Check out the official snippet for Beyonce and Andre 3000‘s take on the Amy Winehouse classic, ‘Back To Black‘.
Lifted from ‘The Great Gatsby‘ track, the pair’s unique version of the song should come as a welcome surprise to those who doubted Bey‘s ability to take on the raw cut, reworked to fit her tone.
We love it, so listen and weigh in below!
OK.
We’re just going to come out and say we’re not feeling Andre’s contribution…at all. Lacking the human touched that made the original what it is, we’d say this version could have done without it.
This, going some way to sully the gem that is Beyonce‘s voice on the track, packing a gentle honesty we met on cuts like ‘I Care‘ and ‘I Miss You‘ two years ago.
In all honesty, as genius as Andre is, we’re a little surprised that this is the route he took with this- experimental when simplicity would have sufficed.
Catch ‘Gatsby‘ when it hits the big screen on May 10th.
I love it, so unique and different, glad it isn’t anything like Amys version.
Shut fat ass
That was weak – sorry. Some songs should NOT have been touched.
PREACH!!!!
LMAO are you deaf b**** that was worse than bowdown actually nothing is worse than bowdown
NICE!
I love Andre 3000’s part
Really????
I feel like it clashes with Beyonce’s voice.
Nice!
Not feelin Andre on this track and so far it sounds like Beyonce’s voice lacks the same emotional depth Amy had on the song but maybe my opinion will change when I hear the finished product.
This is only my opinion based on what I’m hearing NOW!
sl-LUT!!
Luv you too :*
andre 3000 part isn’t needed at all…
Her voice sounds s***. I thought it was the full song though
I kinda like it.
I like it!!! I hope she makes future songs like this
I like it. She definatley made it her own without trying to outdo Amys original.
I love Beyonce but I’m hating these songs you are putting out right now.
She looks pretty in the picture. And I like the chill vibe of this song too.
this sounded like v***** belch to me #q****
Poor Amy Winehouse. 🙁
This thieving B**** just cannot keep her hands of anything. She wishes she had half the artistic/musical genius of Amy. 🙂
Anyway, even if her “stans” like it, both Mr. & Mrs. DO NOT!!!
When are you going to report that @Sam/TGJ?
This s*** is just a F****** MESS, but I like Andre 3000, so i’ll give it a pass on his behalf.
Its alright but i feel Xtina would have done a better job… kudos for not f****** it all the way up bey
chile pleeeease!!! oinktina would F*** it up TOTALLY u b****!!
Pigtina doesn’t need to b doing any covers. The way her as butchered and f*cked upt the National Anthemn. Stay ur ass away from other people songs.

Maybe she should steal some new vocal cords…that might help her get a few moregrammys and some respect…remain seated ho e!
Nah, not at all!
I like it when she holds back on her voice like that. Shes very versatile.
such a disgrace to Amy’s legacy.
Bey stick with what you know. p**** popping.
lol….
I agree. Amy was white, but she had more talent and soul like Donny hathaway and Nina simone that THAT GHETTO N**** WITH BLONE WIG.
WHO DARE SHE? NO WONDER, RIH SHUT HER MUSIC DOWN. RIh would no better than to mess with a legend like AMY.
Rih knows she can’t sing…
B**** sit yo raggedy ass down. Pigtina disgrace the history of America. By f*ckin up the Star Spangle Banner. She should b n jail.
dead
Oh hell no!! She has no type of soulfulness to her voice this song doesn’t fit her at all…
I have a feeling it was Mark Ronson who had something to do with this going ahead since he wrote and produced the song and is managed by ROC Nation now. But anyway, I like the direction they took with it.
I love itbey is one of the kind she have that raw talente their is no one like her I can’t wait to buy it god bless you bey
So her Album Title , release Date , Her Tour Book Found Their way to the internet and @TGJ are still Silent about it ? But they follow rihanna daily ?!
This Tells you who’s is @sam’s Real Fav….. 💡
STFU FLIP FLOP C*NT!
What leaked?
Fantasia would have slayed this s*** right here she lacks emotion in her voice im so sorry Amy
NO wonder amy winehouse dad is pissed. WHAT IS THIS CRAP? HOW DAR THESE GHETTO wack n****’s take AN iconic song from LEGEND AMy and ruing it. THEY have made into ghetto hood RNB joint.
