My favorite singer with one of my all-time favorite bands. Loved The Specials. Loved Amy. Now Terry and Amy can do this duet together again. RIP two of my favories. 😥
I NEVER knew they shared a stage. This video warms my heart. Amy and The Specials having fun and making people happy... So great. Rest in peace, sweer child...
No they PLAYED some of the best tunes ever, with rare exception everything they did but a couple songs were note for note recreations of Jamaican Artistes work a decade or so after the originals came out. A lot of the two tone bands did this, but the Specials were (in my opinion) the least creative. Madness, the Beat and the Selector all did a better job, and brought more of themselves into their music. If you listen to Dandy's recording of a message to you rudy, it is literally note for note replayed by the specials, slightly faster, and with inferior vocals. I found that record when I was 17, and a Prince Buster best of CD from Japan, and I never looked back at the Specials, they were a poor copy of the real thing, the minute you heard the real sh&t, you realized they were no match. I thank them for opening the way to the real thing, but aside from maybe 2 songs, they didn't add anything to the genre, aside from introducing some kids to things they hadn't heard. Really great design for their records and label though. Two Tone was brilliant.
@@gilbatzri i lived and saw the specials they came over to my roommates home often i am from san diego and i am sorry to tell you but the specials were that Special brought that sound to town i love the beat too ...that ska then mod era its all priceless
V Festival Hylands Park Chelmsford 2010 I think. Amy wasn't on the card that year but she came along to watch her favourite acts including the Specials who coaxed her out from the side of the stage to join them. An amazing bonus for those of us lucky enough to be there. A really great show.
Mrs H..RIP both Amy & Terry....Bless you both..I guess GOD needed you both more than the people of the earth did.. RIP to you both & Thank You both for the music ...Love ya's RIP. ❤🎶
Lovely to see a low key performance from Amy not stealing the show. What humility and she knows when she is in the presence of other icons, sad losses Amy and Brad. Of course
I come back to this every now and then. Love watching Amy enjoying herself, so in the moment, playing around with the vocals and improvising without trying to steal the limelight. A true legend ❤
Well said David,I am a recovering heroin addict and too many times I've had bad looks from people who know this,I've lost many friends to drugs, and alcohol I'd be out of the drug scene up here in Scotland,one am twenty months clean and going strong,rip Amy.
Fairplay bruv! I'm 33yrs a heroin addict & fingers crossed I'm knocking it on the head this new year 2023! Im completely drained, ive had enough at last! I've wasted so many yrs to it, I never thought I'd be a 50yr old H addict! 💯
Haven't words, she is unique and unforgettable, is very hard to me explain my feelings, is a mixture of sadness and gratitude, thank you dear angel for brought a lot happiness to my life.
I do play bass and I can confirm. It's not just the licks he creates, it's also how he plays them. There's a certain smoothness in his technique, even when things get fast or hard on your fingers.
+David Bates I am one of them. she revived something people thought was not sellable: swing and standards. also remember al the youtube videos of her taking bumps onstage?
Ian Bensosn Ian ime an addict to and ime in recovery i hate DRUG DEALERS but? i used to love getting wired and doped its a PARADOX i think with all the £MONEY she made dealers sucked the life out of her and no one seemed to help her BUT like all STARS they live for ever HENDRIX MORRISON THIN LIZZY to name a few
Terry Hall.....one of the most iconic lead singers this country has produced. A gifted song writer and front man for an iconic and unique group. Irreplaceable.
Wow never new they played together..priceless...both were too young 😭😭😭😭their music will always live on representing them. I never saw Amy live but luckily saw the specials way back at Majestic Ventura Theater 😎best show ever!!!! RIP Terry Hall 🙏 much love ❤
This video is fast becoming a historical account of a very special lady who had such a unique voice. What a band this would have been...... Fantastic video.
Terry hall forever genius. Gave me hope & joy. Never underestimate historical significance of Terry Hall. His peace his love his lyrics music & again his genius❤

RIP Terry. At 55 years, I still wear a Fred Perry Cardigan. Proper music that brought people of any colour together. No more to be said. xxx
Terry was 63 when he passed away.

It's in the blood 😎

I'm 57 and sitting here in 10 hole cherry reds. So sad one of my teen heroes is gone. But so happy to have had him on earth at all.
She loved The specials, she was in her element , bless her .

@@albertosaenz9994 I hear ya...
GOD TRAVEL WITH HER TO THE LIGHT😎
Rest in Peace Terry Hall
This performance with Amy Whitehouse epitomises what The Specials were all about !
Definitely what the Specials were about but Amy Winehouse epitomised nothing but drunkenness in this clip. Such a shame.
My very first gig as a very young teenager, The Specials in my home town Cardiff. RIP both legends.
I NEVER knew they shared a stage. This video warms my heart. Amy and The Specials having fun and making people happy... So great. Rest in peace, sweer child...
R.I.P Amy and Terry, time to make music in Heaven.
Do not underestimate the influence Terry Hall RIP and the Specials have had on Music, Society and for everyone born after 1957 - Massive loss
blue i like your comment ,,,i will alwats love Terry hes given me great joy over the decades ,, it will be a ghost town with out him x lol Jane x
All my heroes dropping. Feeling so old tonight. Lucky to have all these recorded memories so easily to hand.
Favourite band and favourite singer too...memories of time spent in my youth watching this band in Coventry
OMG, She was so bloody Special with the Specials, favourite band favourite Singer a one off.
Love from 🇬🇧.
I won't be the only one playing the music of The Specials tonight. RIP Terry Hall
The Specials created some of the best tunes ever ... god I miss those days.
Most of them were remakes but it brought the sounds of Ska to a whole new generation.
Itslike with some of em the Specials brought those tunes back in the publics ear. Search for Andy & Joey's original !

