Audiobooks by Mitch Winehouse

Geniusz, źródło inspiracji, ikona – jest wiele słów, którymi można opisać Amy Winehouse, ale to jej humor, wdzięk i apetyt na życie sprawiły, że na zawsze zdobyła sobie miejsce w sercach fanów. 23 lipca 2011 roku rodzina i przyjaciele Amy oraz jej fani na całym świecie pogrążyli się w bólu na wieść, że ta niezwykła, utalentowana i wyjątkowo życzliwa dziewczyna odeszła na zawsze. Tłumy wiernych fanów straciły swoje bożyszcze, a zrozpaczona rodzina – ukochaną Amy. W świecie muzyki niewielu mogło się z nią równać. Jej liryczne teksty i magnetyczny głos od razu wywindowały ją na sam szczyt, gdy w 2003 roku wydała debiutancki krążek pod tytułem Frank. W miarę jak jej gwiazda błyszczała coraz jaśniej, stawało się oczywiste, że ta dziewczyna z północnego Londynu to znacznie więcej niż młody talent. Dziś po raz pierwszy jej ojciec i powiernik Mitch Winehouse dzieli się z nami opowieścią o swojej Amy – córce, którą uwielbiał od dnia narodzin, wielkiej gwieździe i borykającej się z problemami kobiecie. Osobistymi historiami i najbardziej intymnymi wspomnieniami tworzy portret – dziewczyny o wielkim sercu i magicznym głosie. Poznajemy Amy od czasów dziecięcych wygłupów, muzycznych fascynacji, marzeń o sławie oraz historii jej niesamowitej kariery, po najmroczniejsze chwile walki z uzależnieniem. Dzięki połączeniu tego, co osobiste, prywatne i publiczne, jest to niezwykle szczera i wzruszająca podróż przez życie najbardziej utalentowanej artystki pokolenia – wyjątkowy pamiętnik autorstwa człowieka, który znał Amy najlepiej. 'MOIM NAJWIĘKSZYM MARZENIEM jest wielka sława. Marzę, by występować na scenie. To mój życiowy cel. Chcę, by ludzie, słysząc mój głos, mogli po prostu… zapomnieć choć na chwilę o swoich troskach. Chcę przejść do historii jako aktorka i piosenkarka, zasłynąć wyprzedanymi do ostatniego biletu koncertami i przedstawieniami na West Endzie i Broadwayu.' 12-letnia AMY WINEHOUSE Podanie o przyjęcie do Szkoły Teatralnej Sylvii Young

Amy, My Daughter

Candid, compelling, and heartbreaking-a father's story of a talent taken too soon and a legacy that will live on for generations On July 23, 2011, Amy Winehouse's family, friends, and fans around the world mourned the tragedy that this remarkable, talented, and extraordinarily generous young woman was now gone. A legion of dedicated fans had lost their idol; a devastated family had lost their Amy. With this difficult news came an outpouring of love and grief from her fans, along with troubling questions about Amy's very public struggles with drugs and alcohol, as people tried to understand how such a soulful singer had been silenced so young. Now, in this intimate and tender account, her father and confidant, Mitch, offers an inside view of Amy's life as she lived it, putting to rest once and for all the controversies that have long surrounded her. Sifting fact from fiction, he pre-sents a portrait of Amy unlike any other, detailing the events and the people that shaped her youth-from her mischievous childhood to her grandmother's Jazz Age stories, to her father singing Frank Sinatra around the house. Shedding light on Amy's musical coming-of-age, Mitch explores how she honed her distinctive sound, created her unforgettable look, and channeled her own life into hits such as "You Know I'm No Good," "Rehab," and "Back to Black"-some of the most memorable and personal pop music in years. While her beehive hair, larger-than-life voice, and outrageous personality made her famous, her life offstage made her infamous. Here Mitch holds nothing back about Amy's addiction to drugs and alcohol, mixing the painful with the poignant as he describes the realities of her dependencies and the toll they took on the family and friends who refused to give up on her. Revealing the truth about Amy's substance abuse and dispelling many of the tabloid-fueled rumors about her tumultuous marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil, Mitch exposes the years of behind-the-scenes drama that consumed his life and explains how, for those who knew Amy in her last months, the greatest tragedy of all was that she finally appeared to be conquering her demons. Filled with insights into Amy Winehouse's music, photographs from her life, and stories of the real woman behind the headlines, Amy, My Daughter is an emotional journey into music, addiction, and the unbreakable bond between a daughter and her father.
