Music Video of the Day: Back to Black by Amy Winehouse (2006, dir by Phil Griffin)


Amy Winehouse.  Her talent is missed more with each day that passes.

This beautifully shot video takes place at a funeral.  What’s being buried?  Amy’ heart, after another failed love affair.  Originally, the video made this clear by featuring a close-up of the tombstone, announcing that Amy had just buried her heart.  After Amy died in 2011, that shot was cut from the video.  That’s an understandable decision and I think it actually adds an extra hint of mystery to the video.  That said, I’ve always wondered if that’s the same decision that Amy would have made if she had some sort of say in the matter.

Enjoy!
