Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse is one of my favorite singer, she has a beautiful voice, I like so much her songs, her style is unique, the way that she sings is original and nice, my favorite songs are "Valerie", "Just friends" "Tears dry on their own," "Moody´s Mood for Love," "Mr. Jones", "Addicted","I heard love is Blind" well, almost all her songs are special for me. So, the next text is a little bit about her life, albums and prizes, I hope thet enjoy this singer as much like me.

Amy Jade Winehouse (born 14 September 1983) is an English singer and songwriter, known for her eclectic mix of various musical genres including R&B, soul, jazz, rock & roll, and ska. Winehouse is best known for her soulful, powerful contralto vocals.Winehouse's 2003 debut album Frank was commercially and critically successful in her native Britain. It was nominated for the Mercury Prize.

Valerie.


Valerie Lyric

Well sometimes I go out by myself
and I look across the water
and I think of all the things
why'd you do it
and in my head I paint a picture

Cos Since I come on home,
well my body's been a mess
and I miss your ginger hair
and the way you like to dress

Won't you come on over
stop making a fool out of me
why don't you come on over Valerie
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Did you have to go to jail
put your house on up out for sale
did you get a good lawyer
hope you didn't catch a tan
hope you find the right man who’ll fix it for you

Are you shopping anywhere
changed the colour of your hair
are you busy
did you have to pay that fine
you was dodging all the time
are you still dizzy

Since I come home,
well my body's been a mess
and I miss your ginger hair
and the way you like to dress

Won't you come on over
stop making a fool out of me
why don't you come on over Valerie
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

But sometimes I go out by myself
and I look across the water
and I think of all the things
why'd you do it
and in my head I paint a picture

Since I come home,
well my body's been a mess
and I miss your ginger hair
and the way you like to dress

Won't you come on over
stop making a fool out of me
why don't you come on over Valerie
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Valerie, Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Why don't you come on over Valerie..


Now try in Sing along
