Amy was only 23 when she wrote this. For such a young person to write such profound lyrics just shows what an old soul she was. Rest in peace Amy, never forgotten.
Liam Singh:
Still bringing me to tears in 2021. This woman was ethereal
Jennifer L.:
For you, I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five-storey fire as you came
Love is a losing game
One I wish I never played
Oh, what a mess we made
And now, the final frame
Love is a losing game
Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand
Self-professed, profound
'Til the chips were down
Know you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand
Though I battle blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love, it is a fate resigned
Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game
Jojo brown:
The older I get the more I understand Amy’s lyrics ❤️.
Lucy Naris:
I’ve listened to this album since my teens but only now I truly understand how much pain this song carries. It goes way beyond heartbreak.
Charlotte Butson:
She was so young and fell in love with someone who just destroyed her. She didn’t want fame, she just wanted to sing
PFCD:
The late great George Michael said she was the best female vocalist he's ever heard in his career. He sang this song on his symphonica tour in her honor. Now they are singing it together and it must be Sublime....
Vintage Hifi Hunter:
To me, her most moving and stunning song. Simplicity and beauty. RIP.
Gwyn Nielsen:
Even though Amy was young when she recorded this tune, you'd never know it by listening to her emote. Love can truly be a losing game. Amy had one of the best jazz voices I've ever heard.
Kathy Jones:
Still makes me cry in 2021. Rest in peace Amy you were beautiful.
It's crazy how we are listening to this song again as different people. This song is legendary
mamamia:
I actually feel the pain in her voice, and the words really hit home
Ray Milan:
Such a talented singer, gone far too soon - i can't believe it's been 10 years, but her music will live forever.
Y Jordan:
The lyrics are so beautiful such a gorgeous talented woman miss her so much . The best female U.K. artist ever . ❤️❤️
Steve House:
I was 70 years old last week, this song still brings tears to my eyes, such a shame she died so young, so much more to come from this beautiful talented lady.
Mustafa Ahmed:
For you, I was a flame

