A member of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra during her youth, Winehouse signed to Simon Fuller's 19 Management in 2002 and soon recorded a number of songs before signing a publishing deal with EMI. She also formed a working relationship with producer Salaam Remi through these record publishers. Winehouse's debut album, Frank, was released in 2003. Many of the album's songs were influenced by jazz and, apart from two covers, were co-written by Winehouse. Frank was a critical success in the UK and was nominated for the Mercury Prize. The song "Stronger Than Me" won her the Ivor Novello Award for Best Contemporary Song from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors.
Winehouse released her follow-up album, Back to Black, in 2006, which went on to become an international success and one of the best-selling albums in UK history. At the 2007 Brit Awards it was nominated for British Album of the Year, and she received the award for British Female Solo Artist. The song "Rehab" won her a second Ivor Novello Award. At the 50th Grammy Awards in 2008, she won five awards, tying the then record for the most wins by a female artist in a single night and becoming the first British woman to win five Grammys, including three of the General Field "Big Four" Grammy Awards: Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year (for "Rehab"), as well as Best Pop Vocal Album.
Winehouse was plagued by drug and alcohol addiction. She died of alcohol poisoning on 23 July 2011, at the age of 27. After her death, Back to Black temporarily became the UK's best-selling album of the 21st century. VH1 ranked Winehouse 26th on their list of the 100 Greatest Women in Music.

Amy Winehouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your rolled up sleeves and your skull t-shirt
You say, "why did you do it with him today?"
And sniff me out like I was Tanqueray (yeah, yo)
Why you actin' like you're more trouble than Toney Starks?
You need to just walk away like Kelly Clarkson
I know we were free to sleep around town
Now, of course, you were out there messin' around
I would've told you
Once you ghost, you never go back
Try geein' me like I don't know how to mack
I'm a don, and
Top of the line I stay fly, and
Stop tryin'
To keep coverin' the lies, and
Using my credit cards to buy diamonds
We need to straighten this out
Get to the bottom of it all
Let's go before we start the war
Begin with two reasons why we need to talk
And stop poppin' up in my cribs all over New York, and
Death stalkin'
You such trouble and no good
Them fightin' words in my block, and we in the hood
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled
You know that I'm no good
You had to be a nasty girl and try to play me
Play me, play me, play me (nasty girl, nasty girl, nasty girl)
Try to play me (yeah)
Yo
A-yo, I knew you was trouble when I first laid eyes on you
Temperature so hot, the heat just rise with you
Lemme ride with you, talk about your mistakes
You cheated yourself, but these are the breaks
And it'll never be the same again 'cause of old boy
But, oh boy
Together we make so much joy
In the sands, and, oh, what a web we weave
But you played me so I had to roll up my sleeves
And hunt you down, holding the next man's stacks
Now you sorry and trying to bring that old thing back
Act like we can rekindle that flame
It's a shame
How you can't get me off the brain
He that lame
You love how I bring the pain
Got them rug burns stinging, and you saying my name
Say my name, uh
That's right, I'm high post
Get the champagne love, word up, we gonna toast
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled
You know that I'm no good
Yeah, yo you had to be a nasty girl and try to play me
Nasty girl, girl
You can't leave the kid
You can't leave the kid
Don't worry, I'm gonna be around forever
Nasty girl
Don't forget it I'm a be around forever
Don't forget it I'm a be around forever
Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain
We're like how we were again
I'm in the tub, you're on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet
Yo, get to bath and bodyworks pumpin' the spice cream
Together like Cheech and Chong we make nice dreams
These fight scenes
I take the good with the bad
'Cause you give the best brains that I've ever had
Anything worth having is hard to keep
I love you like my coffee, so hot and so sweet
So let's stick it out so we never regret it
I could forgive the past, but I never forget it
I cheated myself like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled
You know that I'm no good
I cheated myself like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled
Yeah, ya know that I'm no good
I could forgive the past, but I never forget it
Nasty girl, nasty girl
Try to play me
Nasty girl
You had to be a nasty girl and try to play me
Nasty girl
Try to play me, try to play me
Nasty girl
I could forgive the past, but I never forget it
In "I'm No Good," Amy Winehouse tells the story of a troubled relationship where her infidelity has caused the demise of the relationship. In the first verse, she meets her partner at a bar where he confronts her about cheating on him with someone else. Her partner is hurt and disappointed, and Amy knows she's no good for him. However, despite her shortcomings, he still wants to be with her. Amy is aware that she is tearing him down and hurting him, and she is helpless in changing her ways.
In the second verse, Amy is in bed with her ex-boyfriend, but she cannot enjoy being with him because she is thinking about her current partner. Her buzzer goes off, and she goes to see him, and he is waiting for her with chips and pita. He reminds her that they talked about marrying each other, but she is not bitter about it. He assures her that there will be no more of her infidelity, and she breaks down in tears of guilt.
In the final verse, Amy and her partner are reunited in Jamaica and Spain. They reminisce about how they used to be in their relationship, and they share an intimate moment. However, her partner notices a small burn on the carpet, and this reminds Amy of the guilt she feels about cheating on him. She is unsure who is to blame for the current state of the relationship, and she concludes that she cheated herself by choosing to be unfaithful.
Overall, "I'm No Good" is a melancholic tune about the consequences of infidelity and the damage it can cause to relationships. Amy Winehouse's raw and emotive vocals add depth to the lyrics, making the song relatable and heartfelt.

