  • i love when she sings "like Sarah Vaughn"!! its sooo sassy!

  • aww i feel bad that she missed the note because she seemed really upset.

  • i'll always remember you like this <3

  • miss u amy

  • que tristeza, ya no esta mas...

  • @Sibs1990 i admit my defeat. you beat me

  • @Sibs1990 or maybe in hell

  • I'm insanely obsessed with this song...

  • Wow! this is my favourite song my lovely Amy and I have never heard her sing it live until now! she's GOLD!!!!! I love her, she had so much more to give but maybe it was just for the angels! (no bad comments please - let me have my moment) xxx

  • AMY

    you & your music are unforgettable . . . forever . . eternal . . immortal!

    Thanks for your precious gift!

  • O God. I fucking love her ! 3:19 the best moment ! You can see that she was a perfectionist .

  • LOL.......She gets pissed 3:15 when she doesn't hit that note. Love it.

  • RIP Amy

  • Its so nice looking back at a time where Amy had such grace & beauty.

    I hope this is how everyone remembers you. It is certainly how I will.

    RIP Amy, we have lost a great modern legend. Commiserations to all those who were close to her.

  • Amy was the morning now she's gone

    She's reborn like sarah vaughan

    And in the sanctuary she has found

    Birds surround her sweet sound ♥

  • she wrote this song for her canary

  • That's interesting how she says at the end it was about a bird who's now dead. I feel it's somewhat about herself too and she is now dead, such a shame, I will miss this voice. RIP AMY!

  • Amy was the morning, now she's gone :(

  • The voice of Amy sounds just awesome !!!

    Rest in peace Amy

  • Ciao angelo...

  • She looks great here...Wish she would have sought help.

  • @karenram65 She looks amazing! So healthy and simply beautiful!

  • She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan

    In the sanctuary she has found

    Birds surround her sweet sound

  • GUUUUURl...U R BAAAAD...THANKS FOR U !!!!

  • Crazy ass bitch but she's a hell of a singer... R.I.P. Amy <3

  • It sounds like maybe she mixed a bit of 'Lullaby of Birdland' into this. She once said in an interview that her own music was a 'reflection of what i'm listening to' or something to that effect. There's a passage in here where her vocal melody sounds like it's practically straight out of lullaby of birdland.... and the song is about a bird... Well, whatever the case of that little theory, Amy was brilliant.. R.I.P.

  • damn she looks really good here.

  • I can't listen to ANY of her songs without realizing how ironic the songs are. God today is just horrible, I hope she is in paradise...

  • So beautiful. RIP Amy

  • S.L.N.

    1983 - 2011

  • She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan

  • por dios mi Amy como te voy a estrañar...

  • Жаль что раньше я не интересовался её творчеством. Такой печальный повод как смерть заставила меня сегодня целый день слушать её песни. Она неподрожаема.

  • I love her live! Her writing skills are crazy! She speaks to the listener on so many different levels.

    She was so pissed that she missed that high note, but she still went for it with full force. She's so mesmerizing that even a flat note can't take away from the performance. Awesome!

  • Totally agree... that is my favorite part of this performance... she get's pissed at herself for that and shows it...she is unappologetic about every thing she does... a true gal.

  • Amy had so much meat on her then! Then or now...I'll always love her!

  • no! thought this was incredible string bAND. enuff already.

  • I miss curvy Wino... She is so much more gorgeous!

  • very good!! = )

  • she should sing "you've changed" by sarah vaughn.

  • God I love Amy Winehouse. I have ALL of her songs, and I love watching it live like this one. Get better Amy we love you.

  • Amy is one of the few singers who sounds better live

  • she was lookin good! ooh amy you need to get back like this.

  • doesn't she look so much better here.

    but i love the beehive XD

    the only singer in the charts that makes me go "wow".

  • amys the best

  • hmmmmmmm.......

  • Do u somebody know what is the song about?

