fits this style....Her Style! 😊
It made my day not only finding more music from Amy Winehouse but also finding out it's SKA!
I just found out myself!! this is GOLD!!!
Cool, just found this. Never was an Amy fan ever but I love this style of ska. She does a great job
Also check out the track "Just Friends" off her Back To Black LP and her ska cover of "Our Day Will Come."
SKA will never die. What a lady.
Lol we used to say in the early eighties, , "Ska's not dead"!
@Rosida Andriyana you mean : Punks not dead it just smells a littel bit funny
@@nicoleschweer1234 Punk always smelt a bit funny. That was the whole point of it!

a unique voice that cheered you up when you were down wonderful female voice from another planet honestly only respect for Amy 😢🙏💙
Amy never cheers me up. She only makes me sad deep in my heart. Seeing her perform is even worse for me.
One Million Years I heard this and Loved it. Where's the Love button? They hide the fukin' Love button?
Amy's version of Cupid is PERFECTION!
Best version in my opinion
Absolutely
O voce atat de mare intr-un corp atat de mic. Cea mai buna voce din segmentul ei. Respect !
"I don't believe in magic, the boy said. The old man smiled. You will when you see her." R.I.P 10 years ago today
Can never get enough of this girl. So happy to find something new to me. This is f ing awesome.
OMFG! Where has this been all my life? Absolutely amazing! 🔥🔥🔥

rest in peace rude girl!

Amy and The Specials - a very good combination.
Her voice is perfect for Ska music.

Always humble bless her xx
I.get.the.thrill.to.see.a.white.girl.singing.ska.viva.amy.winehouse
It was V festival 👍🏻 was great
One of those real gems, this record is. The skasongs just sits so well with her.
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!!!!
The classic 2 Tone look! I remember the early 80's. This music can never expire.
Rings on her fingers ....Bells on her toes 🙂
Seen the lovely Amy do this with the specials at glasto on the telly and it was awesome loved every minute R.I.P AMY we miss you
Absolutely love this to the max,ska forever ❤❤❤❤
rest in peace ms winehouse i hope shes skanking in heaven
How do you know she's in heaven? Everyone won''t end up there, you know.
true but either way she skanking up in heaven
Only those who believe in Jesus will reach heaven.
nah i say i might go to heaven when i did good things
I'm sorry, but that is not what the Bible says.
Faith and faith alone.
This is soo good! Can't believe I had never heard this before. Such a talent, such a loss 💕
Música 100% Real
Amy winehouse ETERNA
Amy la más grande🎤🎶

Wow...wish I gave her music a chance, sooner rather than later...better late than never, right? R.I.P
Same here
I have adored her version of Cupid for years, and all of these are great, didn't know they were all together on one EP
such a voice!
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 !
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
They really found the perfect tempo for Cupid. 💘
Música para alegrar el corazón siempre. Gracias, muchísimas gracias!
She never die

Longer than that in fact. Ska has been around since the early 1960s. By 1969 it was already called "reggae".
