I can't post the URL because I don't have enough points. I only discovered Amy about two weeks before she died....
But if you can YouTube Mick jaeger and Amy. Maybe it's been posted two million times here already. I don't know.
Remember that Tina Turner taught Mick Jaeger to dance? I love this clip because the veteran, invulnerable Mr. Jaeger is tries to pull Amy out of herself. He tries looking in her eyes. That's a big deal for a performer. That's a magic place. Watch her really relax at times. It's a beautiful thing to see. Two wild souls.
Sometimes music is only just a big show.
Then, sometimes only another musician that can really love and understand another musician and show that by helping inspire courage.
That's how I look at this clip today.

That's o.k. About not watching. But someday, maybe. No sh*t about a big crowd and expectations. But she did it. He helped her, too. But itnwas her that opened up and gave that open-face look that she can give. To me, it looked like she had real moments of forgetting everything and being into the music and the sheer pleasure of performing.
Thanks for turning this up and posting.

maybe it's easy for me, only really listening to her music and paying attention for a few weeks.
I avoided Ms. Winehouse for years because of the media circus. I hate all that drama. It would be very easy for me to feel pity for her by remembering her struggles. So, I guess for selfish reasons, I now try to find that golden place where she shines through all the effort it probably took her to get through even a day of her short life.
There are many clips I will not watch for my own idyosyncratic reasons. Thanks again for the post and your honesty.