I love this girl. As a Mother I just want to hold her,make her better & give her what she was emotionally needed.. Very sad---- RIP,baby girl...xx
Pat Marcoux:
What's loss to humanity. That voice and her beauty is unparalleled. One-of the greatest voices that have ever struck my heart.
The Silures Scribe:
An amazing lyricist, singer and natural creative talent. Forever remembered, Amy xx
Genesis Orozco:
When I was 14 this was my favorite Amy Winehouse song, at the time I thought I understood the lyrics but I came back today and they hit harder than ever
Snypa_FX:
I remember travelling into London with my mum and brother when I was about 14 or 15 years old. When we got into London, not far from islington/highbury area, the traffic was slow but flowing with a stop start rhythm. As we were gradually edging towards the front of a queue that was caused by a set of traffic lights, a beautiful girl that was sitting and waiting at a bus stop to the left of me caught my eye. I couldn't help but stare at her as she sat there and gaze towards the sky, in her own world. Looking at her I could see that her carefree head was in the clouds just watching the day go past.
She then turned her head and noticed me staring at her, we made eye contact. As we paused in that brief but beautiful moment, eyes locked looking at one another, we shared a beautiful subtle smile before breaking into a full on contagious beaming smile, as if we were good friends sharing a private joke and all the passersby were none the wiser.
I thought "wow look how beautiful she is and what a gorgeous smile" and then blushingly I turned my gaze away, not wanting to make it awkward for myself nor her.
Then I thought to myself "Hold on! Was that?!"
I snapped my neck back and realised, Yes! it was indeed Amy Winehouse! She started laughing realising that I had processed, computed and only just clocked on.
I exclaimed to my brother "look!! that's Amy Winehouse there!" He was more focused on the road and the lights up ahead as they began to change green he didnt believe me anyway.
As the car started moving I quickly put my windows down and shouted "AMY!!" She looked and was laughing even harder and then I knew without doubt it was her.
The cars moved off and my moment with her had passed.
I still think of that moment, especially when I go into London, as I usually go past the exact same spot. I think what if I would have got out the car and just took my shot at striking a conversation with her. Just to connect with another human and interact before going on about our days and lives.
She had a beautiful smile. And I can still picture her in that moment.
Niall Mac Giolla Rua:
Even though it’s about break up, on a deeper level it’s about real love, because every time she uses the word, she’s referring to a feeling she pours into every note. You can’t help but feel the effects of such a lavish outpouring of heart. I think this song is a miracle.
Robin Shattock:
10 years gone RIP. The greatest singer of a generation. There was nothing this girl couldn't do with her voice. Succumbed to the curse of drugs and booze. Add her to the list of all the great music that was never made. She's playing with all the other 27 year olds somewhere
AnnemieM:
I can never understand how this woman can just be gone. Her voice was so heavenly.
Paul Morson:
My favourite song Amy did
Such a great talent she was.
Tony Naccarato:
Fabulous torch song, could have been a number one single on charts, Amy was the greatest, to bad people don't know greatness when its right there, we love you all around the world.
bruno de souza garanhuns:
É uma música de outra dimensão 💔🥃🥀🕯️
Janet Wells:
What a voice!! What a song!!! She's very missed.
Kodie Thompson:
A beautiful exposition of "failed love". Oozing eloquence, rawness and impassioned heat-break. Amy was way ahead of her time. She had a unique authenticity, which carried her in front of her peers.
A "one in a million" artist, Rest in peace dear Amy.
Surner Singh:
Hey Amy, a pandemic hit the world in 2020 and your music really made me happy and feel warm during the lockdown.
* f z p e:
15 years since the release of this album.
She was huge back in 2007/2008. I bought the album. I loved her. The , time went by waiting for her to release a new album. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it. And the most shocking thing about it … she flew away ten whole years ago …
Life is a dream. We are fading away.
Ivam SP:
Essa música é simplesmente incrível, sempre arranca umas lágrimas. Espero que ela (Amy) tenha virado um anjinho e encontrado a paz. R.I.P Amy Winehouse :)

