Amy Winehouse`s father too upset to watch latest video

Singer Amy Winehouse`s father can`t bear to watch the video to accompany her latest song, because it reminds him of her.

London: Singer Amy Winehouse`s father can`t bear to watch the video to accompany her latest song, because it reminds him of her. Mitch Winehouse gets upset when he sees the archive footage of his daughter - who was found dead from accidental alcohol poisoning in July, aged 27 - collated for her track `Our Day Will Come`, reported Contactmusic.
"I just almost watched Amy`s `Our Day Will Come` video. She is so lovely," he tweeted. The song is a cover of Ruby and the Romantics` 1963 single, recorded in 2002 and included on the posthumous release `Lioness: Hidden Treasures`. Producer Salaam Reimi - who had worked with the `Rehab` singer on her albums, `Frank` and `Back to Black`, as well as on the posthumous compilation - says it will serve as a poignant reminder of the star`s talent. "Lots of people are going to want to remember other aspects of her life, but what we have here highlights that musically and creatively, she was the tops. She was a great musician and a great songwriter as well. She wasn`t a musical fluke," he added. While the album collects a number of previously unreleased songs by Amy, her record label, Island, has promised to honour a request she made that a further 12 songs recorded before her death never be made public. `Lioness: Hidden Treasures` will be released on December 5 with one pound from every sale being donated to The Amy Winehouse Foundation, set up after her death to help struggling young people.
