Good timbre to her voice and all, but that doesn't transcend the rest of the package. Joplin could, Amy can't. Hope the end isn't similar.</P> She always looks like a skank playing dress-up to me.

My quick perusal of YouTube found this “official music video” posted twice, by two users who signed up just in the last two weeks. And there is no mention of this video at any reliable source, such as Amy’s official website or MySpace page, or the YouTube page of user “universalmusicgroup”.

Also, as Amy’s part of UMG, “official” Amy videos can’t be embedded — although it’s not hard to find all of her “official” videos in embeddable form.

So, take that for what it’s worth.

On the off-chance that I’m wrong, and this is some guerilla UMG way to get a video — any video — out there to promote Amy for the Grammys, I wonder why they didn’t just push the video of her performance of this song at the Nationwide Mercury Prize awards ceremony back in September.

It resulted in the best press she’d had for months, after all…

I'm surprised they didn't bring in Flea, Tommy Lee, and Sheryl Crow to lip synch.</p> The scary thing is that it looks less like a “fan-made tribute video” and more like a “and now she’s dead” Grammy tribute.
