One of the most wonderful voices in the music industry – Amy Winehouse, was an English singer and songwriter, famous for her incredible voice.
Amy Winehouse is known for her deep and expressive contralto vocals and eclectic mix of musical genres, singing R&B, jazz, and soul.
She was active between 2002 and 2011 when she died of alcohol poisoning.
Today’s song is Valerie – from Amy Winehouse’s album named Version.
The free Valerie piano sheet music is now an international hit and has been covered by many famous artists, including Bruno Mars – 2011, Louis Tomlinson – 2011, or Santana Lopez.
The Zutons originally released Valerie in June 2006, as part of their album named Tired of Hanging Around.
The free Valerie piano sheets were released as an indie-pop and blues-rock music genre song, with a length of 3:56 minutes.
It was originally written by Abi Harding, Boyan Chowdhury, Dave McCabe, Russ Pritchard, and Sean Payne, with the production of Stephen Street.
The song was written in about 20minutes, as Dave McCabe declares and it was very appreciated by the public and critics once released.
Valerie was used in media in commercials, TV shows, and also during the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
The story behind the lyrics is about an American friend of Dave McCabe, who was in trouble for driving under the influence.
The music video made for Valerie is directed by Scott Lyon and it was set in a prison, featuring The Zutons trying to escape.
Amy Winehouse’s version was released in October 2007 and it went straight on top of the charts, peaking at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart, spending 19 consecutive weeks there.
It has a length of 3:37 minutes and it was released as a soul-jazz music genre song.
The music video made for this version was directed by Robert Hales and it features Ronson and a group of jazz musicians inviting a woman from the audience onto their stage to sing and dance.
