The singer - who was found dead at home in London in July - worked with Mark Ronson on a song which was set to be recorded for the last film in the British spy franchise 'Quantum of Solace', but the sessions were abandoned after they reportedly fell out.


At the time, it was claimed Amy - who had a history of substance abuse problems - was unfit to record the track but her long time collaborator Salaam Remi claims the situation was different when she called him to visit her in a London studio.
He said she had told him: "It's this 'James Bond' theme. I don't like the track. They've given me these chords to write to, but that's not how we work."


Instead, the 'Back to Black' hitmaker started on another song with Salaam, which became 'Between the Cheats', one of the songs included on her posthumous album 'Lioness: Hidden Treasures'.


He told NME magazine: "She showed me the chords and I said, 'What do you want it to sound like?' She said 'Doo-wop. I said, 'give me 20 minutes,' so she went off somewhere, I sat down with her engineer, played bass, drums, guitar, piano, real quick.'

"'Is that what you want it to sound like?' she said, 'that'll work' and she went into the vocal booth and sang it."

I don't know the all story. Was Amy set to record Another Way to Die? But she didn't like the song? Could you explain please?

Amy had higher standards . Shed never do some random junk the movie people would come up with out of no where . would have been neat though to hear what she was thinking of doing for a theme song.

Amy didn't do the same song, she wanted to release her own song on the same day the single from A. Keys was coming out, but then she didn't.
I can remember the news, because they were from October 2008 and i saw them on Amy-W.net, i think it's still in the archive
Amy flies in paradise