  • her bird, Ava

  • Lots of stuff. Her admiration for Sarah Vaughn - melody is taken from SV's "Lullaby of Birdland", see watch?v=x8cFdZyWOOs. AW's lamenting that great singers like SV ain't no more. Whilst hinting, rather cheekily, that her own vocal skills might be some kind of reincarnation. The idea of SV is mixed up eith the actual death of her pet birdie, Eva. She used to listen to the bird, just as she grew-up listening to SV. This high level of poetic inspiration is why AW is a great lyricist. Fab musician

  • Amy has a strong attachment to animals; Ava (named after Ava Gardner) was her bird that passed away. She sang "Lullaby of Birdland" to her like Sarah Vaughn.

  • Thxs! Useful to know. Happy 08. x andrea

  • luv it!! rox my sox

  • It's nice to see that she wasn't always a cracked-out bag of ass with poofy hair.

  • Love this version of this great song!

  • This live differs so much from album version.

  • THIS IS SOOOO AMAZING!!! I love Amy like this!!! GET WALL Ms. Winehouse!!!

  • oh my god....who is this??? compared to amy now, this shyt iz heartbreaking...her voice is a true gift!! man i miss this amy right here!!

  • amazing!

    happy birthday amy!

  • really good

  • My favotite song! ;)

  • I love this song, this when amy was actually amy

  • Most times when I am listening, I sit immobilized... stunned by the talent. It just doesn't get any better!!

  • could somebody tell me when and where did it take place ?

  • Baden Baden, Germany 2004, SWR 3 New Pop Festival

    :)

  • thanks a lot!

  • "spoke until one day she couldn't be heard.....she just stopped singing" please don't let that be you Amy.

  • @tllnc Sadly...

  • The lyrics to this song are so incredibly macabre and obsessive like a Hitchcock film, and this is why Amy is a little genius

  • how are they macabre and obsessive? they are simply poetic metaphors for the loss of a pet.

  • Well every person's interpretation of a song is individual and unique and for me the second verse has a dark sinister aura about it.

  • i completely understand and agree with you...hitchcock is a nice comparison:)

  • simply revolutionary

  • SHE SOUNDS AMAZING LIVE HERE!!!!!

    now whenever she performs theres no energy or soul put into it ...i pray that she sorts herslef out soon...before it's too late

  • I enjoy musicians the most once they've lost it and are teetering on death. I don't wish drug addiction on anyone, except talented musicians. You could live 60 boring years after you hit twenty...or you could live on the edge for a few years accumulating as much life experience/stress/drama, etc as you would in a long, typically mundane life...

  • I can't say that I agree with you, but I do understand what you're saying - Janis Joplin comes to mind.

  • It's too sad she took herself so deep into drugs and self destruction. she is so talented

  • I love this song. Its said that Amy wrote this song about her bird Ava. Amy went away for the weekend and forgot to feed her causing Ava to die. I think its really different that amy took a song about her dead bird and tied it with "Lullaby of birdland" a song that was performed by Sarah Vaughn.

  • She looked so cute back then...with none of her tattos and drug addictions....it will be so nice to turn back time...or just recover the great artist that is inside her and just throw away the pathetic crack head who is making all headlines for all the wrong reasons now days...

  • and ava flies in paradise

    Amy i love u

    i love all youre songs

    you re my idol

    and your voice rocks my world!

  • This is the best version of my fave song of all time...

    I can listen to this for hours and hours, and I just keep on repeating the last minute, and the part where she looks so pissed at 3.20 Ghehehe... That's some funny shit!:p

  • Comment removed

  • its cause she didnt get the high note...love how she shows che cared bout her voice....now its like she doesnt give a shit whether or not she sounds good.

  • Lullaby Of Birdland - George Shearing Lullaby of Birdland that's what I always hear when you sigh Never in my woodland Could there be words to reveal In a phrase how I feel Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo when they love That's the kind of magic Music we make with our lips When we kiss... How is that similar to "October Song"?
  • llkaZapata - if you listen to the album version of the song, she uses the same melody for the chorus . . . "Eva was the morning, now she's gone. she's reborn like sarah vaughn..." It makes sense because October Song is about a pet bird of hers that flew away. I love how she says "i sang a lullaby of birdland every night" (after her bird flew away) and then you can hear it in the chorus. Lyrically and musically, i think its genius, not poor at all. One of my favorite songs of hers.

  • Yea Kids! Dig Jazz.

  • this is my favorite version of "october song"

    I LOVE IT!!

