Amy's Last Cry? - This Will Move You - RIP Amy Winehouse (Belgrade, 2011)

I hope nobody takes this the wrong way. This is far from the most flattering footage, I realize, but it's worth any flak if it inspires even just one person to do whatever it takes to save somebody battling the same kind of demons.

This is a video tribute I made to the late great Amy Winehouse by taking the footage from her sad attempt at a comeback in Belgrade and layering on top the audio from one of her best vocal performances. 'Love is a Losing Game' takes on a whole new resonance.

"Love Is A Losing Game"

For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is a losing game

One I wish I never played
Oh what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand

Self professed... profound
Till the chips were down
Though you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand

Though I'd battle blind
Love is a faith resign
Memories mar my mind
Love is a faith resign

Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

What version of the song is this? I can't find it on iTunes but it's my favorite version. Simple and great.

@thedexterbros - Type 'love is a losing game october' into the search bar. It's the first video that comes up.. Am sure you'll feel even more strongly about this version after you see the live studio recording... It's obvious she poured her whole heart and soul into it... Regards

@jakob29club - Thanks for being so honest. That took a lot of guts. I wish you nothing but the best and all the strength that it will take to rise above your condition.

her managers shouldve never let her get on stage like that no matter how much money. it just shows the lack of concern on their part.

[ILUVHORSES1981]

She looks so stoned in this video, it sad she had to die so young.

@NecroticNeurotic what do u mean "Voiceover"? This is noit the song to the video,but it is Def.Amy singing and a video of her in background!..RIP

[NecroticNeurotic]

This is clearly a voice-over. I'd love to find out who REALLY sang in this video. Although I won't speak ill of the dead either. " Amy Winehouse " was too young to die and I hope that her antecedent will do better, in honor of her.

[Katusiaful]

She'is little girl.

[MsHenryTheGreat]

I feel like she knew it was the end.. This is so powerful.

[MsGhurd]

It has been said...alcohol is a powerful lover. It can become more important than family, friends, job and, ultimately, life. It can eventually kill you from the inside. I lost my dad to alcoholism...oh, he lived into his 70's but was lost to me nonetheless. I was SO praying for Amy to overcome her demons, but alas, they stole her soul then her life. I miss her voice and am so sad I will never again hear her on anything other than a recording

[INRIsee]

Its great that you posted this....I know from experience the hell of opiates, or any dope.

If alcohol makes you feel whole- then stay away. I am 52. I have been very successful.

Opiates have almost killed me several times- smack, oc s whatever. Learn to cope

I have yet to learn to cope. If you dont walk through the fire and learn to cope

the fire will burn you up...