Lalita Martin:
I feel so bad for her her life was really tough and everybody just treated her like garbage for no reason Love you Amy Whinehouse And also rest in peace forever 💕💖
Jacqueline M:
I listen to her singing this over and over and I feel her loss so strongly. You can hear hear the sorrow in her voice if you listen. RIP Amy, I miss you!
Marie Kellar:
"Love IS a losing game"...well sang Amy!!!
I truly miss you 😪 RIP sweet angel 🙏❤
Rose Petal:
I was in tears hearing her sing this song toward the end of the documentary on her life. She reminds me of Billie Holliday.
Corpse Squadron:
Crazy how she (whether she took singing lessons or not I don't know don't care) has this all-natural voice that taps into the soul, that most Soul/Gospel trained vocalist can only wish to achieve even with their great skills and all that hard work that goes into that level of singing. Amy did it effortlessly and ... idk One of the greatest singers in my book.
Isisbella Isa:
Essa música é muito triste, toca na alma, dá pra sentir que ela só queria ser amada de verdade.. 💔😪
Eterna Amy Winehouse, sua obra continua viva!!
GracefulDanny:
Lyrically, I honestly think this is one the best songs ever.
WONDERFULLMAN:
Essa mulher era perfeita 😍👌
Granny G:
Her heart was so deeply hurt at such a young age and so early in her career. She was about to bust out and shake some artist up. But the power of addiction and money to use it is almost impossible for anybody let alone a star.
Dave Robertson:
Coming up on 10 years since Amy passed. She sure had a beautiful voice.
Flavor Of the Month:
Saw the Amy doc a few years ago and this song will forever hit that much harder for me. I'm old enough to remember how massive and abrupt her death was but seeing her beautiful soul shine on stage in those recordings despite her tumultuous life in retrospect really made me respect her catalog even more as an adult. RIP Amy <3
Darren Gallagher:
This is so beautiful but haunting.rarely does music touch me so profoundly.
jake:
This is one of the best songs ever written. It’s so beautiful & heartbreaking
Susana Suarez suquia:
Que letra tan maravillosa, es de las últimas cantantes de Jazz maravillosas y su pérdida a tan temprana edad es una tragedia...
Patrizia Rovetta:
Grande Amy una voce fantastica e una canzone bellissima 💛🎶💚
Aileen Zhao:
I fell in love with Amy and her songs in the small course of one hour...
Sea Shells:
I remember this song coming on when I was riding the bus home one morning after working the night shift. Id already listened to tears dry on their own and a couple others and knew that I dug her music. But this song made me fall in love with her as an artist. So emotionally raw and beautiful. Left me haunted in the best way. With the wrong person love really can be a losing game.
andres Monroy:
La voz de Amy Winehouse es extremadamente hermosa y llega muy fácil al corazón, quien sigue escuchando este clásico en septiembre del 2.021.
Maria Sampaio:
Beautiful music, beautiful voice.
macsnafu:
Wow, such a classic, retro-sounding song. I love it! I had no idea that Amy Winehouse would sound like this.
bruce s:
seeing the world trough her pain is sad but also beautiful. the emotions she gives I think, find a way to touch everyone a little different but the same as well. You are missed...
Barry Garafola Jr:
Though her time was short, it was meant to be this way. I believe this soul's purpose was to leave us mesmerized, like she came here and said, "Watch this". You know what her life did to us?...I never met her and yet it feels like the saddest loss of my life, while being one of the greatest gifts. I love this soul, and by today's standards for music, I'm so glad she was in my lifetime. Thank you Amy. I am always moved by this song.
Matheus O. Rosa:
2022 e eu aqui te ouvindo com essa poesia tão perfeita....❤
nick shields:
Beautiful song from the very talented and much missed miss Winehouse.
Ada:
Se te echa de menos. Qué más nos hubieras regalado de tu música maravillosa. Te añoro.
Paul Manning:
Every now and then a voice comes along that makes your heart beat faster as you listen, in fact you are forced to sit up and listen, and then you marvel, how can a voice sound that great, that soulful? And you know that the remarkable feeling Amy instils in you is just going to be with you until you die. This is the magical power that Amy had over us, we that loved her and that sweet husky, ethereal, special voice. I will never cease to wonder at how she used to make me feel, how she touched me deeply, and how I lost something in my life when she passed away. I know that I'm not the only one that feels this way. Such a loss, such a special and rare thing was Amy Winehouse.

The fact that she was real and alive, there was a time when she hadn’t passed. The world really took her for granted.

pohl54:
Never a fan but this song reveals what a huge talent she had. One wonders what she could have done.
Educate Yourself:
Soulful sound from a tortured soul. A feeling that puts goosebumps on my skin. An angelic, fun and mischievous character that could weaken you with her voice. Powerful but fragile, Brilliant but tragic She was a beautiful person no doubt. R.I.P Amy. x
Oswi Roa:
This song is so.... intimate and warm 🥰
Karen Hatton:
You're right: it's a beautiful song. Lots of heart.
kings17court:
Absolutely love it. Usually I like powerhouse R&B/soul vocalists that can belt it out. Amy is more of a vocal stylist who delivers wonderful vocal performances. This song is so mellow and soothing that it almost hypnotizes me.
Mauricio Cadena:
No necesitaba todos Grammys que ganó, lo que necesitaba era amor ❤️
Voando com Bayma:
Saudades IMENSAS desta voz.
Linda Langdon:
She ultimately became a classical chanteuse, for all generations. Timeless and perfectly timed. Pure genius.

Bruce Owens:
Her voice, her phrasing, was as good as any of the greatest female vocalists of all time, not to mention that she was such a profound lyricist. Such a loss.
