Amy Winehouse "Rehab" Rapidshare Music Video
Rating: 
Bold looks and a voice beyond her years make Amy Winehouse worthy of note. Here, on the opening number from her forthcoming album 'Back To Black', Winehouse seems to have ditched her jazz influences and headed firmly for the territory of girl groups from the past.
With sweeping strings, soulful trumpets and Christmas bells, 'Rehab' is so retro it almost hurts. It's utterly derivative but works on every level, and with her dark, sultry vocals, Amy has produced a song as rich and decadent as a fabulous dessert.
It's akin to a musical timewarp, albeit with a modern twist, and what could be more of the moment than a track wilfully putting down the notion of rehab? Simply ace.