Beautiful.
Can’t believe it’s been 10 years.
Who else got goosebumps 👌🏼🙂
Epic!❤ 😭

I'm 57 and to me the best thing England produced in my life time.
So sad
I’m 58 mate feeling it too
How much confidence does Amy have performing with these guys? So beautiful to see the generations creating perfection 🥲
Ghost Town is on of the greatest tracks ever. I'm in awe of anyone who can create songs like that.
Absolutely brilliant may Terry,John Brad Bradbury and Rico Rodriguez and Amy winehouse rest in peace 🙏🙏😞👍
Mrs H..RIP both Amy & Terry....Bless you both..I guess GOD needed you both more than the people of the earth did.. RIP to you both & Thank You both for the music ...Love ya's RIP. ❤🎶

@@leeheaps2458
You are most welcome !
XOXOX
My thoughts exactly!!
Here in 2019..Just to hear her voice again👍🏻..still sadly missed.
The music of Amy Winehouse and John "Brad" Bradford will always be enjoyed.
Same, god I wish I'd gone to see her live ......
So many good people gone, so sadly miss all of you xoxo
2020
2021 and for ever 🔥
Thanx Amy ♥️
What a combination! The Specials and Amy Winehouse. Perfection. RIP
R.I.P Terry Hall...jamming with Amy again ❤️
Lovely to see a low key performance from Amy not stealing the show. What humility and she knows when she is in the presence of other icons, sad losses Amy and Brad. Of course
Agreed. At first I thought they were crowding her. Decided it looks like a good time was had by all.
I thought the very same as I couldn’t take my eyes off Amy who could but the way she blends is 💔
@@ThePhlashy she was on great form that day, chatty and friendly. No sign of what was to come.
Ojb 1959 She was completely sober here, just a little shy
Yeah I hear ya bang on with that mate and your amd your a Harris
Grew up with The Specials great times 👍
This is incredible two gifted voices on one stage
I come back to this every now and then.
Love watching Amy enjoying herself, so in the moment, playing around with the vocals and improvising without trying to steal the limelight. A true legend ❤
what an incredibly mind-blowing combination of artists
Great sounds. 2009 doesn't seem so long ago, and both were in fine form. RIP Amy & Terry
Well said David,I am a recovering heroin addict and too many times I've had bad looks from people who know this,I've lost many friends to drugs, and alcohol I'd be out of the drug scene up here in Scotland,one am twenty months clean and going strong,rip Amy.

Sending you thoughts from afar. KiaOra from New Zealand. I hope you are doing well on your journey.

I've loved The Specials since the 80s - I still do - and Amy Winehouse was wonderful 💖
If anybody deserved to be on stage with The Specials it was Amy Winehouse :)
52 people died in a fire in a concert in 1981 in Dublin the specials done a free gig the following week they played the week before in the stardust
2tonefootage charoo
Alice cooper
I think it should have been Brian Johnson :D
you mean ''If anybody deserved to be on stage with Amy Winehouse it were The Specials '' ??
Fantastic Amy and the Specials,this is how i want to remember her, looking happy. R.I.P. Amy.
M j I
Amy, the last great one.
Me too x
Gone Gone - but the music will live forever......
Now together again on the other side....R.i.P. Terry
I'm wondering if Amy & Terry are tearing up heaven with this epic collaboration ❤️
Sure!
They will be Deffo bro God in his 2tone suit❤
Haven't words, she is unique and unforgettable, is very hard to me explain my feelings, is a mixture of sadness and gratitude, thank you dear angel for brought a lot happiness to my life.
❤
How nice to remember her looking healthy and to see them all rocking like that. Well done, all of you, for that moment in the sunshine. Much love x
Someone mentioned earlier about how good an album with Amy and the Specials would have been and, after watching this, I agree.
There is I’m sure. Amy wine house ska ep
@@PinkSmarties72 It is a bootleg using music stolen from different TV performances. Good luck finding a copy as they change hands for over £300.
@@rearly62 really? I bought about 5 copies with different coloured vinyl when it came out, will have to investigate & dig a few of them out!!!
Fabulous ❤️ RIP both Amy and now Terry 😢 but will always live on your music.🎶🎼♥️
The bass player deserves a medal
Reggae music sits a lot on the bass line and this guy does it proper
I do play bass and I can confirm. It's not just the licks he creates, it's also how he plays them. There's a certain smoothness in his technique, even when things get fast or hard on your fingers.
LOVE The Specials. Loved Amy. r.i.p terry hall🥺🥺🥺
Sad news , legends both of them RIP
Blasting out on my balcony , having a sing along , thanks for the music .
