BACK TO BLACK (AMY WINEHOUSE)

"BACK TO BLACK"

27.- Día 24 de Junio de 2018.

Hoy le dedico mi humilde homenaje a la cantante británica "AMY WINEHOUSE" (14/9/1983 - 23/7/2011) que lamentablemente falleció hace 6 años con tan solo 27 años. En concreto he escogido su famoso y conocido tema "BACK TO BLACK".

AMY JADE WINEHOUSE tenía una poderosa y emotiva voz y en sus interpretaciones y composiciones mezcló varios estilos tales como el Jazz, R&B, Ska y fundamentalmente el Soul.

En el año 2003 lanzó al mercado su álbum "FRANK" (Titulado así por la admiración que la artista le tenía a "FRANK SINATRA"), con el que obtuvo buenas críticas y exitos. Pero en el año 2006 publicó el segundo y último álbum de estudio "BACK TO BLACK", disco con el que consiguió 6 nominaciones a los Premios Grammy, ganando 5, entre otros: Canción del año, grabación del año y mejor artista nuevo. En dicho álbum podemos destacar los singles: "BACK TO BLACK" y "REHAB". Después del fallecimiento de AMY las ventas se incrementaron considerablemente en todo el mundo, llegando a ser el álbum mas vendido en lo que va de siglo XXI en el Reino Unido con más de 20 millones de copias vendidas. En 2007 ganó el BRIT Award a mejor artísta británica y en el año 2012 AMY fue incluida en el número 26 del listado de las 100 mejores mujeres de la música para la cadena VH1, entre otros reconocimientos.

AMY se hizo muy popular además de por su poder de interpretación en el escenario por otras particularidades como su particular look, su peinado, su glamour, sus tatuajes y sus problemas con las drogas y el alcohol que le llevaron a adoptar conductas autodestructivas. Desgraciadamente la encontraron muerta en su apartamento el 23/7/11 después de sufrir un colapso pues según la autopsia su cuerpo contenía un elevado nivel de alcohol.

TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH:

Today I dedicate my humble tribute to the British singer "AMY WINEHOUSE" (9/14/1983 - 7/23/2011) who unfortunately passed away 6 years ago at just 27 years old. Specifically, I have chosen the famous and well-known theme of hers "BACK TO BLACK".

AMY JADE WINEHOUSE had a powerful and emotional voice and in her performances and compositions she mixed various styles such as Jazz, R & B, Ska and fundamentally Soul.

In 2003 she released her album "FRANK" (Titled thus by the admiration that the artist had for "FRANK SINATRA"), with which she obtained good reviews and success. But in 2006 he released the second and last studio album "BACK TO BLACK", an album with which he got 6 Grammy Award nominations, winning 5, among others: Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best New Artist. In this album we can highlight the singles: "BACK TO BLACK" and "REHAB". After the death of AMY, sales increased considerably around the world, becoming the best-selling album so far in the 21st century in the United Kingdom with more than 20 million copies sold. In 2007 she won the BRIT Award for best British artist and in 2012 AMY was included in number 26 of the list of the 100 best women in music for the VH1 network, among other recognitions.

AMY became very popular in addition to her power of interpretation on stage due to other peculiarities such as her particular look, her hairstyle, her glamor, her tattoos and her problems with drugs and alcohol that led her to adopt behaviors self-destructive. Unfortunately, she was found dead in her apartment on 7/23/11 after collapsing because according to her autopsy, her body contained a high level of alcohol.

LETRA:

"BACK TO BLACK"

(AMY WINEHOUSE)

He left no time to regret

Kept his dick wet

With his same old safe bet

Me and my head high

And my tears dry

Get on without my guy

You went back to what you knew

So far removed from all that we went through

And I tread a troubled track

My odds are stacked

I'll go back to black.

We only said goodbye with words

I died a hundred times

You go back to her

And I go back to.

I go back to us

I love you much

It's not enough

You love blow, and I love puff

And life is like a pipe

And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside.

We only said goodbye with words

I died a hundred times

You go back to her

And I go back to.

We only said goodbye with words

I died a hundred times

You go back to her

And I go back to.

Black…Black…Black…Black…Black…Black…Black

I go back to

I go back to

We only said goodbye with words

I died a hundred times

You go back to her

And I go back to

We only said goodbye with words

I died a hundred times

You go back to her

And I go back to black.