Meet you downstairs in the bar and hurt
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull t-shirt
You say what did you do with him today?
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray
Because you're my fellow, my guy
Hand me your Stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear men down like Roger Moore
I cheated myself
Like I knew, I would
I told you, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
Upstairs in bed with my ex-boy
He's in a place but I can't get joy
Thinking on you in the final throes
This is when my buzzer goes
Run out to meet you, chips and pita
You said when we married
Because you're not bitter
There'll be none of him no more
I cried for you on the kitchen floor
I cheated myself
Iike I knew, I would
I told you, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
Sweet reunion Jamaica and Spain

Lick your lips as I soap my feet
Then you notice little carpet burn
My stomach drops and my guts churns
You shrug and it's the worst
Who truly stuck the knife in first?
I cheated myself
Like I knew, I would
I told you, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

I wrote a similar sounding song called Sailing in 1991/92 while in Japan and gave it away to a British yacht club the same year. In honor of Amy, I perform her song using the following lyrics for a male lead vocal. The *3rd verse (marked with an asterisk) contains the lyrics to 'Sailing'.
I'll meet you downstairs at the bar at Hurt
Me, in my rolled-up sleeves and my skull t-shirt
You say "what did you do with him today?"
Did I snuff him out like he was Tanqueray?
Cause I'm your fellow your guy
Hand me your stella and fly
And by the time he flees to floor three
I tear him down like I'm Sean Connery.
You cheated yourself
Like I knew you would
You told that you was trouble
You know that you're no good
Upstairs in bed with my ex Stace,
I'm her toy but I feel out of place
Thinking of you in the final throws
Well this is when her buzzer goes
Run out to meet you, chips and pita
You say 'when we're married..' 'cause you're not bitter
There will be none of Stace no more
As you cry for me on the kitchen floor
I cheated my myself like you knew i would
You told me that you was trouble
You know that I'm no good.
*We left our homes in Hamamatsu
Took to the sky and the sea so blue
Counting on the wind to set us right
We pulled the anchor and sailed into the night
Then I notice little carpet burn
My stomach drops, my guts churn
You shrug, and it's the worst
Who truly stuck the knife in first?
You cheated yourself like I knew that you would
You told me that you was trouble
You know that you're no good.

@@cooljoe1420 We all are heartbreakers, all of our thoughts are evil and all our good deeds are filthy rags.
Jeremiah 17:9 - The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Mark 7:21 - For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
Romans 1:21 - Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
We all were:
Psalms 51:5 - Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Our Life Is Like Unto A Race
1 Corinthians Chapter 9
24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
Why are rich and famous depressed?
lets list the reasons;
they`re trans, faking life 100% daily
their master is lucifer, the father of lies.
they have no looks, needs to fake these,
they have no talent, needs to fake these.
they are famous only a moment.
they are rich only for moment.
To have the moment on stage, wicked and sick ritual must be performed.
They are masons in masonry.
Nothing`s real, only illusions.
They have it harder , to give their soul over to CHRIST and return back HEAVEN (Luke 18:25 KJV and Mark 10:25 KJV)
true Christians are born again = new creatures in CHRIST, able to no longer sin and able to understand GOD perfectly.
We are to make a conscious choosing between GOD = CHRIST and mammon = lucifer.
Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
we since birth live in the devils kingdom, this earth here, it shall be created anew, but not yet, still is the church time = still time for souls to get saved and be raptured up. until we come to repentance and born again, we remain living according to the devil.
devils expectations to us are:
lie/deceive kill destroy remain wicked sinner who praise death daily.
because devil is the father of lies:
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
GOD `s expectations to us:
come to repentance
come out from BABYLON
born again
live holy
do the will of your heavenly father.
Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
1 Peter 1:16 - Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
