R&B starlet Melanie Fiona has joined a growing number of stars who have paid tribute to late British soul singer Amy Winehouse:
“Today, it’s all I can do to express my gratitude to one of my favorite artists. May your music live on to inspire others, as it has inspired me. R.I.P. AMY WINEHOUSE. xo.”
See the singer’s stirring rendition of “Wake Up Alone”, lifted from Winehouse’s famed Back to Black album after the jump:
Love it.
Wow. Those lyrics are too real.
One of my favorite on “Back to black” album. Melanie’s version is touching but Amy’s version is just unique and deep.
THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAV ON THAT ALBUM. THE LYRICS ARE SO DEEP AND TRUE TO HEART.
Wow…Never paid attn to Melanie till i saw this,
LOVE YOU AMY
That was really nice. Melanie has a beautiful voice & she did Amy justice.
All these tribute pouring in now. If only Amy could see how much she was loved. So sad.
RIP Amy
Yessss Mel You Did Goog But Was Hoping You Would Do Velerie

Melanie sounds great, but I’m inclined to like Amy’s version better. Amy possessed such a gut renching saddness on this record that Melanie can’t deliver.
wow i did manage to focus on the song altho Melanie made it hard by me being struck by how beautiful she is. But i so love Amy and her cd i was jus waiting for her next one. It is Sad that she couldnt enjoy ppl doing things like this for her while she was here. My heart goes out to her family and Melanie… if i could jus spend a day with u and we jus sing together i would b the happiest 27 year old on earth lol. But id tell anybody who is n hearing distance of my voice that i had a date with you even tho it wasnt lmao Loved that song love u love Amy(R.I.P)
I loved it and her voice is amazing.
