Amy didn't cover Addicted, she wrote and started performing the song in late 2004. The View did do a nice cover of the song, tho. I'm glad you put the link up there or I probably never would have listened to it.

I think "O'Sole mio" was not a proper recording by Amy but just a parody made by Amy during a radio session.

Amy performed "Night time is the right time" along with Jamie Cullum and several other singers at Hootenanny 2004. You also forgot to include Lately, Body and Soul, Summertime, To Zion (recorded with a cell phone after the Grammys), Doo Wop, Be my Baby (with Katya Buena), Ain't Too Proud to Beg (feat. The Rolling Stones) and Fly me to the Moon.

On the other hand, I wonder if there are more Specials' covers (Amy mentioned during an interview at Album Chart Show that an entire tribute album was recorded back in 2006).

'The Nearness Of You', she covered Sarah's Vaughan version I think, definitely not Norah's

 

Also 'Maria' by Santana... is that when Amy sang it along at cafe in 'Amy' doc?

Any info on this then please? When and where?

I dont really know where, as it has not surfaced, but a while back, somebody leaked it on the r/amywinehouse subreddit, it was perfect quality, i couldn't download it, i wish i had've, It Sounded like from around frank era though (2004).

[TakeTheBox03]

They closed the subreddit for awhile, then recently brought it back up. probably deleted some of the leaked stuff. the OP of the topic deleted it before anyone but me and maybe 2 other people saw it, i contacted them, they responded

 

I Couldn't Save It From The Page Either, The Original Poster Deleted It Before I Could, He Left A While Back.