Back to black, Nuclear, Grown women, I been on and Bow down. BEYONCE IS DONE. There is nothing left. LEFT HER TOUR HER PAST legacy and bow out gracefully . None of these songs can compete with Taylor, Katy, GAGA, rih or adele. Even JT. Though she 41, the songs are really really really bad, her music was better when she was claiming 17. Her music is really wack now. There is no emotion or teh level of songwriting is so bad.
Amys dad is pissed becausese if it went ahead he wouldn’t have got any money. Hes a disgrace to Amy himself, selling stories about her when she was alive and then auctioning off her s*** so soon after she died. Anyone he cant see the £££ in his eyes is blind.
who*
Dont care. Amy loved her dad and she left her empire to her folks.
BOTTOM LINE, BEYONCE MUSIC IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE, AND THEY CALL THIS h** a legend? She is just and RNB singer who has goo run and now THAT IS OVER.
ALL OF RIH SONGS S*** ON BEYONE, especially the new stuff this 41 year is dropping.
I didn’t realise her music was even properly out to judge. But whatever, you will dislike anything Beyonce so does so its not coming from a rational stand point.
Bow down
Been on
Grown woman
Nuclea
Amy cover
VS
Diamonds ( rememeber Rih has her songs as snippest on itunes too )
Stay
Love without tragedy / mother mary
Pour it up
What now
Sorry but do not compare this OLD WASHED UP H** FLOP TO A LEGEND LIKE RIH who is getting better.
-___- I mean her album.
FACE IT! SHE WILL NEVER TOP THE CHARTS AGAIN – THAT INCLUDES THE UK TOO.
In terms of her album? 4 flopped and 5TH album did not drop in April as she TOLD GQ IN FEB.
IT IS OVER.
We shall see.
#Sigh its not supposed to sound like Amy chill out. We all know they have completely different voices and I like that they didn’t do a similar sound because it shows shes not trying to compete with the original.
A Mess.
Probably Won’t Even Chart/be Noticed.
YUP!
Just like all of beyonce songs. I mean from this, to nuclear, grown woman, i been on and bow down……Rih music is better than this.
They are All a HOT Mess , “I’mma grown womeh……” 😆 😆
exactly what you can expect from b****** with 5th grade education.
She’s DONE for Good.
She’s wack yet she calls her self king she’s not even versatile enough to do a song like this it comes off so fake coming from her. smh
Yup , No emotions or whatsoever , B**** think she can do it all and better than the Originals…………..
She’s Just a Glorified Aging Copycat H**, Just look at the damn Pic , AGING!
YES! I agree, BEYONC IS DONE FOR GOOD. She just not have what it take to compete anymore. NONE OF HER SONGS ARE HITTING! This is why her LP did not come out in april, as she stated to GQ.
@Young Ri none of her songs were released dumbass.
only 2 dislikes ?!! I want 20 Dislikes for this you BeyFlies 😉
S*** nobody takes your comments seriously…you are a bandwagon stan…next week Bey will be your fav artist…FOH! kiii
Wow. This is terrible. Andre 3000 sounds ridiculous and Beyonce lacks any kind of emotional connection with the song. Hate how they’ve changed the lyrics around too. Everything about this is so unnecessary.
Smh this is about to get 200 comment this really isn’t that serious how can you judge a one min and 30 sec i just don’t get this site and all it’s buffoonery i’ll wait for the whole song thnx.
Lmao!!!!
This has to be a f****** JOKE did they seriously let this basic b**** do a cover to the legendary Amy Winehouse& f*** it up smh the dude on here was trash aswell
The only thing “basic” is the homewrecking s*** you stan for! Wat is her talent again?……… O ok..making dxcks disappear in thin air kiiiii…you need a whole row of seats off to yourself
LEAVE BEYFLOPCE ALONE ITS NOT HER FAULT SHE’S AN UNORIGINAL DEFORMED BODY THIEVING W**** WHO DESTROYS CLASSICS.
Its not even bad (although it could’ve done without Andre 300). People are just using Amy now as an excuse to drag Beyonce. Such phoneys.
No our queen is a fat slobby w**** who destroys classics
how to turn a masterpiece into getto trash …this is so disrespectful towards Amy.
