Five Amy Winehouse Great Performances

Amy Winehouse was born Sept 14, 1993 in the suburban area of North London called Southgate. Today she would have turned 40.When Amy was 20, she was interviewed by The Guardian about her debut album, Frank, which didn't agree with the singer. The label chose mixes and songs she did not approve of and the hype, she felt, was not there"Well, the marketing was [bad], the promotion was terrible. Everything was a shambles," she said. "It's frustrating, because you work with so many idiots – but they're nice idiots. So you can't be like, 'You're an idiot.' They know that they're idiots."