  • she looked a lot better.

    she wasn't as skinny as she's now

  • she was stunning

  • i agree, but lets not say her prime has already passed...

  • There a lot of things in life that a person would like the use of a time machine and the riches that would come with it, but I, personally, would add this concert as one of my reasons for needing one. I wonder if the people at this concert fully understand how blessed they were to see Winehouse in her full prime? This concert would certainly be one of the riches I would like to add to my life. Simply incredible!

  • Extremely well put.

  • I wish she would return to this "look". So sexy

  • i agree with all comments..... i hope for her sake and arts sake that she is able to get herself out of the shite she's put herself into....

  • Amy should see this, how great she was a few years ago...

  • Well, she would be embarrassed! SHe's so beautiful here!

  • she took a lot of this from lullaby of birdland

  • ja da war sie noch fit

  • "Back to Black," while fabulous, is far less complex than this "Frank" material. I heard her say in an interview that she wanted to do something less complicated, and doo-wap thing she was into at the time gave just that to her.

    I have to ask myself, however, with the degree of her f*cked-upness, could she even perform these songs now?

    I just hope that she isn't like Ava her "beautiful bird" in this song, who "sang until one day, she couldn't be heard."

  • Very well said. I couldn't agree more. It's like being "ripped off". The Amy in this video, the Vixen, super talent, etc.. and the composer of Frank is gone. It's a shame. It will be interesting to see what she can come up with next.

  • Better, songs, band, voice, and look. Although Amy is still amazing under the influence. She passed a great stage. She sings like an angel here. I really want her Frank days back.

  • beautiful

  • It's perfect, truly perfect..

    Her voice has changed (because of cigarettes ?) But it's still awesome.

    I love the way she says "my beautiful bird"

    Can someone say that she's not a good singer after THAT !!!!!??!!?! I cried so many many many many times after listened it....I have a real passion for birds..

    Too much love and...rage in this song.

    Love you AVA love you AMY

    RIP

  • If you listen to her lyrics, you will understand why she purposely imbedded a verse to the melody of "Lullaby in Birdland." It's brilliant, and here any fool can see that she's brilliant. I have not been inspired as much by an artist in I don't know how long, and I lament her present descent into addiction; she's lost her high range and is often sloppy as hell in her performances. This is flawless...I adore her.

  • i love amy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • it's not stolen lol The tune the band is playing may sound similar to other songs but on the actual album the tune is way different lol

  • its lullaby in birdland ... and this ROKS:P

  • I don't understand why people bothers of writting something bad on the videos of artist that they simply don't like.

    just, i don't get it, amy rocks

    by the way, most of artist take something of poems,old songs or whatever

  • I've been looking for a live version of this song for so long....

  • I love this song, I dont care if everyone think it's stolen, or the lyrics are stolen.

    I say: Bull shit!!

  • So soulfull... damn...You sexy thang!

  • Amy tem um enorme futuro !!!

  • Just amazing!

    I love this song, and also the lyrics!

  • I love amy winehoues

    i hope she get's everything together and comes out with a new album, her talent is to amazing to waste

    peace(V)

  • i wouldn't call it a ripoff, yes it's clearly words put to the original tune. i consider it a tribute or an interpretation per se.

  • call it what you want.  sampling is a reality in todays music scene, sorry if that offends you. to each his own. personally, I enjoy this version very much...

  • haha it's not actually cuz this song was never released into the charts !

  • Lullaby of Birdland--Written by another English person George Shearing. All English

    suck on that.......

  • sounds nothing like it lol and i can see were your coming from but on the cd the backing is completely different !

  • Damn that girl got pipes and skills, she never sounds the same always better like a jazz instrumant in the hand of a great improv. Please REHAB grammie baby

  • can't take mu eyes off

  • wooow this is fantastic great

  • i love her when she was younger she still is great but wow she was much better then!

  • this is the first time I heard this song. it's great! She was so pretty when she was younger and happier. Before the drugs. I hope she gets better.

  • She is so adorable

    the lyrics freak me out

    they are so great!

  • close to a perferct woman !

    very nice !

  • How long ago was this? 2003/2004?

  • gosh, she looks&sounds so good here. x