Poor amy 🙁
Ghetto trash= 7’2 ft extraterrestrial jug head s*** smoking weed while tipping strippers! Kiii
Her voice sounds pretty imo.
lmao beyonce is becoming the joke of the years first bow down & now this? she tries so hard.
year**
Yeah
I predicted that though!
How many times has cassie tried tho? And FAILED! KIII BEYONCE got u girls beyond pressed…i just cant see myself keeping up with Lassie and Rihject! Lmaoooo get ya life #undercoverstan
The last thing Beyonce wants to be back to being black
Just goes to show how much of LEGEND AMY IS DOING BLACK MUSIC AND How much BEYONCE WILL NEVER EVER EVER BE A LEGEND. BEYONCE WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO DO AN album as good as back to black. Even though AMy is dead ( sadly ) her music STILL SHITS OVER ANYTHING BEYONCE HAS DONE.
In fact Love is a loosing game>>>>>>>>>>>>beyonce whole career. Excluding Black american’s. People will remember AMy 20 years from now over bEYONCE.
Beyonce cannot match up to Tina, Ella, Nina, Whit, Mariah, Diana Ross AND EVEN RIH.
She was never a legend.
Girrrl u can break ya fingers off typing all those lies but that wont make em true! I can smell the steam coming from that mug kiii…funny thing is the people you just named Beyonce has either performed with them or they have praised her! #FAIL! kiiiiiii
So lets see LEGENDS OPINION vs. a bumpy face preteen rihject lover’s opinion??? Kiiiiii i think we know who won!
OKay, I am a lamb and I do not understand why people do not want to call Beyonce a legend. She is def a legend in the game. I sometimes can’t get down with her fans&their way of talking crazy (and also the devil worshiper claims….but i do not know her so i can not say that is what she does) but I can see that Beyonce is the s*** when it comes to her name.
I was there when she first hit the scenes and she was not liked then and she is not liked by some now, for the most part you know her name, you seen her, she is everywhere all the time. She is named as one oF the DIVAS. hER CAREER is crazy good, her accomplishments are crazy good……she is a legend……sorry but it is true
People will hate on anything…. smh. Beyonce sounds great. Its not a competition between Bey and Amy…damn
No b**** you beyonce stans just like anything she does & cant handle the truth
LMAOO *looks @ your name* ENOUGH SAID kiiii
again…this is EPIC honey!!!
I like it. NO its not like Amy did you really think it was gonna be? Good job so far of what I am hearing.
Amy wouldn’t approve…
She is 41.
Bow down
Nuclear
I been on
Grown woman
AMy ruined cover
No wonder rih tweeted ” the joke is on you ”
No wonder she wrote on instagram ” I am phucking emabarrasing you ”
Bey is becoming a joke. What she should do is rap the tour and BOW OUT BEFORE SHE IS FORCED, cos you will never see her at the top of the again!
smh
Beyonce has been spending way to much time with Rita W****. Her muisic has become as bland and wack and lifeless as Rita whorre.
..the fact that you can name EVERY snippet Beyonce has released this year<<<< kiiii…none of them were singles OR full songs yet you're trying to discredit them like they were full official releases….the only joke i see is your obsession with hating my queen….kinda pathetic eh? Kiiii
People are not genuine on here at all. They don’t give a f*** about the fact shes covering Amy, they will just drag Beyonce regardless.
This not a competition between Beyonce and Amy people need to grow up.
Yes! Amy became a legend with one song: rehab and beyonce just a fat black rnb singer who lucked out and now he luck is finally over.
Hmmm I could listen to this with a nice spliff and brandy on a rainy day.
Lets be real. The last thing Beyonce wants to be back to is black
WOW stop over exaggerating this sounds cool. Its only like 20 seconds of her voice anyway from what we have heard.
Ooooo no honey this is just BAD
Beyonce could cover her on song and ppl would hate. The haters aren’t even commenting on Andre’s contribution, but the 20 seconds you hear Beyonce is a disgrace…the f*** outta here.
Are the hive in hiding weres king b>rihanna h20 n the rest of the hood hive they dragging yo b****. ..lol
Lmaoooooo
Im sure they’ll come sooner or later.
She been such a disappointment this year… get it together gurl….
Cool. Very unique take on a classic.
The lana del rey track is better tbh
Beyonce didn’t mess up at all she sounds good and not like shes imitating Amy. If she did more people would say shes trying to outshine Amy. The girl cant win. Andres part is the horrible part.
*slightly shakes head* sounds indeed weird. seriously not cool to ratchify that nice track with that ghetto instruments and electro garbage.
i think its nice
smh i hate that beyonce try to sound s*** in it the song is about heartbreak just WHY WHY? and still trying figure out the rap part i love andre but this aint it
Hun can the full song leak…before you judge the song based off a 30 sec snippet?!! Kiii….beyonce gave u c**** 3 words and you girls are having aneurysms and strokes! That Beyonce power!
This is cute.
That picture of her is just stunning though. And I’ll judge the song when I hear it in full. Sounds decent though.
STILL NO SINGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great! I didn’t like the beginning though WTF is Andre doing (even though I love him). Amy version will always be her version and will be known for the way she sings it. Beyonce is clearly not trying to be like Amy
I love Andre’s part
I wanna watch this movie too
The only part I didn’t like was when they harmonised on the ‘I died 100 times’ LOL. The rest sounds decent though. Kudos guys.
But I though Andre wasn’t signed to a record label?
liked andre’s part but overall its a fail….boooooo
I love it
You’ll love anything with a d*** in a blond lace front.
Beyonce should have never tried to sing this song and andre.. they gone and f***** t up seriously. Amy winehouse father hates it and wants royalties for using it. They should have used the original song or changed it up.
Thank god christina didnt sing it….no one would ever hear it! Kiiiiiiiiiiii
Very sultry. I am feeling it. I wonder if half the people spewing negativity on here even own an Amy Winehouse album? I damn sure know I do (first two). And can still like this song for a different reason.
I feel like Beyoncé is really testing the waters artistically this era to see what suits her and what she likes and doesnt. That’s why people are confused by what shes doing. Shes always been so safe and perfect with her music (which has worked in all fairness) but nows the time shes thinking let me just go for it.
I agree
I actually really like it…i find it hilarious that the salvation army are the first to watch and commenting more than the stans kiiiii u bxtches are something else literally! Kiiiii
Flop h** your faves a flop h** now deal.
I like how a rihject stan feels they have credibility to claim something as a “mess” kiiiii u just read yourself…bxtch your st andards are to low to judge anything beyonce has slayed…a dam snippet…get yo life bxtch kiii
Some of you peasants didnt even know who Amy Winehouse was until the legendary Beyonce decided to cover her song! Now all you s**** wanna jump on the Miss Winehouse bandwagon kiiiiiiiiii fools these days…im not buying these lies one bit
LUV IT! LUV IT! LUV IT! KING B NEVER DISAPPOINTS! LMFAO @ Mimi Carey. So b**** KING B has been an disappointment. H** sit yo ass down n the PITTS OF HELL! Mariah has been the disappointment for the last 5 years. Flop albums and flop songs. Gurl bye. And @ Kim K stan. So KING B is an basic b****? Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Says a Kim K stan. KING B didn’t blow up from getting fu*cked n her ear and nose from a flop lmao. The word basic = Kim K. B**** go suck that c** up Kim left on those sheets. And the Rihoeanna stans. Lmmfao. U delusional C*nts lmao. Hoeianna will never have anything critical acclaim. Her critical accalaim comes from p*** critics. For patten her infested c****** on stage. Cause that’s the only did she does better than anyone. Even pornstars looks up to her.
A modern twist on a vintage sounding classic. I personally love the way Beyonces voice sounds on this. Obviously its not going to top Amy, that wasn’t her intention.
Amy’s dad? Are we talking about the same man who was trying to make a profit off his daughter’ s death?? Kii the foolery…the only thing he’s upset about is not being able to see a single coin from this cover… Sit!
What? Are you supposed to be responding to me?
I love Andre 3000, but WTF!
His part is sucked balls, Bey’s part sounded nice and smooth, but I’m not happy with them covering this song simply because it has so much depth to it and I feel like Bey, Jay and Andre are only covering it for controversy, when they could have simply remixed it for the movie.
P.S: Amy’s Dad wasn’t happy when he heard about the cover… WELP!
This fat hog doesn’t have an ounce of originality. She’s a r*****
What b****? @ Super Ciflop. B**** ur fav is buried 6 feet under. There is no coming bac. Please join her c*nt. #GOODDAY
lol mad cuz your fave is gettin DRAGGED
I like it. I just separate it from the original because its not supposed to be like that. People will always complain about something not being as good as the original when it comes to covers.
Leave it to beyfatce to ruin a good song smh wheres the emotion.No where to be found kind of like that single.
Leave it to u Rihc*nts who doesn’t have an life. To check for THE QUEEN 24/7.
lol b**** i just got out of work I’m not an unemployed phaggot with no life who sits on tgj and refreshes the page till beywhalece is brought up on a new post. Have your seat.
And its who dont not who doesn’t.Learn some proper grammar before you try to shade anyone boo.
I love it! Some of you all need to get a new speaker system or something. This is strangely unique.
Bwahahahahahaahaha No this f** didn’t. U are the one who can’t make up an proper sentence, talking about “and its not who don’t doesn’t”. WTF? B**** what is that lmfaoooooooo. I think I hear ur short bus blowing outside. Hurry up h** and catch it. No life bitter c*nt. And that’s right. Ur ratchet no life ass follow the QUEEN’S EVERY MOVE! #GOODBYE F**

how’s 😉
Why the hate tho? Why cant most of y’all fools have a constructive critiscm instead of hating cos all i see is low life whose opinion holds no weight hating, now amy is a legend just to discredit bey so stupid we have piguleire, mimi fans, riri (that just a joke) and other b****** hating fools.
LOL Rihanna stans talking about vocals is a kiiii in itself. Anyway this aint bad. Nice work. No need to over analyse everything.
F** BOI please go and play with ur man’s asshole. U aren’t even on my level. Ur ass is delusiona ass f*ck and can’t spell or make up an decent sentence. Chile ur life is an Epic Worthless piece of s***. Lmaooooo I don’t need THE HIVE, to draggggggggggggggggg the h***** out ur ass.
Lmfao @ this F** talkin about his raggedy ass just got off work. Yeah from trolling TGJ 24/7 waiting on THE QUEEN stories. U deserve an BIG FAT SIT YO LYING ASS DOWN SOMEWHERE! Majority of Hoeianna satns don’t have an life and their jobs are trolling. U b****** are beyond pathetic. The s*** that comes out my ass >>>>>>>>> rinotking/nor queen and the rest of the Rihc*nts.
mess, Andre 3000 part is so unnecessary and Beyonce lacks the soul and emotional depth in her voice to pull this song off. Xtina would of done a better job.
I don’t think Andre was feeling this one.
Well I like it. Beyonce wasn’t tryna make it all deep and depressing like Amy did which I love. She did her own lil thang on it which was fine. Theres nothing wrong with it.
And Xtina girl no. Her emotion is so forced, that would not have been nice at all. The softness in Beyonces is voice cool for this version.
B**** ur comments are INVALID!
That picture is beautiful also.
Mitch Winehouse tweeted he ‘Likes Beyonces cover and has no problem with it’ That other report was fake.
He even went on to say ‘she can do another cover if she wants’
I find it quite surprising that all these random Amy Winehouse fans came out of nowhere once Beyonce decided to do a cover of the song. I guess….cough cough sit down.
I think that Beyonce did the job well in re-imagining the original vocal and production story of Back to Black (one of my favorite Winehouse songs). Andre…was cute…but he can still have a seat with the over-production.
ROTFL HAHAHAH this f** digger bey thinks just because he says the word f***** its gonna make him straight BAHAHA.And he’s STILL talking about me b**** stfu.We all KNOW YOUR A GUY and then you claim that I’m the gay one with no life yet your phaggot ass is either the first or second person to comment on anything tgj post .Gurl plz stop making a damn fool of yourself you dont fool anyone FAGASS BISHH.your more worthless my s*** smh .Go take care of that s** you have for sucking too many d****.LMFAOO i bet every time your mother looks at you she thinks to herself DAMN should’ve swallowed LOOOOOL.Oh and yes b**** i do go to work I’m not some ghetto bitter dumb no life c*nt who has nothing to live for like yourself….
GET YO LIFE oops typo GET A LIFE.
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
AND HER FATHER DO AS WELL
SHE SOUNDS AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
